What's New in Small Hours

5.3

September 7, 2026

Small Hours 5.3. Undo, everywhere it matters. • Delete a memory, swap a photo or take something off the Fridge, and a small note offers it back for a few seconds. No more "are you sure" dialogs. • Took a better photo at bathtime? The add menu now offers to swap today's. • Songs and voice notes can be shared as cards, like photos and milestones. • Grandparents can play the day's look-backs as one story, and the Fridge says how many memories are new. • A note or a milestone opens on the memory itself, not on a picture of its kind. • The growth log shows the percentile as a figure, says which curves it was read against, and can undo a deleted measurement. • A memory added to an earlier day says where it went, with a Show Me. • Every figure and label is set in one face across the app, and every confirmation looks the same wherever it appears. • Dozens of smaller refinements: the composers all run in the same order, the paywall leads with the price, a purchase opens the thing you tapped, and every long render can be stopped.
