• Your moods in the check-in: you choose which feelings appear after the gong – from all 38 in Apple Health, with the same names as there. • Streak per gong: each gong counts at its own level – Strict, Mild or Off. When you switch, you decide whether it also applies to past days. Thank you for your feedback – it helps us make NowGong better step by step.

• An even calmer home screen: the card for your next session no longer shows a time – when the gong comes stays a surprise. • While a Focus is on, a subtle line tells you the session will arrive as a notification. Thank you for your feedback – it helps us make NowGong better step by step.

• New: templates for your intention – 24 lines in six groups, from gratitude to your future self. Tap one to use it; you can change it anytime. A new gong now opens its settings right away. • A calmer home screen: the note about the next time window only appears when another session is still coming today. Thank you for your feedback – it helps us make NowGong better step by step.

• The widget now stays up to date even on days you don't open the app: expired sessions show as missed, and at midnight the daily ring starts fresh with the new day's plan. Thank you for your feedback – it helps us make NowGong better step by step.

• Your weekly schedule in one place: Set multiple time windows for each gong and choose the days that suit you. • Quick to set up: Duplicate time windows and adjust them – including all-day and overnight windows. • Reliable spacing: Random reminders are scheduled within your time windows and respect the minimum gap, even across midnight. Your existing schedule settings are carried over automatically.

• Your intention: Add a personal note to each gong and see it below the timer – no Pro required. • Simpler alarms: One alarm per session replaces repeated alarm attempts, with clearer settings. • A calmer check-in: The privacy explanation appears there only on your first visit and stays available in Settings. You choose which attachments to include with feedback.

Share your progress: Milestones and the weekly card are now available without Pro. Share your achievements and your week as an image with an app link. A clearer overview: Ready sessions form a compact stack of cards. Tap, swipe or use the arrows to choose a session, then use the single Start button. Start and Pause stay within reach. Quiet while you meditate: Other NowGong alarms that become due wait silently during your session. Their remaining time to start is preserved. Afterwards, you decide when to continue.

New in Alarm settings: “Focus & Driving” – three steps to keep the gong quiet or silent while driving, in meetings or at night. Nothing expires; afterwards NowGong reschedules the rest of the day. Plus a hint in onboarding. The stack: if two gongs ring shortly after each other, NowGong now shows every startable session in a list – with its gong, remaining time and its own start button. After one session you can go straight to the next. Plus a data-safety package: automatic backup before every database update, an honest notice instead of an empty app if an update goes wrong, and an optional diagnostic log in feedback so we can help you faster.

Follow-up stability fix after an iPhone restart: in rare cases settings could still reset to defaults when the alarm woke the app before the first unlock. NowGong now reads nothing while data is locked, checks the settings file directly, and never writes defaults over existing data. Your sessions were never affected.

Important stability fix: if the alarm woke the app after an iPhone restart before you had unlocked it for the first time, it couldn’t read your settings and looked freshly installed. NowGong now waits briefly until your data is available – nothing gets overwritten anymore. Your sessions were never affected.

Our biggest update yet: NowGong now speaks ten languages. New: milestones – the app celebrates your waypoints (100 gongs, 30 days, an hour of stillness …) with shareable cards; find the overview behind your streak. Also: due sessions can be postponed once by ten minutes, and onboarding now asks for your time window.

By popular request: the closing gong is now selectable per gong – same sound choice as the alarm, with preview. The default gong is a bit more present. Also: clearer alarm settings, a note about lead time for fixed times, and the keyboard in the time picker can now be dismissed easily.

Clearer Pro overview and small improvements.

New: Experience your first gong right after setup as a short trial run. Stats now show your patterns (most pleasant time of day, strongest weekday). Siri starts sessions (“Start a session in NowGong”), the countdown appears on Apple Watch, the app explains quiet hours and gong-free days, and the streak joker tells you what it does before you use it.

After a pause, the daily ring only promises what can actually still happen today. Plus finer planning when many alarms are set, and language polish.
