    • Stops creating replacement Cloudflare Quick Tunnel links during slow readiness checks.
    • Shows a clear temporary rate-limit message when Cloudflare refuses new setup links.
    • Publishes the QR code after Cloudflare DNS is ready so iOS has a stable secure-link URL to open.

    • Accepts IPv6-only Cloudflare DNS answers before moving to the final secure-link readiness check.

    Updates in 1.2.4 build 22

    • Shows the Remote Access QR setup link after a short wait if tunnel readiness probes keep failing, so the panel does not stay stuck on Creating secure link.
    • Brings Sparkle update windows to the front instead of leaving them behind other windows.
    • Keeps the Remote Access setup window open while Cloudflare DNS prepares the public tunnel hostname.
    • Waits until the public Remote Access tunnel passes a WebSocket readiness check before showing the QR code.
    • Keeps iOS remote reconnect attempts going until monitor info arrives instead of stopping after pairing.
    • Keeps the Mac pairing code stable after a successful Remote Access connection, unless the user regenerates it or resets trusted devices.
    • Updates the Mac Remote Access prompts so iPhone users know the first successful scan can be saved for next time.
    • Shows the Remote Access connect window immediately, with a loading state while the secure QR setup link is being prepared.
    • Simplifies the Remote Access warning so it explains when to use Remote Access without technical tunnel wording.
    • Fixes the Remote Access QR connect window so the QR code, setup text, pairing code, and buttons are fully visible.
    • Adds a Mac Remote Access QR code that includes the active tunnel URL and pairing code.
    • Bundles the Cloudflare tunnel helper with AirDesk so users do not need to install Homebrew or cloudflared separately.
    • Supports the iOS QR scanner flow for one-scan Remote Access setup.
    • Tunes Mac-side scroll speed so iOS gestures stay responsive without jumping too far.
    • Restores the installer cleanup reminder after updates and puts Move to Trash directly in the dialog.
    • Retries installer cleanup detection after launch so permission prompts do not suppress the reminder.
    • Improves per-display stream recovery when a client socket becomes temporarily backlogged.
    • Reduces expensive fallback captures by reusing the latest ScreenCaptureKit pixel buffer when possible.
    • Improves Mac-side scroll injection so small iOS scroll steps map to visible line scrolling.
    • Reduces scroll flicker by avoiding repeated fallback snapshot frames while the normal screen stream is already delivering updates.
    • Reduces visual delay while scrolling by sending low-latency repaint frames instead of waiting for a forced keyframe.
    • Restarts Mac screen capture streams when a display stream stops, suspends, or reports an error.
    • Improves H.264 keyframe detection so reconnects and monitor switches do not reuse invalid recovery frames.
    • Adds iOS decoder recovery and Metal redraw retries when a frame stalls after scroll or display changes.
