2.6.3

  • Retrying a removal now updates the count on the extension icon right away.

2.6.2

3 September 2026

  • A removal interrupted mid-run (for example when Chrome restarts) is picked up again instead of being left behind.
  • Excluding a quoted phrase in search (-"literary agent") now excludes it, instead of requiring it.

2.6.1

28 August 2026

  • Names now appear exactly as the member wrote them, including all-caps surnames, credentials and decoration.
  • Connections LinkedIn never split into a first and last name now show a name instead of a blank row.
  • CSV export no longer breaks rows when a headline contains an unusual Unicode line separator.
  • The "no profile picture" filter no longer catches restricted accounts, whose photo is withheld rather than missing.

2.6.0

20 August 2026

  • Connections show their country rather than their city, with the full location on hover.
  • Exact follower counts on hover, instead of the rounded figure.
  • Two new filters for surfacing prunable accounts: placeholder headlines and hidden surnames.
  • The growth chart now declines in months where more people left than joined, instead of flattening.
  • Rows reveal when a profile was last enriched.

2.5.1

18 August 2026

  • The removal queue now works through transient network failures instead of stalling on them.
  • Signing out of LinkedIn correctly pauses the queue rather than failing silently.

2.5.0

10 August 2026

  • Countries read in English no matter what language LinkedIn shows you, so a profile captured as "Allemagne" filters and exports as "Germany".
  • Cmd+click a profile to enrich it in the background without leaving the list.
  • The inbox shows sync progress while a sync is starting.

2.4.0

25 July 2026

  • Agency licensing: buy seats, share one key, and let each client activate against their own LinkedIn account.
  • Opening a connection’s profile on LinkedIn now fills in their details in the app, so browsing enriches your list as you go.
  • Enrichment pace is now labelled as safe or custom, with the time estimate corrected.

2.3.0

4 July 2026

  • Memorialized profiles ("in remembrance") get their own filter, so you can keep them deliberately or remove them when ready.
  • Memorialized status is included in CSV export.
  • Clearer labels on the restricted accounts filter.

2.2.0

3 July 2026

  • New special filters for finding accounts worth pruning: no profile picture, and small networks.
  • Restricted accounts keep the name and headline captured before the restriction, so a blank row becomes something you can recognise.

2.0.0

25 June 2026

  • Inbox arrives. Your whole LinkedIn message list synced locally and browsable at once, with the real LinkedIn thread embedded beside it.
  • Filters for unread, starred, and whose turn it is to reply.
