Hydrion V.1.2.0-shark

Track your hydration with pride. 💧🌈🦈

Hydrion V.1.2.0-shark is the most complete, tested, and release-hardened Hydrion build so far.

This release expands personalized hydration, wake and sleep-aware pacing, local reminders, weather assistance, challenges, Android and iOS widgets, permissions, responsive layouts, localization, profile experiences, local data control, and cross-platform release validation.

Hydrion is designed for every body, every identity, and every hydration journey.

Release version: 1.2.0+4

Highlights

Personalized hydration

Hydrion's hydration system now keeps the user's calculated recommendation, contextual adjustments, and selected daily goal clearly separated.

• Added a bounded personalized hydration baseline using eligible body measurements.
• Preserved the selected daily goal as an independent user-controlled value.
• Body measurements never silently overwrite the user's active goal.
• BMI remains a private secondary signal rather than a direct hydration target.
• Activity can contribute a bounded contextual hydration adjustment.
• Weather assistance can contribute a temporary adjustment without replacing the permanent baseline.
• Cold weather never reduces the hydration baseline.
• Weather adjustments remain bounded.
• Clinician-directed targets and fluid restrictions remain authoritative.
• Personalized recommendations require explicit user review and confirmation.
• Hydrion never automatically logs hydration because of a recommendation.
• Hydrion never automatically joins a challenge because of a recommendation.

Wake and sleep-aware hydration pacing

Hydrion can now use an optional wake and sleep schedule to provide more meaningful hydration pacing during the user's waking period.

• Added wake and sleep schedule support to Body Metrics.
• Added a dedicated hydration pacing engine.
• Hydrion can distinguish whether hydration progress is ahead of pace, on pace, behind pace, outside the waking window, or already complete.
• Overnight schedules and shift-work schedules are supported.
• Pacing works across midnight instead of assuming that wake time must occur before sleep time.
• Missing or invalid schedules safely fall back without interrupting hydration tracking.
• Wake and sleep information affects pacing only.
• Wake and sleep information does not automatically increase or decrease the daily hydration goal.
• Hydrion does not aggressively recommend catch-up drinking.
• Existing user-created reminders remain independent from pacing.
• Raw wake and sleep schedules are not exposed through home-screen widgets.

Inclusive profile experience

• Added a dedicated Pride visual experience for intersex profiles.
• Introduced explicit male, female, intersex, and neutral artwork routing.
• Preserved challenge-specific artwork where it communicates the activity better.
• Improved Pride and neutral artwork across Home, Progress, Profile, onboarding, challenges, and empty states.
• Removed assumptions that profile artwork should default to male.
• Hydration goals remain independent from visual presentation and gendered artwork.
• Profile hydration status and weather-assistance states now use localized presentation.

Local hydration reminders

• Reminder cards expand dynamically and no longer overlap.
• Improved reminder creation, editing, deletion, restart recovery, and reconciliation.
• Improved duplicate-reminder protection.
• Added orphaned-notification cleanup.
• Challenge timers and reminders use stable notification identities.

• Added the Hydrion Daily Progress WidgetKit experience.
• Added small and medium widget families.
• Added shared App Group communication between Hydrion and WidgetKit.
• Added privacy-scoped widget snapshots.
• Body measurements, reproductive state, clinician information, location, and raw wake/sleep schedules are not exposed to widgets.
• Added empty and stale-state handling.
• Added widget accessibility support.
• Added deep linking back into Hydrion.
• Added automated validation that the WidgetKit extension is embedded in the iOS application.
• Added bundle identifier, version, build-number, extension metadata, and App Group validation.
• Added iOS simulator compilation to continuous integration.
• Added unsigned iOS release compilation and traceable artifact packaging to continuous integration.

Android widgets

• Continued support for Hydrion's Android home-screen widgets.
• Widget data comes from Hydrion's canonical hydration state.
• Daily progress and quick-log experiences share the same hydration source of truth as the application.
• Widget deep links are restricted to supported Hydrion routes.
• Widget snapshots exclude private body, reproductive, clinician, eligibility, and location information.
• Added stronger automated widget configuration and privacy tests.

Weather-aware hydration

• Hydrion can use local weather to offer a temporary hydration suggestion.
• Weather suggestions use temperature, apparent temperature, humidity, and available forecast information.
• The permanent hydration baseline remains separate from the temporary weather adjustment.
• Users can accept a suggestion or keep their existing goal.
• Permission denial and unavailable weather are no longer represented as a false zero adjustment.
• Revoking location permission clears invalid cached weather state and triggers reevaluation.
• Weather failures safely fall back without changing the user's goal.
• Weather assistance remains optional.
• Location access is requested only after user action.

Temperature Roulette

• Temperature Roulette can use current weather context to recommend cool, room-temperature, or comfortably warm drinks.
• The interface explains whether the assignment came from weather or the standard challenge rotation.
• Added deterministic handling for hot, cold, matching, unavailable, disabled, and stale weather conditions.
• Challenge hydration remains synchronized with the main Hydrion hydration history.

Hydration challenges

Hydrion includes a local-first challenge system designed to make hydration more deliberate without fabricating progress.

• Expanded and hardened the Hydrion challenge catalogue.
• Added explicit eligibility policies.

Pomodoro Sip stabilization

• Rebuilt Pomodoro Sip around timestamp-authoritative session state.
• Countdown and progress meter now use the same source of truth.
• Improved start, pause, resume, restart, stop, completion, background restoration, and app-restart behaviour.
• Session completion no longer automatically claims that the user drank water.
• Confirmed sips and measured drinks use canonical hydration logging.
• Added duplicate protection for rapid confirmation taps.
• Added authentic event timestamps.
• Fixed midnight-sensitive test logic so legitimate hydration recorded between 00:00 and 00:59 is treated correctly.

• Kept profile editing focused on safe editable fields such as nickname, avatar, daily goal, units, and settings.

Hydration Logging

• Added core manual hydration logging.
• Daily progress updates after water intake is logged.
• Hydration totals, percentage progress, and goal state now use the same hydration data source.
• Challenge hydration actions now count as normal hydration logs.

Dashboard and Progress

• Improved the daily hydration progress display.
• Fixed mismatch between progress visuals and hydration values.
