What's New in Shado
1.0.3
August 29, 2026
Voice entries now continue through pauses — stop, think, and pick back up without losing what you said. The guide asks a few clarifying questions again before it writes, and reflections read more like themselves. Memory recognizes recurring patterns it used to miss, so the connections between entries are real ones. Scrolls can be listened to. Settings, and everything that opens from it, has been rebuilt. The journal, dashboard and journey open instantly instead of reloading each time. Onboarding is shorter.
