Live Activities can now show cover art. - Send an image with a progress or steps activity and it appears in place of the icon on the Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island and on your Apple Watch. Posters keep their 2:3 shape, and square and circular artwork work too. - The artwork now shows inside the app as well, on the Activities list and at the top of an activity's detail screen. - A tiny preview of the image travels with the update itself, so the card is never empty. You see a blurred version of the real artwork straight away, and it sharpens once the full image has been fetched. Also new, outside the app: - The PushWard integration for Home Assistant is now in the official HACS repository. You can install it by searching for PushWard in HACS, with no custom repository to add first.

Five new Home Screen widgets: - Trend - a current value with a sparkline of its recent history. - Countdown - counts down to a target time on its own, no updates needed. - Battery - charge rings for up to eight devices at once. - Schedule - a value per time period, with the current one highlighted. - Flow - rates moving between inputs, storage and an output. Also in this update: - The gauge widget has been redesigned as an open arc, with the range labelled underneath and a marker sitting at the current value. - A progress widget given a start and end time now advances its own bar, so it keeps moving between updates. - Widgets can now be told how long their data stays fresh. Past that point the widget dims and stamps the time it last heard anything, instead of showing stale numbers as if they were current. - Widget subtitles can show a live ticking timer. - A widget using a template this version doesn't recognise now says so on its own tile, instead of the whole widget list going blank.

Notifications from 130+ self-hosted services now show that service's own logo instead of a generic bell - Immich, Nextcloud, Plex, Vaultwarden, Portainer, Prometheus, Home Assistant and many more. Near-black logos get a lighter version so they stay readable in dark mode. Also in this update: - Changing the language in Settings now updates every label straight away, instead of leaving some in the old language until the next launch. - On Mac, moving through the activity list is much faster; selecting a row no longer rebuilds the whole window. - The ETA timer on the generic Live Activity now fits in the Dynamic Island instead of being cut off. - On Mac, a countdown that runs out now shows its completion message instead of stopping at zero. - On Mac, View Full Log no longer hangs the app. - On Mac, opening an activity no longer briefly flashes the previous one's log.

New • Read once, cleared everywhere — mark a notification read, or mark all read, on one of your Apple devices and the banner clears on the others too. Read state syncs privately through your own iCloud and stays between your devices. Improved • On Mac, ongoing activities in the menu bar now show as full Lock Screen-style cards instead of plain rows. • On Mac, right-click an activity or a shared item to delete it, revoke someone's access, or leave a share — the same actions a swipe gives you on iPhone and iPad. • Multi-day Live Activity timelines label the chart axis in days, so a week-long span reads "6d 23h" instead of "167h". • Close the Mac window and PushWard tucks into the menu bar; open a window and the Dock icon comes back. Fixed • Tapping a notification that has no source now opens the right item instead of just the app. • On Mac, tapping an activity you had already deleted no longer freezes the app. • On Mac, cleaned up a stray divider line at the top of the Settings screens.

New • Design Live Activities right in the app — pick a template, set the colors, progress, a countdown, steps, a gauge, or an alert, then push it straight to your devices. • Free view-only sharing — people you share an activity with can now join for free as viewers. Editor access still needs a subscription. • Siri & Shortcuts — say "Send a notification with PushWard" to send yourself a note, or "Show my unread PushWard notifications" to open your inbox. • Control Center controls — fire one of your widget webhooks with a single press, or jump straight to your notification inbox. • Spotlight search — your notifications now appear in system search, so you can find and open any past notification from the Home Screen. • Auto-dismiss for Live Activities — choose how long a finished activity stays on the Lock Screen, or have it disappear the moment it ends. Improved • Search your whole history — search now covers your entire notification and email history, not just what is loaded on screen. • Faster, smoother history — large notification lists scroll without stutter and load with placeholders instead of blank screens. • Steps Live Activities show the estimated time up front and animate to the next step as progress advances. • What's New notes can now include screenshots and short videos. Fixed • Fixed a case where a steps Live Activity could show up blank. • The monthly price now reflects the plan's billing period, and the free-trial check no longer hangs. • Removed an extra-large Home Screen widget size that only stretched the large layout. • Live Activity progress now exposes a proper VoiceOver label.

Build and deploy Live Activities now size each step by how long it takes, so slow stages stand out at a glance while parallel jobs still fan out into their own rows.

- Steps Live Activities can now show weighted, colored segments, with the current segment filling up as progress advances. - Timeline Live Activities can now mark one series as the primary: it drives the headline value and the new high and low readouts. - Generic Live Activities can now animate progress between updates and show a live countdown to the finish when an ETA is set. - Ended activities now clear their live countdown instead of ticking past the finish.

- The 14-day free trial is now available in every country. - The Family plan now shows its 14-day free trial too. - Fixed the subscription screen showing raw formatting text in the free trial and time remaining labels. - New integration keys now appear in a dedicated reveal sheet with clearer scope descriptions. - An empty slug list on an integration key now means no restriction instead of matching nothing. - You can now keep up to 50 activities; ended activities are cleaned up after 30 days.

- Alert Live Activities can now show a custom label instead of Info, Warning, or Critical, so a window or lock alert can read Open or Unlocked. - Stat list widgets add a Row Density control and fit more rows cleanly at each widget size. - Fixed a notification sync loop that could keep running when the list was empty. - Fixed a harmless error logged when marking notifications read in the background.
