Changed
- RFID-related workspaces no longer silently select a Collection record.
- Change Log tables use compact summaries with full details in the existing detail view.
- Card Viewer distinguishes reported, observed and inferred evidence and no longer accepts temporary physical-card notes that disappear after the session.
- Public Preview packages hide maintainer authoring, hotspot calibration, Engineering Mode and the internal build checklist.
- Public wording uses Device Connection, Compatibility and Diagnostics instead of the former user-facing internal name.
Safety and privacy
- Device Studio remains diagnostic and read-only.
- Feedback packages are created locally and are never uploaded automatically.
- Saved Collection data remains local unless the user explicitly exports or shares it.
- Raw MAC addresses and raw machine identifiers are not stored for Preview device verification.
- Legacy
EP-EXTvalues are rejected; approved access changes require signed tokens.
Known limitations
- Early Public Preview 1 is deliberately unsigned and not notarized.
- Early Public Preview 1 support includes separate published macOS Apple Silicon and Apple Intel packages.
- Hardware and firmware combinations can expose different information.
- Some hardware fields correctly remain Unknown.
- Electron Public Preview License v1.0 applies to this release. The matching Proxmark3 corresponding-source package is published with it.
