New Features

• Support for multi-file merging has been added. When a second file is added after dragging and dropping a file, duplicate data is automatically removed and merged with the existing list. This allows multiple files to be consolidated and managed within a single unified list.
• Full compatibility has been ensured with vCard standards RFC 6350 (vCard 4.0), RFC 2426 (vCard 3.0), and vCard 2.1.

• The VCF file loading infrastructure has been simplified by removing the two-stage unfold mechanism and switching to a raw line processing model.
• A data change tracking system has been introduced. Modifications across all input fields are monitored, and users are notified of unsaved changes.
• An auto-save system has been implemented. When switching between contacts, memory data is updated automatically, and unsaved changes prompt a confirmation dialog upon closing the form.
• An intelligent field comparison mechanism has been added to the auto-save process. Unmodified fields are preserved, enabling faster editing workflows.
• E.164 normalization support has been added for phone numbers. vCard 4.0 TEL URI format is now generated automatically.

• When focused on the contacts list, pressing the Tab key now moves to the next user. Pressing Tab at the end of the list loops back to the first entry.
• The TS Preloader loading bar has been rebuilt using our modern TS Custom Controls graphics library, developed entirely in-house. As a result, the loading bar now features a smooth, rounded design consistent with the Windows 11 aesthetic.
• [TS Updater] A new validation algorithm has been added to check whether the target application is currently running before the update process begins.
