We are excited to announce the stable release of TrueHour v3.1.0! This release introduces robust multi-profile support, fully isolated profile environments, encrypted local storage, optimized single-page invoicing, and critical stability fixes for file locking.

Here is a summary of what's new in this major release:


👥 Multi-Profile Environments & Isolation

Manage separate projects, clients, or team members with ease.

  • Dedicated User Profiles: Create, select, rename, and delete multiple distinct profiles (e.g., Personal, Client A, Freelance) directly from the settings interface.
  • Strict Database & Config Isolation: Each profile operates inside its own secure sandbox with isolated SQLite databases, customized app categories, session logs, and personal settings.

💾 Portable Backups & Easy Migration

  • Compressed .truehour Backups: Backup entire profiles to a single .truehour ZIP archive containing all databases, session files, QR codes, settings, and custom logos.
  • Seamless Profile Restoring: Import a .truehour file to restore or clone your workspace onto any machine with built-in overwrite safety checks.

⚙️ Path Binding & System Stability

  • Dynamic Path Resolution (DynamicPath): Real-time path binding via a custom dynamic PathLike wrapper resolves all settings, QR code locations, and time-integrity hashes instantly when switching profiles.
  • Windows File Lock Resolution: Moved application lock files (truehour.lock) and active logging streams (truehour.log, TrueHour_active.log) to the global root AppData directory, allowing seamless renaming, deletion, or modification of profile folders at runtime without permission conflicts.

🧾 Compact Invoicing & Print Compliance

  • A4 Single-Page Compliance: Re-engineered print layouts, margins, cell paddings, and header heights for a ~38% reduction in vertical space, guaranteeing that standard invoices print beautifully on a single A4 page.
  • Side-by-Side Payment Info: Created a dynamic flex-row layout that positions bank details and direct-payment QR codes side-by-side, adapting responsively as contents change.
  • Enlarged High-Resolution QR Codes: Enlarged scan codes to 140px with optimized high-contrast borders for flawless mobile scanning.
  • Print Color Preservation: Added CSS rules (print-color-adjust) to ensure visual gradient backgrounds, status badges, and table themes retain their color fidelity when saving/printing to PDF.

🔒 Security & Privacy Options

  • Machine-Bound Encryption: Highly sensitive payment details and banking tokens are now encrypted locally using hardware-signature-derived keys (XOR-Base64) combined with SHA-256 seeding.
  • Privacy-First Invoicing Toggle: Instantly hide or show your bank transfer details on generated HTML invoices with a single checkbox toggle in settings.
