Hide every card at once and bring them all back, cards that stay put when you switch desktops, and new card colors. Your cards also come back after a restart, cards stacked in a corner fan out when you point at them, and buttons show what they do when you hover over them.
Hide and show all your cards at once from the menu bar, or with ⌃⌥V from anywhere. Docked cards slip in behind their edge, and a new capture brings everything back.
Cards stay put when you switch desktops or go into a full-screen app, instead of sliding away with the old desktop and popping back in.
Cards you had open come back when Obry starts again, docked ones included: they slide out from their edge one after another and tuck back in. You can turn this off in Settings with Reopen cards after restart.
New card colors: a classic sticky-note yellow, now the default, a redder blush and a lighter sand, with black text easy to read on every one.
Hover over a card’s button or the formatting toolbar to see what it does and its shortcut, like Bold ⌘B. The opacity dots and text styles have hints too.
Cards docked in the same corner fan out when you point at them, so you can pick the one you want.
Right-click anywhere on a card’s top bar to open its menu. The formatting toolbar moves out of the way of menus.
Open image on a text card brings its screenshot forward; if it’s already open, it pulses so you can spot it.
Settings shows the version you have, with a link to this changelog, and opened again it comes to the desktop you’re on.
While editing, a click anywhere in a card, margins included, puts the cursor there, and the card’s edges resize again. Paste as plain text undoes in one step.
Web, email, phone and message links open straight away; any other kind of link asks first. A link typed with a path, like github.com/a/b, now opens.
Recents: a deleted card stays deleted, a text capture and its screenshot are kept or removed together, card outlines show on dark desktops, and a card dragged back in shrinks into its place.
With the desktop shown, a card docked under the menu bar tucks away with the windows instead of bouncing.
The capture sound plays right away after a short break, the capture-mode switch follows your Mac’s scroll direction, and the Apple Notes permission prompt now says Obry.
Update 1.0.11
Closes a way to extend the free trial by editing locally stored dates, and hardens how the trial is tracked. Please update.
The days left can no longer go above 14, whatever the stored dates say.
Deleting Obry’s settings or its Application Support folder no longer starts a new trial.
Turning your Mac’s clock back no longer gains trial days.
Update 1.0.10
Obry no longer goes online to show website icons for links, so everything you capture stays on your Mac.
Links in cards show Obry’s own link icon (an envelope for email links) instead of each site’s icon, which was fetched from Google and sent it the link’s domain.
The signed update check is now the only network request Obry makes.
Update 1.0.9
Obry now behaves properly with more than one display, and throws feel more physical.
A card thrown upward no longer hides under the menu bar.
Cards stay visible while another display runs an app full screen.
A throw toward a neighbouring display lands on its far edge.
Longer throws take a little longer to fly, so you can follow a card across displays, and land with a softer bounce.
A sharp flick flies faster than a gentle throw.
In Recents, both cards of a row stay level, and the delete button keeps working when you click it several times in a row.
Update 1.0.8
Scroll Capture comes out cleaner and runs about twice as fast.
Sticky bars show once instead of repeating at every seam, translucent bars and bars that appear mid-scroll included.
The pointer moves to the edge of the selection while capturing, so whatever it was hovering, like a video’s Unmute button, no longer repeats down the capture.
Pages scroll about twice as fast during a capture.
Update 1.0.7
A new look for Recents, and shortcuts that work on every keyboard layout.
Recents sits on a blur that ramps in from the left, with no dark wash behind it.
Titles, the scrollbar and card outlines switch between light and dark to stay readable over whatever is behind.
Rows stay aligned all the way down the list, and day titles sit smaller and closer to their cards.
Scroll Capture is now Control+Option+S and Recents is Control+Option+H, since Option+S and Option+H type characters on other keyboard layouts.
Update 1.0.6
Recents scrolls more smoothly.
Recents no longer gets stuck half slid to the right while you scroll.
Click or drag the Recents scrollbar to jump.
On a translucent card, the Locked label shows at full strength while you hover it.
Update 1.0.5
Recents is grouped by day, and a thrown card lands where you aim it.
Recents groups cards by the day they were captured, newest first: Today, Yesterday, then dates.
Pinned cards have their own group at the top.
A card thrown straight at an edge lands where it was aimed instead of jumping into the nearest corner.
Corners still catch diagonal throws, and cards that would run off the end of an edge.
Update 1.0.4
Fixes for the first things people ran into.
Obry’s menu bar icon stays visible even when the menu bar is full, for example beside a notch.
The Recents title is no longer cut off by the menu bar.
Click a locked card’s Locked label to unlock it. The padlock opens with a small animation, and the first time you lock a card a tip explains how.
After unlocking, the card’s controls come back right away.
New cards are Obry yellow by default; you can switch to Automatic in Settings.
Update 1.0.3
Closed cards stay closed.
Fixes a card that could reappear right after being closed, often on a full-screen app’s Space, and then couldn’t be clicked or closed.
Cards now disappear instantly when you close them.
If a closed card is ever left on screen, Obry finds it and removes it.
Update 1.0.2
Captured text keeps its paragraphs.
A paragraph that wraps over several lines stays one paragraph instead of breaking at every line, in photos of printed pages and in other languages too.
Lines that really are separate, like code, stay separate.
Update 1.0.1
Fixes a card that could come back after being closed.
A card closed right after a capture could return to the screen, unclickable and impossible to remove. It now stays closed, including one reopened from Recents and closed again.
Update 1.0.0
The first release of Obry.
Capture any part of the screen, or snap to a window, with Option+Tab. Text in the capture is recognised on your Mac.
Cards float above your windows. Throw one at any screen edge with a two-finger swipe to dock it, then click or drag to bring it back.
Shake a card to turn it into a file you can drop into Finder, Mail or any app.
Scroll Capture takes pages longer than one screen in a single shot.
Write on any card, with lists, checklists, links and a built-in calculator.
Lock and fade cards, find past captures in Recents, and keep text cards in sync with Apple Notes.
