On a story whose photos are for members, each blurred photo now says so right on the image, with a Become a member button (and Sign in if you already have an account). Links in a story to other Miami Beach Journal stories now open in the app instead of your browser. Save stories to read later. Tap the bookmark on any story or card, then find them under Account > Saved stories. Your saved list is the same on the website when you are signed in. Not signed in yet? Tap the bookmark anyway: create your free account or sign in and we save that story for you. On iPhone, the sponsor message on the home screen is now a slim line, so the stories start higher. The story page on iPad now shows the Miami Beach Journal name and logo at the top, and the home list lines up with the sponsor message.

Dark mode: the app now follows your phone's appearance, with a darker look for reading at night. Sign in or create your account with one tap using Apple or Google. Email and password and the emailed sign-in code still work. You may also see clearly labeled "Presented by" messages from local sponsors on the home screen and under story bylines.

Links to Miami Beach Journal stories now open right in the app — from the newsletter, a text, a social post or our website — instead of in your browser. Also fixes sign-in and email-verification links that opened the app on its home screen instead of finishing the step.

Under-the-hood improvements to reliability and crash reporting. Fixes sharing a story to Facebook or X when those apps are installed.

Now on iPad: - A layout built for the bigger screen — top navigation, two-column stories, and a sidebar with the most-read stories, featured reporting, and newsletter signup - Works in portrait and landscape, and side by side with other apps Also: - Deleting your account now cancels a website membership immediately - Members Only stories no longer show a stray "0 images are members-only" notice

Membership is now available in the app: - Become a member with an annual or monthly App Store subscription — no need to leave the app - Members Only stories unlock the moment you join, in the app and on the website with the same account - Manage or restore your membership from the Account tab - Gift a story: tap Gift on a Members Only story — or one with members-only images — to share a link anyone can read, and manage your gift links from the Account tab - The email-verification link now opens the app

Signing in is now faster and easier: - Sign in with a one-time code emailed to you, no password required - Tapping the sign-in link in your email now opens the Miami Beach Journal app directly - After signing in from a locked story, you're taken right back to it

Updated our app icon and in-app branding to match miamibeachjournal.org. Fixed an issue where some free articles showed a 'Members Only' label.
