v1.0.47

Windows and Linux. macOS follows from the Mac.

• Copied files and pictures can be named and saved. The save and name shortcut used to work only on text; now a selected file or a copied picture opens in the editor, and several selected files all go in.
• The sync dot stays honest. One slow or failed request no longer shows Offline for a few seconds, and a new copy no longer sits on Syncing until the next check-in.
• Learn more links from every settings pane, the tray menu and the shortcuts list into relic.space/help.
• Phones: sync does its heavy work off the UI thread.

1.0.46

The save and name shortcut works on files and photos now. Select a file in your file manager, or copy an image, then press the shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+E by default). Relic saves it to your Vault and opens the editor so you can name it. Before this, only text made it through. The paste stack's push shortcut takes files too.

Every Settings pane, the tray menu, the shortcuts list, Add a device, the recovery kit screens, the Not synced sheet and the "?" cheatsheet now carry a Learn more link that opens the matching page on relic.space/help.

Phones: sync does its heavy work off the screen thread, the history strip fits a small phone, and the phone Settings sheet gets the same help links.

Windows and macOS: the signed Windows installer and the Mac DMG for 1.0.46 are not out yet; 1.0.45 stays current there for now. The Windows zip here is the unsigned build of this commit from public CI.

1.0.45

Relic now tells you when your free history is full.

The free plan keeps your last 500 copies in view. Until now, older copies stopped showing without a word. Now a banner in the history list says when you are close to the limit, and once you pass it, how many older copies are waiting. Search says so too when it comes up empty.

Those older copies are no longer deleted. Relic keeps them, and upgrading to Pro brings them all back on the next sync.

Paid plans and self-hosted vaults see no change.

Relic 1.0.44

A fix for everyone who set up Relic on a desktop computer.

If you created your vault on Windows, Mac or Linux, Relic was supposed to show you your recovery kit right after setup and add that computer to your account's device list. A bug quietly skipped both, on every desktop setup since the end of June. The recovery kit screen now appears the way it should. Relic also checks at every start that your computer is in the device list under Settings, and adds it if it is missing, so existing installs repair themselves after this update with nothing to do on your end.

Your recovery kit is the only way back into your data if you ever forget your vault passphrase. If you set up on desktop and never saw one, open Settings, then Security, then Recovery kit, and save it somewhere safe today.

v1.0.43

Three fixes to the formatting work that shipped in 1.0.42.

Pasting no longer brings a web page's colours with it. Copying a few sentences off a dark page and pasting them into a document used to give you white text sitting in black boxes. Nothing was broken, that really is what the page says about its own text, but it is the wrong thing to do weeks later in a document you were not thinking about when you copied. Relic now drops colours, backgrounds, fonts and shadows when it writes, and keeps everything that carries meaning: bold, italic, links, lists, headings, tables and alignment. Text you copied out of Word or Pages is left alone, because there the formatting is your own.

The paste stack keys have moved. They were Ctrl+Shift+D and Ctrl+Shift+B, which Chrome uses to bookmark tabs and to show the bookmarks bar. A global shortcut does not politely fail when another app wants the same keys, it takes them, so those two would have quietly stopped working in Chrome. They are Ctrl+Alt+D and Ctrl+Alt+B now. If you turned the paste stack on and never changed the keys yourself, Relic moves you across.

Pasting with a shortcut no longer leaves a key stuck. If you were still holding Ctrl while Relic pasted, Windows could be left believing you had let go, and the shortcut would do nothing until you lifted your fingers and pressed again. This affected every paste shortcut, not only the stack.

v1.0.42

Rich text capture and the sequential paste stack, plus the fix that is the
reason to update.

Keeps your formatting

Copy a styled paragraph out of a document or a web page and the bold, the links
and the fonts come with it. Pasting into Word, Gmail or Notion looks the way it
did where you found it. The plain text is always kept alongside it, so an app
that wants plain text still gets it, and any item has a Copy as plain text
option in its row menu. Both behaviours have switches in Settings under Capture.

Secrets never carry formatting. That is enforced at capture, at write, and again
at export, because an item can be marked secret after it was captured.

Paste several things in a row

Turn on the paste stack in Settings under Power features. Ctrl+Shift+D adds
whatever you just copied to a queue and Ctrl+Shift+B pastes the next thing and
takes it off. Copy three things, then fill three fields without opening the
picker between each one. The queue empties when you quit.

Fixes

• If you sign out, or remove a device from another machine, Relic now says so
  and gives you a sign in button. It used to sit on Offline forever with no way
  back.
• On phones, an item picks up the title, tags and text that arrive later from a
  desktop. The sync line no longer says Offline while items are still coming in.
  Sharing to Relic takes any kind of file.
• On Linux the modifier key reads Super instead of Win, and the tray icon
  matches the one everywhere else.

Platforms

Windows only for now. macOS and Linux are unchanged at 1.0.41 and 1.0.40, and
Linux is two versions behind. Neither can be built from the machine this was cut
on.

Relic 1.0.40 (Linux)

The first Linux release. x86_64, built for X11.

Easiest path is relic.space/download/linux. The full story on what works and what does not is in docs/linux.md.

Files

File	What it is
relic-1.0.40-linux-x64.tar.gz	Extract anywhere, run ./relic_app. Nothing installs system-wide: Relic writes its own launcher entry and registers relic:// on first run
relic-1.0.40-x86_64.AppImage	One file. chmod +x and run. This is the artifact that can update itself in place
relic-v1.0.40-linux-windows-x64-unsigned.zip	The Windows build from this same tag, unsigned, for anyone verifying that the source builds

The two Linux files here were built by CI from this tag. The downloads served at relic.space are the same source built on the release machine, so their hashes are not the same bytes as these. Both sets:

Worth knowing

• X11 gets everything: the global hotkey, summoning the window, and pasting your pick back into the app you were using. Wayland hands no app a global hotkey or synthetic keystrokes, so Relic says the hotkey is unavailable rather than failing quietly. It still captures and syncs.
• Stock GNOME has no tray. Relic asks the session bus who owns StatusNotifierWatcher before telling you where to look, so it points you at your shortcut instead of at an icon that is not there.
• On-device AI ships in the box. sift and libonnxruntime.so sit beside the app in both artifacts. Nothing downloads at install time, nothing leaves your machine.
• The vault lives in $XDG_DATA_HOME/relic (usually ~/.local/share/relic).
• No aarch64 build and no distro packages yet.
