## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.27 — 2026-08-21

You can now clear the saved diagnostics log without deleting your timeline. Footsteps confirms before removing the log and keeps your diagnostics choices unchanged.

### 1.0.26 — 2026-08-18

Trips recovered from sparse or delayed location updates now retain honest timing and movement evidence without inventing route distance. Diagnostics better explain arrival and departure decisions. The Map now frames the day reliably on first open.

### 1.0.25 — 2026-08-04

Ground trips on elevated terrain are now less likely to be misclassified as flights when motion evidence is weak. Long Activity and Saved Places durations are also easier to read at a glance.

### 1.0.24 — 2026-08-03

Saved Places now keeps browsing and editing responsive by pausing hidden Insights calculations until Insights is open. Insights calculations also run away from the main interface so larger histories remain easier to navigate.

### 1.0.23 — 2026-08-02

Saved Places map details now close automatically when search or filters hide the selected place, so actions always match the visible pins. The map also explains how many saved places are hidden and lets you open tightly clustered places by tapping again.
