Version 2.1. A new series. Volume II. The Correspondent: seal a letter until a date to come, to your future self or someone else. It stays closed until the day it is meant to be read. The Sunday Edition: a long-form feature spread, set like a real magazine, from the week you filed. The Illustrated Edition: on-device engraving illustrations for your stories, in your paper style. Voice-first composing: dictate a story and have it set as a column. New edition styles, a Newsroom Insights desk, and a front page that finally puts the new departments up top where you can find them. File something.

Version 2.0. Your paper, properly set. Real typesetting: the front page now flows in justified, hyphenated columns with a true drop cap, set like a real press. The AI Editor-in-Chief, deepened: it can suggest a headline for an untitled story, all on your device, always yours to overrule. The Annual: a beautiful year-in-review edition, composed from the stories you filed. The Circulation Desk: see the arc of your moods and sections over time, drawn as a broadsheet chart. Bound Volumes: export a print-ready keepsake of your paper. Private by default, as always. File something.

Make the paper truly yours. New Art Director mode lets you design your own edition — masthead, accent ink, columns, drop caps. Break the format with new editorial forms: photo essays, comics, classifieds, crosswords and verse. Let an on-device AI Editor-in-Chief draft your week's editorial, add hand-inked illustrations, and print a beautiful broadsheet of your month or year to keep. Private, on-device, free.

Accessibility, top to bottom. The Daily Me now respects your system text size (Dynamic Type), reads cleanly with VoiceOver, and honours Reduce Motion, Reduce Transparency and Increase Contrast. There is a new in-app Accessibility section too, with bolder headlines and a higher-contrast option. Still on-device. Still yours alone.

Your Recap, now written by your iPhone — not the cloud. On-device Foundation Models read your headlines and write the Recap reflection. The model never leaves your device. Ask Siri: start a new story, open today's edition, hear your Recap, recall what you wrote on a date. Writing Tools available in Compose — proofread, rewrite, and summarise without your words ever crossing a network. Private Couples Mode now syncs received letters via iCloud sharing, off by default and end-to-end through your own iCloud. Editorial polish: cleaner Front Page chrome, calmer transitions, and a Recap Edition that updates in place when the model is finished. Five sections. One masthead. Private by default.

A bigger, richer edition — without ever leaving the page. SPEAK YOUR STORY — a new microphone in Compose, and a first-class "Spoken Edition" reached from the Front Page. Tap to dictate. The Daily Me transcribes your voice on this device — no cloud, no transcript service. Spoken Edition keeps the audio take alongside the filed story; the words sync, the recording stays on the device that made it. LIVE ACTIVITIES — the press never stops. While you're recording, while you're composing, while today's edition awaits filing, and when your press run is at risk near midnight, a quiet editorial chip in the Dynamic Island carries the moment. Tap to file. Tap to stop. FOUR NEW NOTIFICATIONS — Recap ready, milestones and anniversaries, a soft morning edition and a soft evening edition (both off by default). Every notification carries the masthead in the editorial voice. Quick actions: file the thought, skip today, move to evening. Only the rare "press run ends tonight" save stays time-sensitive. PER-TYPE SETTINGS — each notification type has its own toggle and time. A quiet-hours window can mute routine notifications around bedtime. Your existing daily prompt time carries over automatically. PLUS — everything from the biggest update so far: the Recap Edition, enhanced clippings (Classic, Front Page, Torn-out, Press Proof, Night Edition), a gentler in-app rating ask, the optional Night Edition dark mode, optional private iCloud sync (off by default, your own iCloud, never our servers), and a private couples layer. Five sections. One masthead. Private by default.

Bug fix. Fixes a navigation bug introduced in 1.2 where the Compose and Settings tabs could become unresponsive. Thank you for the reports — and apologies for the inconvenience. Your filed stories and settings are unchanged.

The biggest edition yet. THE RECAP EDITION — a periodically reprinted issue that gathers the conversations you filed this month, this season, this year, and reflects on them. Plus "On This Day" — a past entry from this exact date, resurfaced — and a mood-and-theme arc of where your writing has been. ENHANCED CLIPPINGS — share a single story in several beautifully designed editorial cards: Classic, Front Page, Torn-out, Press Proof, Night Edition. The black-bar redaction for names and dates is exactly as before — nothing leaves the page you didn't choose. A GENTLER ASK — the rating prompt is now a quiet in-app question first. Only a "yes" ever opens the App Store; "not really" goes to a private note that never does. There is now a permanent "Rate The Daily Me" in Settings, only if you wish. RICHER NOTIFICATIONS — the daily prompt now carries the masthead and the actual line, in the editorial voice, and stays a normal, quiet notification. Only the rare "your press run ends tonight" save is time-sensitive. PLUS — show or hide the red FILED stamp (and choose where it prints), the optional Night Edition dark mode, optional private iCloud sync (off by default, your own iCloud, never our servers), a private couples layer, and the Mac edition. Five sections. One masthead. Private by default.

A quiet edition. No new sections — just a steadier press. This update is polish: smoother filing, sharper layout on the front page, and reliability fixes under the hood so the paper opens fast and stays out of your way. A reminder of what The Daily Me is: a private newspaper for the conversations you had, avoided, imagined, ended, or still need to have. Five sections. One masthead. Nothing leaves your phone. If it's been a while since your last issue, the press is still warm. File something.
