What’s New Version 2.4.0
v2.4.0 — More flexibility, more reliability.
LONGER INTERVALS
You can now set your check-in interval up to 30 days. Two new options join the picker: 2 weeks and 30 days. Useful for solo travel, long expeditions, or
anyone whose routine doesn't fit a weekly cadence.
RELIABILITY FIXES (from real customer reports)
• Your streak now resets correctly the moment a missed check-in triggers an alert. Previously a quirk in our database update kept the streak counting past
missed alerts.
• Snoozing now sets your deadline cleanly to the snooze duration from now, regardless of how much time was left on the clock. Previously a snooze while
time remained could push the next deadline well past your interval.
• Notification emails now render correctly in Gmail and Apple Mail when those clients force light mode. Previously dark-theme styles could appear as faint
gray text on white.
• Improved email deliverability to iCloud and Gmail. Added SPF, DKIM, and DMARC authentication on the sending domain, plus one-click List-Unsubscribe and
stable Message-IDs. Fewer legitimate alerts will land in spam.
QUALITY OF LIFE
• A What's New page in Settings stays current - open it any time to see what changed.
Thank you to the people who wrote in with detailed reports. Every bug fix in this release came from a real customer message. Keep them coming.

v2.3.0 — More flexible, more secure.
SNOOZE WHEN LIFE GETS BUSY
You can now snooze your check-in deadline by 2 to 24 hours straight from the dashboard. Capped at 3 per day so it stays a safety net, not a workaround.
CARRY YOUR SAFETY CARD ANYWHERE
• Write your safety card URL to an NFC tag — tap a sticker and anyone can alert your emergency contacts.
• Refreshed in-app safety card with a license-plate ID (DMS-XXXX-XXXX) that's easy to read aloud.
• Long-press the card to save it to Photos or share it to any app.
STRONGER ACCOUNT SECURITY
• Two-factor login is now protected against repeated wrong-code attempts.
• Reset your password from inside the app — paste the code from your email, choose a new password, done.
• Dashboard banner reminds you to verify your email, with a one-tap resend.
CLEARER CONTACT MANAGEMENT
• Every emergency contact shows whether they've accepted, declined, or still have a pending consent email.
• Resend the consent email with a single tap if it got lost.
QUALITY OF LIFE
• Save to Photos no longer crashes when sharing your safety card.
• A new "What's New" page in Settings, in case you ever miss an update.
• App version is now read live from the bundle, so what you see in Settings is always what you're running.
Stay alive out there.
