Group Chat Woes Solved in Version 1.27
rmorehead
alto.index has always been excellent in concept, but data would get overwritten if the calculated export filename was the same (i.e. multiple “Group Chat.md” files).With version 1.27 this appears to be completely fixed for messages, so the app is a great value and well worth a 5 star rating.The author is also highly responsive.
- Fixed voice memos creating duplicate audio files on every sync
- Fixed connections not staying disconnected after app restart
- Fixed background sync stopping when switching to another app
- Active connections now sort to the top of the list
- Added auto-start option for MCP server in Settings
- Cleaned up connection card UI
