v4.5.3 • Every assessment result now shows its scoring-method version ("QRS method v2", with the axis weights) and a data-basis label — computed from your inputs, model estimate, what-if scenario or reference text — so you can see where each number comes from. • The penetration simulator is marked "MODEL — NOT A FORECAST" with a "Data basis: what-if scenario" label, and lists the assumptions behind every attack vector with their source. • The compliance map shows a fine only when its legal source is named (for example NIS2 Art. 34), every region names the public document it is based on, and the map is labelled reference text. • Physical-qubit figures show their published range and the overhead assumption behind them. • Plan cards now list only features you can use in the app on that plan, and Enterprise states that it unlocks the same in-app features as Professional. The threat map no longer shows an unsourced "QV 2026" figure. • Settings: replay the welcome tutorial at any time, and read the full disclaimer on its own screen. • Results: share a plain-text summary of any assessment. • Reports: each report shows a stable report ID, its real page count and the SHA-256 fingerprint of the downloaded PDF. • You stay signed in when you are offline or the server is briefly unavailable, and expired sessions renew automatically. • Clear messages when a purchase or restore does not complete. • Honest labels: the welcome screens use a clearly marked example instead of a simulated scan of your device; the threat map and regional panel are marked as model estimates, and the former "live" node count and fixed regional scores are gone; FIPS 206 is now shown correctly as FN-DSA, and HQC as a NIST selection without a FIPS number. • Dates in history, results and Sentinel now show correctly in your local time, and Sentinel sources are no longer all marked out of date. • If the server can't be reached, the app says so at once instead of waiting, and history offers Try Again instead of an empty list. • Pausing and resuming Sentinel always shows the state the server confirmed, and Sentinel's last-assessment row updates right after you run an assessment. • The compliance map shows region names, flags and translated statuses. • Skip is available on every welcome page, signing out returns you to the sign-in screen, the Free plan badge is correct, and Rate Q-Shield opens the right App Store page. • Wording fixes in all seven languages, including "Assessment Report" in place of certification or audit wording. • Professional subscription purchases now go through correctly, and prices always come from the App Store. The one-time Starter purchase is no longer offered.

v4.5.1 — Sentinel Echo: answer the questionnaire you were sent • Sentinel Echo — you were sent a post-quantum readiness questionnaire. Paste it in and Echo sorts every question by what it is really asking about, then drafts the answers your own Q-Shield assessment can support. Each draft shows which part of your assessment it came from, so you can check it before you send it. • It leaves blanks on purpose. A question with nothing behind it comes back empty with the reason, instead of a confident-sounding paragraph. Pricing, contracts, SLAs and supplier questions are marked "only you can answer this." • Not AI. No model reads your questionnaire and no answer is invented — the same questionnaire always produces the same result. • Key material never leaves your device. If a private key, certificate or password is pasted in with the questionnaire, the app stops it before anything is uploaded and tells you what it found. • Export the finished answers as a document to send back. Open it from any assessment. Same pricing, no new plans.

v4.4.1 — Clearer assessment wording, redesigned Siri shortcuts & purchase reliability • Clearer wording throughout: your results and the PDF are now labeled an "assessment report" instead of a "certificate," so it's plain that Q-Shield gives you a reference assessment of your quantum-readiness — not a formal certification. • Siri shortcuts redesigned to match what the app actually does: the new "Check Security Health" shortcut runs a real self-test of the app's security configuration and reports the results. Shortcuts describing operations the app does not perform were removed. • Purchases and Restore Purchases are more resilient: if activation is interrupted (offline or signed out), the app finishes it automatically the next time you launch. • Fixed a sign-in issue on Mac where the dashboard could show "Server error" right after you logged in. Same features, same pricing. Sentinel keeps watching the standards, not your secrets.

v4.4.0 — Redesigned Siri shortcuts & purchase reliability • Siri shortcuts redesigned to match what the app actually does: the new "Check Security Health" shortcut runs a real self-test of the app's security configuration and reports the results. Shortcuts describing operations the app does not perform were removed. • Purchases and Restore Purchases are more resilient: if activation is interrupted (offline or signed out), the app finishes it automatically the next time you launch. • Fixed a sign-in issue on Mac where the dashboard could show "Server error" right after you logged in. Same features, same pricing. Sentinel keeps watching the standards, not your secrets.

v4.3.3 — Reliability fixes • Fixed a sign-in issue on Mac where the dashboard could show "Server error" right after you logged in. • General reliability improvements. Same features, same pricing. Sentinel keeps watching the standards, not your secrets.

v4.3.2 — Clearer, more honest reporting Every estimate now shows its assumptions and sources, so you always know what's behind a number. What's new • Plain-language risk explanations — understand your quantum exposure without the jargon. • Refined CISO briefing — a tighter executive narrative ready for the boardroom. • Cleaner simulation-based assessment report — clearer layout, with a SHA-256 document-integrity hash. • Breach Timeline and HNDL exposure now read as model estimates, framed honestly. • Improved localization across all 7 languages. Honesty-first Q-Shield is a simulation that maps your posture to NIST post-quantum standards — a simulation, not a certification. It is not AI and not an infrastructure audit. Still always-on: Sentinel keeps watching the standards, not your secrets. Same pricing.

v4.3.1 — Your real values, no more waiting The certificate screen no longer hangs on a fixed timer. It now follows your actual analysis to completion and shows your real results. What's new • Adaptive certificate screen — your real QRS score, grade, NIST readiness %, HNDL exposure, and Q-Day, surfaced as the analysis finishes. • Command Center threat map now renders a real backend feed instead of a client-side counter. • Honesty fixes — removed a misleading "report emailed" message and wired up an Upgrade button that did nothing. • Subscription prices now come straight from the App Store. • Your Q-Day on the timeline, a shorter splash you can tap to skip, and new translations across all 7 languages. Honesty-first QRS is an assessment, not a proof. Results model classical hardware against public NIST standards. Assessment, not Certification. Still always-on: Sentinel Vigilance keeps watching the standards, not your secrets. Same pricing.

v4.3.0 — Penetration Simulator, now with live data Your Professional attack simulation no longer runs on sample data. It now models eight real attack vectors against your own assessment — and shows what each one means for you. What's new • Quantum Penetration Simulator (Professional) — Shor, Grover, HNDL, TLS-downgrade, side-channel, supply-chain, insider, and misconfiguration, each scored against your inputs. • Your breach window, weakest-link algorithm, and prioritized fixes — derived from your assessment, not a demo. • Smoother sign-up and corrected billing labels; legal links now resolve correctly in all 7 languages. Honesty-first We renamed "mathematical proof" to "quantum risk analysis" — because QRS is an assessment, not a proof. Results model classical hardware against public NIST standards. Assessment, not Certification. Still always-on: Sentinel Vigilance keeps watching the standards, not your secrets. Same pricing.
