Alarms can vibrate before they ring, and channels back up to iCloud. • Vibrate first: a channel can vibrate for 30 seconds up to 15 minutes before its alarm rings out loud • Pause Channel, chosen as an alarm's second button in the editor, keeps a channel that won't stop ringing quiet for an hour • iCloud Backup keeps your channels and the sounds you imported for them in iCloud as you change them, so they come back after reinstalling Hotline or on a new iPhone, and Shortcuts that ring them keep working • Restore from iCloud lists each device's backup • Export Backup asks whether to include History, and Settings shows what channels, sounds and History take up • Hotline's tones ring louder, and tapping a sound rings it for a few seconds as your alarm will, at your alarm volume and in Silent mode too • Bark is now a real dog; the old Bark is called Buzz • Boost a quiet imported sound, and undo it any time • The sound picker explains which iPhone settings set your alarm's volume and vibration • History shows icons for more apps • Fixes for the alarm widget and the Calendar setup test

Calendar alerts get their event's details, alarms can ring for longer, and an updated automation reaches more apps. • On iOS 27, Calendar alerts: start a channel from the Calendar alerts template, and with access to your calendar Hotline fills in alerts that arrive blank, lets a channel pick a calendar, and previews the week's upcoming alerts in the editor • On iOS 27, Hotline asks you once to update your automation, so notifications from more apps reach it. The setup test checks the new one with Send Test Notification • Choose how long an alarm keeps ringing • A guide to rule conditions, a tester for regular expressions, and a warning on channels with an invalid pattern • Tap a row to check an app, and swipe a selected one to remove it • A Silent tone, for alarms that only vibrate, and Test Vibration to check that yours do • New channels stay off until you close their editor • Ring Hotline Channel notifies you when it can't ring, instead of stopping your shortcut • What's New after each update, and every version's notes in Settings • Copy Diagnostics in Settings • Backups made by a newer version of Hotline restore

Turn Hotline off in one tap, and back on when you want it. • Turn every channel off at once from Settings, the Channels tab, Control Center or the Lock Screen. History still shows what would have rung • Shortcuts actions to turn Hotline, or one channel, on or off • Test Alarm confirms that it started, and when a countdown will ring • Haptics for the setup test, purchases and the preview panel • The editor's Recent Notifications panel closes as you scroll • Hotline opens faster, and channel rows keep their status on one line • On iOS 26, setup is shorter and explains what needs iOS 27 • Clearer empty screens in History and Stats

A faster History, and more help when something doesn't ring. • History is much faster and lighter, however long it gets. Your existing History moves over by itself the first time you open 1.1 • When an alarm fails, the notice opens that entry in History, and the entry offers the fix: allow alarms, stop the alarm that's ringing, or unlock Hotline Pro • Test with This Notification: replay any entry in History to see the alarm it rings now, or why it doesn't match • The channel list warns when a channel's app has never reached Hotline, so you can check your automation before you miss something • A new "repeated" rule counts only notifications from after you set it, so it no longer rings on the very next message • Rename your imported sounds • Restoring a backup can keep the History you already have • Erase All Data in Settings, for a fresh start
