What's New in Superstitions

3.1

October 11, 2026

Superstitions now runs natively on iPad, in every orientation. The tabs sit along the top and open into a sidebar at a tap, every page keeps a comfortable reading width, and the painted plates show at their proper proportions. The widgets come to the iPad Home Screen too, with every belief still shown whole at each size, and the text now sits centred on the card. The iPhone layout is unchanged. The moon and the sun are now worked out by the same astronomy engine as our other sky apps, checked against the US Naval Observatory and NASA JPL. Moon phases, the days of the new and full moon, sunrise and sunset at your place and the peaks of the meteor showers are all more precise, so the lore keyed to them falls on the right day.
