Bug ID: 496891
Summary: Rename Autosave feature to Revovery Flle
Classification: Applications
Product: krita
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: All
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Usability
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Basically every week a [user reports loosing their
progress}(https://krita-artists.org/t/autosave-file-disappearing/108389)
because they don't understand that the auto save does not create a proper save.
I mentioned this on [krita-artists
already](https://krita-artists.org/t/rename-auto-save-functionality-to-recovery-file-in-ui/93769).
It happens often enough that people mistake the auto save for a legit save and
don't understand what it actually does. I believe this can be fixed by simply
renaming the *auto save* feature to *recovery save*, because that's what it
really is, that's the purpose of the file and a better name for the feature. It
is not an automatic save like other applications do it, that persists between
sessions.
I can completely understand the user's confusion and believe a simple change in
terminology can prevent that confusion.
