## Version history (last 5 releases)

### v1.3.8 — 2026-05-26

PulseBoard 1.3.8 is a reliability update focused on keeping the updates you depend on fresh and easier to reach.

- More reliable fuel price updates
- Improved breaking news notification links
- Better Live News TV availability
- Cleaner number coding suspension updates
- Faster, smoother app startup
- The update log now lives in More for easy access

### v1.3.7 — 2026-05-10

Version 1.3.7 polishes a few things and quietly fixes a push notification reliability bug we caught the hard way during a high-priority news event.

Live TV detection is sharper.
GMA primetime broadcasts are better detected when shorts and clips push the live stream past the top of the uploads list. Fewer ghost tiles when feeds shift around mid-show.

Fuel prices update on schedule.
The weekly fuel cron now retries on transient DOE source hiccups instead of skipping the whole cycle. You should see the Tuesday adjustment land more reliably.

Tap a notification, land on the right screen.
Push notifications now deep-link properly. If a breaking news push points at an article, tapping it opens the article. If a fuel update fires, tapping it opens the fuel widget. No more "tap and you're back at Home."

Faster cold start.
Some launch-time work moved off the critical path. The first screen renders a bit sooner, especially on older devices.

Push reliability fix (Android).
A few users on Android were silently failing to register their device for push notifications because of a timing race during sign-in. If you've been signed in but never getting banners, this should fix it on the next cold start.

Behind the scenes: server-side observability across the cron pipeline, retry logic on the slow weekly crons (fuel + daily essentials), and a config fix that prevents future regressions to push delivery.

As always: no drama, just the stuff that matters. Feedback button in More goes to a real person.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-04-01

DZRH News added as 6th live channel. Live stream detection completely rebuilt for accuracy. No more wrong channels or past streams playing.

Widgets now load instantly when enabled for the first time. No more stuck loading screens.

Smoother keyboard handling on all sign-in screens. Input fields move up before the keyboard appears.

Pulse AI now runs through a secure backend.

Better text contrast, consistent pill sizes, and minimum 12px text across the entire app.

Smarter notifications. Only alerts from the last 6 hours trigger a push. No more old earthquake spam.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-03-28

What's new in v1.0.1:

- Faster widgets — no more stuck loading screens
- Sign in with Apple & Google — create an account in one tap
- Live TV revamped — 6 PH news channels with real schedules
- Flight Tracker — now shows airline names and destinations
- News images fixed — no more blank thumbnails
- Smarter notifications — respects quiet hours and daily limits
- Widget empty state — clear prompt when no widgets are enabled
