Portmaster v1.4
Mirror, mirror on the wall, unveil trends, both big and small.
The Dashboard is the new front door to Portmaster
From the start we knew that a control center type view will be important in the future. The network monitor is super exciting but when the best tutorials for Portmaster out there tell new users to basically ignore it for the beginning, we know, that this is not the best start into Portmaster.
The goal with the dashboard is to bring a quick overview to help new users understand what is going on in Portmaster and veteran users what is happening on their machines. I feel like this update is a great start into this direction.
Feature Overview and Toggles
Portmaster is packed with different features, and more are to come! An overview of which features are active was needed. For now it’s mostly the Network History and SPN toggle, but it will come in handy in the future.
Beta Features on the Dashboard
We included some beta features into this stable release. Beta because there can still be bugs, we included them anyway because those features can’t break anything. We wanted to give everyone a more complete vision of where we see the dashboard going. Feedback is always welcome!
Other Changes
The complete list of technical changes can always be found in Portmaster’s GitHub Releases.
