Version 1.11.0
May 23, 2017
- Send us feedback: We love hearing from our customers about how they enjoy using our products and what enhancements would make their work easier. Use the new in app feedback feature and let us know what you think of Eye P.A.!
- Locate packets on timeline: Ever wonder where a packet appears on the over-time graph? On the packets table, select a row and then check out where it shows up on the graph!
- Active selection updates: The active selection window is pretty awesome and provides handy data. It now provides even more handy data by telling you exactly where the active selection starts, where it ends, and how much time occurs in-between. Awesome.
- Licensing fix: Some users used to be blocked from using Eye P.A. when they were disconnected from the Internet. Used to be…
Version 1.10.2
April 24, 2017
- Improved compatibility: Wireshark and Eye P.A. broke up for awhile, but they’re back together again! Eye P.A. can once again export packets to the latest version of Wireshark. Be sure to update Wireshark as well, as this update breaks compatibility with older versions.
- Easier license renewal: The MetaCare renewal experience wasn’t awesome, so we made it awesome (that means it’s easier and faster).
- Streamlined bug reporting: If Eye P.A. crashes (and it won’t, right?!), you can now report app crashes to let us know that it broke, which will allow us to better prioritize and fix issues.
- Improved auto updates: We didn’t like our old auto updater so we made a new one called “Magpie.” Also, it’s open source!
- Adds beta update integration: Want to test the latest releases? Eye P.A. now has a beta channel! Opt in via the Help menu, but be warned, beta versions are experimental, and might contain bugs!
- Update/Settings fix: Wasting time is lame, so Eye P.A. app settings are now retained when updating to the latest version.
- Desktop icon fix: Desktop icons are totally 2003, so we no longer add a desktop shortcut automatically upon installation of Eye P.A. But it’s still in your Start menu, and if you want to be trendy you can pin a shortcut to your taskbar for quick access (it’s what all the cool kids are doing...we hear).
