AppTrap Changelog

What's new in AppTrap 1.2.3

Jan 2, 2016
  • Background Process Changes:
  • Fixed a memory leak that would occur when AppTrap would search the trash folder. The solution involves restarting the background process when your Mac wakes from sleep. This is currently a stopgap measure while I implement a new design that fixes the problem.

New in AppTrap 1.2.2 (Apr 22, 2014)

  • Preference Pane Changes - Fixed the documentation's uninstallation instructions to use the new preference file names.

New in AppTrap 1.2.1 (Dec 6, 2013)

  • Background Process Changes:
  • Fixed a critical bug where the move-to-trash dialog would not appear for users of the non-English localizations.

New in AppTrap 1.2 (Dec 5, 2013)

  • General:
  • Important: This version of AppTrap no longer supports OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard or OS X 10.7 Lion. AppTrap now requires OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion or OS X 10.9 Mavericks.
  • Both the preference pane and the background process have been signed with a Developer ID. This makes AppTrap play nice with Gatekeeper.
  • Mavericks ready.
  • Background Process Changes:
  • Rewritten background process that takes full advantage of modern OS X technologies.
  • AppTrap is now much faster, particularly on older, slower Macs.
  • AppTrap is now better at finding files for sandboxed apps.
