What's New in Stowe
2.6
September 27, 2026
Stowe 2.6 — Break it down gets a lot better at steps. • Break it down now works out what a task actually means before writing any steps. If a task is too vague to break down, it says so instead of inventing steps. • Break it down now understands the world a little better. When a task names something real — a form, a scheme, a service — Stowe looks it up before writing the steps. Only a short search phrase leaves your phone, nothing is kept, and you can turn it off under Settings › Break it down. • Steps stay with the task. They no longer reset each day. • The step list has its own look, tinted by the task it belongs to. Today shows a short "2 of 5 steps" count instead of every step laid open, and Break this down is in the edit form too. • Steps are easier to work with: bigger text and a bigger tap target for checking one off, and a confirm button when you add or rewrite a step. • Suggestions no longer depend on how full today's plan is, and there's no fixed cap — you see whatever genuinely clears the bar. • Each kind of item now has a faint background wash in its own colour. • A calmer first minute. Type one thing or pick a few from a short list, see today’s plan take shape under them, and keep it — three screens, no permissions asked until you need them. Voice arrives on Capture once your plan is kept. Stowe still runs capture on the device — voice capture, transcription and structuring happen locally, so capture works in Aeroplane Mode. Break it down, Suggestions and Refine may use Apple's Private Cloud Compute when helpful.

You hold the microphone button and speak your tasks, errands, or appointments. Stowe then processes your speech to create separate items, guessing repetitions and due dates. You can also type tasks if preferred.

How does Stowe track progress and streaks?
Stowe counts planning and reviewing your list as keeping your day. It uses a streak system that doesn't reset to zero if you miss a day, offering a 'freeze' to cover missed days instead of penalizing you.
