What's new in Expand 2.3 Never lose track of your account. The sign-in screen now reminds you how you signed in last time, whether with Google, Apple, or email, so it's easier to get back into the right account. Tick "Remember me" to have your email filled in for you. Get ready before your retreat. Before a virtual retreat begins, you'll find a Pre-Course Exercise on the course page. It's the Day Zero "Relax and Expand" meditation, a chance to check your headphones and sound before your program starts. Discussions that follow your progress. Each module's discussion now opens once you've completed that module, just like on the website. For trainers. If you're a trainer on a program, a new trainer view lets you unlock every session or preview the program as participants will see it on any date. Improvements and fixes • Subscribing is easier on smaller screens and with larger text sizes • Courses that showed as available but wouldn't play now open correctly • Your course media and photos now load through secure links • Journal summaries refresh when you change your answers, and the button at the end of a finished course no longer gets stuck
