## What is CrewBrief?

CrewBrief is the all-in-one companion for airline crew, built around your schedule, your recovery, and your life on the road.

TRIP BRIEF & SCHEDULE
See your next flight, departure time, and layover at a glance. Your duty schedule, logbook, and trip details stay in one place.

RECOVERY & HEALTH
Connect Apple Health to bring in sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, and activity. CrewBrief turns those signals into a daily recovery and fatigue picture so you can plan rest around demanding rotations.

TRAINING & NUTRITION
Log workouts and meals, follow a training plan, and keep your nutrition on target whether you are home or on a layover.

TASKS & TRAVEL
Keep todos, goals, credentials, and personal trips organized around an unpredictable schedule.

CrewBrief Pro unlocks the full app. A subscription is required after the free trial; founding-member accounts are included at no charge.

Health information in CrewBrief is provided for wellness and informational purposes and is not medical advice.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.9 — 2026-09-24

What's new:
- Sleep and recovery now tell the truth when your watch was off. If there's no reading for last night, CrewBrief says so and offers to log it by hand, instead of carrying an older night forward as if it were last night's.
- Because of that, a recovery score or a possible-illness flag is never raised from missing or stale overnight data.
- Fixes a case where a sleep reading could be filed under the day it synced rather than the night it actually measured.

### 1.0.8 — 2026-09-23

What's new:
- Countdowns now lead with your DEPARTURE time everywhere — home screen, Lock Screen, flight brief and schedule all read the same clock.
- Layover brief rebuilt: hotel name and address, a tap-to-call front desk that dials correctly from any country, live local time, currency conversion, plug type, airport guide, and more places to eat and see nearby.
- Your layover hotel and its address come through from your roster again, and the brief switches to your next station as departure gets close.
- Each flight now appears once on your schedule — a roster flight that also arrives through a synced calendar no longer shows twice.
- The flight brief is always reachable, including on a personal trip or a day off.
- Task and reminder notifications are working again — the scheduler had been failing silently.
- Offline: a locked phone no longer looks like a signed-out one, your settings are cached, and the app refreshes quietly in the background so it is current when you open it.
- Sleep finds your actual night instead of summing the last 18 hours, and jet-lag guidance now accounts for the flights already on your schedule.
- Tasks: editing and saving a task works from anywhere in the form.
- Food and training: database-backed nutrition you can correct one line at a time, plus accurate workout duration and calories.
- Finance has been removed from the app for now.
- New pricing: $9.99/month or $99/year.
- Faster loading across trips and schedule.

### 1.0.7 — 2026-09-05

What's new:

- Layovers: your hotel, its gym and what's worth doing nearby now show up when you land — and the brief keeps a LAYOVER tab you can open mid-flight.
- Logbook: imports now bring PIC, SIC, cross-country, night and instrument time across every supported format instead of dropping them, tail numbers come back on flown legs, and a flight number flown twice in one day logs both legs.
- Schedule: your carrier's published report time wins over a computed one, so the countdown, sleep plan and leave-by all agree.
- Duty & rest: augmented trips are no longer scored against a two-pilot limit, and crew complement is labelled an estimate when we can't see the real roster.
- Your day now ends at your next sleep. On a layover, meals and workouts after local midnight stay in the day you were still living instead of splitting across two.
- Food: database foods carry their real macros, you can fix a portion after logging, and a photo-drafted meal is editable item by item.
- Training: the app detects the gym you're standing in (and lets you override it), the exercise catalogue follows one naming convention, and the tab paints instantly.
- Finance: bank transactions that were being filtered out — rent, payments to people, interest — now appear, and deposits are recorded as income.
- Intel: local news is actually local to where you are.

Plus a long list of smaller fixes from real trips.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-07-26

What's new:
- Training: your customizations to a workout day now save — during a session or from the menu. Exercise photos and step-by-step instructions for every exercise, and the weight editor shows your recent sessions of that lift.
- "Always categorize this merchant" now applies to your past transactions too, not just future ones.
- Uploaded lab reports count toward Body Age immediately — no extra confirmation step.
- Type your exact serving size when logging scanned foods.
- Budget and per-diem accuracy fixes, and a clearer Retirement page.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-07-24

What's new:
- Atlas pilots: sign up entirely in the app. Pick Atlas Air, enter your eCrew login, and your schedule, profile and pay connect automatically. No web signup, no pair code.
- Transactions now show your full month, and you can recategorize any transaction with a tap.
- Bank connections load faster and honestly show every linked bank, including any that need reconnecting.
- Smarter trip flow: layover guidance leads longer on long layovers, destination previews load faster, and entry-document guidance covers the first border you cross.
- Many accuracy fixes across Pay, Savings and Retirement.
