What's New in Family Diary
1.0.23 (1)
August 15, 2026
Two fixes from families using the app this week. Photos now open cleanly, with the buttons where your thumb expects them instead of crowded against the bottom of the screen. And when you open a family member's diary, the "Ask a question" button now fits properly, however long their name is.
