Changelog

What's new in Cadence. Every update, from the latest release back to day one.

1.3.4 5 May 2026 Latest 6 changes
  • New Geo-fence reminders (v0) -- opt-in, location-based reminders so a dose can prompt you when you arrive home or somewhere you've chosen, configured in Settings
  • New Symptom logging via tap-region body map -- tap a body region to record where a symptom is felt, alongside severity
  • New Monthly review prompt and sheet -- a once-a-month nudge to look back over the past month, with a dedicated review sheet
  • New "30 days ago you..." lookback card -- Insights surfaces what was happening a month ago so you can see how things have shifted
  • New Per-symptom detail -- tap any symptom in Insights to open a focused view of that symptom over time
  • Improved Scan Prescription Label promoted -- the label-scan button now sits at the top of the Add Medication form for new entries, so it's the first thing you reach for
1.3.3 1 May 2026 15 changes
  • Removed Retired surfaces -- the "Took with food" toggle, the "Daily Check-in" prompt card on Today and the "Quiet mode" setting are gone. Low-energy mode stays
  • New Tap the rhythm score for a breakdown -- see how each component (recent adherence, streak, timing, journal) contributes to your number, with the weights and personal scores laid out as bars
  • New Per-medication symptom heatmap -- the symptoms-vs-medications chart now gives each medication its own row of daily squares with a vertical line on the start date, so the question "did symptoms appear after this medication" reads off the page
  • New Distinct Today states -- in-progress, all-done and missed each get their own hero treatment, with a warm amber recovery tone for missed (never red, never shame) and softer "catch up" copy
  • New Evening close moment -- a calm "all set for today" overlay fires once a day the first time every dose is logged. Quiet, not confetti
  • New Doctor report prompt -- when you have enough history (14+ days) and an appointment is likely on the horizon, Insights surfaces a card to generate the one-page summary directly, instead of hiding it in Settings
  • New "Adapted" badges on dose cards -- when SmartTimingEngine has shifted a reminder to match when you actually take a dose, the chip on Today now spells the offset ("Adapted +6m") so the magic isn't invisible
  • New Severity ramp on symptom rows -- five dots show average severity at a glance; "X days, last 5d ago" replaces the gym-set "X x" notation
  • Improved Symptoms-vs-meds chart narrates the data -- "First symptoms logged 4 days after starting Paracetamol" replaces the generic "load is steady" headline when the data shows clustering, with a "discuss with your doctor" caveat. Chart zooms to where the data lives instead of 90 days of empty space
  • Improved Period comparison only fires when meaningful -- "Down 17 points vs April" replaces "Down 17% from last period", and the comparison stays quiet when the current period is barely started
  • Improved Journal section consolidated -- Symptoms, Medication Effects (now Mood Highlights) and the "log more" hint merged into one card. Bottom of the Journal tab is two cards instead of four
  • Improved Cross-screen labelling reconciled -- "Avg X mins late" / "most missed" / "X days" wording is consistent on every tab, "Avg mood 3.0" now reads "3.0 / 5", and the cryptic "=" icon is gone in favour of a clean horizontal line
  • Improved Trial pill is calmer -- the orange "Pro Trial / Upgrade" banner on Today is now a slim neutral pill so it doesn't compete with the dose action target or share orange with the DUE NOW state
  • Improved "Back to Today" no longer overlaps content -- bottom padding bumps when the floating pill is showing
  • Improved Mood calendar de-duplicated -- the redundant in-card monthly grid is gone; the 12-week heatmap at the top of Journal carries that story
  • Improved SmartTiming explained in Settings -- per-medication detail now shows the actual adapted reminder time and sample count, instead of a generic "your reminders have been adjusted"
  • Improved Health tab no longer triple-counts -- positive metric trends (sleep up, HRV up etc) used to render as a top-level factor card AND as a Baseline Changes row AND on the metric's own card. Now lives only on the Health tab where you'd look for it
1.3.2 28 April 2026 19 changes
  • New Quick-add wizard -- adding a new medication is now a 4-tap flow for the common case, with the full form one tap away for tapering, intervals and supply
  • New Today's Capacity -- a forward-looking indicator combining recent sleep, mood, symptom load and adherence, with a contributors breakdown
  • New Emotion wheel -- optional richer mood logging with pleasant/unpleasant by high/low energy quadrants and a specific emotion word

  • New Evening journal flow -- 6-step paginated check-in (feel, emotion, energy, symptoms, context, note) with an expanded symptom list
  • New Morning check-in -- log sleep quality, wake mood and wake energy at the start of the day
  • New Mood heatmap -- 12-week tappable calendar; tap any day for a Bad Day Analysis comparing it against your 14-day baseline
  • New Symptom timeline -- 90-day weighted symptom view overlaid with medication start markers
  • New Weekly Story -- Sunday narrative tying together the week's mood, adherence, sleep and gratitude
  • New Milestone postcards -- shareable polaroid-style landscape captures of each Journey milestone
  • New Coastal year-2 biome -- fresh palette of teals, sand, lapis and warm dawn for your second year on the Journey
  • New Settings search -- inline search across settings with smart aliases ("caregiver" finds "family / share / partner")
  • New Side-effect prompts -- gentle 14-day prompt after starting a new medication, dismissible per medication
  • Improved Journey is now distance-based -- your landscape progresses with the days you log doses, not your streak. Missing a day no longer drops you back to Trailhead
  • Improved Notification staggering -- multiple medications due at the same time no longer get collapsed by iOS into a single banner
  • Improved 24-hour time -- locale-aware formatting so AU, UK and EU users see 24-hour time throughout the app
  • Improved Calendar strip from day one -- the day navigator on Today is visible from your first day, not gated behind three days of use
  • Improved Discoveries deep dive -- sort by strength, certainty or recency, filter by same-day or delayed correlations, with a visual confidence indicator
  • Improved Insights first load -- skeleton placeholder replaces the blank state while data is loading
  • Improved Gentler journal framing -- "X of last 7 days" replaces the journal streak badge to take the edge off streak-break shame
