Changelog
Important changes, version by version.
A short history to understand what changes in Obscura Flow and identify useful improvements.
Tracked fixes
Reliable versions
v2.0.5
A reference import no longer reports a renamed folder
Referencing a catalogue raised an alert about a folder that had never existed.
v2.0.4Your storage media now have an age, and a deadline
The app knew a file was intact. It did not know the disk holding it is six years old.
v2.0.3Offline, a subscriber keeps their paid features
Launching without a network dropped every subscriber to the free tier — and erased their licence.
v2.0.2Deciding what to do with missing files, not just listing them
The Health centre reported unreachable files without offering to handle them.
v2.0.1The app inside the DMG is stapled
The notarisation ticket was attached to the DMG, never to the app inside it.
v2.0.02.0 — clear vocabulary, a Go menu, and a free tier with a real boundary
A major release. Read this before updating if you use the app without a paid licence.
v1.48.0An overfull certificate overflows into an appendix instead of being refused
Issuing failed when page 1 could not hold everything.
v1.47.0A photo stays visible when its original is out of reach
A photo vanished from the screen as soon as its source file became unreachable.
v1.46.1An export preview that no longer flickers
The preview regenerated on every keystroke while you adjusted an export.
v1.46.0A usable window from the moment it opens
The app opened on two columns of thumbnails. It now shows five.
v1.45.0Edition size can finally be set — 5, 8 or 12
A limited print no longer assumes an edition of eight, and correcting the size no longer leaves a number that lies.
v1.44.0RFC 3161 timestamping, and a publication that never left is finally visible
An opposable proof of date, optional — and the end of certificates whose QR answered “unknown number”.
v1.43.0A QR code per work, and an uncertain attribution that says so
The certificate stops printing a bare name where the attribution is qualified.
v1.42.0Issue certificates for a whole edition in one pass
An edition of eight prints, eight consecutively numbered certificates, in one cancellable operation.
v1.41.0Confidentiality becomes visible, and the certificate separates what it proves from what is asserted
Prices, holders and living people: what leaves in an export is now readable before you send it.
v1.40.0Every file knows where it is archived, and when it was last checked
Integrity stops being a global number and becomes a date and a result, file by file.
v1.39.1No more silent loss during sync
An event this machine cannot yet read is no longer skipped without a trace.
v1.39.0Third-party verifiable certificates, batch revocation, and a review queue
Printed verification URL, signed bytes carried in the PDF, standardised revocation reasons, and catalogue settings.
v1.38.0Linking photographs to catalogue artworks
Attach library files to an artwork and issue its certificate from the record.
v1.37.0A certificate whose status stays alive
Publish a certificate to the online registry and revoke it from the app.
v1.36.0More precise certificates and institutional exports
A certificate that names the authenticated object unambiguously, and exports in the formats museums ingest.
v1.35.0CSV export, bulk editing, and the printed record
Get the catalogue out as CSV, correct hundreds of records in one pass, and print a record with its indexes.
v1.34.0Catalogue raisonné — the scholarly foundation
Catalogue, attribution, prints, provenance, exhibitions and publications, with a verifiable certificate of authenticity.
v1.33.0Print-ready reports
Typographic control, CMYK output intent, and disclosure of AI-generated content.
v1.32.0Professional report engine
Compose publication-ready reports, with a table of contents, indexes, verification QR codes, and archivable PDF/A export.
v1.31.1What's New matches the installed version
The What's New window shows the notes for the version actually installed.
v1.31.0Global refresh and a cleaner interface
A Refresh button available everywhere and a streamlined interface.
v1.30.1Reliability fixes
Safer project closing and Lightroom wizard.
v1.30.0Built-in Help Center
A native Help Center with offline documentation, search, and a themed web view.
v1.29.0Stronger trust and archive integrity
Pinned trust anchor, signing-key backup, XMP sidecar preservation, and hardened integrity checks.

Offline previews, first-class synonyms, and manual collection resynchronization.
