Desktop

The first big desktop release after launch.

What's new

  • The desktop app updates itself.
  • Built on a current, supported Electron.
  • Automatic updates: Dock checks for a new version when it starts and every 6 hours, downloads it in the background and asks you to restart.

Improved

  • Windows installer (.exe) and Linux AppImage, both with automatic updates.

Security

  • Rebuilt on Electron 44 (supported, current Chromium security fixes); Electron 33 is end of life.
  • The app only opens dock.bobwork.ai; links elsewhere open in your browser after a check, and camera, microphone, screen sharing and notifications are granted to Dock only.
