Improvements & Bug Fixes:
- Fix a bug with licensing
- We've added the option to make screen recording optional. This option does remove many features from Bartender, however. You may need to enable screen recording temporarily to setup Bartender, but then you can toggle it off if you'd like. Bartender never stores, scans, or uploads the contents of your screen. We also fixed a bug with Apple menu bar item, a bug with trigger logic, and a crash with multiple monitors.
