I’ve made some changes to the GTK app to make it easier to use. There are now 3 UI modes — easy, advanced and expert.
The Easy mode shows a single page in navigation panel named “Backup” or “Restore”. This page has options for one-click backup (All Items) that was there in previous version of Aptik. This mode is recommended for first time users and for users who don’t want to go into the finer details of what is being backed-up or restored.

Options were added for comparing text files. Selected file is taken as first file for comparison.

Diffuse will be used if Beyond Compare is not found.
Battery Monitor v17.12 is now available.
The dashboard now displays battery health. This is normally 100% for a new battery, and slowly degrades with time. For example, my two-year old laptop shows a health of 78%, which indicates that only 78% of the original capacity is left. Average life has also reduced to ~8 hours compared to ~10 hours when it was new.
