WhatPulse 5.2 is Here: New Features, Improvements, and More

· 2 min read

There are significant improvements in application handling. Previously, it was possible for applications not to appear on your computer profiles online, but this issue has been resolved. Additionally, the %TodayUptime% has been added to the stats available in the Geek Window, representing today’s uptime.

Other improvements include automatic sizing of the Geek Window, allowing for it to be made smaller, and automatic online database backups for Premium users. Previously, backups only occurred when the client was starting up, but now, they will also be created weekly when the client is running continuously.

For users on macOS 13.1 and above, there was an issue with the WhatPulseMaintenanceTool.app being blocked from running by macOS. Unfortunately, users will need to reinstall the client to receive new updates.
