Changelog

Every todoglow release, newest first. Currently on v1.10.7, shipped Aug 4, 2026.

Shortcuts below are written in mac notation. On Windows, read ⌘ as Ctrl.

v1.10.7

  • improvedthe focus bar stays where you put it. a long todo title now widens the bar evenly on both sides, instead of stretching it off to the right

v1.10.6

  • newthe receipt view can now mask todo titles, so a month full of work todos is still shareable. turn on privacy and every title is hidden until you click one and write a stand-in you don't mind showing
  • fixedan empty slot now shows the number you actually clicked. slot 3 used to say "slot 2 empty", running one behind every other label in the app

v1.10.4

  • fixedarchiving a todo closes out its time the same way completing it does, so a todo left running overnight no longer dumps a full day of work into your stats
  • fixedon Windows, todoglow notices when the machine wakes from sleep and syncs by itself, instead of waiting for you to click the window

v1.10.3

  • improvedon Windows, shortcuts are written the way Windows spells them, and the global hotkeys show the combo that actually works
  • improvedmodifiers follow each platform's own order, so the same shortcut no longer appears two different ways on one screen
  • improvedthe shortcut panel widens as you raise the font size setting, so nothing crowds together at larger text sizes

v1.10.0

  • newtodoglow runs on Windows. same keyboard-first loop, with Ctrl standing in for ⌘ across every shortcut
  • improvedthe dock and menu bar icons are now one setting (dock, menu bar, or both), so you can never end up with todoglow hidden from every icon at once
  • improvedon a cold start, your todos show up right away instead of waiting behind a spinner

v1.9.20

  • newa toggle for the menu bar icon, so you can hide it alongside the dock icon and reach todoglow by shortcut alone
  • newif you hide your last visible icon, todoglow asks first and shows the shortcut that brings it back
  • fixedwith the dock icon hidden, opening todoglow brings its window to the front instead of behind your other windows

v1.9.19

  • improvedthe AI agent setup commands now cover Codex and Cursor, not just Claude Code. pick your tool from the tabs and copy

v1.9.18

  • fixedthe stats and archive screens match the active slot's theme instead of always appearing dark

v1.9.17

  • fixedswitching between two Macs pulls the other device's changes the moment you return to the app, not just after you make an edit

v1.9.16

  • fixedleaving a todo running while your Mac sleeps no longer inflates your tracked time or activity graph

v1.9.14

  • fixedchanges from your other devices show up when your Mac wakes from sleep, instead of waiting until you quit and reopen the app
  • fixedwith "wrap long todos" on, very long todos wrap neatly within the row instead of running under the time on the right

v1.9.12

  • new⇧⌘C in the archive list copies the current day's todos with their active time and time range

v1.9.11

  • fixedstarting a different todo while a timer is running resets the timer. the previous todo's remaining time no longer follows you to the new one
  • improvedsigning out another device now asks for confirmation first

v1.9.8

  • improvedfont size options are small / medium / large with a slightly wider range. existing settings carry over automatically
  • improvedthe "wrap long todos" option also applies in the archive list

v1.9.7

  • improvedsign-in lasts much longer. todoglow quietly refreshes your session in the background, so you can keep using the app without getting kicked back to the sign-in screen
  • improvedthe cloud, stats and archive panels follow your active slot's theme instead of jumping to the global one

v1.9.3

  • improvedthe cloud icon in the title bar only shows up when a sync is actually slow

v1.9.2

  • improvedthe per-device sign-out icon uses a neutral tone instead of red. signing a device out is reversible, so a warning color overstated what it does

v1.9.1

  • newmulti-device cloud sync. sign in on more than one Mac with the same email, rename each device, or sign out a specific device (an old laptop, say) without touching the others. local data on the signed-out device stays put
