## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.2 — 2026-10-26

This release is about seeing your practice more clearly — and making the app work for more people.

* A new Progress tab
Progress charts now live in their own space, with detailed charts, insights and your reflections in one place. Watch patterns emerge — consistency, duration, and how you felt — in one single place

* Better blog browsing
The blog now has search and filters, so finding that article on anapana or the right retreat read takes seconds, not scrolling.

* Accessibility throughout
Full VoiceOver support, large dynamic text, and a proper dark mode for early-morning and late-night sitters. Metta now adapts to how you use it.

Sit well.

### 2.1.1 — 2026-10-19

1.  Reflect on Your Sittings
After completing a meditation session, add a word or short phrase in the reflection alert after the sitting is completed to capture how you feel or what you noticed.
Your reflections will help bring richer insights to your meditation progress charts in a future update.

Every sit is an opportunity to learn more about yourself.

2. Never miss your next sit
New meditation reminders — Set local notifications to remind you when it’s time to sit. You’re in control with dedicated notification settings, so you can choose how Metta keeps you on track.

3. Rate Metta from Settings
Enjoying your meditation practice with Metta? You can now rate the app directly from Settings and share your feedback with us.

4. Better & more reliable
We’ve also squashed a bunch of bugs and made improvements across the app for a smoother meditation experience.

Thank you for practicing with Metta.
