What's New in Cross Stitch Journal

5.0

August 29, 2026

New Features - Introduced the Cross Stitch Journal Apple Watch app! View your started projects, choose which photo appears on each project card, and start, pause, resume, \ or stop a stitching session right from your wrist. - Added two watch complications: a live timer for your active stitching session, and a project progress gauge you can configure to track any started project. - Added Siri and Shortcuts support for starting, pausing, resuming, and stopping a stitching session — on both iPhone and Apple Watch. - The stitching Live Activity now stays on your Lock Screen for 5 minutes after you end a session, instead of disappearing immediately, and shows a dedicated, \ streamlined layout when mirrored to your Apple Watch. - Your projects are now indexed in Spotlight, so you can search for them from anywhere on your device and jump straight back in. - Added a Contact Support link in Settings for quick access to help. Bug Fixes - Fixed "Choose Random Project" not selecting a project when only one eligible project remained. - Fixed an issue that could allow a duplicate active stitching session to be created. - Import, restore, and "Delete All Data" failures now show an alert describing what went wrong, instead of failing silently. - Photo picker failures now show an alert instead of failing silently. - Fixed an issue where a pause being added to an active log could show an end time equal to the log start time. Other Changes - Behind the scenes work to make code more efficient and maintainable. - Bug fixes and performance improvements.

Helpful

Really helpful and great way to keep track of all of my projects and supplies. My only wish is that under the supplies section we only have 3 type options. Floss, fabric, and other. I wish we could make our own types so that I could be more specific with the other category. Example have a category just for beads, needles, etc.

Okay App but Glitchy

Wanted an app to track my projects and supplies. Paid for the unlimited projects version which seemed to be going okay only freezing up and having to restart the app after making some changes to project supplies. But from today I have been unable to add any more supplies for my projects or update the type of fabric. A bit frustrating and hoping it will be updated on next app update.

Awesome app

Best app out there that does all the tracking type things. It has a timer It will track stitches! It will show you progress photos. It gives you minute by minute detailed information on your projects. Easy to use. And user friendly.

Love the app, but…

Love using this app for tracking time and stitches on each project, but after the latest update it erased all the times I worked in a day on every project. Hope this can get fixed!

Thanks for your feedback. Please make sure that the project list isn't filtering out the project that you added. For example, if you are showing started projects and add a project to the wish list, it won't show up in your list.

Best cross stitch journal app

I’ve been using the app for a while now and loving it. However, I went to add a new project and didn’t save info and didn’t add it. It’s been like that for a few weeks now. Please fix.
