[BUG]The iOS app CRASHED and erased EVERY CONVERSATION HISTORY!!!

Open Glory10201452 opened this issue 9 months ago • 4 comments

The app’s been lagging hard for days – frozen screens, random blackouts. Today it totally died. Relaunched it, and BAM!

All chats GONE!

The interface reset to that sterile default setup like I just downloaded it 😭😭. YEARS of drafts, half-finished novels, raw ideas – this was my SOUL poured into text!How does that just… evaporate?!

Running v1.9.5/1.9.7 (which, shockingly, has ZERO cloud backup or even a login?!). “It’s saved locally!” Cool story – WHERE?! Is “local storage” some digital black hole? PLEASE HELP – I’M HYPERVENTILATING HERE.

I'm so sorry for your loss, please upgrade to 1.9.10, we've made some enhancement to improve data storage, and will continue to improve it, cloud backup is also in planning.

You should archive this project if you cannot properly test this app and guarantee a decent level of data security! I just upgraded to v1.11.12, and ALL MY CHAT HISTORY IS GONE!!! This is pure madness!!! How do I recover it?!

@lukaszciastko This issue should be related to the previous storage mechanism not being robust enough,we really don't want such a situation to happen, recently we're working hard on improving storage performance and data security. Until these improvements are fully implemented, we strongly recommend regularly backing up your data as a precaution.

@lukaszciastko Which platform are you using? The data maybe find back if it's desktop version, it's in Library/Application Support/xyz.chatboxapp.app for Mac, and %APPDATA%/xyz.chatboxapp.app for windows

I was on ChatBox for iOS (v1.9.10), where I've been keeping irreplaceable logs of my Golden Retriever's growth. Your site claims all files are 'securely stored locally'—so where exactly are they? I need the file path. I used to trust ChatBox completely
