## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.12.0 — 2026-08-19

Thanks for using Pictopoem!

Chinese poems are here.
• Write in Simplified or Traditional Chinese — each is composed on its own terms, not transcoded from the other.
• Eight forms to choose from: five- and seven-character jueju, lüshi, ci, ancient-style verse, modern verse, doggerel, and a single line.
• Chinese poems stand vertically by default, set in an embedded kai typeface made for verse, with adjustable line spacing.

Also new
• Not in the mood for a poem? The new one-line mode writes a single sentence meant to stay with you — in English, Japanese or Chinese.
• Your poems no longer have to follow your phone's language. Pick it under Settings → Poem Language, so you can get a haiku on an English phone, or an English poem on a Japanese one.
• Japanese poems now stand vertically by default, and you can tune the line spacing to taste.
• Haiku, tanka, waka, chōka, senryū — and every Chinese form — now come with a one-line explanation, so you know what you're choosing.
• Print your poem cards straight from the app with AirPrint, and shared images are sharper.
• A new app icon.
• Open source licenses for the bundled typefaces now live under Settings.

Fixed
• The Age Type setting now actually reaches the poem — it had been silently dropped before it ever got there.
• A garbled font name in the font picker, and a typo in the Japanese text on shared poem cards.

### 1.11.0 — 2026-08-14

Thanks for using Pictopoem!

• If a poem can't be generated, you can now send us a problem report by email right from the app.
• Stability improvements and small fixes.

### 1.10.0 — 2026-07-07

Your poems now have a home.

• My Poems — Every card you save or share is now kept in a personal gallery. Revisit, re-share, or save any past creation anytime.
• Re-edit — Tap any saved poem to reopen it exactly as you left it — same photo, verse, layout, and fonts — and keep refining.
• Poems that know the moment — Verses can now gently echo where and when your photo was taken, for lines that feel truly yours.
• Smoother poem placement — Dragging a poem across your image now moves cleanly, with its backdrop following along.

### 1.9.2 — 2024-11-07

Make the processing indicator clearly visible when selecting "Show Poem on Image".

### 1.9.1 — 2024-11-05

Reset poem position when a new image is selected.
