BillMinder v2.4.1

BillMinder 2.4.1 makes the private bill tracker easier to install, evaluate, and trust.

Highlights

• One signed APK now carries every feature, including optional local SMS scanning and full-screen reminders.
• Encrypted .bmbak backups can move bills, payments, settings, split payees, and receipt files between devices.
• Home, Calendar, forecasts, cash-flow planning, and widgets now agree on recurring dates and balances.
• Newly selected category colors now survive storage correctly, so icons remain visible after saving a bill.
• Payment links accept web addresses only, and temporary decrypted receipts are removed after viewing.
• The repository now opens with real product imagery, a direct download path, and a plain-language privacy overview.

The attached APK is signed for installation. The checksum file contains its SHA-256 digest.

v2.4.0

Reworked all six main screens around the approved midnight ledger direction. This release includes tighter Home and Calendar hierarchy, denser Insights, clearer bill details, and a reorganized add-bill form. The Play, F-Droid, and Wear release packages are signed and were built and tested locally.

BillMinder v2.3.0

BillMinder v2.3.0 brings a compact dark ledger to all six main screens. Grouped controls and the seven-day horizon make due states easier to scan. Large text layouts now adapt cleanly, and every screenshot has been refreshed. The Wear OS companion has corrected packaging metadata and a signed installer. Tested on Android 15 at default and 130% font scale.

Fixes a hard crash on first launch on Android 13+ ("Can only use lower 16 bits for requestCode") and a build failure on adaptive-icon vectors. Sideload the APK with "Load unpacked"-style install (Settings > Install unknown apps).
