What's New in Satoru

1.1

July 15, 2026

Exports now reach the places you actually keep things. Your encryption key file, your encrypted backup, and your PDF exports go through the share sheet, so they can land in a cloud drive, in Files, or in an email to a care provider. PDFs export as real PDF files. Check in from your home screen. A new widget and a Siri shortcut let you log a mood in one tap, without opening the app. Your guides can speak. Replies can be read aloud, and you can dictate an entry instead of typing it. A thorough accessibility pass. VoiceOver labels across the app and the Apple Watch app, stronger color contrast on every theme, and text sizing that respects your settings. Premium now starts with a 7-day free trial. Fixes: pattern analysis no longer loses text if you switch cards while it is still writing. Journal entries can be selected and copied, including the reflections inside them. Signing in with Apple no longer leaves you looking at an empty journal.

Daily Game Changer

I've added Satoru into my morning coffee and nightly wind-down routines. Honestly, it’s a total game-changer.

Instead of staring at a blank screen trying to figure out what to write, I get to actually chat through my day with AI guides modeled after Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, or a CBT coach. Sitting down with a "Morning Intention" really locks in my mindset for the day, and doing an "Evening Reflection" before sleep is the best way to clear my head. It’s private, zero pressure, and has hands-down become the favorite part of my daily routine.
