Changelog

New

• Switching to LIVE now warns when Polymarket shows no trading approval for your wallet yet, with the step that usually fixes it. The warning also reaches the app when it connects after LIVE has started.

Changed

• Setup guide: the welcome page, the licence step and the wallet-key step now describe costs, the optional licence key and where your key is stored more precisely, and the balance step no longer lists payment methods. Its first confirmation step appears once more on your next start.
• Wallet-key step: the button now reads STORE KEY and fits on one line.
• Licence messages in ⚙ Settings and the licence-expiry notice now name the Free tier.
• The built-in beta licence has been extended. ⚙ Settings → LICENCE shows the new end date.

Improved

• Installed Apps and Programs and Features now show the same publisher name as the installer's signature.
• The setup guide now asks when you created your Polymarket account before asking how you log in, so older email and browser-wallet accounts get the right wallet type even when your Polymarket profile cannot be reached.
• The setup guide says plainly when Polymarket lists a different wallet for your key, names that wallet and tells you where to enter it before trading LIVE, instead of showing it as recognised. A wallet address that could not be confirmed now reads as unconfirmed, and older browser-wallet accounts are found even when you are unsure of the account's age.
• Hints, messages and help texts across the setup guide, Settings, the ladder and the user guide read more naturally, with the same meaning as before.

Notes

• The manual's start page and About now say that the manual was drafted with AI assistance, and that the app is the authority wherever the two disagree.
• Updating from an earlier version keeps your settings, limits, wallet setup and session history. The app's data folder is renamed on first start; nothing needs to be redone.

Improved

• Windows installers and the app are now digitally signed; the Windows security prompt names the publisher.
• The Windows installer and its uninstaller now carry the POLYDESK icon instead of the generic installer symbol.

Fixed

• Consistent title casing across the app and status windows.
• Updating on Windows while the built-in engine is still running: the installer now waits for the engine to stop instead of failing on a locked file.

Improved

• Market picker rows now show what distinguishes each market (for example "Set 2 Winner" or "O/U 4.5") instead of repeating the match title; the full question stays in the tooltip.
• A market type with a single market appears as one tagged row; type tags and volumes are aligned in columns and easier to read.
• Market counts in the picker are loaded up front — no more rows reading "all game markets" while others show a number; "counting markets…" appears only briefly.
• The market explorer uses the same labels and type tags.

New

• An expanded event in the market picker lists its markets in the same order as the Polymarket game page: the main market first, then moneyline, spread, totals and the other groups. More side markets are found, for example corners and player props.

Changed

• Clicking the PX column recenters the ladder; placing an order from that column can be restored in ⚙ Settings → LADDER VIEW.
• The ladder's vertical direction follows the display mode: the displayed value always rises toward the top, in POLYMARKET view as in EXCHANGE view.
• Fat-finger protection defaults to no limit; an empty field means unlimited. Limits you set are enforced as before.

Fixed

• Recentering (⊙, PX click and auto-center) now lands on the current mid price on every price grid; on 0.01 grids it used to settle several ticks below.
• The picker shows one final market count per event instead of a number that changed after expanding.
• Position and P&L figures right after a fill no longer flip back to stale values; hedge orders adapt to the size that can actually be sold.

New

• The user manual: "? GUIDE" in the footer opens the full English manual with screenshots inside the app; "OPEN IN BROWSER" shows the same pages beside the cockpit.

Changed

• Automatic updates and the ★ FEEDBACK form use new, more reliable infrastructure. Existing installs update as usual; nothing to do.

Fixed

• The window opens at its saved size and position without a maximized flash; the first start opens maximized.
• Sections of the bottom panel no longer grow beyond their column when their content is wide.
• Crash reports from the app window are delivered again.

New

• Public beta: every install includes a beta licence valid until 31 October 2026 — no licence key needed.
• The PAPER/LIVE switch lives in the top bar, with a confirmation step.
• ⚙ Settings is the one place for wallet, licence and fat-finger protection; changed limits apply immediately.
• EXCHANGE view groups the ladder into 2-decimal rows; the ladder follows a market's tick size change live, and a "1.00" row lets you exit after the change.
• ★ FEEDBACK in the footer: rate the beta and leave a note anonymously.

Improved

• The notifications bell opens a dropdown instead of a modal.
• The footer status is simpler: the ENGINE signal also covers the fill feed.
• Anonymous crash reporting now covers the built-in engine as well.
