Text sitting on Harbor’s blue is easier to read throughout the app — the notes list, tasks, notebooks, search, the side navigation and the home-screen widget all now meet accessibility contrast standards.
Releases
What shipped, and when.
Every Harbor release on every platform, newest first. Harbor's apps update on their own schedules — the Mac App Store waits on review, the Web Clipper waits on four of them — so the version numbers here rarely line up, and that's on purpose.
- Large accounts open much faster — a note list no longer reads your whole library just to render one page.
- Harbor now tells you what changed after an update, instead of quietly becoming a different app.
Share a note with anyone: make it public, copy its link, and revoke it again whenever you like.
Set any notebook as your default from its long-press menu.
Watched folders can now suggest titles for the notes they bring in.
Very large notes no longer break reading or search.
Fixed: a note containing a table showed a stray tag in the notes list, and signing out during a sync could close the app.
- Plan & Billing is its own section, with a working purchase flow.
- The Files screen matches the web: filters, sort, upload, card metadata and a resizable details panel.
- Ctrl+L locks encryption from anywhere.
- Recurrence chips describe the rule instead of just saying “Custom”.
- Files that have not reached the server say so, and a dead session signs out and tells you rather than failing quietly.
- Harbor warns before a move would encrypt a note and delete its history, and the default notebook can never be encrypt-by-default.
Encryption, end to end: seal individual notes, keep a notebook encrypted by default, and lock the vault from a Quick Settings tile.
Export your notes — every notebook or just one, in either format.
A real tablet layout instead of the phone screen stretched wide.
Faster search: results now rank by relevance.
Fixed: the notes list no longer stalls on large accounts, document scanning works again, and a failed attachment upload now says so and offers a retry.
Passkeys arrive on iPhone and iPad. You can sign in with a passkey, and create and manage passkeys in Settings.
Notes with attachments no longer get stuck after a server problem. They now recover on their own, instead of needing Harbor restarted.
Encrypting, decrypting or moving an encrypted note now warns you first that it clears the note’s version history.
iPhone and iPad: the + button creates the note in the notebook you are looking at, instead of your default notebook.
iPhone and iPad: an encrypted note now shows a padlock in its header.

- Bug fixes and improvements.
Encryption • Lock an individual note, or set a whole notebook to encrypt everything in it. • Touch ID unlocks your notes again — including after Harbor auto-locks on idle. • Encrypted notes stay encrypted when you move them between notebooks and when sync makes a conflict copy.
Export • Export a single notebook or everything you have, in the format you want, and download it when it is ready.
Also in this release • Pasting Markdown now asks how you want it handled instead of converting silently. • A note’s source URL is part of search, and a matching domain ranks near the top. • Attaching a file no longer holds the note while it uploads. • Refreshed accent colour throughout, checked for AA contrast. • Harbor now tells you when a newer version is available. • A long list of fixes across the editor, tasks, attachments and sign-out.
- Harbor’s first release for iPhone and iPad.
- Encryption holds together: an idle lock is on by default, moving a note into an encrypt-by-default notebook seals it, and a notebook’s encrypt-by-default can be changed after it exists.
- Dragging files from Explorer into a note attaches them instead of failing in silence.
- The slash menu’s inserts all work — five of them did nothing before.
- The bulk “Tags” button applies tags to everything you selected.
Encryption that keeps up with you
- Touch ID re-opens an idle lock — An idle lock takes Touch ID now, not just the one at launch.
- Version History respects encryption — No more ciphertext on screen, and no offer to restore a version it cannot read.
- Notes stay sealed when they move — Moving a note into an encrypt-by-default notebook seals it, and a sync conflict copy stays encrypted.
- Export is complete — Every export you have made, one slot per format, with the date it finished and a Delete.
- A refreshed accent colour — Across the app and the editor, split so nothing below AA contrast ships.
- Export is complete — six states per format, a delete, and a per-notebook export.
- A refreshed accent colour across the app and the editor, split so nothing below AA contrast ships.
- Note-linked tasks show a note icon, and clicking it opens the note.
- Pasting Markdown asks first instead of converting silently.
- A note’s source URL is part of the offline search index, and a domain match ranks near the top.
- Search says the index is still building instead of reporting “no results”.
- Sparkle now genuinely checks for updates, and every flavor shows the same update banner.
- Attaching a file no longer blocks the note while it uploads.
- Rotating the phone with the camera open keeps the camera open.
- Note-linked tasks show a note icon, and iPhone/iPad get the Mac’s “Go to note”.
- Attachment cards and in-note task markers render as icons instead of emoji.
- Paste fixes: “Paste as is” no longer pastes nothing, and leaving a note tells you when it drops a held Markdown paste.
- Export leads with HTML; iPhone and iPad get the Mac’s “We’re here to help” intro.
- Export is finished: delete an export, pick the format and notebook with flags, and see the new export states.
- Fixed Safari reporting no website access even after you granted it.
- Documentation only — no user-facing changes.

- Fixed Safari reporting no website access even after you granted it.
- Pasting Markdown now asks first, with a three-option choice, instead of converting silently.

- Fixed the source-URL menu opening off the wrong edge and sizing itself to the chip.
