What’s new in version 1.5.0

We’ve launched a new version of Mic Drop, available exclusively on the Mac App Store.

✨ New: Mic Drop 2.0 is out on the Mac App Store. You can read more on our blog, and upgrade by getting the new version in the App Store. Unfortunately, there's no way for us to provide App Store licenses for existing users, but if you bought Mic Drop within the past 120 days and want to migrate to the App Store version, contact us (hi@getmicdrop.com) and we'll happily refund your direct purchase so you can buy Mic Drop 2.0 on the App Store.

Our payment processor won't allow us to issue refunds for purchases more than 120 days ago, so if you bought Mic Drop before then, you'll need to buy the App Store version to upgrade.

🐜 Fixed: An issue that caused the menu to overflow when clicked.
