1.1.0

October 27, 2026

A big one. Thanks for keeping up with your mates. • Howdy Mate! now speaks 17 languages • Share a link, photo or text to a mate from any app's share sheet • The Home Screen widget has a fresh look, drawn in ink like the app • Call or text from a mate's page and the catch-up logs itself when you come back • Speak a recap instead of typing it. It's transcribed on your iPhone, and any dates you mention become reminders • Reminders now say what you did last time, with a Text button that starts the hello for you • Plan something with mates, share it, and the next day it asks whether it happened • "Something happened…" lines up gentle check-ins after a loss, a new baby or a move • Remember the little things, keep gift ideas, and see what time it is where a mate lives • Snooze until tomorrow, the weekend, next week or a date you pick • Important dates now send a reminder a week out and on the day • Recap adds time together, quiet ones, reconnections, how catch-ups feel, and a year you can share • Ask Siri who's due or log a check-in, plus a Log button on the widget and in Control Center • A Focus filter keeps nudges quiet at work • With Apple Intelligence, openers are drafted on your iPhone. Nothing leaves it
