Each step of a session now tells you what to do with it. A short line under every step explains how to approach it. Each day's examination has its own guide, and the Christ questions now say which person or picture they are about. Inner State is more than a number now. Choose up to three words for what you feel, and the app offers a line on what that feeling might be asking for. Free Prayer then starts from what you named. The carry-forward step can suggest a practice from the desert tradition when you would like an idea. Thai readers now get the Christ questions, and the Formation page reads in Thai. On Apple Watch, the day's Scripture audio and music download ahead of time, so they play on a run without your phone. Beginning the next session is more dependable too.

• Begin a formation session straight from the welcome screen, with the Bible one tap away. • Trying Eremos as a guest? Your reflections are now kept on this device until you sign in, so they come with you into your new account.

Smoother listening on the go. One press on your AirPods, Apple Watch or lock screen now pauses both the Bible reading and the music, and the next press brings them back. The music now plays at the same loudness as the reading, so you no longer need to turn the volume up and down, and it stays steady between chapters. On Apple Watch, the reading picks up again on its own after a notification or Siri. The Watch controls are bigger and easier to tap, and syncing happens automatically. Open What’s new from Home or Settings for short demonstrations of Watch sessions, Bible audio, and study notes. Update reminders now check again when you return to the app.

Longer answers on Apple Watch. Tap Record a longer answer, speak for as long as you need, and your iPhone turns it into text and adds it to your journal. The transcription happens on your iPhone, so the recording never leaves your devices. Short dictation on the Watch now adds to your answer instead of replacing it.

Eremos is now on Apple Watch. Pray through your daily session from your wrist: breathe, listen to the reading (it keeps playing during a workout), answer the questions with your voice, and finish. Open Eremos on your iPhone once and your Watch picks up your session. Your journal is also safer. If you write on two devices, both are kept and nothing is overwritten.

Sign-in reliability improvements. Sessions refresh when you return to Eremos after changes on another device. Single-chapter Bible readings now open correctly.

Fixes an issue that could prevent Eremos from opening on iOS 27.

Verse numbers and study links are easier to see in light and dark mode. This update also improves update reminders and app reliability.

Cross-references now work after restarting the app offline. Bible Study presentations keep each verse together when moving to a new page, with your highlights and underlines staying in place. Meditation now shows one marked passage at a time, with highlights, circles, and underlines together. Full passage context is available when you need it. Also fixes extra space below the journal when typing on Mac.

Bible Study has a simpler layout, clearer verse selection, discussion notes, and audience controls. Personal verse notes now offer a dotted handwriting page saved on this device. Thai sign-in, verification emails, and password recovery are clearer. Music credits are always available beside the reading music control. You can also recover selected guest studies while keeping the originals.

Fixes from a full security and data-safety review. Closed several ways one account could reach another account's group sessions, teachings, or the author of an anonymous post. Your reflections are better protected too: a failed save no longer loses what you typed, importing a guest session no longer overwrites an existing journal entry, and the Meditatio step is no longer missing from exports. Also: the reader no longer briefly shows the previous chapter's words, Thai search works for guests, and ambient audio stops when you leave the reader. Questions or ideas? Email eremos.app@gmail.com

Bible text corrections. The BSB now shows every psalm title, every Selah, and the refrain in Psalm 136, and it matches the publisher's current text word for word. Thai Psalm 13 verse numbers are fixed. Questions or ideas? Email eremos.app@gmail.com

Reading and listening are calmer in this update. Ambient music can continue as you move through the app, with clearer controls and credit for the musician. Bible navigation is simpler, new sessions open at the breathing pause as intended, reading-plan dates stay aligned, Present mode gives clearer connection guidance, and New Testament study notes now include condensed Gill commentary.

Music now flows through the whole app — keep the ambient bed playing while you read, and it gently ducks under the audio Bible. The audio Bible follows along as you change chapters. Offline Bible loading is faster and works fully without a connection, sign-in is smoother (including inside LINE and Facebook), and this update includes important security hardening and many small fixes.

A gentler way back: peek at another passage and a small Return button brings you to the verse you left. Continue Reading now lands on your exact line, and your highlights are one tap from the Bible page, organized by book. Questions or ideas? Email eremos.app@gmail.com

The Stillness music now keeps playing when your screen locks — on a walk or run, the music and the Scripture reading continue together. Pausing either one is smooth and clean now. Questions or ideas? Email eremos.app@gmail.com

A clearer front door: one way to get the app on each platform, a calmer start page, and — for Thai readers — the app now opens the Eremos translation by default. Questions or ideas? Email eremos.app@gmail.com
