What is new in CrocApp 1.2.1
### Fixed - A send of thousands of files with **Confirm on Both Sides** on no longer hangs after you tap **Send** when the other device stops answering or you tap **Cancel**. The transfer ends and CrocApp is ready for the next one. - Sharing to CrocApp twice before opening it no longer loses the first share. Each share waits its turn in the **Shared Files** sheet. - A share that arrives while a transfer is running is kept and offered in the **Shared Files** sheet once the transfer ends, instead of being dropped. If the sheet is already open, **Send** is off until then. - The copies CrocApp keeps of shared files are deleted once they are sent, rather than an hour later. - On a Mac, a receive folder you chose is kept when it is moved or its drive mounts again, instead of quietly going back to Downloads/CrocApp. If CrocApp can no longer open it at all, **Settings** now says the folder was reset. - Receiving a text longer than 1 MB now says **This text is too long** and suggests sending it as a file, instead of a general failure that suggested trying again. ### Security - The transfer engine is built with Go 1.27.4, which fixes a `net/http` vulnerability (GO-2026-6859).
