Before you upgrade

This release switches to a new analysis engine. On first launch after upgrading, every account does a full re-sync (including message bodies). Existing data, companies, settings, licenses, and past actions are unaffected, but expect a longer sync than usual.

Changes

New pii analysis engine by @wslyvh in https://github.com/wslyvh/paperweight/pull/49
- Includes addresses, phones, IBANs, national IDs, cards, and more
New personal data page to review values, confirm what’s yours
New user profile to manage names, emails, phones, addresses, IDs, and payments
Receiver-address detection
Improved multi-language lexicons for better classification

Fixes

Changes

Unseen reply badges - new unseen message badges when replies arrive on cases by @lendl in #44
Dashboard case tile - active cases needing attention shown on the dashboard by @lendl in #45
Account category filters - filter the accounts list by category by @lendl in #42
App storage management - manage local app data cache from Settings and Support
Minor cursor-pointer style fix by @lendl in #41
Minor badge count fix

Fixes

Mac auto-update - releases now ship the required update zip, and updater failures stay non-fatal.

Changes

Per vendor account email - minor fix that lets users set a per-vendor account email on data requests (e.g. hide-my-email aliases) which is used in the GDPR templates, and reminders. Note that this does not change SMTP from address. Just as account identifier.

Changes

GDPR case tracking - track data requests you send from Paperweight through the statutory response window.

Send requests from a vendor's Data requests tab, and starts tracking a GDPR case
New cases overview with familiar search, and filtering
Case detail with timeline, related messages, and statutory nudges at 14 / 30 / 60 days
Dashboard actions, reminder & follow-ups
Per-vendor cases on the account detail page

This is an initial version. Expect some rough edges, but would love to hear feedback.

What's Changed

Before you upgrade

Due to new folder sync, IMAP and Microsoft require a full re-sync on first launch after upgrading. That clears existing message data only. Companies, whitelist, license, and past actions (unsubscribe, trash, etc.) are kept. Expect a longer sync than usual.

Gmail accounts are unaffected.

Changes

Free tier scan increased from 30 to 90 days.
Copy Google & Microsoft OAuth sign-in links when the account is in another browser profile. Fixes #33
Full-mailbox scanning instead of inbox-only (IMAP, Microsoft, Gmail). Fixes #37
Custom GDPR recipient field and no-reply address filtering. Fixes #34
Improved sync reliability and stable message IDs across folder moves.
Added a light mode theme. Configurable in settings.
Minor fix in company view not resetting state on navigation.

Changes

Embed AppImage update information
First product release (non pre-release) for better update support

Changes

Fixed Linux AppImage build/runtime compatibility by pinning the AppImage toolset.
Allow to copy OAuth sign-in links for Google and Microsoft. Useful when targeting different account, or browser profiles different than the default browser.
Allow crypto payment, including Bitcoin, Monero, Zcash, Ethereum, and stablecoins.

Changes

Google sign-in is fully available again with Google’s official app verification. No temporary disable, verification warnings, or other OAuth workaround steps.

Changes

Added support for more email providers in the app: you can now connect Apple/iCloud and Proton Mail accounts.
Improved onboarding and add-account setup flows, with clearer provider selection and connection UX.
Expanded SMTP/IMAP support in the desktop app, including better handling of custom server settings and app-password style authentication.
Improved provider connection reliability across Gmail, Microsoft, IMAP, and SMTP paths.
Strengthened sync stability and account handling under the hood for more reliable background processing.
Updated Google connection messaging in-app during verification-related availability constraints.
Refined GDPR-related app data/templates and shared app-side privacy logic for clearer data-request workflows.
