File sizes and storage quotas

I want to …

… know which files Zeitlicht accepts and where the limits sit.

Before you start

  • Uploading files needs Pro or Ultra.
  • The same limits apply in the app and on the server.
  • Storage is in Frankfurt.

Here's how

  1. Images (png, jpg, gif, webp, heic), documents (pdf, txt, md, csv, docx, xlsx, pptx, zip, …), and unknown types: 10 MB per file.
  2. Video and audio (mp4, mov, webm, mp3, wav, …): 50 MB.
  3. Per task or note: 10 attachments and 75 MB combined.
  4. The workspace quota follows the plan of the Owner: Pro 5 GB per seat, Ultra 25 GB per seat. A Free workspace shows 250 MB.
  5. Zeitlicht compresses images by default to a 2560 px edge at quality 80. Upload original skips that.
  6. Blocked types include executables, scripts, html, svg, and Office files with macros (docm, xlsm, pptm).
  7. From 80 percent of the workspace quota the settings row warns.

The result

You know before an upload whether type and size fit, and why an upload was rejected.

Common questions

Why is SVG blocked?

SVG can carry executable content. Zeitlicht does not accept it.

Does a cancelled upload count?

No. Cancel upload removes the unfinished attempt.
