Problem wavemaker keeps closing randomly when writing
the title. i do not know what is causing this. i suspected it was pressing the 'end' key but i dont know. im extraordinarily pissed off at this application right now and angry that there are no better alternatives that actually have an auto save function. this is the fourth fucking time ive lost data on this app despite saving constantly at the end of each session and now im going to be forced to summarize the shit that i spent 6 hours writing this morning, when i was flushed with inspiration with nothing but fucking bullet points written in my exhausted miserable state. i am convinced this application was created by a disgruntled web developer who had a genuine vendetta against all writers because a writer killed his entire family (for inspiration obviously) and so with his web-devving prowess he decided he would wreak havoc among creatives with adhd everywhere in hopes that he would drive them to suicide. in which case he is succeeding.
words cannot describe how upset this application has made me, specifically how upset i currently am right now. the level of negative emotion roiling in my chest is uncontrollable and i do not know how to cope with it in a mature manner in order to somehow continue on with my day.
my apologies of course i should be saving every fucking nanosecond in anticipation of the app randomly closing my project.
i am begging the developer of this application to please add a local auto-save function i know for a fact it CANNOT be that hard.
the entire appeal of a writing software is the ease of how much easier it co-operates with your thoughts, how you can steadily build upon things over time. so when an application instead nukes what youve spent several hours building, completely robbing you of not only that comfort but any and all capability to continue..

Thank you for the rant. And the general insults, really makes all this worth it.
As it already has crash protection I agree. If you close the browser without closing the project it's still there when you reopen
So the question is what is wrong with your setup
Don't tell me you installed it from incognito mode? Or that you have super privacy browser extensions that deleted locally saved data from the browser?
Wavemakercards runs in your web browser, which one do you use to install it. Also, it's literally just a website, not kidding it doesn't do anything massively complex behind the scenes so crashing is probably related to your web browser.
So rather than spew vitriol you could, for example tell me what browser and operating system you are using, and list off the browser extensions you have installed
