Hi Hercules Team,

I’ve been using Hercules.app and would like to suggest two features to improve the app transfer and project management experience:

1. **Add an “Import Project” Option** Currently, under the “Transfer” section, there is only an option to export a project. It would be incredibly helpful to have a corresponding “Import Project” feature. This would allow users to seamlessly bring in existing projects, templates, or backups directly into their workspace without needing complex workarounds.

2. **Reduce the App Transfer Lock-in Period to 7 Days** The current 30-day lock-in period for app transfers is a bit restrictive and slows down the development workflow. Reducing this lock-in period to 1 week (7 days) would provide much better agility for developers and teams who need to move projects between accounts or workspaces more efficiently, while still preventing spam or abuse.

Thank you for considering this feedback!

Thank you for the feedback! We have noted both requests and are always looking for ways we can improve the app for our users. Appreciate your thoughts.
