Parall v2.4.4

macOS 27 support, a larger Web App catalogue, and major launcher reliability and compatibility improvements

What’s New in v2.4.4

  • Added support for macOS 27 Golden Gate.
  • Added support for Todoist, Haivision Play ISR, ViennaRSS, and Orca.
  • Added 32 Web App catalogue entries, including Proton Pass, Bitwarden, Proton Drive, TickTick, Standard Notes, and Pocket Casts.
  • Removed delays when opening browser pages through URL clicks or the Open With menu.
  • Fixed minimized apps failing to restore and come to the front when opened through Spotlight, Raycast, or Alfred.
  • Reworked native app launching to preserve the shortcut’s process identity and improve compatibility.
  • Improved compatibility with Little Snitch, third-party Dock apps, and Command-Tab app switchers.
  • Improved monitoring and cleanup of helper and replacement processes.
  • Fixed premature data cleanup when reopening shortcuts or running overlapping instances.
  • Fixed launch failures that could leave shortcuts bouncing in the Dock without an explanation.
  • Improved early-exit dialogs with captured app output and clearer errors for missing app executables.
  • Prevented false early-exit dialogs for command-line passthrough, including New Window and New Private Window commands.
  • Fixed Command-Q and Dock Quit while launcher error dialogs are open.

Existing shortcuts must be edited or regenerated to receive the launcher improvements.
