## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2 — 2026-07-30

Settings

• Lumis now has a Settings screen — the gear next to the bell.
• Ruler size: adjust how tightly the date ruler packs on the Sun and Stars tabs. Drag left to spread the ticks apart for finer hour-scrubbing, right to see more days. A live preview sits right above the slider.
• Language: a direct route to system Settings, where you can change the app's language.
• About Lumis moved into Settings.

### 1.1 — 2026-07-26

Reminders, per event

• Give each moment its own reminder time, or keep one shared time for all — Lumis asks before moving reminders you have already set.
• Pick any time you like on hour and minute wheels, not just the presets.
• The event card now shows the reminder you already have, so you never set it twice.

Calendar

• Adding an event now opens Apple's event screen, filled in and waiting for your confirmation — nothing is saved behind your back.
• Once it is in your calendar, you can edit or delete it straight from Lumis.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-07-19

• Fixed the Apple Watch app showing yesterday's data (and "no more events") after midnight
• Watch widgets now update their language when you change it

### 1.0.2 — 2026-07-17

• Notifications now work the way you'd expect: toggles show exactly what's scheduled for the selected day, past moments can't be switched on, reminders can be turned off, and they follow your selected location
• If notifications or calendar access are off in the system Settings, Lumis now offers to open them
• Fixed cards briefly disappearing after closing a window in landscape
• Landscape looks much better: two-column planet view, tidy centered layouts and date picker
• iPad: windows no longer open at the wrong size, and tapping outside a window closes it

### 1.0.1. — 2026-07-16

• Fixed a crash when closing a planet card and quickly switching tabs
• Fixed cards briefly disappearing after closing a sheet
• The sun arc now reflects the season: a low winter sun rides just above the horizon, a high summer one arcs across the whole card
