Needs: a sideloading tool that keeps the App Group entitlement. If the Log says "No App Group", re-sign with one that does.
Worse Query Files 0.5
New
- AltStore / SideStore source. Add
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kolbicz/WQFiles/main/source.jsonto get updates automatically. - The Log starts with the WQ Files version, device and iOS version, also when you share it. Please include it when reporting a problem.
Safer editing
- Files changed by something else are not overwritten. If a file changed after you opened it, saving stops and asks you to reopen it.
- A failed save puts the original contents back.
- Unsaved edits are protected in the plist editor, hex viewer and text editor: Back, Home and the swipe-back gesture ask before discarding, and edits made while a save runs are kept.
Safer restores
- An interrupted restore is repaired at the next launch. If WQ Files is closed in the middle of a restore, the app's previous data is put back from its safety backup.
- Restores are exact. If the backup has no Documents or Library, the current one is emptied too, instead of being kept.
Fixed
- Apps list on some devices: containers WQ Files can't fully access or identify are listed with an explanation instead of being hidden, and the bundle ID lookup is retried after access is granted. This may fix an empty Apps list on iOS 27.2 (#1); please send your Log if it doesn't.
- Scans stop when you leave a screen and don't show results from an earlier scan.
- A quieter Log: routine scan lines are gone; failures are still logged.
