Chain 0.43.2

• Set independent goals for each project or for unassigned focus, edit their wording, and complete them into lasting records.
• Choose and reorder up to three completed goals to feature, or leave your case empty. Goals and featured selections sync across Windows and Android.
• Continue a focus session between Windows and Android while preserving its timer, intention, project allocations and breaks. Connected starts prevent overlapping sessions; interrupted banking retains its original stop time.
• Start focus with a responsive transition, a compact project selector, a clearly labeled intention and the active project's goal.
• Keep Return to focus in the main session bar and simplify navigation through details.
• Carry daily forge heat across sessions, see clearer warm-up progress, and view bonus XP in the banking receipt. Daily forge bonus XP begins on 13 September 2026 at 00:00 UTC; existing XP is preserved.
• Enjoy a new banking ceremony with visible XP gains, level and era transitions, milestone celebrations, Skip, Replay and a complete reduced-motion receipt.
• Open saved-up Vein rewards faster, with coordinated animation, sound and a counted finish.
• Choose Stable or opt-in Preview updates in Settings, with clear descriptions and controls that follow light and dark mode.
• Include the current session's net focus in Today's furnace and label it as unbanked.
• Improve the Windows project picker, keyboard navigation and Today scrolling.

Chain 0.43.1 Preview

• Windows: Starting focus now responds immediately, with continuous button feedback while session checks finish and a smooth transition into focus. Failed starts keep your project and intention for retry.
• Both platforms: Replace the basic update-channel dropdown with clear Stable and Preview choices, short descriptions, a selected checkmark and styling that follows light and dark mode.
• Android: Refresh session ownership promptly when work moves back to desktop, including while the phone remains open. Older overlapping refreshes no longer leave stale session controls on screen.
• Android: Restore the welcome logo's neutral body and copper accent in both themes.

For final testing: start focus and Go again, try both update-channel choices, and continue a session desktop → phone → desktop without tapping Bank on the phone. Check that the phone relinquishes its timer and notification, then bank once and confirm one matching history entry on both devices. Also check light/dark mode and reduced motion.

These are Preview patches for Windows 0.43.0 / Android 0.32.0. Stable promotion awaits final testing.

Chain 0.43.0 Preview

• Continue a running focus session between phone and desktop, preserving its timer, intention, project allocations and break accounting. Connected starts check ownership, and interrupted banking keeps the original stop time for retry.
• Build forge heat across the day's focus sessions, with clearer heat guidance and receipts that explain the additional XP earned.
• Rebuild the banking celebration on both platforms with visible XP progression, level and era transitions, milestone scenes, immediate Skip, Replay and a complete reduced-motion receipt.
• Give saved-up Vein openings a faster coordinated pour, sound and counted finish.
• Refine Windows project selection, keyboard navigation and Today scrolling.
• Improve Android Guild defaults and chain-flick volume, and keep older earned medals visible.

Retest continuation in both directions, a locked phone, open breaks, restarting after transfer, offline banking retries and a single final history entry on both devices. Also check short and long session receipts, multiple level crossings, Skip/Replay, reduced motion, project selection and large Vein openings.

Daily forge XP activates on 13 September 2026 at 00:00 UTC (02:00 Berlin time). Update both devices before that cutoff; older session pricing is preserved.

Chain 0.42.1 Preview

• Clarify the focus screen with a compact project selector, a labeled session intention, and the selected project's active goal under "Working toward" on Windows and Android.
• Keep Return to focus in the main session bar; remove duplicate shortcuts from detail sheets and hide goal preparation buttons during a live session.
• Use the same running-session bar on Windows Today as on other browsing screens.
