Hi there @eneko-josemadorran-esteiro-boop, thanks for filing this issue. This is due to the fact that we currently don't build or support Windows on ARM. However, if you're up for it, maybe you can help us gather some info, by finding a way to open AppFlowy via the command prompt or powershell, and seeing if any error messages show up as you launch the app.

Hey! Thanks for the info. I'll keep using it and let you know if I find anything else. My plan is to switch to Linux eventually, though.
The crash happened when I was pasting an embedded file from MS Loop. I fixed it by deleting the local data and logging back in.
It also has some small issues with grid tables. Sometimes it freezes when I'm typing a name.
I'm missing Gantt charts, but I saw it's on your roadmap.
Other than that, the app runs super smoothly and I haven't had any other problems. I just wanted to say congrats, it looks amazing, I love it.
Cheers,
Eneko

Hi @eneko-josemadorran-esteiro-boop, may I know how you installed the AppFlowy ARM version on Windows, since we don't provide this option?

The crash happened when I was pasting an embedded file from MS Loop. I fixed it by deleting the local data and logging back in.

Can you also share what type of file caused the crash when you pasted it? It would be better to have a video recording to demonstrate the reproducible steps.

Hello Lucas! I have executed the installation file for Windows 11, and it appears to be functioning through emulation.

At this time, I have uninstalled MS Loop, so I regret that I am unable to provide a video.

However, I do have a comment regarding the Android application. I have constructed a grid containing various columns. The "Description," "drop-down," and "progression" columns are operating correctly. Unfortunately, the "date" column is not functioning as expected. When I attempt to click on a cell to input a date, a blank page appears.

Hi again! I recently deleted a paragraph from a document I created on February 20th, titled "ideas varias," by mistake and I was unable to undo the action. I then attempted to use a backup I created on February 21st, but I am unable to locate the document. In fact, several documents appear to be missing from the backup. Could this be due to a conflict arising from having a free account, which may not support multiple workspaces, or is this a technical issue? Thank you for your assistance with this matter.
