Full Changelog: v1.9.1...v1.9.2
VPN Bypass v1.9.1
Thanks to @karle0wne for contributing the Tailscale profile switch detection (#16)! 🎉
What's Changed
🐛 Bug Fixes
- Tailscale Profile Switch Detection — Routes are now automatically refreshed when switching Tailscale accounts/profiles while the VPN stays on the same
utuninterface. Previously, stale bypass routes from the old profile would persist until manual refresh. - Info Page Version Display — The About/Info page header showed a hardcoded version instead of reading from the bundle. Now uses
CFBundleShortVersionStringdynamically.
⚡ Improvements
- Tailscale CLI Performance — All Tailscale status queries now use
--self --peers=false, fetching only the local node's data instead of the entire peer list. Significantly reduces JSON payload and parsing time on large tailnets. - DRY Tailscale JSON Reading — Deduplicated Tailscale CLI invocations into a single
readTailscaleStatusJSON()helper shared across exit node detection, IP checking, and profile fingerprinting.
