The first production install exposed moments that made sense to the system but not to a new person. Sessions could appear before sign-in even though they could not play, and the installer did not yet feel like the product it contained.
Version 1.1 focuses on that first encounter.
Signed out now looks signed out
The menu shows a clear sign-in action instead of listing local sessions that cannot be voiced yet. The hotkey and auto-play paths follow the same rule and explain the missing sign-in when invoked.
Local session discovery still stays on the Mac. The interface simply stops presenting an action that the current account state cannot complete.
Installation gets a designed handoff
The disk image now opens as a deliberate drag-to-install window with Agent Callout and Applications placed in a clear visual path.
This is a small surface that every new Mac user sees. Treating it as part of the product makes the move from download to first launch feel expected instead of improvised.
Natalie and Jude join the voice list
Two additional voices broaden the available tone without changing how voice selection works. Their previews are bundled with the app, so choosing remains immediate.
Product decision
The principle behind 1.1
A first run should tell the truth about what is ready, what needs input, and what happens next. Every polished transition reduces the amount of trust a new product has to ask for.
Production use is where those gaps become obvious, so early releases should be willing to fix them immediately.
