Fixed: removing a block while composing your own sit could close the app. It no longer does. When the guide asks you to tap, a tap anywhere on the screen now counts — not just on the circle. When you renew your vow, your sits now return the new words, not the first ones you wrote. More of Shoshin speaks German: the Stillness Trial's introduction, and what VoiceOver says about each place on the tree (completed, available, locked). German: one word for a sit — Session — throughout the app. Also: with VoiceOver, an empty sit you are composing now says so instead of reading an empty timeline, and smaller fixes.

Your first sit keeps its rhythm now. Once the guide has matched your breath, every breath in and every breath out gets its cue, even when your screen dims with the phone resting on your chest. The Honest Mirror is more honest. If the phone couldn't feel your breath clearly, it now says so, rather than naming a number. It only says your breath slowed when it really did, and it speaks of your breath or your heart only when your iPhone or Watch actually read it. A phone call, Siri or an alarm now pauses your sit. When it's over, the sit picks up where it stopped and the guide repeats the line you missed. If you paused yourself, it stays paused until you continue. Grounding: the guide's words now arrive with the circle — "breathe out" begins as the circle begins to shrink. Also: your first sit names the pace it actually matched, the path overview after your first sit no longer hides behind the tree on smaller iPhones, and smaller fixes.

The Empty Room is new. Choose 27, 54 or 108 breaths. Lie back and rest your iPhone flat on your chest: it quietly counts your own breaths and rings one bell at the end. The first time, the guide walks you in and then leaves — after that, the room is empty. To come back, rest a finger on the screen for a moment. Afterwards the Mirror shows how many breaths it was, and how settled your breath has been in silence across your last visits. The tree now shows your path properly: finish a branch and its line lights up all the way to the summit. Branch names sit on their lines, and the button at the bottom always names the next meditation on your path — or the Stillness Trial when it's due. The guide's voice now ends each line with a soft release instead of a clipped stop. In your first sit, the guide waits for your tap before it answers. Also: missing translations added, a way back out of the vow screen, and smaller fixes.

A session's Lock-Screen card now reliably ends with the session — even when your iPhone is locked. Its End button now also works while the phone is locked. New: "Compose a sit." Build your own meditation from individual blocks — Arrive, Body scan, breath shapes (including box breathing), counted breaths, Noting, Sound, Open awareness, Loving-kindness, a kind word to yourself, Three things, Just sitting, Silence, and Reflection. Set each block's length and choose the ambient sound underneath. You can use the same block more than once, and reorder blocks at any time. Three finished presets are free for everyone; building and saving your own sits is part of the whole path. "Your progress" now shows your practice: minutes sat, how many sits, your longest, how far your breath and heart settled — and how far the guide has stepped back on the branches you've begun. Sits you built yourself count too. Also: every screen now uses your iPhone's full height, Graduation Receipts appear once your silence has grown, and several composer bugs are fixed.
