The desktop app adds an assistant that explains a preview, typed or spoken, and sees section numbers and sizes, never file paths. Pro and Team can back up receipt summaries and restore them on another Mac. Required-update notices arrive, automatic updates relaunch at a quiet moment, and a first preview no longer asks for media-library access.

Section 12 lists recently touched orphan candidates for review, and section 25 checks both launchd domains.
