Meridian 1.49.0

July 19, 2026

Meridian stays responsive through large inboxes and background work, with clearer meeting alerts and faster feedback when you act.

Automations have a home of their own — Manage automations from a dedicated Settings tab, turn them on or off with one clear control, and review recent runs separately.

Large inboxes stay responsive — Search indexing, message matching, sidebar counts, and data upgrades now work in small, paced batches instead of holding up what you are doing.
Meeting reminders use macOS the way you expect — Calendar alerts stay visible through the system and include useful actions without changing how regular message alerts behave.
Assistant actions show their progress — Mark done displays a loader, blocks repeat clicks, and removes the card as soon as the task is complete.
Schedules recover when plans change — If a planned time slot passes, Meridian can place the task into a new open slot.
Status messages stay out of the way — Confirmations and errors now float over the app with clear light and dark contrast instead of moving your workspace.

Background work uses far less CPU — Meridian no longer spends long stretches scanning old mail or rerunning broad Assistant and connection checks when nothing needs attention.
