Changelog

This version is in public beta and not on the App Store yet. Join the beta on TestFlight to try it and help calibrate the battery.

• Battery: an estimate of the energy you have left today, built on your own HRV baseline. Only sleep charges it, naps and daytime sleep after a night shift included.
• Free: your charge after each sleep, and what went into it: how long you slept and your HRV that night.
• Vela Pro, a one-time purchase with no subscription: the live battery, the day's curve, history, and what drained you most today.
• Three new complications: last night's charge for everyone, plus the live battery and today's hourly bars with Pro.

• Fixed a bug where updating from an older version could temporarily leave the app without your data until it finished resyncing.

• New ring-style complication showing your stress score on your watch face.
• Three new languages — Czech, Greek and Japanese. Vela now speaks 12.
• Fixed repeated notifications when Vela catches up on older readings.
• Notifications can be turned off inside the app even when the system permission is on.
• The month view in History now refreshes when you reopen the app.

• Turn notifications on or off inside the app when the system permission is already granted.

• Dates now follow your language.
• Vela falls back to English on devices set to an unsupported language.

• Removed a weekly-analysis notification that fired right after opening the app.
• The baseline-building ring now appears on fresh installs.

• Seven more languages: Catalan, Basque, Galician, French, German, Italian and Portuguese.
• Full VoiceOver support across every screen.
• Dynamic Type, Reduce Transparency, Differentiate Without Color and the Large Content Viewer.

• Weekly Insights: Vela spots patterns in your stress and explains them in plain words.
• Redesigned History with day, week and month drill-down.
• New HRV complication with a bar chart for your watch face.

• First release. On-device stress score from HRV on Apple Watch, your own baseline, trends and clear range explanations — no account, no servers, no subscription.
