Kural Heart 1.0.7

Kural Heart 1.0.7

• Every chapter now asks its own three questions, for Mind, Speech and Action, in English and Tamil.
• For daily life: a short note under every couplet on living it today. It can go on your share images too.
• Drive sync is surer: a page you delete stays deleted, and editing a synced page no longer leaves a second copy.
• Backup asks first whether you've backed up before, and leads you to Google Drive, a backup file, or a new passphrase.
• Change your passphrase on the Backup page; your backups are locked again with the new one straight away.
• Restoring from Google Drive is much faster, and Backup sits right under your profile in Settings.
• When writing, photos, voice notes, date, time, weather, place and tags are all right under the page.
• The daily reminder now pops up on screen, and stays quiet on a day you've already written. On this day finds any earlier year.
• Tamil text no longer gets cut off, and many Tamil words and phrases read better. The map pinches to zoom.
