New: AI Activity • See which apps on your Mac connect to AI services like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot and more than 30 others. For each app you can see which services it uses, how much data it sends and receives, and when. • Apps with built-in AI features get their own section, so a familiar app can't quietly send your data to an AI service without you seeing it. Block AI one app at a time • Stop a single app from reaching an AI service while everything else keeps working, or block a service for all apps with one click. You can undo it at any time. AI Activity is free for the last 24 hours. Longer history and blocking come with Pro. Domain rules now cover more apps • PacketWarden now sees where Chrome, Edge, Brave, apps like Slack and VS Code, and command line tools are connecting. Your domain rules and block lists now apply to them too, and the Flow Journal shows real site names instead of bare IP addresses. Blocked sites stay blocked • When you have domain rules, browsers now use a regular connection instead of HTTP/3, which lets PacketWarden see and block the site. Pages load just as fast. You can turn this off in Settings. Ready for macOS 27 • PacketWarden is updated and tested for macOS 27. Improvements and fixes - If you turned protection off, it now stays off after app updates. - If you remove the network extension, it no longer comes back by itself. - When you turn the filter off in System Settings, the app now shows it correctly. - Clicking the Dock icon brings the main window back after you close it. - The menu bar no longer opens extra windows. - Guard Rules now show whether each rule covers all apps or just one. - Your history updates over time, and after upgrading to Pro your full history appears right away, without restarting the app. - Database updates are more reliable.

Your history is now yours from day one. • PacketWarden used to trim recorded history after 24 hours unless you had Pro. It doesn't anymore. Every connection your Mac makes is now recorded and kept for 30 days on every plan. Unlock Pro whenever you like and your full month of history is already there, waiting - not starting over from an empty screen. Blocking an app now covers the whole app. • Chrome, Slack, VS Code and other Electron apps do their networking from helper processes running under their own names. Blocking the app now covers those helpers too, so a block means what you expect it to mean. Protection that stays on. • If PacketWarden's saved rules can't be read at startup, it now holds your last known protection level instead of quietly letting everything through. Lockdown stays Lockdown. If a rule change fails to reach the filter, you'll see it on screen and we'll keep retrying - no more silent gaps between what the app shows and what it's enforcing. Pause that lasts as long as you asked. • "Pause until restart" used to end early when your Mac corrected its clock. Fixed. Lighter on your Mac. • Large connection histories no longer make the interface stall. Background CPU is down sharply while idle, the menu bar popover no longer wakes your Mac when it isn't open, and an 8-hour pause no longer keeps the dashboard redrawing every second. Also in this release • Traffic figures in the menu bar now match the dashboard for the same time window. Exported CSV files open correctly in Excel and Numbers, including unusual hostnames. Country lookups are more accurate on tethered connections.
