ToothFairy 2.8.7
ToothFairy 2.8.7 is a maintenance update of my Bluetooth menu bar utility. This was the easiest of my apps to update for macOS Tahoe 26.
One issue was that building it with Xcode 26 triggered a bug (since fixed) that would crash the compiler.
More visibly, the icon has been updated for Liquid Glass. Though I’m sorry to see the magic wand confined to the squircle, I think Kenichi Yoshida did a great job of preserving the important elements while also simplifying it for the new design language.

Might I suggest a post about apps and techniques to break free of Squircle Jail? This seems like a great blog for it.
@Bart I think most people are using Icon Composer, and some seem to be adapting old-format icons by making sure everything fits into the squircle. Is there more to it than that?
@Bart I had two icons with a white background, and one of them kept getting jailed even though nothing was sticking out. I just needed to add a 1px dark border around the shape.
@Michael I suppose not. I was thinking more from a user perspective. There's some software I use that I doubt will ever get themselves out.
@bart From the user perspective, you can paste in a new icon (any shape) and it will take it out of jail in Finder, but this doesn’t affect what’s shown in the Dock. Not sure what can be done there because replacing the internal icon file would break the code signature.
