Yesterday we’ve switched our user forum with its dated look-and-feel to shiny new Discourse. It’s a lean, modern discussion forum with everything you rightfully expect in 2019. (more)

DEVONtechnologies' applications can interact with your system and other applications to create a interconnected computing experience. In Apple's parlance, "It just works". Or should I say, "It just worked"? To increase security in macOS Mojave, Apple has decided people need to give more permission to applications that want to access certain kinds of data on your machine. As of this writing, the protected areas are: Mail, Messages, Safari, Home, and Time Machine. (more)

Today DEVONthink To Go 2.7.1 has become available on the iOS App Store.

The maintenance release comes with an updated PDF library which fixes a crash during indexing PDF documents.

Finally, the update improves the overall robustness of the app. (more)

Say you are working on a saved document in an application on your Mac and suddenly feel the need to add it to your DEVONthink database. You can close the document, locate the file, and drag it into the database. Or you can drag the proxy icon. But what’s the proxy icon? It’s the icon next to the title at the top of the window in many macOS applications. Just click-and-hold it (it will turn grey to show it’s selected), then drag away. (more)
