Release notes for every version of EasyHomeBrew. The current beta is free to download — see the product page for features and screenshots.

v1.5.2

Latest

April 17, 2026

New Reinstall action, an at-a-glance EasyHomeBrew status panel, automatic vulnerability scanning during updates, and a cleaner Updates list that hides internal dependencies.

  • Reinstall button on the package page — fresh copy without removing it from your list
  • New EasyHomeBrew status section (bottom-left): app version, packages scanned, packages affected, and disk space used by the app itself
  • BETA label on Discover — semantic search is still experimental
  • Vulnerability scanning now runs automatically when checking for updates, so outdated and unsafe packages surface together
  • Updates list shows only the apps and tools you installed yourself — internal dependencies are no longer listed separately
  • Cleaner bottom-left status layout: Cellar and Caskroom disk usage grouped with Homebrew stats; Quick Update and Clean Up always available

v1.5.1

April 17, 2026

  • Stability improvements in package browsing and search
  • Faster refresh for installed packages and outdated list
