     -no more option to save data internally -> ALWAYS save report_data.json internally
 *-update project title -> should update recently used data
     -this sort of works, something is wrong with the upgrade process where the UUID is not brought over properly; need to test and fix (maybe fixed already and my dataset is wrong?)
+*-add dropdown to Add Items button to have add items from folder and remove choose working folder option (data always saved internally)
+    -not going to do this; they can always select multiple items from the current picker
 -Now that the BaseFolder is always internal...update options for PDF output location
     -output in internal dir (default)
     -always ask me every time (opens save file picker after generating PDF to ask user where they want it)
     -always put in X folder (uses existing option)
--add dropdown to Add Items button to have add items from folder and remove choose working folder option (data always saved internally)
 -add option to backup added files to internal data directory (always on for iOS)
 -make backup of last generated PDF somewhere
 -iOS-specific (MAUI essentials?)
