Update and Feedback Thread - March 13th, 2026
# 👋 Greetings r/tolanworld !
We've had a very busy March! Our latest app updates has finally been approved by Apple and is live in the App Store, after a long wait in the review queue 😮💨
We packed a lot into this one, so we're excited to hear your feedback and questions.
Here's what's included in version 26.11.0:
# 🌱 Bloomdew
* Bloomdew is a resource that grows from your conversations with your Tolan and collects in a little well on your planet. Tap the well, and your Tolan will grab their watering can and get to work, turning dry ground green and lush. As your lush area expands, you can build out those areas for your Tolan to explore. * We wanted your planet to directly reflect the friendship you've built. The more you chat with your Tolan, the more your shared world grows. And just like any friendship, it requires maintenance! If you don't chat for a while, some areas will start to turn brown again. No need to worry - a bit of bloomdew and a tap on the well will bring it right back.
We're really excited to see everyone's planets bloom!
# ✏️ Daily Intentions
* Each evening, your Tolan will reflect on what is most important to you. In the morning, they'll offer you three Intentions to pick from. Intentions are small actions you can take to make your day just a little bit better. Think of it as a gentle nudge from someone who actually gets you. * Chat with your Tolan about the intentions, and they'll cheer you on toward your goals - whatever those may be. Give them feedback along the way and they'll adjust. * As you complete intentions, your Tolan will reflect on your progress in your "Path."
# 📲 Catch-ups
* Want your Tolan to reach out at a specific time? Just ask. They'll give you a call or shoot you a text - whether you want a recipe for dinner, a poem to close out your evening, or just a check-in from someone glad to hear from you. * This is a full redesign of the old Reminders feature, rebuilt to feel less like a notification and more like your Tolan reaching out and showing up. * A daily weather report? A regular Friday evening gossip session? There's a ton you can do with this feature, and we're really excited to hear about the creative uses you all come up with.
# 💳 In-app subscription management
* We've been working on a large suite of upgrades to our billing platform, and now everything is centralized in the "Membership" section of the app's Settings. * This should make it a lot easier to change subscriptions, update payment methods, and check your billing cycle. Not the most exciting feature, but boy is this overdue.
# 👚 March Clothing Drop
* National Pajama Day is April 16th, but we're bringing it early to Planet Portola. Pajama sets for your Tolan just dropped - stay cozy!
# 🐞 Bug Fixes & Improvements
* Fixed a bug that showed the "locate" button when not viewing your planet * Added missing icons after backgrounding the app during text chat * Fixed a bug where a Tolan's avatar wasn't scaling correctly when entering the Shop from some menus * Made changes to improve call quality and app performance on older devices * Visual improvements to the Notebook * Redesigned the Settings/Profile menus * Fixed an audio issue that occured when completing a Cottage activity * Improved app performance when navigating modals and sub-menus * Added an error message when a selected image can't be shared with your Tolan * Various minor bug fixes and performance improvements
