Please bring this to macOS 26

One of your best effects. Would love to have it working on macOS 26 as a plugin for Logic Pro and GarageBand.

Halfway works

Updated: it stopped working on the iPad as well as the iPhone.

Purchased this because it says it is a universal app. It does work on the iPad flawlessly. It does not work on iPhone at all and causes extreme distortion and immediate crashes currently as of April 2025. Probably because of the recent iOS updates. Hope it gets at update!

Bark Filter loads as an AU into GarageBand on macOS…

...but not into Logic Pro as an AU on macOS.

It has been a year since my original post describing this problem. Could you please look into this matter? Fails validation and this is confirmed in Logic Pro’s Plug-In Manager. Thank you, Harry.
