Squad battles just got a real feed. See everyone's proof in one place — photos and reflections, grouped by day — instead of a single receipt. Also in this update: - Fixed a bug where certain monster battles could get stuck and make it look like your progress and trophies had disappeared. (They hadn't — this was a display bug, not data loss.) - Fixed daily reminders sometimes firing even after you'd already completed today's challenge. - Squad invites are easier to accept, right from where the notification takes you. - Assorted challenge and stability fixes.

Your daily monster strike notification is now more reliable — you'll get it every day, even if you haven't opened the app in a while. Fixed daily strike reminders occasionally going silent "10 minutes left" and comeback reminders are back and working Squad battle reminders now arrive earlier in the evening (6pm) instead of 8pm/10pm Fixed pull-to-refresh not working on the squad battle screen Fixed challenge titles getting cut off in the friend feed

Your daily strike reminders are now more reliable — notifications will keep reaching you even if you haven't opened the app in a few days. We also added a new strike alert sound so you'll know the moment your challenge window opens, and fixed an issue where reminders could show an outdated challenge. Thanks for fighting the good fight!

- React to comments with fire emoji in your squad's encouragement threads, not just the main feed - Profile photos: move and scale before saving, so your crop doesn't cut off your face - Squad battle cards now lead with your check-in status and squad progress, with pending invites tucked into a collapsible section — easier to scan on bigger squads - Assorted bug fixes and polish

Squad connection fixes Fixed several issues that prevented friend invites from connecting properly: -Incoming invites now appear in your Squad inbox even before you have any accepted friends -Sending an invite to someone who already invited you now instantly connects you both -Friend names and handles now display correctly on invite cards -The Cancel button on outgoing invites now works correctly -Invite rows no longer wrap or overflow on smaller screens Also fixed an issue where signing in with email during onboarding could fail to recognize an existing account.
