1.4.0
2016-06-28
mySleepButton® version 1.4 contains yet another CogSci Apps Invention that combines cognitive science and technology to improve your well being and productivity! We have added what might be the world's first configurable "body scan" mindfulness meditation pack meant to help you prepare for sleep.
With this pack, you can
1. set the direction of the body scan (top-down, bottom-up),
2. exclude certain regions of your body from the scan,
3. include a focused body scan, which zeroes in on a particular region of your body that needs special attention,
4. configure the speed of the scan,
5. tap into your brain's mapping of your peripersonal space, and
6. double-click the middle headset button to move onto a cognitive shuffle pack.
"Body scanning" is a mindfulness meditation recommended by many psychologists. We call this an _affective_ body scan because it might help you accept and regulate your moods and emotions.
This new pack has a natural (human) female voice.
This version of mySleepButton also includes updated tutorials and various minor fixes.
1.3.3
2015-10-25

2. Added better support for iOS 9.
3. Enhancements and changes to improve stability.

Fixed reported crashes.
1.3.1
2015-07-07

1.2.3
2014-11-04
# Enhancements
* Updated French tutorials.
* Added more guidance in the UI.
* Translated privacy policy and Terms and conditions in French.
# Bug Fixes
* Fixed a number of issues regarding the downloading and restoring of packs, including a crash, that were due to them being quite big (i.e., we provide a lot of content for a very low price). Significantly changed the way packs are handled. As a result, when you install this version, your old packs will be removed from the app and you will need to download new versions of the packs. To do this, please use the "Restore/Update Purchases" button at the top of the packs screen. The packs are big, therefore this may take a while, so please keep mySleepButton in the foreground during the download.
* Prevented a situation in which the pack button would be disabled after a download failure.
* Added "Touch to Retry" after pack purchase failure.
* Fixed a rare condition in which the display of a mySleepButton pack's status on the Mode screen ("trial") could differ from the status of the same pack on the Packs screen ("installed").
# Other changes
* Updated Legal Terms and Conditions page, per http://mysleepbutton.com/legal/app-terms-and-conditions/
* Updated documentation to reflect changes in mySleepButton 1.2.2 pertaining to voice gender and speaker.
* Other documentation changes.
* Updated the feedback form.
