Didn't consider that yet, but I can test if it is working and then just enable it. 👍 Thank you for the idea. :-)

My favorite would be to have a UI that is really done for macOS, but it seems it's a rather big update to make common components working with all OS.

Sorry for the late response. In the meantime BookmarkCompanion for iPad should also be available for macOS. I hope you can download it without buying it again. If this is the case, please let me know and I will check that this is not needed.

gingerbeardman commented 1 year ago

All good, it showed as previously download and installed with a single click.

Cheers!

Ah, spoke too soon.

I clicked the blue button and it installed an earlier release, Version 1.4.0 (2) But that is not showing any bookmarks, though it does list my tags so I know I am logged in.

I'm running macOS 12.6.6

Ah dang, 1.4.0 was the last version that was built with iOS 15 compatibility. With 1.5.0 the minimum API version was increased to iOS 16 to start using some newer APIs, so maybe that's the case it is not downloadable for macOS 12. I'll look into it if I am able to solve this.

(Maybe creating a separate macOS UI is a more clean way of providing compatibility with more versions. But I never did that yet.)

Don't worry too much, I'll be upgrading to Sonoma in the fall.

But bespoke Mac UI is a great idea.
