PearList v1.0.5 is out!
Shared household lists over peer-to-peer. No account, no server.
What's new:
• Reminders: set a time on any item and your phone nudges you, even if PearList is closed.
• Repeating chores: daily, weekly or monthly. Tick one off and it comes back.
• An optional daily nudge about lists with things left on.
• Picking a time is a tap now, not a spin: "In an hour", "Tomorrow morning", or exact.
• PearList could open to a black screen on some Android 12+
• Reminders could arrive silently, or ring on the wrong phone.

PearCal v1.0.37 is out!
A peer-to-peer group calendar
## New Features
-Reset app data. You can now clear PearCal from inside the app, under Profile then Settings. There are two options: clear your calendar and groups but stay signed in as yourself, or start over completely as a brand new user. Previously the only way to do this was to delete the app and reinstall it, which on iPhone meant losing everything with no way back.
-Turn the relay off on desktop. Mac, Windows and Linux now have the same privacy switch the phone app already had, so you can stop PearCal routing
through the shared relay if you would rather it did not.
-See more in the widget. The home screen widget now shows more of your upcoming events instead of stopping at five, and fits as many as the widget size allows.
-Know why a join failed. If joining a group does not work, the app now tells you what went wrong instead of quietly doing nothing.
## Privacy
-Your recovery phrase is no longer stored in iCloud or Google. Older versions quietly saved it to Apple's or Google's cloud, with no way to see or
switch that off. It now stays on your device only, and this update automatically deletes any copy that was already uploaded.
## Improvements
-Clearer blind peer pairing. Pairing now shows progress on both the app and the seeder dashboard, with a countdown, and gets out of your way once it
succeeds.
-Accurate blind peer details. The blind peer list showed how many groups it was seeding at the moment you paired it, which could be badly out of date. It now shows the real number.
## Bug Fixes
-Moving an event to another date made it disappear. The event vanished from your calendar until you restarted the app, and on a paired second device it could be lost for good. Fixed on phone and desktop.
-Multi-day events dropped out of the widget. An event spanning several days showed on its first day and then disappeared, even while it was still
running.
-Groups could lose the key that keeps them private, which left you stuck behind a "can't sync" message. Existing affected groups repair themselves, and the desktop app can now repair them too.
-Re-sharing an event did not bring it back for anyone else in the group.
-Invite links were unreliable. Sometimes tapping one did not open the join screen at all, and older links could leave the app stuck on a blank screen until you force-closed it.
## PearCal Seeder
-Visible on StartOS 0.4. Adding peerloomllc.com as a custom marketplace on a StartOS 0.4 server showed only PearCircle Seeder. PearCal Seeder now
appears there and installs correctly. Servers on 0.3.5 were never affected.

PearCircle v1.1.0 is out!
A peer-to-peer location-sharing app
## What's New in 1.1.0
### Improvements
- You can now see which computers are really protecting your circle. The Seeders screen used to list every computer you had ever approved, whether or not it was actually doing anything. It now separates the ones genuinely holding your circle from the ones that have never checked in, and shows when each was last heard from. A switched-off computer no longer looks like a working one.
- Linking a computer to your circles shows its progress. Pairing used to sit silently and look like it had frozen. Now each step is reported as it happens, so you can tell it is working.
- Start9 owners can install the seeder from the browser again. Newer Start9 systems refused the older package format. The seeder now ships in a format they accept, so you can add it by drag and drop instead of using the command line.
### Bug Fixes
- The seeder's details page on Start9 was blank. It now shows the information it was meant to.
- App store listings showed the wrong "what's new" text. Every update was described as a first release. Each version's real notes now appear.
### Security
- Your location is always encrypted before it leaves your phone. A timing problem when you first joined a circle could leave one early position
unprotected. That was fixed in 1.0.25, so if you are updating from an older version you are getting that fix here too.

PearList v1.0.4 is out!
Shared household lists over peer-to-peer. No account, no server.
What's new:
New
• Tidy finished aisles: tick off an aisle's last item and it folds away. Off by default, in Settings.
Improvements
• Better aisle sorting: 346 more brand names, plus fixes for items landing in the wrong aisle.
• A lighter app: less to download and less space used on your phone.
Removed
• Local AI. It found the right aisle under half the time and cost a 0.8 GB download. Sorting is faster and more accurate…
Bug Fixes
• Settings now shows the version of PearList you are actually running. It had said 0.0.1 since the very first release.

