What is new in LaunchCorner 1.1.1

## LaunchCorner v1.1.1

A targeted bug fix release improving background execution, app controls, and auto-updates.

### Bug Fixes & Improvements

- **Fixed Background Execution**: Fixed an issue where disabling *"Show in Menu Bar"* and closing the app window caused LaunchCorner to quit. LaunchCorner now stays active in the background and reliably detects hot corner gestures even when both the Dock icon and Menu Bar icon are turned off.
- **New Settings Quit Button**: Added an explicit **"Quit LaunchCorner"** button in *Settings > Danger Zone* so you can easily quit the app even when running without a Menu Bar icon.
- **Sparkle Auto-Updates**: Resolved security signature verification so automatic updates now deliver seamlessly and securely to all users.
