Known Issues and Other Notes

AppImages

If you encounter problems with the AppImage on Ubuntu, see this issue comment.

Snap

To use local file sync, you need to manually connect the home interface: snap connect superproductivity:home

Data Persistence Warning

When uninstalling the snap package, all user data (tasks, projects, settings) stored in ~/snap/superproductivity/common/ may be removed. Always export your data before uninstalling. Consider the AppImage or .deb package if you prefer data in the standard ~/.config/ location, or Flatpak, which keeps data in ~/.var/app/ and leaves it in place on uninstall unless you pass --delete-data.

For more details, see issue #6031.

Flatpak

Flatpak is a fully supported package, equal to the others listed above — install it from Flathub.

To sync to or back up into a folder outside the sandbox, grant filesystem access with Flatseal or flatpak override. Without it the app reports a permission error. Paths inside ~/.var/app/com.super_productivity.SuperProductivity/ need no extra permission.

Data lives in the sandbox rather than ~/.config/, so another install of a different package format will not see it — see [[3.06-User-Data]]. Update with flatpak update com.super_productivity.SuperProductivity (no sudo).

Wayland

The Snap build automatically uses Electron's X11 rendering backend in Wayland sessions to avoid known Mesa/EGL startup failures. For another Linux package, if the window is blank or the GPU process repeatedly fails to start, try:

bash

superproductivity --ozone-platform=x11

This changes the Chromium rendering backend; it does not enable any additional idle-detection feature and may give up Wayland-native behavior such as fractional scaling or native input-method support.

Universal MacOS DMG

A DMG containing both the x86_64 and arm64 files is also available.

Windows

Due to certification issues, the Microsoft Store is recommended.

At the time of writing, the "chocolatey" build is failing and forcing the use of "pre-releases" is necessary.
