Say hello to Today. Your home is now a place to meet real, verified people - each day a small table of members who read and wrote on the same passage you did. You meet their mind in their own words before you ever see a face, then write to connect. No endless feed, no swiping. You can also now choose the values you'd like weighted when your table is set - faith (including Christian), family, sobriety and more. These are soft preferences that shape who comes up first; they never hide anyone. Profiles show much more depth, and a quiet, opt-in "Sought after" marker appears on members who receive a lot of genuine messages - never a ranking or a leaderboard.

Reach someone by writing to them. Read what a member wrote in the margins, then send them a Note - a few honest sentences, instead of a swipe. When they write back, a private thread opens between you, with voice notes, photos and reactions. Your Letters tab now holds the notes written to you and every thread you've opened. Plus per-thread Report and Block, real conversation deletion, and a quiet scam-pattern shield that warns you - never the sender.

Clearer, more accurate privacy wording. We corrected text in the app and in our Privacy Policy that described our anti-bot face check as permanent. It is not: the anonymized signature we keep to block bots and banned members auto-erases after three years, and you can erase it yourself at any time from Settings > Privacy. No feature, data, or behavior changed - only the wording, which now matches what the app actually does.

Your page, in your words. Your profile now leads with your writing - your first name, verified seal, and written reflections up top, photos below. Answer written prompts so people meet your mind before your face, plus early groundwork for values-based matching.

Privacy update. We keep face-verification data only as long as needed to keep bots and banned users out: a purpose-locked signature that automatically erases on a published 3-year schedule, is never sold or shared, and is never used to track you. You can erase your own signature anytime from Settings > Privacy. We also rewrote the verification consent screen in plain language.

Our reading rooms, margins, circles, and correspondence now run on our live backend, saving and updating in real time. Safety is stronger: report or block from a visible one-tap control on every piece of writing, a new Blocked Members list to review and unblock, and every report now on a 24-hour review clock.

This update is under-the-hood housekeeping. We removed a large amount of unused legacy code and improved accessibility across the app - better VoiceOver labels, Dynamic Type support, and Reduce Motion handling on every screen. Nothing changes about how you sign up, verify, or connect.

Housekeeping: we corrected the app name shown on your Home Screen and tidied some version details behind the scenes. No changes to features.