PearList v1.0.6 is out!
Shared household lists over peer-to-peer. No account, no server.
## What's new:
- Use PearList on more than one phone. Link a second phone from Settings and it becomes *you*, not a new person: your spaces, your name and anything assigned to you show up on both.
- Your spaces follow you. Join a space on one phone and your other phone picks it up on its own.
- One name, everywhere. Set your name once and it stays yours on every phone you have, instead of changing depending on which one you last used.
- Save a copy of a space to a file, and open it back later. Handy before wiping a phone or handing one on.
- Remove a phone you no longer have. Take it off your account and it stops seeing your lists.
### Improvements
- Removing someone from a space now removes every phone they have, not just the one you tapped.
- People show up once in the member list, however many phones they use, and assigning an item reaches all of them.
- Give each of your phones a name, so the list of your devices is readable.
- Settings sections fold away, so the screen is shorter and easier to scan.
- If a pairing was left half-finished, you get a clear "Start over" instead of a stuck screen.
- A smaller download and a faster start.
### Security
- Your recovery phrase now lives in your phone's own secure keystore, and is kept out of Android's cloud backup.
- A phone you remove loses its key to the space, so it stops reading new changes rather than just disappearing from the list.
### Bug Fixes
- PearList could open to a black screen and stay there. It now recovers by itself.
- A background error could close the app. It no longer does.
- Your list of spaces now refreshes straight after linking or removing a phone.
- The messages around removing a person or a phone say what actually happens, and no longer promise more than they do or contradict the result.
- If you are the owner and using your second phone, you can now manage the space from it too.
- An empty space now explains why it looks empty, and you can leave one that will not sync.

PearPetal v1.0.3 is out!
A private, peer-to-peer menstrual & fertility cycle tracker. No account, no server, no cloud.
What's new:
This release is about staying connected. PearPetal can now reach your other
devices, and your partner's, even on mobile networks that block two phones
from talking to each other directly.
##New
- Connect anywhere. Some mobile networks will not let two phones connect
straight to each other, which could leave pairing or syncing hanging
forever with no explanation. PearPetal can now pass the connection
through a PeerLoom helper server, but only after a direct connection has
already failed. Your cycle data stays scrambled the whole way and the
helper cannot read any of it. It can only see that two devices are
talking and how much data passes between them. This is on by default,
and you can switch it off under Settings, Connect anywhere, which keeps
you strictly device to device.
- Connection details. Under Connect anywhere you can now see how your
phone is really connecting: how many connections it made directly and
whether the helper was ever needed.
##Improved
- A tidier Settings screen. Settings used to be several screens of
scrolling with no clear order, and some things sat permanently open
while more important ones were hidden. Everything is now grouped under
Your cycle, How it looks, Alerts and connection, then Your data, and
each group opens when you tap it. Your name and photo stay at the top.
##Fixed
- On smaller phones, the Dial and Month switcher no longer covers the
flower button and the information button at the top of the cycle card.

