Changelog

What I've shipped recently. Built in the open, driven by your feedback. Got something to say? Email [email protected].

August 2026
CheckMate Dev 15 Aug 2026 New

Companion check-ins are now open to everyone. Turn them on once, choose Misa or Putica, then choose whether your cat notices unfinished quests, progress and milestones, or the occasional quiet moment. If notifications are blocked, setup keeps a clear path to try again, and dismissed hints stay dismissed.

CheckMate Dev 15 Aug 2026 New

Website refresh — a clearer look at how quests, rest-positive streaks, and co-op raids work, plus a practical guide to gamified habits and a free habit streak & consistency calculator. The screenshot gallery now waits until you reach it too, making the first visit lighter.

CheckMate Dev 11 Aug 2026 New

CheckMate 1.0.19 — the new Today home-screen widget shows what is still open and jumps straight into a quest. Streaks now only count up, so a day off leaves yours waiting instead of wiping it away, and the Comeback XP bonus works after a break.

CheckMate Dev 11 Aug 2026 Privacy

Account switching now has a durable privacy boundary. Journal photos, PIN state, widgets, reminders, and account-owned local data are cleared and verified before another account can use the device, while late work from the previous account is fenced out.

CheckMate Dev 11 Aug 2026 Fixed

Raid, quest, and progression reliability — check-ins, undo, XP, levels, and Embers now settle together with the server. Ended raids advance on schedule, expired results dismiss reliably, Enshrine and Archive refresh correctly, and shared profile data exposes only what it needs.

CheckMate Dev 6 Aug 2026 New

Lifetime purchase recovery — redeem an App Store code inside CheckMate, or return after redeeming elsewhere and the app automatically checks whether the $1.99 lifetime unlock belongs to your account.

CheckMate Dev 6 Aug 2026 Fixed

Signing out now affects only the device in your hand, and a temporary sync failure no longer mistakes a healthy account for a deleted one. Tablet journal dates open correctly, off-screen scenes stop animating to save battery, the day-and-night switch introduces itself once, and Settings can open the store’s rating card.

CheckMate Dev 5 Aug 2026 Fixed

Notification delivery was rebuilt so a shared device receives messages only for its current account, while friend requests, cheers, and raid invites no longer get stranded. Push-token access was tightened at the same time.

July 2026
CheckMate Dev 24 Jul 2026 New

84 new pixel icons joined the library, bringing it to 172. Quest, raid, and journal pickers now offer 162 searchable choices, understand everyday ideas like “money” or “gym,” and keep every icon larger and more consistent.

CheckMate Dev 24 Jul 2026 New

Tap any Journal calendar day to add, edit, or delete its entry. Misa and Putica now react to the mood you save with wording that fits backdated days, light-theme mood colours are clearer, and every free-access screen shares the same honest countdown. Subscribing early also explains what happens before the store opens.

CheckMate Dev 24 Jul 2026 Polish

Journal calendars and Year View now use complete, stable month layouts with faster navigation and gentler mood labels. Bottom sheets across CheckMate also share clearer titles and consistent back and close controls.

CheckMate Dev 23 Jul 2026 New

Journal Trends, redesigned. A warm read on how you've been — a mood-and-vitals chart, gentle patterns pulled from your entries, field notes, and a swipeable Memories deck of your photos. Pick any date range you like.

CheckMate Dev 23 Jul 2026 Polish

Co-op Raids tune-up — clearer official raid titles, plus fairer grove watering and tier scaling, so showing up with your team feels right.

CheckMate Dev 23 Jul 2026 Polish

Reliability polish — the Journal now shows a loading placeholder while it opens, switching to cloud sync loads your entries right away, and quest reminders show exactly the time you set.

June 2026
CheckMate Dev 26 Jun 2026 Polish

Journal calendar — swiping between months now drops you straight onto that month's most recent day, and the entries snap into view. No more hunting for the right day.

CheckMate Dev 26 Jun 2026 New

CheckMate now lets you know when a new version is ready and can apply quick updates on the spot — so you're always on the latest with less waiting.

CheckMate Dev 26 Jun 2026 New

Journal backup & restore — save your whole journal, photos and all, to a single file you can keep safe, then bring it back anytime. Plus fixes to journal photo uploads and a faster, smoother app under the hood.

CheckMate Dev 25 Jun 2026 New

Side Quests — one small, optional feel-good task each day, like a short walk or a glass of water. Tap to complete it for a little XP. No streaks, no pressure: skip the days you need to.

CheckMate Dev 18 Jun 2026 New

Onboarding, reimagined. A friendlier cat-led intro with Misa & Putica, a pick-your-first-quest step, and a small celebration when you finish setting up.

CheckMate Dev 17 Jun 2026 Polish

Fresh pixel-art icons across the app and redesigned journal entry cards. Misa & Putica now cheer you on after every journal save.

CheckMate Dev 16 Jun 2026 New

Misa, Putica, and your hero avatars are now animated — little idle and talking loops that bring your party to life.

CheckMate Dev 3 Jun 2026 New

At-a-Glance home-screen widget for iOS and Android. Plus a redesigned XP breakdown and buff/debuff journal cards.

CheckMate Dev 31 Mar 2026 Polish

iPad calendar support. Show-more controls for long descriptions, checklists, raider lists, and rewards. Friend requests and push notifications working end-to-end. Onboarding now completes even with notifications enabled. Fixed 1 bug.
