• Smarter dream matching — the Oracle now recognizes the symbols you actually name in your dream and only shows symbols that truly relate, instead of always listing three. • New: "Why this symbol?" — tap any matched symbol to reveal a personal explanation of how it connects to your specific dream. Your first symbol's insight is always free. • Dream journal entries now keep these personal insights, so past readings grow richer too. • Fixed an issue that could prevent the app from opening after updating. • Polish and stability improvements throughout.
