v1.9.12 — Quick check-in + onboarding UI fixes
NilaMind v1.9.12
A bug-fix release addressing two UI issues in the Quick check-in and first-run onboarding.
Fixes
- Quick check-in: the "Done" button was pushed off-screen on the note step (so the check-in couldn't be completed), and tapping it didn't close the sheet. Both fixed — Done is now visible and saving returns you to Today.
- Onboarding "Next" button: was near-invisible in the light (Sunrise) theme — white text on a light-beige fill (1.41:1 contrast). Now a readable lavender fill (5.04:1, clears WCAG AA).
- Onboarding top bar: the "Need help now" crisis pill no longer collides with the phone's status bar (added safe-area-inset padding).
Install
- Download the APK below and install on Android 8+ (API 26+).
- Or use Obtainium — add

NilaMind v1.9.10
NilaMind v1.9.10 — localization, longitudinal wellbeing & family mode
On-device, privacy-first. Install/update via Obtainium (recommended) — see the ➕ link in the README — or download the APK below.
What's new since v1.9.9
Languages
- Hindi, Tamil & Telugu localization across the crisis (§9) surface, Tools, You, Settings, Dashboard, and quiet-mode/DND — India-first, all on-device.
Longitudinal & course-tracking
- WHO-5 wellbeing tracking over time (Phase 17).
- Episode-phase marker — a you-owned bipolar course tracker (Phase 18).
- Family / caregiver mode — consent-gated, on-device sharing (Phase 19).
Rhythm & proactive care
- 7-day anchor rhythm timeline with mood overlay; proactive wind-down offer when rhythm dips.
- Real Sleep Regularity Index (Phillips et al. 2017) alongside the existing duration-consistency signal.
- Seasonal mood-pattern insight; smarter notification timing learned from engagement; weekly review digest.
Companion voice
- Ash-calibrated exemplar corpus expanded to 138 gold exchanges; register-steer belt so the on-device model actually holds the companion voice.
Safety & privacy
- Auto-update / privacy UI in Settings.
- Crisis (§9) copy fully preserved and localized — safety is model-independent and always unconditional.
Signed with the same release key as prior versions (cert SHA-256 003f02bc…c37d), so Obtainium updates in place. Not clinically validated; not a medical device.
NilaMind v1.9.9
Catch-up release closing the gap since v1.9.2 — a large batch of work had accumulated on main without a published build. Highlights, grouped:
Safety (§9)
- Tamil/Telugu negation-first crisis-phrase coverage locked in, plus a native-review flag
- Hindi precision hardening + distortion negation-guards (adversarial review)
- Crisis takeover now fires only on genuine risk (was over-triggering); solution-forward overlay
- Removed the persistent CrisisPill from the app shell — crisis stays reachable, not constantly visible
- Region & crisis-lines selector; Tele-MANAS first-line + pesticide means-safety category
Companion voice
- Short, non-lecturing companion replies (persona + exemplar-RAG) instead of long explainers
- Fixed first-person mirroring / role-confusion in replies
- Per-turn steering for "why/how" questions so the model reflects instead of lecturing
- Anti-sycophancy: closed a paraphrase-evasion gap
Clinical research wave 2
- BA/PST implementation intentions + fidelity, GAD-worry and DBT-skills routing fixes
- ACT values-based-action micro-protocol, inhibitory-learning exposure prompts
- Alliance-voice validate-first sequencing, engagement-onboarding personalization
- EMA cadence copy + streak de-emphasis; Social Rhythm Metric (IPSRT) tracker
- Lethal-means counseling flow (Stanley-Brown step 6); assertion training module
Reports & exports
- Clinician-facing PDF report (behavioral insights, sleep analysis, assessment trajectory)
- Structured JSON clinical export; experimental FHIR R4 export
- Selectable 7/30/90-day report window + on-device usage section
UI
- NilaFace redesign (biophilic breathing, crisis differentiation, haptics)
- Manic-first state layer — elevation reaches the UI, not just copy
- Accessibility pass: tap targets, focus rings, text floor
Housekeeping
- README no longer hardcodes a stale version number
- Dead code removal (unused components, dead exports)
Default model is still the stock, un-fine-tuned Gemma-3-1B-Instruct (~806MB) — see docs/TRANSPARENCY.md for the full model card and safety architecture. All inference, crisis detection, and voice transcription run on-device; no account, no backend, no analytics.
