Stack Almanac now places supplements at the right time

Stack Almanac now picks the best time of day for a supplement the moment you add it. Add magnesium and it lands in the evening. Add a fat-soluble vitamin and it goes with a meal. Add a stimulant and it stays in the morning. You no longer drop everything into the first slot and sort it out by hand on the Today page.

How does Stack Almanac decide when to take a supplement?

Stack Almanac reads what each supplement is and places it in the time block that suits it. The same logic that already warned you about awkward timing now runs the moment a supplement enters your routine, so the right placement is the default instead of something you fix later.

It works for every way a supplement reaches your list: search, bottle scan, onboarding, and adopting a recommended routine. Magnesium settles into the evening, fat-soluble vitamins go with a meal, stimulants stay in the morning, and anything that would clash with what you already take is kept out of a bad slot.

When you add a supplement from the catalogue, a short note tells you where it went and why, for example "Added to Wind-Down, magnesium settles best in the evening." If you would rather it sat somewhere else, a one-tap Change lets you move it on the spot. The app suggests, you stay in control.

What happens when I adopt a whole routine?

Adopting a recommended routine now places every supplement in the right block in one step. Before, a routine of six or seven supplements arrived stacked in a single slot, and you sorted them out one at a time. Now the morning items go to the morning, the evening items go to the evening, and absorption clashes are spread apart, all at once. You get a sensible day-one schedule without the manual tidy-up.

What can I see after scanning a supplement?

Scanned supplements now show their label details on the detail page: ingredients, serving size, servings per container, and suggested use. While Stack Almanac looks up anything the photo missed, the page shows a clear "researching" state instead of an empty screen, so you always know what is happening.

Scanning is also more reliable and more accurate. Adding a scanned bottle now saves as a single step, so an entry is either fully added or not added at all, with nothing left half-finished. And the same supplement scanned under slightly different names ("CoQ10", "Coenzyme Q10", "Co-Q-10") now collapses to one entry, so your catalogue stays clean.

How do I see these changes?

Open Stack Almanac and add a supplement any way you like. The placement note and the one-tap Change appear as soon as you add from the catalogue, and the detail-page label info shows up on your scanned supplements. Everything is live now, with nothing to switch on.
