v1.2.4

Hi everyone,

I'm sorry for the wait but finally, after so much time, MyNotes is back with huge updates and fixes.

For those who wants to know why new version took so long: this application created using TemplateStudio, when I first created it, template studio was using .NET7, I tried to update to .NET8 for long term support, but I was using some components from WindowsCommunityToolkit those components is removed in new versions of community toolkit and old version was only compatible with the .NET7, so I created or replaced all those components with native WinUI3 counterparts.
This progress took some time, but the main reason of the new update being late is the fact that I develop this application on my free time, and I didn't have that much time lately. Again, sorry for the wait, but I think I compensated it with new features. I hope you all like it and use it to be more productive. :D

We got some changes and new features, Some of these changes are;

• Settings page UI: Setting page UI, setting card was one of the components that I used from community toolkit, now it's recreated.
• New Feature, Planner: I created a simplified version of a kanban board, I think it has some space for improvements, but it works fine for now as it is.
• Note Details Page: editor was also from community toolkit, I recreated it and add some improvements, now it has more options to customize your notes, list of new features;
  • Strike-through option added.
  • 6 different list types added.
  • Text alignment options added.
  • Text color options added.
• Also, some UI changes, code improvements and fixes have been made.

Changes From Last Update

Just for good measure, I want to add change notes from last version to here, because It's broken, and I will probably remove it from releases or remove its installer. Those changes are;

• Log system: if you encounter any errors or crashes, they will be log'ed in "C:\Users(YourUserName)\AppData\Local\MyNotes", this location also stores notes and reminders.
• Reminders file type has been changed, this means reminders from old versions won't be listed. Back up reminders before installing new version and recreate them in new one.
• Alarm feature: You can choose reminders alarm status, it will show a little bell icon above reminder icon if alarm is selected for that reminder. Reminders with alarms will act like normal reminders, except they will ring windows alarm sound continuously until interacted.
• Close app option: Normally, when you close the app, it will stay in background for reminders feature to work, this option closes the app completely, this option's intended use case is closing the app before updating to a new version.

Notes:

• This installation file is created using Advance Installer (Thanks to Advance installer team for their support).
• Localization will be implemented in the feature (by using Crowdin).
• I recommend uninstalling old version before installing new one.

V1.1.0

Hi everyone,

This release has some important bug fixes and improvements. Some of these changes are;

• Bug related to reminder delete function is fixed, this bug was preventing reminders to be deleted.
• bug on app notification system is fixed, this bug was crashing app when an info message is clicked.
• Localization system is improved, it will be ready to add new languages soon.

Notes:

• If you are updating from an old version I will highly recommend rebooting windows (or find my notes from task manager and, end task), before starting the app, for single instancing to work properly. Otherwise, the app will stack up in background on every open and close.
• I came across an interesting error while I was testing, I don't know why (probably an installer issue) but when I tried to install new version without uninstalling old one, app doesn't work. So I recommend uninstalling old version before installing new one.
