• After a comeback, the welcome says hello once and then Home is ready for your day. No extra card to tap away. • Small fixes and polish.

• Free pass: when a step's time is up, Waddle moves on to the next one by itself, with a buzz and a peep. New installs start with it on. Already using Waddle? Flip the small switch at the top of "Which ice today?". • Four new Chill scenes: Sunset fishing, Build a snowman, Lazy float and Connect the stars. Things fill up instead of running out. • The snowball scene has a real crevasse to leap now. • The picture no longer jumps when a step changes.

• Your records now stay with your account. Signing out saves everything to your account first, then clears this phone. Sign back in on any phone and it all comes back. • Been using Waddle without signing in? You'll be asked to sign in once. If the account is new, what's on this phone moves right into it.

• A fresh look for running a routine: the picture up top shows the time left — a melting floe or a rolling snowball — with Done, I need a minute and Skip right below. • The floe is a little different every time: island shapes, sea visitors, weather and time of day. • Opening the app after a day or more away now counts as a comeback — no routine needed first. • A lighter first walk-through: one bubble pointing at one button at a time. Skip it anytime from the top right.

Small fixes for steadier days. Screens now hold up with large text settings. Leaving a routine midway asks first, so a stray back swipe won't end it. Backups got more careful: when the server can't be reached, your records are never overwritten, and one damaged item no longer hides the rest. Deleting your account now also stops announcement notifications.

What kind of penguin are you? Nine quick questions find your type — there are ten, each with its own first routine and a card to share. Already using Waddle? Tap the new card on Home. Share cards got a fresh look too: a bold color card or a receipt of your routine, on any app color or sky. Also new: bolder colors, a menu on every routine card, and press-and-drag to reorder. New on the penguin calendar: your routines, reminders on the days you pick, and task reminders.

Your island got a makeover: more room on the ice, a sky that drifts by, and a penguin with its own ideas about your keepsakes. Try on a few outfits and see what happens.

Invite friends! Share your code from Missions. Your first friend brings a penguin mailbox, and three friends bring a baby seal who lives in your habitat. Furniture now moves like your penguin: press and hold, then drag. On the ice floe timer, your penguin is caught off guard more often when the ice cracks, so you see the escapes up close. On foldables, open the phone and Waddle opens like a book: routines on the left, your penguin on the right, keeping you company during a routine.

Clear my head, rebuilt: spill what's in your head, then drop each line onto a day of your penguin calendar — or let the penguin place them. Split a task into small steps, or chunk a days-long one into pieces on the calendar. A new first-time walk shows it all (skip anytime).

Pick your ice: when you press ▶, choose the ice floe clock or the rolling snowball — or let the penguin surprise you. Home got a little scene: your penguin now stands on a rocking floe beside your numbers. Tap it. Furniture near the bookshelf can be picked up again. Small fixes for narrow phones.

The penguin now walks you through your first routine — it writes the first line for you, and shows you what happens when the timer runs out, how to add a minute, finish early, or skip. Plus a small note from the penguin after your second finish.

Your clear-my-head sessions are kept now. • Penguin calendar — every clear-my-head is filed by the day. Open the ice bookshelf on your penguin's island, or tap "Past clear-outs" when you start a new one. • Break it down — turn any one task into a few small steps, then run them like a routine. Finishing ticks it off everywhere. • The walkthrough's last page lets you tap around freely now. Your archive rides along in your backup, so a new phone picks it up. Also fixed: removing a line in clear-my-head now removes the one you tapped. In the sorted list, a tap lets you edit or remove a line, and pressing and holding moves it. And the welcome walkthrough no longer opens a routine by accident when you reach over to swipe.

Your timer now has a place to be. Each run picks one of two scenes: an ice floe that quietly breaks away as the time passes, or a snowball rolling along beside you. Your penguin is in there, wearing whatever you dressed it in today. Nothing to set up — just press play.

