Your day, your way

Most supplement apps assume your day looks like theirs: breakfast, lunch, dinner, bed. Yours probably doesn't. This release is mostly about letting you say so.

Your day, your way

Settings has a new section called Your Day. Rename your time blocks, change when they start, reorder them, add one, remove one. If you train at six in the morning or eat your first meal at two in the afternoon, the Almanac can now be told that instead of guessing.

A block you add turns up on your home screen straight away, before you have put anything in it, and you can fill it from there.

Adding a block also prompts a rethink. The Almanac looks at your whole stack again, not just the new block, and offers to move anything that would sit better in it. It tells you why each move helps, so you can disagree.

It will also tell you when your day has no room for something. Add a supplement that wants an empty stomach and the Almanac will say so plainly if there is no window for it, rather than quietly putting it next to a meal where it works less well.

Apple Health in one tap

Connecting Apple Health used to be a ten step build. Now it is a single tap, and once it is set up it stays set up. Steps, resting heart rate and sleep flow into your record on their own.

More ways to be reminded

Reminders can now reach you by SMS, alongside Telegram and WhatsApp. Pick whichever you actually read.

Your record, your call

A few things you asked for, all in the same spirit.

• Delete your own health data whenever you like.
• Change or clear your eating window from the Bio tab, as often as your routine changes.
• Read what changed in the app without leaving it. Release notes now live in Settings, under About.
• Cycle tracking is available on Progress for anyone who wants to see their stack alongside it.

A clearer advisor

The Almanac Advisor repeats itself less and says what it means more.

• It will not suggest the same change twice just because it worded it differently the second time.
• Ask it to add something already in your stack and you get a button that does the right thing, whether that is a second time of day or a dose change.
• Interaction notes say what kind of interaction they are, rather than leaving a colour to carry it.

Easier to use

Buttons and tap targets are bigger, the focus outline is visible against the background, and the app now follows your system setting for reduced motion. Small things, but they are the difference between usable and not if you rely on them.

All of this is live now. Open the app and it is there.
