• 💥 Breaking changes
  • The file /Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/tmp/karabiner_grabber_manipulator_environment.json is no longer updated.
    You can still use EventViewer to check current variable values.
• 🐛 Bug Fixes
  • Fixed an issue in EventViewer where new events were not added while the "Unknown Events" tab was open.
• ✨ New Features
  • Added a "Temporarily turns off all Karabiner-Elements modifications" toggle to EventViewer.
  • Added a feature that lets you set environment variables via /Library/Application Support/org.pqrs/config/karabiner_environment.
  • Added support for devices that expose the Programmable Buttons usage on the Consumer Usage Page. (e.g., VEC USB Footpedal)
  • Added set_variable.expression and set_variable.key_up_expression.
  • Added expression_if and expression_unless.
  • Added system.now.milliseconds to variables.
  • Added integer_value to the from event definition.
• ⚡️ Improvements
  • Updated the app icon for macOS 26.
  • Added support for Liquid Glass.
  • Reduced the load on karabiner_grabber.
    In particular, CPU usage is lower when handling high-frequency events (e.g., mouse input).
  • Improved handling of the ignore_vendor_events setting.
    The UI already prevented enabling this for Apple devices, and now, even if you manually set ignore_vendor_events in karabiner.json, vendor events for Apple devices will always be processed regardless of the setting.
  • Adjusted the layouts in Settings and EventViewer to show more information.
  • Supported the following keys:
    • generic_desktop::system_app_menu
    • consumer_key_code::microphone
    • consumer_key_code::selection
    • pointing_button::button33 ... pointing_button::button255
  • Sparkle Framework has been updated.
