Puzzle Pals, right from the start. • A new welcome: pick your piece, your colour and an emoji, and find your Puzzle Pals with Continue with Apple. Or not now: everything else works without it. • Invite the people you puzzle with, and you're pals the moment they open your link. No requests to accept. • Sitting together? Show a code, and everyone who scans it is your pal. • Link up with friends from any puzzle timer: one code for the whole table, and everyone who joins is on the puzzle with you, so it lands on their shelf too. • Speed puzzles: set a time limit when you start the clock, watch it count down, and get a nudge when time's up. • Got the app another way? Type the invite code from under the QR in the welcome. • Fixes and polish throughout.

Last Piece is more fun with friends. • Puzzle Pals has its own tab: see what your pals are building, visit their shelves, and cheer them on. • Invite anyone into a puzzle with one link. When they join, it's on their shelf too. • Hear when pals start or finish a puzzle or earn a badge (never overnight). • The timer is a Live Activity, with Pause and Finished on your Lock Screen and Apple Watch. • Taking a break? Last Piece asks, and nudges you back to the table later. • Snap the box lid and the puzzle's name fills itself in. • Share a framed puzzle and its label fits everyone who built it, the whole time and the year, with your pal link in the message. • A warmer welcome for new puzzlers: just you, the two of you or a whole crew, with an easy way to bring them along. • Home Screen widgets, with Lifetime. • Your puzzles sync through iCloud by themselves. No more backups to manage. • Crew and places now live in Settings. • Fixes for Puzzle Pals sign-up, duplicated settings, and the puzzle page.
