Everything in eight languages

zcrypt now speaks eight languages all the way through, Spaces got proper pages, and a lot of privacy work happened quietly in the background.

Not released yet. This is what is lined up for the next version.

New
  • The whole app and the website are now translated into Arabic, German, Spanish, French, Russian, Urdu and Chinese, not just the menus.
  • Spaces moved from pop-up windows to real pages with their own links, and you can drive them from the keyboard.
  • Adding files to a Space keeps working in the background while you carry on with something else.
  • Your profile photo now shows wherever your avatar appears, instead of just an initial.
  • One-line installers for macOS, Linux and Windows that avoid the unverified-app warning, plus a Homebrew tap on the download page.
  • A self-hosting kit: run your own zcrypt server on any Linux box behind a Cloudflare Tunnel.
  • The site suggests a language based on your country instead of switching it behind your back.
  • This changelog, with a page for every version, an RSS feed and a What's new dialog in the app.
  • A quick settings panel behind the gear icon: theme, light or dark, language and advanced mode without leaving the page.
  • A Get the apps button: scan a QR code for the Android app, or download the desktop app for your system in one click.
  • The command palette (Ctrl or Cmd + K) can now do things: upload, new folder, lock the vault, switch theme and more.
  • Custom themes get a matching light and dark version worked out from your colors, so they stay readable in both.
  • Twelve new background designs for custom themes, all following your accent color.
Improved
  • Share links are created faster, especially when you share many files at once.
  • The update dialog now tells you what actually changed instead of a vague promise.
  • Page titles no longer repeat the name twice, and the sitemap now has real dates.
  • One bigger search bar on the vault page, with your recent files right in its dropdown.
  • Every toggle is now an iOS-style switch in your theme color, easy to see when it is off.
  • Deleting or moving files happens straight away with an Undo button, instead of asking you first.
  • A tidier vault: one slim storage notice, clearer list and grid icons, a storage ring in the sidebar, friendlier empty states, right-click menus and smoother loading.
  • Phones and tablets get a cleaner layout: the lock is always reachable, filters stick to the top and nothing spills off the screen.
Fixed
  • Spaces pages ask you to unlock instead of failing, the file picker no longer crashes, and a Space's sealed name stays readable after a key rotation.
  • The Pad, Send and Transfer pages show their steps and closing text again.
  • With the theme set to System, the app now follows your device's light or dark switch straight away.
Security
  • Space names are now sealed on your device, like file names already are.
  • Your device remembers the sharing key it first saw for each person and warns you if it later changes.
  • Passphrases have a sensible minimum length now, with hints in every language.
  • The app never sends a file name or hash in the clear, and the server will refuse an old app that tries, once the server is updated.
  • The hash for Send links is sealed too, so even that small clue stays with you.
  • The content security policy is now enforced by default instead of only reporting, which makes injected scripts much harder to run.
  • Sign-in sessions now store only a rough IP address too, and login records no longer keep the email you typed.
  • Groundwork for one account master key, so a future version can make passphrase changes painless. It is off by default.
  • Very old versions of the app will be told to update before uploading once the server is updated, so they can't write unprotected names.
