• A step-by-step kombucha guide: a short video for every step, with the amounts for your batch size, timings, tips and what to watch out for. • Videos in articles play again. • Fixed Home sometimes freezing after subscribing to Fermento+. • "Ask Fermento" from Siri and Spotlight opens your question in the assistant again. • Ready for iOS 27.

• The Live Activity now shows your brew's full phase timeline — current-phase progress and how long each phase takes — instead of a plain countdown.

• Fixed the sharing card looking cramped on ferments with a very short phase. • Exporting your brew history as a PDF is now part of Fermento+.

• Fermento+: an optional subscription that lifts the one-brew-at-a-time limit, unlocks the Monthly AI Report, removes the one-custom-source cap on the assistant, and makes your roadmap vote count three times. Restore purchases from Settings. • Monthly AI Report: at the start of each month, Fermento looks back at what you brewed, how it turned out, and which measurements you never logged that would have explained it. Written on your phone, kept for as long as you like, and attachable to a chat. • Ferment cards: turn any finished brew into a story or square image with its name, days, phases, rating and tasting profile, plus your own photo. Offered right after finishing and from any brew in your history. • Report an assistant answer: a flag in the chat drafts an email with the conversation, exactly what the model saw, and your device details, so a wrong answer can be fixed. • Sharper assistant answers: simple questions get a short reply, troubleshooting gets a proper diagnosis, and a logged temperature now says plainly whether it is below, within or above the recipe's range. • On iPhones with Apple Intelligence, assistant answers stream word by word, and Fermento recognises the more capable on-device model that arrives with iOS 27. • The kombucha recipe explains what a healthy batch looks like versus one that has gone bad, and gives ideal rather than merely safe temperatures. • Fixes: tour cards no longer hide behind the tab bar, and the What's New sheet scrolls when it has a lot to say.

• Every tab now introduces itself with a guided tour instead of a single banner: Brews, Recipes, Journey, History, Ideas and Settings. • Tours highlight one feature at a time over the real screen, and scroll to whatever they are pointing at. • The Brews tour now covers brew cards, logging, Siri Shortcuts, the assistant and roadmap voting, not just starting a brew. • New tours explain things that were never introduced anywhere: recipe filters and custom recipes, the skill tree, coach insights and the weekly digest, history statistics and achievements, article filters, sorting, liking and saving, and the temperature preferences. • Tours have a Back button and a step counter, so a step can be re-read. • Settings lists every tour and replays any of them, or all of them at once. • The temperature, lid and next-step sections on a brew card can each be hidden, and hiding is remembered for that brew alone — keep the lid answer on a pressure-bottled ginger beer and drop it from the sauerkraut you have made forty times. • A control at the foot of the same card brings hidden sections back and names what it will restore. Hiding used to be a one-way door whose only undo was an app-wide switch buried in Settings. • Settings can restore hidden sections on every brew at once.

• Every phase now tells you what to close the vessel with: a breathable cloth, a loose lid, an airlock, or an airtight lid. • When a phase is airtight, Fermento says whether the pressure has to be released and whether the jar or bottle has to be rated for pressure. • Bottling phases name the vent schedule, and you can turn on burp reminders at that interval in one tap. • Every phase says what going wrong looks like: what happens if you seal a kombucha, suffocate a tempeh, or bottle a ginger beer too sweet. • Every phase now has a clear finish: what to taste or look for, the steps to move the batch on, and an objective check where one exists, like two matching hydrometer readings before you bottle a beer. • Completing a phase shows the handoff steps and the next phase's vessel before you confirm, so the right bottle is ready first. • Starting a batch shows the vessel the first phase needs, next to the container field. • Recipes list the vessel and the handoff for every phase, so you can read the whole run before you start. • The assistant now answers lid and vessel questions from this data instead of inferring them.

• Brew hints are rebuilt: every hint now comes from Fermento's own fermentation dataset, so the temperature limits, phase timings and pH targets it quotes are the ones for your ferment and your current phase. • Hints appear on every device now, with or without the AI model pack downloaded. • Hints refresh once a day instead of on every visit, or every two hours for fast ferments like kefir and yogurt, and there is a Regenerate button when you want a new one sooner. • Each hint shows when it was written. • When a batch is past its window, in cold storage, or you have tasted it sharp, the hint offers an idea for using it. • The assistant answers food-safety questions instead of declining them: whether growth is mould or kahm yeast, what an acetone or sulfur smell means, where botulism risk actually sits, and how to handle pressure and bottling safely. • Four new safety articles in Ideas covering the same ground, written from USDA, CDC, NCHFP and university extension guidance. • The assistant no longer answers questions about one ferment using articles about another. • Articles show how many people liked them, and can be sorted by most liked.

• Batch tracking: record how many jars, the container size, and the ingredients when you start a brew. • Recipe ingredients are pre-filled automatically, with quantities and units you can adjust. • Edit finished brews: rename them, change the rating, and correct batch details or ingredients from history. • Total volume brewed now appears in your statistics. • Eight new achievements for batch tracking and volume milestones, from your first 10 liters to 500. • Suggested temperature ranges now show in both Celsius and Fahrenheit, and the assistant knows them too. • What's New now catches you up on every release you missed, not just the most recent one.
