✨ Added

  • Editor: You can now paste images directly into the editor from your clipboard - both screenshots and images copied from your file manager are supported.
  • Editor: Added an "Insert Image" toolbar button that opens a file picker, copies the chosen image into your vault, and inserts it at the cursor.
  • Settings: Added an Images section to vault settings for controlling where pasted and imported images are saved (a fixed folder or next to the current page) and whether you are prompted to name them on import.

🐞 Fixed

  • Settings: Fixed the layout of toggle switches so that the switch stays aligned to the title and no longer gets crowded when the description text wraps onto multiple lines.

Installation & Notes

  • 💻 Windows: Download the .msi file to install.
  • 🐧 Linux: Download the .AppImage (for most distributions) or the .deb / .rpm file for your package manager. For Flatpak, see below.
  • 🍎 macOS: Download the aarch64.dmg (Apple Silicon) or x64.dmg (Intel) file.

📦 Flatpak (recommended on rolling distros)

Adds Chronicler as a Flatpak remote so future updates flow through flatpak update:

flatpak install --user --from https://flatpak.chronicler.pro/chronicler.flatpakref

Or one-shot install the bundle from this release:

flatpak install --user Chronicler.flatpak

⚠️ A Note for Windows Users

When you first run the installer, Microsoft Defender may show a "Windows protected your PC" screen. This is expected because Chronicler is a new application from an independent developer and is not yet code-signed.

To proceed, simply click "More info" and then "Run anyway".

🍎 A Note for macOS Users

Chronicler for macOS is currently unsigned. The first time you open it, you will need to run a command in the Terminal.

  1. Download the .dmg file and move the app to your Applications folder.
  2. Open the Terminal app.
  3. Run this command:
    sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Applications/chronicler.app
  4. The app will now open correctly.

🛡️ Security & Trust

While the initial installer is unsigned, all in-app updates are cryptographically signed by me. This is handled by Tauri's built-in updater, which verifies the update signature before installing it. This ensures that all future updates are authentic and have not been tampered with.
