  • I am on the latest ActivityWatch version.
  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
  • OS name and version: MacOS Sequoia 15.4
  • ActivityWatch version: v0.13.2

Describe the bug

The setting described in ActivityWatch/aw-watcher-window#99 does not work.

To Reproduce

  1. Click on aw-qt system tray, click ‘Open config folder’
  2. Open the aw-watcher-window/aw-watcher-window.toml with text editor.
  3. Modified #exclude_title = false to exclude_title = true.
  4. Quit ActivityWatch by clicking on aw-qt system tray, and clicking ‘Quit ActivityWatch’
  5. Restart the app.
  6. See that the newly logged activity still has window titles logged and recorded through the dashboard / timeline webUI.

Expected behavior

The newly logged activity has the window titles redacted,excluded.