# PearTune 1.0.0
Your music collection, playable anywhere — without exposing your server to the internet.
PearTune plays music straight off a computer you own: an Umbrel, a NAS, an old desktop.
Your phone reaches it directly over an encrypted connection. No port forwarding, no VPN,
no dynamic DNS, no account, and no copy of your files on anyone else's server.
And that machine doesn't have to be yours. If a friend or family member lets you into
theirs, their library just appears in your app — no login handed out, nothing copied.
## Getting started
1. Install the host on the machine with your music (macOS, Windows, Linux, Umbrel or Docker).
2. Open the dashboard and point it at your music.
3. Scan the QR code with the app on your phone. That's the setup.
## What you can do
Play your library from anywhere. Browse by artist, album, genre or track with artwork,
search everything, and play with gapless playback, shuffle, repeat and a sleep timer. Audio
keeps going in the background and on the lock screen.
Let people in, and cut them off. Give access per person and per device — your phone,
your tablet, a friend. Revoke any one of them without disturbing the others, and it takes
effect immediately, even mid-song. Guest passes expire on their own after a time you set,
with a countdown shown to the guest, so lending your library for a weekend doesn't depend
on you remembering.
Take music with you. Pin an album to keep it on your phone for a flight or a tunnel.
Pick up where you left off. Favourites and resume points follow you between your own
devices — a track paused on one is where you left it on another. Starting playback on a
second device pauses the first rather than playing twice.
Playlists, both the ones you make on your phone and the read-only ones your server
already has.
Ask for music you can't find. Anyone you've let in can request something, and the
owner works through the queue in the app.
More than one library at once. If you're let into several, they blend into one.
Manage it from your phone. An owner can see every device, pair a new one and revoke
any of them without opening the dashboard.
## Your music, wherever it already lives
Point the host at an existing Navidrome (or any Subsonic-compatible) server, an
existing Jellyfin server, or just a plain folder of music files — PearTune reads
the tags itself, so a folder is a real library with artists, albums, years and cover art,
not a list of filenames.
## Staying connected
Most of the time your phone talks straight to your host. Some mobile carriers and locked-down
wifi refuse a direct connection, and PearTune then falls back to a relay run by PeerLoom. The
relay only passes along traffic that's already encrypted — it can see that your device is
talking to your host and how much data moves, never what's in it, and it keeps no copy. It's
on by default and you can turn it off in Settings → Connection.
## Keeping it running
On Linux and Windows, the host installs as a proper background service: your library
keeps serving after you log out, and starts again by itself when the machine reboots. On
macOS it runs while you're signed in.
PearTune also tells you when a new version is out, and can update itself with one click.
The macOS app is signed and notarized by Apple, so it opens normally.
Windows will show a warning. The Windows installer isn't signed with a certificate yet,
so SmartScreen says "unknown publisher" — choose More info → Run anyway. It also asks for
administrator rights, because it sets PearTune up as a background service.

PearList v1.0.3 is out!
Shared household lists over peer-to-peer. No account, no server.
### Saved lists
Shopping for the same things every week? Save a list and start a fresh copy of it whenever you like, instead of typing it out again.
Open a list, tap its options and choose "Save as template". After that, "Start from a saved list" appears above where you add lists. The new list arrives
with everything unticked and each item already in the right aisle.
Saved lists stay on your own phone, so nothing about them reaches anyone else in your household until you start one.
### Connect Anywhere
Your phones normally talk straight to each other, but some mobile networks block that, and until now a list you changed while out could sit unsynced until
you got home.
PearList can now fall back to a PeerLoom relay that passes the scrambled data along, so your lists keep syncing wherever you are. The relay cannot read
your lists. It only sees that two devices are talking and how much data went by, and it keeps nothing.
It is on by default, and there is a switch in Settings if you would rather stay strictly phone to phone. Underneath it, a line tells you whether it has
actually been needed.
### A much smaller download
The app is roughly half the size it was. Same features, same on-device AI, far less to download and less space used on your phone.

PearCal v1.0.38 is out!
A peer-to-peer group calendar
What's new:
Bug Fixes
- Canadian and UK holidays landed on the wrong dates. When a holiday fell on
a weekend, it was being moved to the Friday before instead of forward to the
next free weekday. The most visible symptom: Boxing Day showing on Christmas
Day. Canadian and UK holidays now follow their own rules rather than the US
one, so each weekend holiday moves forward to the next weekday nobody else has
taken.
- Two related date problems came out of the same fix. New Year's Day could
render as an invalid date in some years, and two holidays could occasionally
claim the same day. Both are fixed, and the dates were checked against the
official published lists across 2021 to 2032.
- Calendars that already had the wrong dates now fix themselves. Previously
you had to switch a holiday calendar off and back on to pick up the
corrections. PearCal now tidies these up on its own when you open the app.
Reminders you set on a holiday move with it, and any holiday you deleted on
purpose stays deleted.

PearGuard v1.0.22 is out!
A peer-to-peer parental control app
What's new:
### ✨ Improvements
- staying connected away from home: if your child is on mobile data or a network that blocks direct connections, PearGuard now routes through a helper so
alerts still arrive and rule changes still reach them. It always tries the direct connection first and only falls back when it has to, and nothing
readable passes through the helper.
- a new Connection section in Settings shows whether the helper is being used and lets you turn the fallback off for your own device if you prefer.
- Settings is easier to find your way around: the page is now grouped under Your profile, What your children see, This device and Data, instead of one
long list of equal-looking sections.
### 🐛 Bug Fixes
- changes in Settings now save the moment you make them, with a confirmation right next to what you changed. Previously the time request and warning
options only saved if you scrolled to the bottom and tapped Save Settings, so a change you made and walked away from was quietly lost.

