3.4 - Beta

• Added support for the cloud synchronization - however, you need to have a folder on your computers that will be synchronized with your cloud storage, for example via GNOME Online Accounts. (#297)
• Added an option to generate a password for the configuration archive, about 24 characters long

3.4-beta-07

• This beta version is the last beta version before releasing the stable release version
• Fixed a bug with auto-mounting the cloud drive folders when the folder mounts after the synchronization, so this is why the synchronization didn't work
• In the synchronization mode, the Flatpak apps and their data will be installed immediately after the finished synchronization, so it is not necessary to log out of the system
• New strings have been released for the application itself and also for the documentation related to the new release, so they can already be translated via Weblate

I would love for you to take part in testing this new version! If you run into any issues, feel free to report them via GitHub Issues or join the conversation in GitHub Discussions by clicking the "Join Discussion" button. There, you'll also find instructions on how to set up syncing using the cloud folder.

How to test it:

1. Flatpak

Add the Flathub Beta repository to your system:

flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub-beta https://flathub.org/beta-repo/flathub-beta.flatpakrepo

Install the SaveDesktop application from this repository:

flatpak install flathub-beta io.github.vikdevelop.SaveDesktop

2. Snap

To install this release, run the following command:

snap install savedesktop --beta

3.3.2

• Removed the criterion for at least one number when creating a password for the configuration archive, because it is not written in the dialog, so it could cause confusion. However, the password will now have to be at least 12 characters long, it will not be allowed to contain spaces, and the question mark, exclamation mark, period, and comma have been removed from the special characters.
• Fixed an error when retrieving a URL for synchronization, an error unrelated to retrieving a URL no longer occurs
