// Release Notes
A new release rhythm: batched updates, one post each
TickerScribe ships almost every day — but we won't spam you with an announcement for each change. We're batching releases into a single post that covers everything in it: what changed, why it helps, and how to use it.

Product & engineering
We ship almost every day. Most days something lands — a fix, a small refinement, now and then a whole new feature. Firing off an announcement for each one would bury you in notifications. So we're not going to.
Instead, we're batching. A run of daily releases gets collected into a single release note — published right here as a post — that walks through every change in it: what it is, why it helps, and how to put it to use.

We ship every day
Development here doesn't move in big quarterly drops; it moves in small, constant increments. We release continuously — often more than once a day — because shipping a fix the day it's ready beats holding it back for some tidy launch window.
The catch is noise. A notification for every one of those changes would turn a genuinely good thing — steady, daily progress — into a distraction you'd learn to tune out. So we've split the two: how often we ship and how often we interrupt you are no longer the same thing.

One post per release
Every so often we draw a line under a batch of daily releases and write it up as one release note. Each change earns its own section — not a one-line entry, but enough to actually act on it:
- What changed — the feature or fix, in plain terms.
- Why it helps — the problem it solves, and when it matters to you.
- How to use it — where to find it and the steps to get going.
Here's the shape of it — a few changes from a recent batch, each with somewhere to go deeper:
Market Today
A forward-looking read on the day the moment you log in — sentiment, volatility and direction, the news touching your tickers, and where every open position stands right now.
Explore Market Today →Unrealized P&L on open stocks
Open stock positions now carry a live unrealized P&L, priced off market quotes — so you can see where a position stands without doing the math yourself.
See the stock journal →Ticker suggestions & company names
The ticker box suggests symbols as you type and shows company names across the app — fewer typos, faster logging.

Why batch it
Two reasons. Your attention is worth protecting — a daily drip of announcements trains people to ignore them, and then the one that actually matters gets ignored too. And changes simply make more sense together: a fix, a refinement, and a new view often add up to a single story that's easier to tell — and to read — in one place.
Ship every day. Announce deliberately.
So that's the plan: keep shipping daily, post a proper release note you can read in one sitting, and put the moment-to-moment on X. Follow along here for each release — and @tickerscribe for everything in between.
