What's New in Sometimes

1.5

September 11, 2026

New poems, and more to discover between arrivals. A seasonal collection now waits in your archive. Read a few lines and choose a poem to keep: one each day, or three a day during your first week. Delivery now follows a steadier weekly rhythm within the hours you choose. Pausing, resuming and changing time zones no longer disturb the schedule. Also in this update: corrected poem texts and translator credits, better sharing and accessibility, bug fixes, and a refined iPad reading room. Thank you to everyone who wrote in.

2026-0708 Their bug fixes are lies. Delete.
2026-June: Recent update changed my settings. I started getting poems what seemed like every hour which was NOT the frequency nor the hours I set. What a nuisance. Might delete.

Response from developer

Sorry for the changed settings, the extra poems and this late reply. With version 1.5 these are fixed. The app keeps to the frequency and hours you set, and changing a setting no longer adds extra poems. It brings a lot of other fixes and polish as well. Everything should be working reliably now. Would really appreciate your thoughts if you try it again. Use the contact form behind the App Support link, or Send Feedback in the app's Settings, and tell me your frequency and hours.
