What's New in Sometimes

1.4.1

July 7, 2026

Bug fixes for poem delivery: Some readers received more or fewer poems than their chosen frequency, or poems outside their chosen hours. Both are fixed. The delivery system now follows your preferences. Additionally: Expanded notifications now match the reader's look and scale with your text size. iPad navigation is smoother and more consistent. Thank you to everyone who shared their feedback.

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.
