Putting the clock right afterwards

• Go back to any day — Arrows or a date picker, and edit what is there
• Correct the times — Start, finish and workspace, all editable
• Add a stretch you forgot — For a day you worked and never clocked on
• Marked, always — Anything entered or corrected later is labelled, on screen and in reports
• The original is kept — An edit never destroys what was first recorded
• Fixed: a forgotten clock-off ran for days — An open stretch from an earlier day no longer counts until you say when it ended
• And it tells you — Any day left unclocked is flagged when you open the app

Birthdays by person, not by household

• 👤 By Person view — Every individual on their own line, soonest birthday first
• Household and role shown — So you know who they are as well as when
• Colour by nearness — Red within a week, amber within a month
• The card now names whose — "Ruben, in 12 days" rather than just a number
• Fixed: children were invisible — Birthday sorting only ever looked at the first two people in a household
• Prints as a list — A proper birthday list for the year
• Households still there — The view button cycles household, person, timeline

Contacts for a whole life, not just a client book

• As many people as the household has — No longer two slots; children at home get their own line
• Each with their own birthday — And a note saying who they are
• Client, family, friend, colleague — Tick as many as apply, because people are often more than one
• Filter the list by kind — Work, personal, or one category at a time
• Birthdays split work from personal — In the What's Coming report
• Households still group and print — The record is still the household; the people inside it are now individuals
• Nothing lost — Existing records are brought across on first load and marked as clients

Clock on to a workspace, not just to the day

• Each stretch is labelled — The clock records which workspace you were in
• Move without clocking off — One button when you shift to something else
• One stretch at a time — You cannot be in two places, so moving closes the last one
• Where the day went — Hours per workspace, with the booked share for each
• The badge says where — Not just that you are on
• Reports name the stretches — So a printed day shows what the hours were spent on
• Earlier records still count — Stretches from before this are shown as unlabelled

Getting tasks into your lists

• Tick and move — Send any number of tasks to a list in one go
• Show what is not in a list yet — So nothing is left behind
• Each task shows where it currently sits — In the list's own colour
• A word if your lists are empty — The ranking panel now says so, rather than looking like no lists at all
• Master Tasks included — They can be sorted into lists before they are ever promoted

Work for someone who has no task

• Log Activity can name people — A note, a call, a quote sent, with no task required
• Add a contact from there — Same as in the task panel, without leaving what you are recording
• It lands on their record — Shown on the contact card as other work logged
• Counted in their total — Time for a person adds up whether or not a task was involved
• Grouped properly in reports — The day's work sits under the client it was for
• Choosing a task suggests its people — So the common case needs no extra typing

Settings you can navigate, and a button that says what it does

• Four sections — Lists & rates, Contacts, Backup, Make it mine
• Lists shown where the rates are — Every workspace and how it is split, with a Manage button that takes you to it
• Opens on Lists & rates — The thing most likely to be looked for
• Export is now Print & Export — Because it has not just been an export for some time
• Reports come first in it — They are what the button is mostly used for now

Search now shows you what it found

• Matches are gathered to the top — No more hunting for a card that was below the fold
• Your layout is put back exactly — Clear the box and every card returns to where you had it
• Nothing is saved while searching — The gathered view is never written to your data
• Move one while searching and it stays moved — A deliberate drag is respected
• The canvas scrolls back to the top — So the first match is where you are looking

Finished work stays on the record

• Completed section on every contact — What has been done for them, and when
• The history comes with it — Progress notes, logged time and links all survive completion
• Reopen — Put a finished task back on the canvas with everything intact
• In the contact file report — Open and completed work, each with its own tally
• Findable in search — Completed work turns up in Search Everywhere
• Older completions recovered — Tasks finished before this version are still shown where enough was kept

Add a contact without leaving the task

• Add someone new — Right there in the task panel, under Relates to
• Created and linked in one go — Type the name, press Enter, carry on
• It is a real contact — It appears in the Contacts workspace like any other
• Names you already have are recognised — It links the existing one rather than making a second
• Just the name — Birthdays, fees and notes can go in later, when you are not mid-thought

Steampunk Extreme

• Rivets everywhere — Along the plates, at the corner of every card, down the tab rack
• Pipework — Running down the left of every sidebar panel
• Riveted girder — The workspace tabs, with glowing lamplight on the active one
• Pressure gauge — The capacity bar under curved glass in a brass bezel
• Tooled leather — Task cards on stitched hide with brass at the corners
• Steam — A wisp from the clock while you are on, and none at all if your system asks for less motion
• Drawn, not downloaded — Every rivet is CSS, so nothing is fetched and nothing slows down

