  • What is the current behavior?

On Mac build, "Check for Updates" is under the Stethoscope menu; on Windows it's under the Help menu. I'd like to suggest having Check for Updates appear under Help on Mac as well as under the Stethoscope menu. Makes telling users where to look for it consistent.

Hi @dryan,

Good point, it would definitely be best to have consistent menus across platforms. One thing to note is that we are currently working on moving the application to the tray, the menu will be accessible only via right-click of the tray icon and will be the same across platforms. Here is an example:

The changes are currently in the tray-only-app branch and are slated for release in the next major version (1.3.0). If you want to check out the updates and test: https://github.com/Netflix-Skunkworks/stethoscope-app/tree/tray-only-app

Sweet! I'll check out that branch over the weekend.
