Changelog

Release notes and product updates for Ritual.

June 2026

Desktop activity, iPhone Time, location, canonical metrics

New

  • iPhone Time — Ingest Apple Biome App.InFocus data and project it into daily iPhone Time metrics. Includes integration onboarding.
  • Location context — Optional location pings enrich habit logs and activity events, with bounded backfill for late signals.
  • Canonical read models — Overview, Metrics, Logs, and Calendar read from backend-owned models, so totals match across views.
  • Native desktop updater — Desktop updates run through the Tauri updater with notarized macOS artifacts.

Fixes

  • Computer Time now has a local fallback path and watcher crash protection.
  • Corrected Whoop sleep metric facts.
  • Overview stats hold across empty refetches instead of resetting to zero.