Skins — make it look like somewhere you want to be

• Six to begin with — Canvas, Steampunk, Industrial, Botanical, Nocturne and Paper
• A skin per workspace — So work can look like work and home can look like home
• Bring your own — Import a skin file, or save the current one to share
• Colours and type only — An imported skin cannot carry anything else with it
• Nothing else changes — Not a single task, date or figure is touched
• Travels with your backup — Your skins and choices come along

Hourly rates, costed work, and a brass time clock

• A rate against each list — Client work at one rate, business work at another, in every workspace
• Set it where you make the list — Or all together under Settings → Hourly rates
• Per-task rates — For the job that does not follow its list
• 💰 Time and value report — Hours costed by task, list and workspace, over any date range
• Your currency — Symbol is yours to set
• Silent unless asked — Leave the rates blank and nothing about money appears
• The clock got its brass — Riveted casing, glowing dials and a proper lever

Search, and a time clock

• Search box in every workspace — Filters the canvas as you type
• It looks past the title — Descriptions, next steps, waiting-on, linked contacts, lists and progress notes
• Everywhere — One search across all workspaces, Master Tasks, Quick Lists and contacts
• ⏰ Clock on and clock off — A big satisfying button, and a noise to match
• Several stretches a day — Lunch breaks and evening sessions counted separately
• A denominator at last — What share of your day was booked against tasks
• Fourteen days of history — Hours at work, hours logged, and the percentage
• End of day report knows — Clocked hours printed alongside the work

One view across every workspace

• Pick your workspaces — Tick any combination, or all of them, for a single report
• Priorities across workspaces — Each workspace with its separate lists, in ranked order
• 📅 What's coming — Everything with a date, in date order, across the lot
• Four sources in one place — Task follow-ups, Quick List dates, scheduled client events and birthdays
• Birthdays recur properly — Next occurrence worked out, with the age being turned
• Look ahead as far as you like — A week, a month, three months, a year, or a custom range
• Grouped by month and day — With how far off each day is

Separate lists, and a clearer Priority Radar

• Separate ranked lists — Name your own, so client work and business admin are not forced into one queue
• Each list ranks itself — Its own numbering, its own order, its own colour
• Assign in one click — A list dropdown on every row while ranking
• Arrange lays out columns — One column per list on the canvas
• Numbers in the Priority Radar — Matching the rank badge on the card
• Click a radar entry to open it — Straight to the task panel, no hunting on the canvas
• Arrange button made obvious — It is meant to be used again every time you add tasks
• Define none and nothing changes — One list, exactly as before

Contacts can be imported from a spreadsheet

• CSV and tab-separated files — Anything Excel, Google Sheets, Outlook or another address book can export
• Columns are guessed, then confirmed — Common headings are mapped automatically and you adjust before anything is written
• Preview first — See the first few contacts exactly as they will be created
• Given and family names joined — Handles exports that split the name across two columns
• Day-first dates by default — With a switch for month-first files, so birthdays do not land in the wrong month
• Adds rather than replaces — Existing contacts are kept and duplicates skipped, unless you ask otherwise
• Handles awkward files — Quoted fields, commas inside values, semicolons and tabs

A report suite built for reading into other systems

• Work done — Everything recorded in a period, grouped by contact then task
• Contact file — One client's details, linked tasks and full history, or every contact at once
• Where things sit — A workspace snapshot in priority order with next steps and follow-ups
• Time tallies at every level — Per task, per contact, and in total
• Both time formats — 1h 30m (1.50h), because systems differ on which they want
• Four one-click presets — End of day, Client file, Time only, Where things sit
• Print or save — Straight to the printer, or a dated and versioned file
• What Have I Done? untouched — The nuanced filtering still lives there

You can now see which version you are looking at

• Version badge in the header — Quiet grey, beside the title, brighter on hover
• Hover for the full filename — The complete dated version string, for matching against a downloaded file
• Click to open the release notes — Straight to About, so you can check what changed
• One version number, not five — The badge, the About panel and every export now read from a single declaration, so they cannot drift apart

Tasks can name the people they concern

• Relates to — Link a task to one contact, several, or none at all
• Always optional — A task never has to name anyone, and contacts never need a task
• Contact cards show their work — Linked tasks, next steps, follow-up dates and time logged
• Names on the cards — Task cards and Today's Focus show who a task concerns
• Time adds up per person — Hours logged against a contact's tasks total on their card
• Contacts still stand alone — Birthdays, events and scheduled items work exactly as before

