## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.4.3 — 2026-09-02

The Grid: the daily rhythm is finally visible, and finding the word feels like a win, with several small hint and reminder bugs fixed along the way. Links in articles now open without leaving Ara, and tapping a member’s photo opens their profile everywhere in the app. Educational content images no longer hide behind the notch, and notifications are more relevant, less repetitive. A few other small fixes too.

### 1.4.2 — 2026-08-25

Your reminders get a new look: list, detail and calendar are easier to read.
A reopened reminder now shows the right amount, in the right currency.
Today's budget explains how its figure is worked out.
The "Coming up" banner gathers your dated reminders and fixed charges.
Create a budget for a specific month, without waiting for the current one.
App sounds no longer stop the music you are listening to.
On small screens, compact display now turns itself on.
Your country's currency is properly kept when you sign up.

### 1.4.0 — 2026-08-12

### 1.3.7 — 2026-08-04

More flexible email verification. When you log in, Ara prompts you to confirm your email address when necessary. You can postpone this, and confirmation only becomes mandatory after several postponements.
Your points remain yours. Importing a file (CSV, Excel, or JSON) no longer affects your points, level, or rank.

### 1.3.6 — 2026-08-03

Share several budgets or goals with your circle in one move, read-only.
A more reliable Ara assistant: "my biggest expenses this year" answers correctly, and amounts always show the currency (CAD, FCFA…).
Redesigned Games screen: "The Grid" gets its own card, cleaner layout.
Each monthly profile in your reports is now explained in one plain sentence.
