• If you shared only some of your contacts with Tidings, Invite friends now has “Choose more contacts…” so you can add more people to invite.

• Invites now take your friends straight to Tidings in their phone's app store, ready to download.

• Fixes a bug where editing an occasion could show — and save — today’s date instead of the one you entered. • If any dates were set recently, Tidings asks you once to check them.

• A faster start: Tidings finds the birthdays already in your contacts and shows you the exact message it will send. • Skip one: skip this year's message for anyone, right from the reminder or Upcoming. Undo anytime. • The evening before Auto-Send texts someone, you get a heads-up to edit the message or skip it.

• Try Tidings Pro free for 3 months. Pick annual or monthly on one simple screen, and you're in. • New to Tidings? Today now helps you add the people you love first.

• See exactly what each person will receive before you save. • Tap First name or Your name to insert the real name. • The Messages list marks which message is sent to everyone. • Surprise check-ins stay in the tone you chose. • Holiday messages always match the holiday, and the message tag now links to the Tidings download page.

You can now tap to insert a name or years while writing a message, the per-person Customize button is easier to reach, and backups are more reliable.

Tidings is easier to use: a new Today tab is home for everything to send today, Upcoming is just for planning ahead, and you can now customize the message one person gets or the message everyone gets. Set it once and Tidings takes it from there.

Fixed a bug where sending a holiday greeting (like Thanksgiving or Christmas) could show the wrong holiday's message.

Fixed an issue where claiming your 90 days of early access could leave the welcome screen stuck instead of finishing automatically. Fixed an issue where re-importing contacts could get stuck if you'd previously granted access to only some of your contacts. Performance and stability improvements throughout.

Under-the-hood stability and reliability improvements.

Performance polish: the People and Upcoming screens load faster, and deleting someone is smoother, especially with a larger list.

A small polish: Settings and your People/Upcoming screens now show a clearer status while iCloud is still bringing your data back after a reinstall.

A quieter way to see your 90-day early-access offer, right on your Upcoming screen.

Upcoming now groups your holidays into a single row instead of one per person — tap to see everyone. iCloud backup status is more accurate too, so it reflects a completed backup right away instead of sitting on "Checking iCloud."

Occasions you import now bring their dates along automatically, and you can edit any occasion right from the list. A gentle one-time reminder if you have not started your free trial yet. Plus: invite a friend and you both get rewarded when they join Tidings Pro — from Tidings tidings.family

Early access: claim 90 days of Tidings Pro, free — now right inside the app. You're trying Tidings early, so the full Pro experience is on us for 90 days. Tap "Get 90 days free" on the Pro screen (or in Settings) and redeem in one step — no code to type. Tidings Pro delivers your greetings automatically, signed with your name, so you never miss the people you love.

Now your people, dates, and saved messages back up to your own iCloud automatically — so if you delete Tidings or get a new phone, everything comes right back. Just stay signed in to iCloud; there's nothing to set up.

New: Holiday Tidings -- Auto-Send subscribers can opt in to send Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Year's greetings automatically to their People list, with a review screen before each batch.

Two fixes for a smoother welcome: • Restore Purchases now works right from the welcome screens — if you already subscribe to Tidings Pro, we recognize it instantly and take you straight in. • Clearer Auto-Send setup — the confirmation button now stays in view while you read the details, so it's obvious how to continue.

Thanks for the feedback! This update: • Turns on Auto-Send the moment you subscribe or redeem a code • Lets you set a relationship, so greetings can open with “To my …,” • Imports any contact and prefers their mobile number • Makes editing, saving, and the Auto-Send status clearer • Adds inviting friends by text or a shareable link • Improves Restore Purchases so your subscription comes back reliably

• Fixed an issue where closing the message window could leave a “sent” entry even though nothing was actually sent. • You can now redeem an offer code right inside the app.