Logged time and task history are now the same record

• Log Activity can name a task — Ticking "pre-existing task" now offers the open tasks in that workspace
• One merged timeline — A task shows its progress notes and its logged time together, in date order
• No double entry — Work is stored once; a plain note stays a note, timed work lives in the Activity Log
• Time per task — Hours logged against a task show on the card and in the panel
• Log time from the task — A button in the task panel opens Log Activity already pointed at it
• Logging keeps a task alive — Time booked against a task counts as touching it, so it stops drifting
• What Have I Done? untouched — The existing time reporting works exactly as before

Tasks that get pushed along rather than finished

• Progress log — Add a dated entry each time you move a task on; nothing is overwritten
• Next step and Waiting on — Recorded per task and shown on the card
• Follow-up dates — Park a task and its card fades until the date arrives
• 🎯 Today's Focus — One list across every workspace: due for a push, drifting, and Quick List items due
• Drift detection — Anything untouched for 14 days surfaces on its own
• Push a week — Move a follow-up on without opening anything
• Edit became a proper panel — Title, description, status and momentum in one form instead of a chain of prompts
• Logs print and back up — The history of a long job travels with your data

Quick List, and a sidebar you control

• 📌 Quick List — An always-visible register of things with due dates, sitting above Quick Notes
• Dates that speak — Overdue items turn red, anything due within a week turns amber
• Overdue count — Shown in the panel header so it is visible at a glance
• Two orders — Sorted by date, or switch to your own order and drag items around
• Ticking one off logs a victory — Progress is still worth marking
• Collapsible panels — Priority Radar, Victories, Quick List and Quick Notes each fold away, remembered per workspace
• Victories take less room — The panel is capped lower so it no longer crowds the sidebar
• Included in reports and backups — The Quick List prints with the workspace and travels with your data

A 30-day backup reminder

• Spoken plainly — If no full backup has been taken in 30 days, the app says so on opening
• Names what is at stake — Counts your actual tasks, Master Tasks and contacts rather than warning in the abstract
• Stays flagged — The Export button turns red until a real backup is taken
• Snooze, not dismiss — Seven days, then it asks again
• Quiet when there is nothing to lose — A near-empty install is not nagged
• Yours to switch off — A toggle in Settings → Backup & Restore, honestly labelled

The Export button can no longer be mistaken for a backup

• Export now asks — A readable report for this workspace, or a full restorable backup
• Plain wording — The chooser states which file can actually bring your work back
• Reports say so themselves — Exported reports carry a warning that they cannot be restored
• Backup age shown — The chooser tells you when you last took a real backup, in red if never or over a month
• One button, no hunting — A full backup no longer requires knowing to look in Settings

Every export now names itself properly

• Dated, versioned filenames — Exports are saved as YYYYMMDD Label v NN.NN-a
• No more collisions — The sequence climbs with every export, so two on the same day never overwrite each other
• Self-identifying files — The same version string is written inside each file, so it can be identified even if renamed
• Applies to all four exports — Workspace HTML, comprehensive JSON, full backup, and contact data
• Safe filenames — Characters that Windows and macOS reject are replaced automatically
• Sequence travels with your backups — Restoring on a new machine will not restart the numbering

Priority Order — a forced ranking for each workspace

• ☰ Rank button — Sits in the Priority Radar header of every workspace
• One combined list — Active canvas tasks and Master Tasks collated together
• Drag to rank — Or use ▲▼ to nudge and ⇑ to send to the top
• Independent of the canvas — The ranking is stored separately, so moving cards around never disturbs it
• Rank badges — Optional numbers on canvas cards so the two views stay connected
• Act from the list — Add to Radar, mark done, or promote a Master Task without leaving it
• Filter and quick sorts — Search by word, show active or master only, or reset to A–Z
• Arrange canvas — Optional one-click column layout in rank order
• Included in backups — Rankings travel with your export and restore files

Renamed to MyLifeCanvas + Comprehensive Backup

• New name — Renamed from "LifeCanvas" to "MyLifeCanvas" to differentiate from LifeCanvas Technologies
• MoMo Creative branding — Distinctive italicised orange "My" styling throughout
• 💾 Full data backup — Export ALL data (tasks, priorities, victories, contacts, settings, notes) from Settings
• Data restore — Import backup files to restore everything at once
• Settings reorganised — Contact Tracker → Backup & Restore → Make It Mine (personalisation)
• Safe task demotion — Tasks created in workspace now save to "💾 Saved Tasks" group when demoted
• Priority Radar fix — Removing from radar now resets the task's Priority button
• Icon fixes — Resolved all encoding issues with emojis and symbols
