## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.1.4 — 2026-10-02

New: iPad can now turn to landscape. Mini games stay in a tall play area in the middle of the screen.
Changed: locking your iPhone and then unlocking it straight into another app now pauses the timer, like any app switch.
Changed: mini game points go to your total at once, so you keep them even if you give up the wait. The cooldown now starts when a round starts.
Fixed: your streak counts the day you waited, even if you collect the points after midnight. A wait across midnight counts for both days.
Improved: text fits better at large text sizes, world items stay fully on screen, and a paused mini game ignores a finger held on the screen.

### 1.1.3 — 2026-09-27

New: every mini game has clearer rules with exact points, a hint to get started and a big finish banner.
New: Gem Slider moves a whole row or column in one tap, and each row has its own color so you can see where every gem belongs.
New: Rock Stacker shows a guide line where your rock will land.
New: Snowball Roll steers more smoothly. Drag anywhere or tilt, and corners are easier to turn.
New: Lava Dodge warns you before fast embers drop in.
Fixed: bonus points from collectibles and mini games stay saved if the app closes during a wait.
Changed: the timer now stops when you close the app from the App Switcher, so your wait time stays accurate.
Improved: smoother animations, better battery use, and text that fits on small screens and large text sizes.
