What's New in Sofa

5.4

October 14, 2026

Hey gang, I hope you're ready for some goodies! ============================ IPHONE DUO ============================ Sofa is ready with full support for iPhone Duo. ============================ PODCAST PLAYER ============================ PODCAST PLAYER REDESIGN The podcast player has a fresh new look. It morphs open from the mini player, takes its colors from the episode's artwork, and keeps Up Next, Chapters and Notes right inside. Playback is smarter about what comes next, Voice Boost is improved, and feeds refresh and download overnight while charging. PODCAST TRANSCRIPTS Read along with your podcasts. If a show publishes a transcript, it's right there in the player. If it doesn't, Sofa can make one itself, entirely on your device: tap Generate, or let it quietly transcribe your downloaded episodes overnight while your phone charges. Either way, a live highlight follows along word by word as you listen, so you never lose your place. ============================ PROGRESS TRACKING ============================ SESSIONS Ever wonder how long that book really took you, or how many hours you've sunk into a game? Now Sofa can tell you. Each time you log progress, add how long you spent and how far you got, in pages, chapters or whatever fits, and Sofa keeps a running total for every item. If you'd rather not estimate, start a timer when you sit down and stop it when you're done. It stays in view across the app, on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, so pausing for a snack is one tap. STATS & LOGBOOK Your sessions now show up in Stats and the Logbook. Books, Games, Music and Custom Category Stats get a Sessions section with time spent, totals for each unit and a weekly chart, and Logbook rows show session totals at a glance. ============================ SHORTCUTS ============================ - Get Items can now filter by Completed, and items include Completed and Date Completed for use in your own logic. - New actions: Start Session, Stop Session, Pause Session, Resume Session, and Get Ingredient Value. - Log Progress and Add Journal Entry take Duration and Amount. - Items expose Properties, Current Value, Total, Checkpoint Type, Session Count and Total Session Time. - Get Items no longer returns Quick Log entries, logbook stamps and episodes as duplicate items, and Category = Book now matches every book, not just manually added ones. ============================ IMPROVEMENTS ============================ - Caught-up shows no longer appear in the Dusty section of the Enjoying tab. - Improved multiple window support. Each window keeps its own place in your Lists and is titled after what it shows. Open a new one with ⌃⌘N. - Drag items from a list onto another list in the sidebar to move them, one at a time or a whole selection. And if you drop them in the wrong place, moves can now be undone. - Long-press (or right-click on Mac) a link on an item's detail screen to copy it. - Logbook: Date Only timestamps. A new Timestamps option in Settings → Logbook hides the time on Logbook entries and in the date pickers. Your times are still saved, so you can switch back whenever. - Added a "To Watch" progress format for TV shows that counts only aired episodes, plus examples of every format in the TV Shows tracking settings. - Video Game search improvements. - Improved reliability when saving Ingredients from an item's detail screen. ============================ BUG FIXES ============================ Enjoy the many bug fixes that I can't fit into these release notes. ============================ As always, don't hesitate to reach out with feedback, issues, and suggestions. I'm always happy to hear from you: support@sofahq.com – Shawn

More2,UnStand!

Sub prices keeps going up!

Beware: Developer keeps raising monthly/annual price. No issues with the app. It’s great.

Feature bloat

It is now so complex with so many features and no thought through UI that it is increasingly unusable. I can’t work out how to record the fact that I have seen a movie or a TV show

Everything I Ever Wanted

Genuinely this is my favorite tracking app for all of my media. I love being able to track books, movies, shows, albums, etc all in one place, and the stats function is brilliant. The developer is truly so kind and takes all user feedback seriously, which is so rare nowadays. Thank you Sofa for making me enjoy my hobbies even more!!

No video games!

I downloaded it for video games. especially console games. But the search doesn’t work for that. Useless app for gamers.

Response from developer

Video games are working again. It was brief interruption…sorry about that!
