Chatcove 0.1.3
Chatcove 0.1.3 for macOS.
- Backups that stopped at "Could not perform backup protocol version exchange, error code -1" now get further. The bundled libimobiledevice accepts the newer handshake that recent iPhones may use, and when the handshake still fails it reports the real error code instead of -1.
- If the iPhone does not answer at the start of a backup, Chatcove now retries on its own (up to 3 more attempts), then shows clear steps to get it going instead of the raw error.
- New: Report a problem, from the Help menu, Settings, and every error card. You see exactly what will be sent before anything leaves your Mac: technical logs, versions, error details and the screenshots you choose to keep. It never includes your messages, contacts or media. You can also save the report to a file instead.
- Logs now live in ~/Library/Logs/Chatcove, with the backup password, licence key and personal details redacted.

New install: download Chatcove-0.1.3-arm64.dmg, open it, and drag Chatcove to Applications. Already on an earlier version: the app downloads this update and offers to restart, or use Check for Updates in the app menu.
