Fixes​

• Moving a task between goals no longer switches the currently shown task list on mobile
• Today and past dates are now disabled in the dropdown for creating future tasks and reminders in workflows where that option doesn’t make logical sense (i.e. “defer a task until today/yesterday”) and breaks the app’s prioritization system by resetting the task’s age

• The widths of area/goal list (in Tasks) and note list (in Notes) are now kept in sync, preventing visual layout shift when switching between the two sections on desktop
• Goals section below the area picker no longer shows when a selected area has no goals on desktop
• Tomorrow calendar now appears a bit earlier when resizing the calendar on desktop
• Our Markdown editor now auto-links pasted URLs using tel, mailto, ftp, and lunatask protocols

Fixes​

• An experimental set of safeguards, drift corrections and other detection and auto-recovery mechanisms was added to our mobile Markdown editor to prevent glitches like disappearing text, cursor, and other related issues – primarily addressing Android’s IME composition bugs, out-of-order events or broken sequences firings, selection rendering bugs, etc.
• Fixed a regression in a recent rewrite of pickers on desktop, where pressing Tab selected an option instead of simply moving focus to the next element
• The width of various pickers (for status, motivation, etc) was adjusted, addressing sizing regressions after a recent rewrite of pickers on desktop
• Lunatask doesn’t yet support RTL layout – yet on Android, a system-level “best-effort” RTL mode was causing inconsistent and broken UI, so it’s now disabled until proper RTL support is implemented to avoid confusion
• In the Microsoft Store version of the app, the in-app “launch on startup” option has been disabled due to a bug in Electron and now links to Microsoft’s guide for alternative ways of setting startup apps

• You can now close any picker, dropdown, popup, or menu anywhere in the app by pressing Escape on desktop
• Priority picker in task detail on desktop was redesigned a bit to take up less horizontal space
• Chromium runtime was hardened even more by disabling more unnecessary features that are usually enabled by default
• A few new “good morning messages” were added

Fixes​

• The logic for figuring out which time blocks to mark as complete was vastly improved when completing “many-times” habits via the habit tracker itself and not the calendar – fixing seemingly stuck red time badges, etc
• When pressing Escape to close task detail on desktop, the task now correctly remains selected
• Fixed other conflicts where pressing Escape on desktop may have closed not just the currently opened picker, but also the whole task, person detail, etc.

• Minor data sync improvements on mobile, onboarding, and other internal changes and upgrades

Fixes​

• Auto-lock is back! The issues that previously caused this feature to be temporarily disabled are now fixed – protected notebooks, journal, and relationship tracker now properly lock when you background or close the mobile app.
• Fixed a regression where pressing Escape wouldn’t close the quick-entry mood tracking and journaling popup on desktop
• Addressed reported issues of existing tasks sometimes displaying as blank after adding additional new tasks on mobile

Improvements​

• Our desktop app now remembers scroll position when switching between notes or going elsewhere in the app and then back
• You can now long-press any area or goal in the area picker to open its settings on mobile
• You can now press Escape to defocus the editor when editing notes, so shortcuts for navigating to next note or delete current one are immediately available again
• Minor naming and help text changes

Fixes​

• Fixed annoying scroll to the end of a note when placing a cursor at the start of a line and being just a few pixels off
• Fixed red area badge incorrectly showing also for tasks in archived goals
• Fixed duplicating a task from logbook keeping previously assigned priority

Improvements​

• Added new “Extended family” relationship category for those with larger families, where a single “Family” category may not be enough
• In area settings, you can now configure where newly created tasks are initially placed when using “Plan Your Days” workflow (whether in “today” or “later”), to mirror a similar setting available in “Now/Later” and “Kanban” workflows

Fixes​

• This update also includes several attempts and workarounds to fix labels across the app being cut off on some Android devices

Improvements​

• Email address suggestions now show up above the keyboard on login screen on iOS
• We now use a numeric one-time sign-in code and allow iOS to fill it in from the login email automatically
• “Today” tasks no longer show a grey “Today” badge in the “Next to work on” overview when using “Plan Your Days” workflow, as it has been somewhat redundant
• Improved workflow of syncing last reconnect date with the date of newly added happy memory in a person’s profile – our desktop app now asks you if you’d like to update it only after you enter the name of the memory for a more natural flow

Fixes​

• Fixed viewport-sizing regression when switching to logbook from “Next to work on” overview on desktop
• Fixed some buttons with confirmation dialogs in our desktop app not working after the last update (e.g. buttons to delete calendar integrations)
