Nox v1.0.0 (Stable Release)

Welcome to the initial stable release of Nox , a lightweight Windows background tracking utility and desktop dashboard for monitoring connection presence, active playback duration, and battery levels for Bluetooth earbuds.

Key Features

  • Custom Earbud Profiles: Create custom profiles for any Bluetooth earbuds using MAC address binding.
  • Real-Time Battery Telemetry: Track Left/Right and Case levels dynamically via SPP RFCOMM or standard GATT services.
  • Automatic Protocol Probing: Auto-detects and remembers the correct protocol (SPP/GATT) on first connection.
  • Background Presence & Playback Tracking: Silent tracking using low-overhead WinRT presence and WASAPI peak audio meters.
  • Universal Autopause: Automatically pauses all active media players (Spotify, browsers, VLC) upon earbud disconnection.
  • Interactive Dashboard: Dark-themed analytics featuring daily goals, listening streaks, and battery drain line charts.
  • Scheduled Backups: Hourly scheduler automatically exports database history to JSON files.
  • Security Controls: Password protection for configurations and local database resets.

Under The Hood

  • Rust & Tauri (v2): Core backend runtime with negligible RAM and CPU footprint.
  • SQLite Database: Local database engine storing connection logs, session metrics, and audio app peaks.
  • WinRT APIs: Low-level integration with native Windows Bluetooth and Media/Audio layers.

Security Notice

As an unsigned, newly distributed application, Windows SmartScreen and Windows Defender may flag the binary (e.g., Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.A!ml or "Windows protected your PC").

  • To Run: Click More info -> Run anyway.
  • If Defender blocks it, allow the app under Protection history in Windows Security settings.
  • For details on Tauri antivirus false positives, see Tauri Issue #2486.
