Lagos
Changelog
A record of every Lagos release — pulled directly from GitHub Releases.
-
- **Fix Gatekeeper "developer cannot be verified"** — DMG is now code-signed with Developer ID so browsers like Brave no longer trigger Gatekeeper warnings
- **Fix AVFAudio error 35 during onboarding** — Voice processing now gracefully falls back when hardware is incompatible, so recording always works
- **Beta/Stable update channels** — Join Beta Program toggle in Settings > Updates. Beta users get releases first; stable users get promoted releases only
- **Structured diagnostics in feedback** — Bug reports now include detailed system, audio, and app state info for faster debugging
-
- **Disable Turbo model** — Turbo WhisperKit model caused system lockups on some machines. Greyed out with "Coming Soon: In Validation" while we investigate. Users previously on Turbo are automatically switched to Standard.
