Announcing Yearly v1.5.0: New Features and a Peek into the Future

Dear Yearly community,

Firstly, we owe you an apology for the recent hiatus in our updates. Life, with its whirlwind of activities, from a literal tornado to house projects welcoming the spring, alongside the joy of learning Japanese, my full-time job, and nurturing a relationship, has kept me incredibly busy. Despite the hustle, my thoughts constantly revolve around Yearly, driven by your invaluable feedback and the shared journey of making Yearly better every day.

Version 1.5.0 Updates

We’re thrilled to announce the release of Yearly v1.5.0, which brings a host of exciting updates to enhance your experience:

• Siri Shortcut Integration: We’ve begun integrating with Siri to make tracking your trends as seamless as possible. Simply say, “Hey Siri, update my Trend,” and follow her prompts to input your trend data hands-free!

• Ability to Remove a Trend Entry: We recognize that mistakes happen. Now, if you’ve accidentally logged an entry on the wrong day, you can easily remove it, ensuring your trends remain accurate.

• Various Bug Fixes and Language Improvements: This update addresses minor bugs for smoother app performance and corrects spelling mistakes across the 30+ languages Yearly supports. Additionally, we’ve refined how trends are deleted, allowing for their data to be exported even if a trend is accidentally removed.

• Year View Statistics Fix: We’ve corrected the statistics calculation in the Year View to ensure your yearly progress is accurately represented.
