• 25 new stages (426-450): a noodle kitchen, a tofu house, a pearl farm, a shearing barn, an ice-fishing camp, an ice-cream parlour and nine more. • Fixed: the game sometimes didn't come back after you closed an ad, and posting a daily score could get stuck.

• 25 new stages (401-425): a charcoal kiln, a salt flat, an apiary and twelve more places where things are made by hand. • Each new picture has its own texture — still water, rough straw, fine thread — so pieces stand apart even when colours are close. • Weekly prizes: 3 show + 3 auto hints for the weekly daily winner; 3/2/1 auto hints for the stage board's top 3. Names change colour past 2,000 and 3,000 stages. • Fixed: the update prompt and what's-new card no longer open together.

• Fixed: when two pictures are completed back to back, the second one no longer swells at the wrong speed. • A new app icon.

• The new friends go all the way. The sea bunny, clione and blobfish now appear in every picture, to stage 400. • Pictures on a board were given colours that differ from one another, so you can see which picture a piece came from. • Forty pictures were redrawn, fixing sets whose colours ran together.

• New attendance calendar: every day you drop by gets a stamp, and every second day pays a Show or Auto hint. • Missed a day? One day a week won't break your streak. • The leaderboard has a new "This week" tab — a week of daily challenge scores, added up. • Medals for distance: silver at stage 500, and a gold one for every 1,000 stages.

• Your own photo can be a position board now — one photo, sixteen pieces. • New friends in stages 1-220 — a sea bunny, a clione and a blobfish. • A set finished by a hint says COMBO! too — and now costs one move. • In your collection, a group's three tiles now show three different friends. • Fixed: cards no longer look picked for a moment after a hint, and a stage reopened from Records now starts fresh every time.

• Your own photo can be a position board now — one photo, sixteen pieces. • New friends in stages 1-220 — a sea bunny, a clione and a blobfish. • A set finished by a hint says COMBO! too — and now costs one move. • In your collection, a group's three tiles now show three different friends.

• New friends in stages 1-150 — a sea bunny, a clione and a blobfish. • Every position puzzle has new art. • Replaying today's challenge no longer shows an ad. • On the daily, hints no longer cost you your combo — or your score. • On other stages, a hint no longer breaks your combo chain. • Fixed a rare case where combo points were added twice.

• Finish a stage and see the pictures you assembled. First-time ones are marked NEW. • Pieces click as they join. • After an update, a quick note on what changed. • New players get shown how to play, right on the board. • 25 new stages — up to stage 400, with 2,160 pictures in all.

• Replay stages — pick one you have cleared from Records and go for a better score. Your place in the game does not move. • The Gallery is now Records, and the home button shows your stars. • Ordinary stages show your score beside the clock — watch it jump on a combo. • Reminders arrive once a day, alternating lunchtime and evening. • Adding your own photos shows progress while they copy. • Fixed: the star count not moving after a stage, and added photos reading as zero.

* Stages have stars Clear a stage and see your result, rated one to three stars from your moves, your time, and your combos. * Combos count now Combos finally add to your score on stages too — and clearing several at once pays more than one at a time. * 75 new stages 300 to 375, with the gallery growing to 225 sets. * Stars in the gallery See the stars and your best run for every picture set. * Yesterday's results name the winners Your rank now comes with the top three and their scores. * A lighter app 43MB smaller, with no change to picture quality. * Fresh daily challenge pictures Every day now draws from the whole library. Also fixed: players outside the top three were being told they had finished 3rd in English. They no longer are.

A new way to play: Arrange. Every fifth board is one picture cut into 16 pieces. Nothing clears away — put every piece back where it belongs. 70 new pictures, painted for this mode alone. Stuck? The Where and Look buttons above are there to help. And if you entered yesterday's Daily Challenge, you now hear where you placed — top three or not.

You can now remove the full-screen ads. One purchase in Settings and the ad between stages is gone for good. The small banner at the bottom stays. Fixed daily challenge scores that could come out higher than they should.

405 more pictures. That is 300 stages before one comes round again.

A free hint button on the game screen. Tap it and four pieces that could clear right now get outlined. Two free taps, then one more per rewarded ad. 234 pictures were redrawn — a few sets made it hard to tell which picture a loose piece belonged to.

The top 3 on the leaderboard now get a medal, and the daily board tells you the top 3 win hints. A picture gallery — every image you finish stays there, one by one.

45 more pictures. That is 225 stages before one comes round again. 135 of the older ones were redrawn — several sets were too dark to read a piece from. More pictures now start already matched when a stage opens, and it stays that generous well past the early stages.

Small clean-up under the hood.

Combos are here. Clear a set, then clear another within 4 moves — keep it going and it counts up. In the daily challenge a combo adds to your score, and the score now shows while you play. On timed stages you get seconds back instead. 135 new pictures. That is 200 stages before one comes round again. An evening reminder on days you have not played the daily challenge yet — switch it off in settings whenever you like. The opening screen has a new look.

Fixed a board that could run out of matchable pictures and get stuck, and a hint that could be spent without doing anything.

The daily challenge is kinder now. • Time limit raised from 5 minutes to 6 • Hints are available — one free, one more for an ad Cards move honestly too: no more matching before they have landed, and no more pieces swapping out of nowhere.

Bug fixes and stability improvements.
