Release notes

What changed in each release. Tellshot updates itself via the built-in updater — it checks automatically and always asks before installing.

0.5.1

Latest

Mendaco is now Tellshot — new name, new icon, and DMG distribution.

  • Rebranded from Mendaco to Tellshot: new name, new icon, new app identity.
  • Distribution switched to a DMG disk image, which installs reliably regardless of which browser you download with.
  • Fixed: onboarding now resumes correctly after the “quit and reopen” step of granting Screen Recording permission.

Coming from Mendaco? Auto-update can't cross the rename — download the DMG once and drag Tellshot.app into Applications. Your templates and history carry over automatically, and macOS asks for Screen Recording permission once more.

0.5.0

First Tellshot-branded release.

  • Replaced by 0.5.1 shortly after publishing, due to an onboarding bug found in QA.

0.4.0

as Mendaco

Review documents: from single screenshots to a multi-page deliverable.

  • Review documents: keep capturing, collect screenshots into one fix-request document, reorder and edit pages, and export as PDF or PowerPoint (.pptx).
  • Screen-recording permission self-healing: clearer guidance when permission is denied, with a single path to re-request and open System Settings.
  • Hands-on onboarding: a tutorial driven by actually pressing the shortcuts, plus a progress card inside the editor.
  • Skipping onboarding no longer loses progress — resume any time from “How to Use…” in the menu.

0.3.0

as Mendaco

First beta build, with auto-updates.

  • Import images from a file or the clipboard and annotate them like any capture.
  • Crop tool in the editor.
  • Smoother two-step copy for apps that can't take image + text in one paste.
  • Optional, anonymous crash reports (off in Settings any time).
  • Automatic updates via Sparkle — this build was the first distributed through the update feed.

Earlier versions (0.1–0.2) were internal builds and were never distributed.
