Kvieta Alpha 1 (superseded — use Hotfix 2)

Warning

Superseded: Download Kvieta Alpha 1 Hotfix 2 instead. It includes the Guardian PIN authorization fix and keeps administrator dialogs visible above the protected session surface.

Highlights

• Complete Kvieta identity across the app, setup experience, tray, Windows executable, installer, and documentation.
• Three usage modes: Tracking only, For myself, and For someone I manage.
• Weekly schedules, daily limits, controlled breaks, focus sessions, application rules, and local usage history.
• Optional trusted-phone enrollment and local PIN recovery with QR transfer, comparison codes, expiry, replay protection, and explicit revocation.
• More reliable Guardian startup, repair, policy handoff, administrator exit, and protected-session lifecycle.
• Safer install, update, repair, reconfiguration, rollback, and removal flows.

Important boundary

Protected mode is designed primarily for a standard Windows account managed through a separate administrator account. No desktop application can guarantee absolute resistance against someone with physical access and Windows administrator privileges. This is an early preview; the broader installer, DPI, Guardian, escape-path, and Windows lifecycle matrix remains open before final v1.0.0.