- On iPad, the penguins in the focus gallery were getting cropped at the top. They sit properly in their tiles now. - A tutorial tip could linger on top of the share sheet after you finished a routine. It steps aside now. As always: no streaks, nothing to keep up.

• News, gently: with notifications on, Waddle can now send you the occasional note about new features — written by the maker, never ads. The switch turns it off any time. • A fresh coat of polish under the hood.

A big polish pass, guided by real phones. • Making a routine is one button now — tell the penguin your plan and it writes the steps for you. • Clear-my-head got friendlier: little fish keep you company, and editing a task no longer hides behind the keyboard. • Home feels more alive — colorful fish, and sometimes a friend waddles by. • Swiping between Home and the penguin's island is smooth now, with no replayed animations. • The island always shows your fish count, even at zero. • Signing in on a new phone brings your penguin back exactly as it was — no surprise re-hatching, and backups never mix between accounts.

The shared room got tidier. • Two places to settle instead of four — the fishing hole in the corner for your own quiet clock, and a long desk of computers along the back wall for when the room starts together. The middle of the ice is walking room now, so crossing it no longer sits you down at something you never meant to start. • The focus grid frames everyone close up, so the tiles read as faces rather than figures. • The room code no longer trims itself on wider screens.

One note a day, in the morning A short note each morning about how attention, memory, and motivation actually work. Each one is grounded in research and names the study. They arrive even on days you don't open the app. Change the time whenever you like in notification settings. It starts at 8am. Notifications are now a single switch. If yours is already on, the first note arrives tomorrow morning. Reading material, not medical advice.

Waddle can call you now. Switch notifications on and a routine can tap you on the shoulder at the time you chose. Miss a few days and the penguin just says hello when you come back — no tally, nothing to restore. One switch turns all of it on or off, and it starts off. Every comeback now pitches a tent: the baby penguins on your ice camp together. In the rooms: the fishing hole, the desk and the reading cushion have room for everyone, so nobody stands inside anybody. The countdown before a shared session is shorter, a raised hand goes back down when the table moves on, and wrapping up empties your own seat — only the penguin who opened a session ends it for the room. Waddle uses the whole screen on an iPad now.

Waddle with others is here. Open a room — or join one with a six-letter code — and you are a penguin on a shared floe with up to seven others. Sit at a desk, a fishing hole or a reading cushion, start your routine, and everyone can watch the ring above your head fill in. When you finish, the whole room dances. No camera and no microphone anywhere. Just penguins. You can also link an account now, so your routines and your penguin survive a new phone. Everything still works without one.

There's an egg in your penguin's home. Knock on it — and keep knocking — until it cracks open and a penguin steps out to meet you. It would like a name, if you feel like giving one. Skip it and nothing changes: Waddle reads exactly as it did before, and the pencil beside your penguin is there whenever you change your mind.

Your Waddle can move to a new phone now. Everything in Waddle lives on your phone and nowhere else. Lovely for privacy, awful for new phones — so now you can save a backup. Keep the file wherever you like, paste it back whenever you need, and your routines, your penguin and all its gear come back exactly as they were. Also in this update - Routines you finished today say "Done today". Only for today — nothing to keep alive, nothing waiting to break - The whole app moves more gently now: softer screen changes, a penguin that breathes while you read, and a small nudge where it helps - Clear my head shows you it's listening while you talk - Your drill penguin sits up in the header, one tap away

A polish pass on the widget setup screens. The preview you see while setting up now matches the widget you actually get, and the routine name fits without getting clipped on smaller screens.

Widgets are here. Put Waddle on your Home Screen or Lock Screen — your penguin, your gold, and your next routine, right where you can see them. Tap it and you land straight in the routine, no digging. Also in this update - Gold now lands in your penguin's pocket the moment you finish a routine - Drag your routines into the order you like. The top one is the one your widget shows - Sharing a routine sends just the code now — nothing to trim before you paste it - One less question before you start

A gentle tidy-up release • Small fixes and smoother performance • Freshened up our App Store pages with new screenshots and a preview video Same calm Waddle — no streaks, no guilt
