What’s new in Featherlist

Mobile now has a fixed bottom nav for the main workspaces, making Routines, Tasks, Notes, Projects, and Settings easier to reach. Check-off controls are easier to tap without making dense lists feel oversized, task date shortcuts are clearer, and Notes avoids a mobile startup mismatch when opening the list.

Web clips can now include a short server-generated summary when you want one, so saved pages land with useful context instead of just raw content. Task dates are quicker to set with visible shortcuts, note creation stays calmer on mobile, and project dashboards now show complete mobile rows with sticky section headers.

Notes got a full visual overhaul. Notes are now grouped by Pinned, Today, Yesterday, and Earlier in the sidebar. Entries show as a clean journal feed — click any entry to edit in place with a formatting bar (bold, italic, links, quotes, lists) that stays close to the keyboard on mobile. The add-entry button sticks to the bottom so it's always reachable.

When you process an inbox item, Featherlist now checks if it matches a note you already have and offers to append it there. The decision engine looks at your existing notes and picks the most useful action for each item — so your inbox results land where they actually belong.

URLs you've added to tasks or routines now show a card preview on hover — title, description, and favicon — so you can see where a link goes before opening it.

Deleting a project now shows a transfer dialog: move all its open tasks and notes to another project, or leave them unassigned. Nothing gets lost silently.

When saving a clip as a task you can now set a due date directly from the extension. Note search now matches partial words and titles starting with your query, not just exact strings — so finding the right note to clip into is faster.

Direct note links now open inside the Notes workspace instead of a separate full page. Note entry timestamps now use your local time, and the Projects dashboard respects your local day late at night so "today" stays accurate.

If you created a routine after around 10pm local time it would sometimes not show up on the correct day in Today. Fixed — routines now use your local timezone consistently.

You can now link any task, note, or routine to other items. Related items appear as a collapsible section in the detail panel — click to open them in place, toggle done without leaving, or detach the link. Works from tasks, notes, and the project view.

Tasks can now have a due date. Tasks with a future date stay hidden until that day arrives. In Projects you can toggle between all open tasks and only the ones due today. In Today, a Now/All pill does the same for the current day's view.

You can now check service health and any active incidents at featherlist.xyz/status. The page updates automatically every 30 seconds.

You can now add AI-suggested routines one at a time instead of all at once — useful when you want to pick and choose. The note merge picker is now a searchable list instead of a dropdown, so finding the right destination note is faster when you have many.

Inside Today, you can now open Add item, describe your day in plain language, and get AI-generated routine suggestions you can edit before creating. It is a lighter way to get started when you know the shape of your day but do not want to set everything up manually.

Routine toggles now stay in their confirmed state more reliably, even during fast refreshes and background revalidation. The goal: fewer moments where a completed action appears to bounce back.

The browser clipper can now suggest recent notes and append a new clip to one you already have, instead of always creating a fresh note. Better for ongoing research and collecting context over time.

User-written content is now handled with stronger privacy protections at rest, and the browser clipper approval flow is more reliable when you open a pairing link from another device or session.

Featherlist now has a dedicated Philosophy page explaining the execution-first approach, and signed-in users can create revocable personal API tokens from Settings with scoped access for integrations and agents.

We refreshed the public landing with real product screenshots, added a dedicated Product page, and improved mobile magic-link authentication so opening Featherlist from email works more smoothly on phones.

Internal improvements to how email-triggered actions are processed, making them more robust and less prone to accidental execution. Added automated security regression checks.

You can now create notes directly from the Notes page — no need to go through Inbox first. We also improved internal observability of item activity for analytics, and fixed layout issues across developer dashboards on mobile.

If you've created routines but haven't checked in for a few days, Featherlist will now send a gentle nudge. Three tiers: 3-day, 7-day, and 14-day gaps. Each with a different tone. Always one-click unsubscribable.

Removed a service worker library that was adding latency without benefit. Cold starts on the PWA are now noticeably faster, and the blank-screen flash on launch is gone.

The focus panel on routines now includes a persistent notes field — auto-saves on blur, cancels on Escape, and shows a subtle confirmation flash when saved.

The /today daily routine view is now available to all signed-in users — no more beta gate. This is the main interface for Featherlist: your routines, today, in one glance.

New users see a one-question survey on first login ("How did you hear about us?"). The daily email cron now handles partial failures more gracefully. Every outgoing email is now logged for internal auditing.

New users who haven't created a routine yet receive a 6-email sequence over 30 days. Each email is short, focused on one insight, and includes one-click habit chips to get started instantly.
