What's New in Focalist

1.31

November 4, 2026

Changes since v1.30 - Overhauled date picker dialog and improved the UI. Future dates are scrollable, and picking time, repeat and reminder happens in the same dialog. On desktop the picker opens as a flyout, when it opens as a dedicated dialog on mobile. - Updated Move dialog to use the common tree view for lists. - Changed automatic parent completion to only happen when the parent has no child notes left. - When pressing enter in the middle of a line, it will now act like a document editor and split the text. - Removed unnecessary separator line from the side detail pane. - Updated FCM push listener version to fix push notifications breaking after a day or so on Tauri. - Fixed tutorial CREATE_LIST mutation getting sent over when logging in from an anonymous web client. - Implemented image picking on Web app - Implemented local storage for images to allow adding in anonymous mode. - Fix image uploads failing on the first session after logging in. - Fixed checklists not going to COMPLETED state when finishing the last item. - Stop attempting to upload diagnostic files in Anonymous auth mode. Instead prompt to sign in. - Updated pages from 100vh to 100dvh to behave better on mobile browsers. - Fixed incorrect color on copy svg in share list page. Also fixed share QR code to include the full link, not just the invite code.
