PearPetal

Releases

• Sep 17, 2026 1.0.7
  ## What's Changed New - Remove a day you logged by mistake. Open the day and tap "Remove this day". It asks first, and you can log that day again later if you need to. - Share your written notes with a partner who has the Full view. It is off until you switch it on for that partner. When you switch it on, your notes from the last three weeks appear for them too. When you switch it off, those notes disappear from their phone the next time it syncs with yours. - When your notes are shared, a small eye next to a day shows which notes your partner can read. Improved

  - Dates on your partner's screen and in your recent days now read like "Jul 23" instead of a string of numbers. - The notes box only says a note is shared when your partner can actually read it. Fixed - A day you remove now also disappears from your partner's screen. Before, it stayed there.

  ## What's Changed New - Lock PearPetal with Face ID, your fingerprint or your phone's passcode, so your cycle is not open to anyone who picks up your phone. It also hides your cycle in the app switcher, and asks again once you have been away for a minute. Off until you switch it on, in Settings. - See your cycle history: how long your cycles usually run, how much they vary, how long your periods last, and every cycle you have logged. Tap "Your cycles" on the main screen. - Correct or remove a period you logged on the wrong date, and add periods from before you started using PearPetal. Under "Your periods" in Settings. - Erase everything PearPetal holds on this phone, from Settings. It asks twice, and afterwards the app starts fresh as though you had just installed it. Improved

  - Backups now save your tracked conditions, birth control setting, pregnancy mode, your name and your photo, so moving to a new phone keeps all of it. Backups you made before this update do not include them, so it is worth saving a fresh one. Fixed - Your partner's cycle no longer stops updating, and the app no longer opens to a blank screen that restarting your phone could not clear. If your app is already stuck, this update fixes it, and it repairs itself the first time you open it near your partner's phone. - You can log a period at any time of day, wherever you are in the world. In some countries PearPetal used to refuse in the morning, saying the date was in the future.

  ## What's Changed Fixed - PearPetal no longer opens to a blank screen it could not recover from. It now starts without waiting on anyone else's phone, and says what went wrong instead of showing nothing. - On iPhone, PearPetal comes back on its own if the phone shuts part of it down to free memory.
• Jul 31, 2026 1.0.4
  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.

  ## What's Changed 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.
• Jul 22, 2026 1.0.2
  ## What's Changed Fixed - Coming back to a frozen screen. On some Android phones, leaving PearPetal in the background for a while and then returning could leave the screen sitting still. Nothing you logged was ever lost or at risk, but you had to close the app and open it again to get moving. Now PearPetal quietly refreshes itself when you come back. After a long time away it may take a second to settle, and then you are right where you left off.
• Jul 16, 2026 1.0.1
  The big one this release: PearPetal now works across more than one of your devices. Scan a QR code from your phone to link a tablet or a second phone, and your cycle log, your profile and your settings follow you there — still with no account, no server and no cloud. Everything syncs directly between your own devices, encrypted end to end. New - Link your devices with a QR code. Open Cycle settings → Your devices to generate a code, scan it from the other device, and you're paired. New devices can link right from the welcome screen. You can see everything you've linked, and remove a device whenever you like. - A recovery phrase. PearPetal can now show you a twelve-word phrase that restores your identity and lets you re-link your devices if you lose one. It doesn't restore your cycle log on its own — that's what an encrypted backup is for, so keep making those. - Your settings travel with you. Name, avatar, cycle lengths, goal, flower, conditions and birth control now match on every device you've linked, and update as soon as they sync. Improved

  - A calmer Cycle view. The whole view fits on one screen now. Logging a day opens in a sheet that slides up over the dial instead of taking you somewhere else, the dial hints at today, and moving between months cross-slides rather than jumping. - Support development, on iPhone too. The About section and the occasional thank-you nudge now appear on iOS the same way they always have on Android. PearPetal is free, and stays free — this just makes the tip jar reachable. Fixed - The About screen shows the right version. It was stuck reading 0.1.0 no matter what you had installed. Existing logs carry over automatically the first time you open this version. Nothing you've tracked leaves your device.
