1.3.0 — 2026-06-11

Added

  • Setup now performs instead of explains. The first onboarding step has a "Poke the menace" button: the real bubble rides your real cursor, the real voice talks, and at full escalation the real teleport iris closes over your screen — then drops you straight back into setup with a smug remark. What you see during setup is exactly what you bought.
  • Pick your Menace Level during setup. Quiet, Loud, or Redirect Only is now chosen right where you can audition it — flip it and poke again to hear the difference. (It's the same setting Settings calls Menace Level now too.)
  • The agent reacts while you set it up. Grant Accessibility or pass the browser check and the bubble pops up to acknowledge it. Finish setup and it invites you to test it — or hit Start + provoke me to open your first blocked site and get heckled for real, immediately.
  • The whole app looks like Stop That now. Onboarding, License, Settings, and Focus Session windows carry the landing page's ink-and-acid look, with proper headers and the same voice everywhere.
  • Small comforts: the license window pastes a key it finds on your clipboard for you, Settings has a speaker button to audition a line at your chosen volume, and the menu admits "Paused. Enjoy your little break." while panic-paused.

Fixed

  • The panic hotkey now silences setup rehearsals instantly too — voice, bubble, and screen-dim all cut off the moment you press it.
  • Clicking away from setup and coming back no longer restarts it from step one.
  • Cleaned up typos and stray punctuation across the agent's spoken-line captions.

1.2.0 — 2026-06-11

Added

  • Stop That keeps itself up to date now. The app quietly checks once a day for new versions and shows you what's new — one click installs it and you're back in seconds. No more re-downloading from the website. This is the last version you'll ever have to install by hand.
  • It also knows when to keep its mouth shut: an update will never interrupt a Focus Session or a teleport. The offer waits until you're done.
  • Check for Updates… in the menu bar shows your current version and lets you check on demand.

1.1.0 — 2026-06-11

Added

  • The agent has a face now. The bubble's chip is an animated eye that acts out the escalation: it wakes up drowsily when you open something blocked, startles wide at the warning, simmers into a red seething glare as the teleport nears, and beams a proud green blink when you land somewhere good. It blinks on its own, its pupil follows your cursor movement, and it visibly "does the talking" while a voice line plays — glow and pupil pulse with the live audio level.
  • Iris-wipe teleport. Teleport to Work now darkens the screen from the edges into a soft circle over five seconds, blinks shut, and lands you in your productive app. Click anywhere on it to skip ahead instantly.
  • Teleport always pulls you out. With no redirect target configured, the teleport now picks a random running good app instead of silently giving up.
  • Talk overlay. While a voice line plays in Loud mode, the screen gently dims (on the display your mouse is on) and fades back when the line ends. Toggleable in Settings; never blocks clicks or typing.

Fixed

  • The macOS Automation consent prompt now appears reliably: the app sends the real Apple Event instead of a permission probe that could cache a denial and block the prompt forever. The denied-permission alert now also suggests restarting/updating the browser, which forces macOS to re-check.
  • The bubble now sits snug against the cursor instead of ~40pt away (its invisible shadow margin was offsetting the position), and it can hug screen edges properly.
  • The screen-dim overlay honors the system Reduce Motion setting and multi-monitor setups.
  • The teleport can no longer fire twice when a skip click races the timer.
