What's New in Thoughtful
1.2.15
October 6, 2026
Quieter where it matters, warmer everywhere else. - Reminders for someone you remember now arrive with no chime and no badge. - Saving a note tells you when it will come back: "Your note will be ready tomorrow at 9:00 AM." - A Text button on every person's card, on any day. No confetti, just a hello. - An empty Sunday can suggest one person to text, just because, if you have not been in touch for a while. - Also text: link a second person to an anniversary and the card offers them too. - The week-ahead heads-up invites you to write a note when the person has none yet. - Countdowns stay right around the clock change in March.
