Capybara organizing documents between a laptop, phone, and cloud Vault

Capydocs 1.0.0 is the first stable release. It brings the local-first file and document workspace to iOS and Android, adds optional cloud synchronization for mobile Vaults, and expands the desktop app with new formats and editing tools. The complete change list is available in the Capydocs changelog.

Capydocs on iOS and Android

The mobile apps include the main Vault, Home, Search, Favorites, file, folder, editor, media, Kanban, Habit, task, and settings workflows. Their interface uses mobile navigation, touch controls, native file import, and platform-specific system integrations instead of shrinking the desktop layout onto a phone.

You can import several files into the current Vault folder. On iOS, the picker can also open the photo library. Android can pin shortcuts for individual documents to the Home Screen. Mobile viewers and editors include specific controls for touch selection, long presses, software keyboards, safe areas, and system Back behavior.

The product model differs by platform:

Platform Products Optional cloud Vault sync
macOS and Windows Separate Lite and Full desktop products No
iOS and Android Paid Full mobile product Dropbox, OneDrive, or Google Drive

Each paid product is a separate store purchase. Ownership does not transfer between Apple, Google Play, and Microsoft accounts.

Optional cloud synchronization for mobile Vaults

Mobile Vaults remain local on the device. You can optionally connect a Vault to Dropbox, OneDrive, or Google Drive for bidirectional synchronization.

Synchronization keeps a local catalogue of provider revisions, pending local changes, and completed transfers. It uses resumable downloads, atomic file publication, provider change cursors, and bounded retries. If the app closes or a task is cancelled, completed work is retained and the remaining queue can continue later.

When both sides change the same file and Capydocs cannot combine them safely, it preserves a conflict copy instead of discarding either version. Markdown, TextPack, Canvas, Kanban, and other supported document formats also have format-aware reconciliation paths for changes that can be merged without ambiguity.

More portable documents and PDF tools

CanvasPack and KanbanPack keep a document and its local attachments together in one portable file. TextPack continues to do the same for Markdown documents. Capydocs can also edit text and TextPack content stored inside writable ZIP archives, with changes committed back through the archive.

The file viewer now opens TAR archives, ODT documents, and RTF files. These formats can be previewed, indexed for search, and read by supported local document tools.

PDF workflows now cover more of the document lifecycle. TextPack, TextBundle, images, CBZ, and DOCX files can be exported to PDF. Pages can be reordered, deleted, split, merged, viewed, and printed. Generated PDFs store Capydocs metadata inside the PDF and preserve compatible OCR and metadata from their sources.

Metadata can also live inside JPEG, PNG, AVIF, WebP, HEIC, HEIF, MP3, Markdown, TextPack, and PDF files. Existing .meta sidecars remain readable. Capydocs migrates a valid sidecar only after the internal metadata write succeeds.

Editing, media, and local processing

The Markdown editor adds responsive Unsplash search, YouTube search and direct-link insertion, embedded YouTube playback on iOS, improved file and image attachment flows, mobile table controls, and translation tools. The attachment workflows also understand portable packs, so embedded files can travel with their documents.

Canvas gains object and grid snapping, touch panning, pinch zoom, and a mobile toolbar. Kanban gains portable attachments, inline card editing, filtering, and more accessible mobile actions. Habit documents support groups, frequencies, ranges, and a tracker that adapts to smaller screens.

Audio files now open in a dedicated player with artwork, queue actions, synchronized lyrics, responsive layouts, and a desktop mini-player. Speech processing uses platform and local options: Apple Speech on iOS with a cached Whisper Tiny fallback, platform recognition on supported Android versions, and local Whisper processing on desktop.

OCR uses Apple Vision, Google ML Kit, or Windows OCR on supported native platforms. Other builds can use the configured Local AI model. OCR results for images and PDFs are stored through the normal metadata system, which makes them available to search and supported document-reading tools without creating a separate .ocr file.

Image workflows include cropping, rotation, automatic orientation, format conversion, PDF export, and Real-ESRGAN upscaling. Product analytics remains disabled by default through a build-time flag, and optional AI and media services keep separate feature controls.
