Dawn to Dusk Software has released the first version of QRecall, a backup and archival utility. The software records information incrementally, keeping previous versions of files intact; through a timeline, users can view the history of updates and retrieve older files as necessary. Archives can further be saved on any kind of non-optical media, including everything from USB flash drives to networked storage. This is partly because the program records data instead of merely files, allowing users to be extremely selective and avoid duplicating files in their entirety.

An automation assistant lets users schedule daily, weekly or fixed-schedule backups, as well ones triggered by particular events, such as logging out or connecting an external drive. To simplify setup, the Capture Assistant can arrange a routine after a user has answered a few questions. QRecall is currently priced at $30, and requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later.
