After hiding MacID you'll need to click the MacID app icon again to get it back. Adds an option to set a keyboard shortcut to completely hide MacID; Improves password entry reliability; Pressing play or pause on MacID for iOS while the screen is locked will wake the screen to play/pause and then automatically send the screen back to sleep; Fixes some nasty memory leaks; Fixes an issue where moving the MacID menu from the Dock to the Menu Bar would fail; Reduces the amount of random connections when Bluetooth briefly wakes up while the lid is closed. Unfortunately there are times when the system reports that the screen is awake even when the lid is closed so MacID will send you an unlock request. I know this is annoying so I'm continually looking into a way to work around this; Adds automatic relaunching for some Bluetooth errors (MacID will only automatically relaunch once an hour in case it gets into a loop); and Adds some logging to the console so you have a better idea of what's happening when something goes wrong with Bluetooth etc.
