What’s new
Version 1.9.3 · Updated October 21, 2026
• Streak protection, explained — if a streak freeze was used automatically on a day you missed, you’ll now see a banner telling you which day was saved and how many freezes you have left this month. • Fresher home screen — a new gradient background and smoother scrolling. • Clearer errors — if a gratitude note can’t be saved, we now tell you why (for example, the journal was removed, or you’re going too fast). • Notes stay up to date — journals now refresh properly after reopening the app, and note numbering is more accurate. • Bug fixes and stability improvements.
