Was ist neu in NameQuick

Modellwahl bleibt erhalten, eigene Anbieter speichern API-Schlüssel korrekt

Dein Modell und die Denkintensität bleiben bei Anbieterwechsel und Neustart ausgewählt.

Inhaltssuche versucht übersprungene Dateien erneut und meldet Indexlücken

Der Umstieg von der alten Mac-App übernimmt mehr Preset-Inhalte, Regeln und Prompts.

Smart Rename schlägt zuverlässiger Namen vor, Datum als JJJJ-MM-TT

Japanisch-Unterstützung und klarere Kaufwiederherstellung für Self-Managed

Ein offener Kaufvorgang lässt sich wieder öffnen oder abbrechen, statt neu zu beginnen.

Die Versionen 3.0.0 bis 3.0.4 meldeten an das vorherige Projekt; was gemeldet wird, bleibt gleich.

Neuinstallationen starten mit Smart Rename, Hinweis für Intel-Macs

Die eingebaute Engine braucht Apple Silicon; Intel-Macs verweisen jetzt auf Ollama, LM Studio oder die Cloud.

Dateiliste lädt beim Scrollen nach, Update-Hinweise in deiner Sprache

Das Update-Banner rutscht nicht mehr unter die macOS-Fensterknöpfe, und die Nutzungsstatistik läuft wieder.

Jeder Self-Managed-Kauflink öffnet den Checkout mit einem Klick

Einstellungen und Abrechnung sprechen bei Self-Managed von Umbenennungen und Lizenz, nicht von Credits.

Korrekturen für Self-Managed-Testphasen und verwaltete Abos

Verwaltete Abos fragen nie nach einem API-Schlüssel, und eine verbrauchte Testphase stoppt sauber.
