Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/3461

Bug Description

There was no warning from Brew or the app when I just wanted to do a regular update that the files would be incompatible with the new version. I have now lost all of my notes for my college courses because of an update, which is partially my fault due to not backing up beforehand, but a warning besides a single release page would've been nice.

How to Reproduce

Update from 0.1.6 up.

Expected Behavior

I expected some form of transfer of documents.

Operating System

MacOS 13.4.1

AppFlowy Version(s)

0.1.6-0.3.2

Screenshots

No response

Additional Context

Could I get my files back somehow? Did AppFlowy save the database in a temp spot? I am saddened at my loss.

@annieappflowy Hi I am having trouble, I keep trying to export my documents and it's only exporting a partial amount of the documents and it won't close the export menu, checking the log file says this {"msg":"Uncaught platform error"}
