BLOCKY
1.0.5
1.0.5DATE12 OCT 2026CHANGES15LIVE
Fewer taps for the things you do all day, and updates that show up on their own with what's new before you install.
NEW 06
Jump to the next HELP
Tap the HELP or WORKING count at the top of the list to jump to the next item that needs it. Tap again for the one after.
SHOW: ALL, WORKING, HELP
Filter the list to what is in progress or what needs help. It works with no signal.
RENAME LIST
The list owner can rename a list from LISTS or the PEOPLE sheet.
Updates show up on their own
Blocky checks for a new version when you open it, when you come back to it, and every few minutes while it's open. An UPDATE button appears next to BLOCKY, and SETTINGS gets a dot.
What's new, before you update
Tap UPDATE to see every change since your version, newest first. Then DOWNLOAD and INSTALL.
The Mac app updates itself
The Mac app downloads, checks and installs updates, then reopens. Install 1.0.5 once from the DMG; every update after that comes from inside the app.
IMPROVED 05
Status in two taps
Tap an item's status to open a strip under it: WORKING, DONE, HELP, CLEAR, then NOTE, EDIT, MOVE, REMOVE and MORE. One press sets it and the strip closes. On the Fold and the Mac the ACTIVITY pane stays open.
NEW starts where you are
NEW opens on ITEM with the block on screen already picked and the keyboard up.
Invite from the PEOPLE pane
On the Fold inner screen and the Mac, INVITE PEOPLE and CODE QR sit at the top of the PEOPLE pane.
Join in one step
An invite link now asks for your name and joins with one tap. The keyboard opens on the first tap in every sheet.
Update notice when Blocky is closed
With Blocky closed, Android checks about once an hour and shows an UPDATE notification once per version.
FIXED 02
NEW works with no signal
Items added from NEW are saved on the phone and sync when you are back. Cancel on the name sheet no longer clears your name.
Clearer update and join errors
A failed download says whether it was the signal or the server. Too many wrong codes now says to wait 10 minutes, which is the real lockout.
PRIVACY 02
Only the owner archives a list
Archiving stops the join code for everyone, so only the list owner can archive or restore a list now. Members can still leave.
Every update is checked first
Updates install only when the download matches its fingerprint and Blocky's signature. If a Mac install fails, the old version comes back. Update checks send only the app name and version.