PearPetal v1.0.4 is out!
A private, peer-to-peer menstrual & fertility cycle tracker. No account, no server, no cloud.
New
- Bring your history from another app. If you have been tracking somewhere else, you can now import your basal temperatures and period days from a file you export from that app. PearPetal reads Apple Health exports and the spreadsheet exports from apps like Samsung Health, Fitbit and Oura. The file is read on your phone and goes nowhere else. Anything you typed yourself is left alone, an import only fills in days you left blank.
- Import straight from the Health app (iPhone only). On iPhone you can pull your basal body temperature and period days directly out of Apple Health, with no file to export first. PearPetal asks only for permission to read. It has no permission to write anything back into Health.
- A daily flower note. Switch it on and PearPetal sends one short line a day, written in the voice of the garden and matched to where you are in your cycle and to the flower you picked. It is off unless you turn it on, and Discreet mode softens it like every other reminder.
Privacy
- Your cycle log is no longer part of your phone's automatic cloud backup. iCloud Backup and Google's backup used to be able to copy it. They no longer can, so your logged days, flow, symptoms, notes and temperatures stay on your own devices. Your settings still back up as before.
- Settings now says so plainly. Under Backup & restore, PearPetal explains that the phone's own backup does not include your cycle log, and points you at the app's own password-protected backup, which is how to keep a copy you can restore from.
Fixed
- Setting up no longer overfills your log. Telling PearPetal that your last period started a while back used to mark every single day since then as a bleeding day. It now fills in a normal period length instead.
- The daily note and the dial no longer disagree. If you logged a flow for today, the note speaks from that rather than from the prediction.

PearCal v1.0.36 is out!
A peer-to-peer group calendar
## What's Changed
## New Features
**Connects on networks that used to block it.** Some mobile networks stop phones from reaching each other directly, and on those networks PearCal simply never connected. Now, after a direct connection has already failed, your devices fall back to a relay run by PeerLoom - a machine that passes the scrambled data along without being able to read any of it.
You're in control of this. Profile -> Advanced -> Connection has a switch, "Use a relay when direct fails", on by default. Turn it off and your devices only ever talk to each other directly, at the cost of not connecting at all on a network that blocks them.
To be plain about what the relay sees: nothing readable. Your calendar is encrypted the whole way and the relay holds no key. It can tell that two devices are talking and roughly how much, which is true of any relay, and we'd rather say so than pretend otherwise. It stores nothing and it's only ever used as a last resort.
## Bug Fixes
**Moving an event between groups no longer makes it disappear.** If you moved an event from one group to another, it vanished from the calendar of the phone you made the change on. Nothing was ever actually lost, and it came back when you reopened the app, but it looked like your event was gone. Fixed.
**One notification per change, not three.** A single new event could burst of changes into one summary wasn't working while the app was in the background, which is exactly when you'd get a flood of them. A busy sync now arrives as a single "Calendar updated" line that updates in place.
**Rejoining a group that stopped syncing.** In rare cases a device could lose the key to a shared group. It would quietly stop receiving events, and any invite it created would be broken for whoever accepted it. PearCal now spots this, tells you, and fixes itself when someone sends you a fresh invite link.
## For anyone running a blind seeder
**The Start9 Properties page works.** It was blank before; it now shows your seeder's key and live stats.
**Update notes are accurate.** Every update used to show the original "first release" text no matter which version you were installing.
**Faster startup reporting.** Seeder stats appear within seconds of starting rather than after a minute and a half.

What's new:
• Connects on networks that used to block it. Some mobile networks stop two phones from reaching each other directly, and until now your circle simply would not sync on them. PearCircle can now pass the connection through a PeerLoom relay when a direct connection fails. The relay only carries scrambled data it has no way to read, and it keeps no copy of anything.
• A switch to turn that relay off. Settings, then Staying in sync, then Connection helper. Leave it on for the best chance of staying connected, or turn it off to keep everything strictly phone to phone.
• Seeder details on Start9. If you run the seeder on a Start9 home server, its Properties page now shows the seeder's public key, its nickname, which circles it is keeping alive and how much it has stored, plus a Support Development link.

I also have about that many, and it prompts me to choose one if I don't select "Always" for the top one. See screenshot. Does it do something different for you that causes more friction? Happy to look into it to see if there's an easier way, and I'm open to suggestions.
After telling Android to use my top pick (in this case Alby Go) it's a pretty seamless experience, imo
