BitNotifier 1.2 is out
I’ve taken the feedback given so far and made some tweaks to the software.
Change log
- Spacing on G19 should be fixed. I don’t have a G19, so some guess work is going into this.
- Centered the text on the UI.
- Added volume to the UI.
- Moved website and donation functionality to the menu bar.
- Added tabs to the UI.
- Added a calculator to the UI.
You can download the latest version here.
If you installed a previous version I’m afraid you’ll need to manually uninstall it before you can install this one. I’m looking into why that’s happening and hope to address it in a future release. My plans for the next version are going to be “behind the scenes” improvements which should lead to this project going open source . After that, I’ve got a list of features I’d like to implement including deeper MtGox support, personal wealth tracking, and maybe integration with some of the more popular software miners out there.
Do you want to see a feature that isn’t on my radar yet? Let me know.


I really like this small program. Thank you for making it.
Small potential bug: When using the calculator and there are zeros in every box (bitcoins, price, dollars) and the user checks the “Use Latest” box, sometimes the program throws a divide by zero error. On a quick inspection it looks like it is unable to pull the current price, possibly because the program just opened.
I had a G15 that I wasn’t using that I hooked up just for this program. I don’t leave the window on the desktop open, but if I switch back to my other keyboard, then I probably will.
Thanks for pointing out that bug. I know exactly why it’s happening and will address it in the next update. As a work around – well, I think you already found it. Wait 10 seconds after launching the program. Hopefully the new version will be out within a week.
