This release includes everything from 1.2.0-beta.1, so RemoveMacAI now runs on macOS 15.1 (Sequoia) and later, not just 26 and 27 (#45).
- The app is translated into Simplified Chinese (#54). Contributed by tc54188 in #92. The strings Hindi, Italian, Japanese and Urdu were missing are filled in too.
- The app starts on Apple Intelligence alone. The Overview and the sidebar show just that until you choose Show More Tools, and the first-run guide offers Just Apple Intelligence first. Anyone who already changed other settings still sees everything. The command line doesn't change.
- When macOS keeps files out of reach during a Storage clean-up, the app offers to open the Full Disk Access settings (#66).
- Background items are scanned off the main thread, so a slow scan can't hold up the window (#70).
- Removal no longer reports an error from Apple's asset service when the models it was deleting are gone anyway (#104).
- When a macOS update is waiting and the profile blocks model downloads,

- The app has an Install Command Line Tool… item in the RemoveMacAI menu. It asks first, then links

It never replaces a file there that isn't a link (#60). removemacai backgroundwith an action other thanofforon, such as the typoof, now fails and says which actions it takes, instead of listing the items and exiting 0 (#82).- The app is translated into Hindi and Urdu (#101). Urdu keeps the names of macOS screens and buttons in English, since macOS has no Urdu interface.
- Block Music launches is now called Stop Music from opening, even by hand, and its warning says Music won't open at all until you undo it. The old name read as if only AirPods were blocked (#67).
