Thank you to everyone that contributed in this release! This release includes several new features and a number of other improvements, which are detailed below.

Note: After upgrading to this version, you'll have to sign in again to any websites you were previously signed in to.

This release features a brand-new app icon (courtesy of @Hi_IamBen)! It's simpler and fits in better on new versions of macOS:

Built-in Password Manager

Starting in this release, you can now save your passwords directly inside Min, without needing to connect an external password manager. When you sign in to a website, you'll see an option to save your credentials:

And you can autofill them later by clicking on the key icon inside a login page. Saved passwords are stored in your operating system's keychain, and can be viewed from Min's preferences:
