• Ready for iPhone Duo: the app adapts as you fold and unfold, without replaying animations. • Wide screens keep content at a comfortable width, and the Add Debt button no longer covers your cards. • The Payoff Plan timeline shows full debt names instead of cutting them off.

SIRI & SHORTCUTS • New Siri & Shortcuts page in Settings. It lists the phrases you can say for debts, bills, savings goals and challenges, explains how to get started, and suggests ways to use Debt Free in your own shortcuts and automations. It also links straight to Debt Free in the Shortcuts app. Bug Fixes: When you asked Siri to record a payment without naming an amount, the buttons offering your minimum, last payment and full balance could show placeholder text instead of the amounts. They now show each option and its amount.

• Next payment date is back on every unpaid debt in your list. • Overdue debts are flagged clearly — and stay flagged until they're paid. • A skipped month no longer slips by: last month's payment doesn't count as this month's. • The AI Coach no longer suggests questions about debts you've already cleared. • Your average APR counts only what you still owe. • "Hey Siri, record a payment" can offer the minimum, your last payment, or the full balance. • Clearer colours and VoiceOver on the due-date line.

Smarter AI, faster payments, and easier debt setup. • Smarter AI Coach: Ask about your savings goals, upcoming bills, or try “What if I paid more?” scenarios. • On iOS 27, the Coach can also reference payments you’ve already made. • Faster Siri payments :Just say “Record a payment.” No amount needed. Choose your minimum payment, last payment, or full balance. • Scan a statement : Use your camera to scan a credit card or loan statement and quickly fill in the details for a new debt. • Better accessibility: Improved colors, VoiceOver labels, and layouts for larger text sizes. • Fixes & polish : More reliable subscriptions with clearer error messages, correct currency when using Siri, and improved payment reversal so everything is properly restored. Thanks for using Debt Free! If it’s helping you make progress, an App Store review helps others discover it too.

What-If Simulator — windfall fix Adding a one-time windfall (a bonus, tax refund, or extra payment) to a What-If scenario now correctly updates your payoff date and total interest. Previously the windfall was ignored, so the scenario looked the same as your current plan. You'll now see the real impact of putting a lump sum toward your debt — applied to the debt you choose, or automatically to whichever debt your strategy targets first. Easier multi-device recovery Reinstalled the app or set up a new device? DebtFree now automatically restores your household plan from iCloud, and if it needs a hand there's a new "Restore Previous Household" option so you can pick up right where you left off. Clearer syncing across devices Added a helpful reminder when deleting a debt: if you use DebtFree on more than one device, make the change on one and give it a moment to sync before opening the app elsewhere — so your changes stick everywhere. Plus general bug fixes and reliability improvements. Thanks for using DebtFree — we're rooting for you on your debt-free journey.
