A new focus page shows your week, month or year, with your lantern days in gold. The Shop is now a wooden cabinet, and you can wear what you own straight from it.

Blocked apps now unblock the moment a session ends. If a block ever stayed up after you left, that's fixed. Also in this version: a quicker, warmer end to every session. A calmer sky in the grove, and small fixes throughout.

A shorter first step: 15-minute sits in the grove. See who is sitting with you. Every companion in the grove wears its owner's name, and a tap opens a small card about them. Fireworks when you light your lantern, in the grove and the garden. The sky keeps time with your sit: a sun that crosses, a moon that rises, stars that come out. Leaving is one clear button, with a gentle pause before you go. The garden has a new blossom floor, with petals drifting down. Reminders now know when you last sat, and never nudge more than once a day. Fixes and polish throughout.

The grove fills straight away now. Anyone who joins while you are sitting appears on their own, without you having to close and reopen the app. Deep focus shows your companion on the blocked app screen, instead of a plain mark. Settings scrolls properly, so changing your display name no longer pushes the save button off screen. New colours on the shop's shelves, and a layout fix on the companion pages.

Your companion now sits with you on the lock screen, with your time remaining. Set a daily reminder at a time you pick, from the end of a session or from Settings. The garden now gets the same gentle card as the grove when you end a session early, and the same reminder offer. While your collection is still growing, eggs bring companions you have not met yet. More names, a warmer Home when you have been away, a way to send us a note from Settings, and fixes for swiping in the garden.

The gate is here. Close it when you sit, and the apps you choose wait outside until your session ends. If you need them back early, leave the session; the gate opens, and your focused minutes still count. The gate is optional and never closes on its own. It uses Screen Time on your device, and Vana never sees which apps you choose. Also in this version: small fixes and a little more warmth throughout.

Vana now opens with an egg. New focusers hatch a companion, name them, and settle into their first session in about a minute. For everyone already here: warmer tab bar colors, honest first-session copy, and a bag of small fixes.

Renaming a pet and swiping to another page no longer leaves the keyboard stuck open. The Garden now always opens calm, rather than back in the middle of choosing a length or decorating.

Your egg no longer goes missing when a session finishes with your phone face down. It's waiting for you on the meadow when you come back. Messages and controls now sit where they belong, so they're easier to read and tap. The grove runs lighter during long sessions.

Your companion's scarves, collars and bow ties were hiding behind their chin. They're back where they belong. Vana now runs on iOS 18, so more friends can sit with you.
