## What is ChillMate?

ChillMate is a calm, private companion for looking after yourself, with no judgment and nothing to prove. Whether you are planning ahead, checking in with yourself, or finding your feet again afterwards, it keeps the things that matter in one private overview that never leaves your iPhone.

No ads. No tracking. Nothing sold. Just a quiet space that is yours.

PLAN AHEAD
- Set a simple plan for the night: when to head home, how you'll get there, what you want to keep in mind, and who to call if you need them.
- Note the personal limits you want to hold, and let ChillMate gently remind you.
- Keep clear, neutral wellbeing information from verified, official public-health sources close by.

CHECK IN WITH YOURSELF
- A private overview of your last three months: check-ins, sleep, mood, and rest in one calm view.
- Gentle, non-judgmental insights that show patterns as neutral signals, never a score to feel bad about.
- Optional Apple Health sync for sleep, heart rate, HRV, and workouts, only for the categories you allow.

STAY ON TOP OF REMINDERS
- Keep track of appointments, checkups, and medication timing.
- Set your own reminders and follow-ups, on your schedule.

REFLECT AND RECOVER
- Gentle prompts for the days that follow, and a private journal for the harder moments.
- A pause tool to slow things down and give a decision a little more time.
- Daily affirmations if you want a softer landing when you open the app.

HELP WHEN YOU NEED IT
- Panic support with breathing and grounding exercises.
- An emergency card, a trusted contact, and a one-tap location message.
- Safe Route to help you get home, and quick links to crisis and health support services.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
- Your profile, notes, plans, and reminders are stored on your iPhone.
- Add a Face ID or PIN lock, and turn on discreet notifications so lock-screen wording stays vague.
- Optional encrypted backup to your own iCloud, accessible only to you.
- No advertising, no analytics trackers, and your personal information is never sold or shared.

ChillMate is a wellbeing and reflection tool. It does not diagnose, and it does not decide whether anything is safe. Its information is drawn from trusted public-health sources and is meant to support, not replace, a conversation with a qualified professional. If someone may be in immediate danger, call your local emergency number.

Free, made with care, and built for adults.


## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 5.0.0 — 2026-09-17

THE DAY AFTER, FINALLY 
That part nobody talks about: the day after. The reference section now tells you how long after-effects are reported to last, not just the effects themselves. For some things that reaches well into the next day, and now you can see it coming.

Timings depend on how something was taken, too. Swallowed can take far longer to arrive than inhaled, and ChillMate had been showing you one when you meant the other. That one had been bugging me for a long time.

Two more things can be logged and checked. And every combination is now compared against a published independent reference, which turned up four ratings that were sitting too low. They have been raised.

WITHOUT UNLOCKING YOUR PHONE 
• A Lock Screen widget for a running check-in timer. Glance, done. 
• A check-in for the way home. Say roughly how long you will be, one tap closes it. No destination on screen, nothing sent to anyone. Just you and your phone. 
• Ask Siri for panic support. Out loud, hands free, whenever.

NO WALL AT THE START 
Setup can be skipped from the very first screen. Nothing in the app is locked behind it, and nothing ever should have been.

IN YOUR ACTUAL LANGUAGE 
This one stung. A lot of the app was still coming out in English no matter what you picked: safety information, reminders, setup, even the message you send your trusted contact. All translated now. All five languages, properly.

ALSO WORTH KNOWING 
• Big text sizes no longer chop labels in half, and the calendar reads out properly. 
• Clearer emergency guidance, step by step, for the minutes before help arrives. 
• Plenty of smaller fixes.

### 4.3.0 — 2026-08-26

Hands full? Just ask.

Say "Check a mix with ChillMate" and hear the answer out loud. Start a timer, log what you took, never unlock your phone. Panic support and water are one tap in Control Center now, and Shortcuts can start a timer the moment you arrive somewhere.

FEWER SHRUGS, MORE ANSWERS
Every combination ChillMate knows about is rated now, all 66 of them, up from 30. The ones that used to come back "nothing on file" come back with something you can use. Three new checks watch breathing, heart strain and blood pressure, and they count your prescriptions too.

A GLANCE IS ENOUGH
Your Lock Screen timer fills as the session runs, shows when it ends, and logs water in one tap. Alerts that matter, like a PEP window, now cut through a Focus. The gentle ones stay gentle.

LESS APP, MORE YOU
Settings went from eleven cards to five groups. Your profile is one page instead of four. iCloud backup finally says when it last ran, and ChillMate can clear old logs on a schedule you choose.

YOUR WATCH HAS YOUR BACK
It reads resting heart rate and breathing rate, and saves your breathing sessions to Health. When the night is over, one tap on "I'm home safe" and the check-ins stop.

THINGS WE OWED YOU
In Dutch, German, French and Spanish your profile came up blank, and a lot of the app quietly stayed in English. Both fixed. Breathing support now starts on "Breathe in", where it always should have. VoiceOver reads every screen properly. Ready for iOS 27.

### 4.2.1 — 2026-08-14
