## What is Murmur?

Murmur is a wellness iOS app for tracking symptoms and activities. It is not a medical device, does not diagnose, treat, or cure any condition, and is not a substitute for professional care. It simply lets you build self-made supports to notice patterns in how you’re feeling and what you’re doing.

At its simplest, you can log symptoms (fatigue, pain, brain fog, etc.) on a 1–5 scale and record activities (appointments, social events, exercise) with their physical, mental, and emotional demands. Everything appears in a timeline view organised by day.

A “load score” accumulates activity demands over time, accounting for delayed effects and slower recovery when symptoms are already high. This may help you spot when you’re approaching overexertion or understand why you feel worse a day or two later.

If you use Apple Health, Murmur can pull in heart-rate variability, resting heart rate, sleep, and menstrual-cycle data to sit alongside your entries. You can also link calendar events, save locations, and add notes.

All data stays on your device, nothing is sent anywhere. Explore the settings to add custom symptom types and mark favourites for quick logging.

People use Murmur in different ways: some track everything to spot triggers, others log rough days to show their doctor, and some use load scores to pace activities. Experiment and keep what feels useful; it’s simply a self-care tool, not medical advice.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.8 — 2025-12-27

Fixes a bug where historic timeline entries would not load if they were the only entries. 
Fixes a range of edge case data issues to ensure entries are shown, and to offer to restore automatically on launch.

### 1.7 — 2025-12-04

Automatic sleep import from Health
Your sleep data now syncs automatically from the Health app. Imported sleep entries are marked with a "From Health" badge, and you can still rate your sleep quality directly in the app.

Redesigned daily summary
The day summary card has a fresh new look with an "instrument cluster" design featuring circular gauges, a larger one for your daily load and a smaller one for intensity, making it easier to see your day at a glance.

Reflect on your felt load
New reflection feature lets you adjust how heavy a day actually felt. If a day hit harder (or lighter) than the numbers suggest, you can now record that.

Swipe actions throughout
Quickly edit or delete any timeline item with swipe gestures.

Bug fixes and performance enhancements.

### 1.6 — 2025-10-27

Bug fixes and performance improvements:
Your data is now backed up at least every 12 hours instead of every 23~ hours. This means your daily backups should be more reliable.
Refined how your training load is calculated to ensure it is consistent and reliable everywhere you see it.
Improved the Settings, Analysis, and Add Activity screens for a smoother experience.

### 1.5 — 2025-10-21

New features
- Enhanced load tracking with meals now contributing to physical, cognitive, and emotional load scores for simpler and accurate capacity monitoring.
- Sleep quality directly impacts recovery rates: good sleep accelerates recovery while poor sleep slows it down, with very poor sleep adding load burden.
- Load capacity calibration tool added to help personalise your training load recommendations based on good day tracking.
- Improved sleep tracking that automatically aggregates fragmented sessions and avoids duplicate entries, automatically suggested between 5-8am daily.

Bug fixes and performance enhancements
- Significant performance improvements when loading data.
- Fixed potential background usage issues in HealthKit integration and audio graph features.
- Fixed an issue which, in extremely rare circumstances, may have allowed broad delete or restore operations.
- Enhanced thread safety and concurrency compliance.
