What is new in Tape 1.0.0

First release of Tape: a stock ticker for macOS that lives in the empty corner beside the Dock.

- **Focus**: one listing at a time, large. Its logo as an app-icon tile, the price, the move in mint or coral, and the day so far as a line. The next listing comes into focus column by column.
- **Exactly beside the Dock**: with Accessibility access Tape measures the Dock and sits halfway between the screen's edge and the glass, centred on the icons. It follows the Dock as apps open and close.
- **Fits any Dock**: on a 14-inch MacBook with a long Dock it turns into a compact card, and stacks ticker, price and move when only 56 points are left.
- **Five more looks**: Liquid glass capsules, a dot-matrix LED, printed Paper, Aura and Classic, switchable live.
- **Colours from logos**: each name takes its brand's colour, adjusted to read on your wallpaper.
- Stocks, ETFs, indices and crypto from Yahoo Finance; a detail card on click; under 0.5% CPU.

Requires macOS 26. Tape isn't notarized: the first time, macOS won't open it. Go to System Settings → Privacy & Security and click Open Anyway.
