Appearance

Changelog ​

All notable changes to Sojourn will be documented in this file.

[v0.5.0] - 2026-04-01 ​

Added ​

Notes ​

  • Block-level drag handles — every block in the note editor (paragraphs, headings, lists, blockquotes, horizontal rules, code blocks, scripture embeds) now has a drag handle for reordering. On desktop, handles appear on hover; on touch devices, they're always visible.
  • Touch reorder action bar — tapping a drag handle on mobile opens a compact bottom toolbar with move up/down buttons, indent-into-list buttons (when adjacent to a list or sublist), and a close button. The selected block is highlighted with teal "grabbed" bars.
  • Indent into list — dedicated buttons in the touch action bar move a block into an adjacent list or sublist. Separate from move up/down which only swap siblings at the same level.
  • Grabbed block highlight — when reordering on mobile, the active block shows teal left+right accent bars with a subtle teal background wash, making it visually clear which block is being moved.

Memorization ​

  • Mobile typing improvements — persistent hidden input with dynamic positioning for stable mobile keyboard focus. First-letter mode shows red highlights on wrong answers and auto-scrolls on mobile.

Fixed ​

  • Fixed drag handle alignment inconsistency across block types — handles now vertically center with each block's first line using computed font metrics
  • Fixed drag-and-drop duplicating blocks instead of moving on desktop — bypassed ProseMirror's internal drag processing that interfered with widget-initiated drags
  • Fixed drop indicator bouncing erratically during drag — simplified to a single boundary-nearest strategy
  • Fixed list blocks nesting inside other lists when reordered — lists now swap as siblings instead of entering adjacent lists
  • Fixed keyboard drag cancel (Escape) undoing too many history entries — removed duplicate move count increment
  • Fixed blocks inside list items losing drag handles — plugin now recurses into list children
  • Fixed drop targets missing for top-level lists — boundaries now include list top/bottom edges
  • Fixed scripture block drop position misalignment on mobile
  • Fixed mobile scroll behavior for memorization first-letter mode

Changed ​

  • Extracted drag-and-drop infrastructure into reusable shared libraries (tiptapDragDrop.ts, DraggableBlock.ts, BlockHandlePlugin.ts, touchDrag.ts)
  • Replaced scripture-block-specific inline DragHandle.vue component with a unified ProseMirror plugin system
  • Configurable splash screen social media links

[v0.4.0] - 2026-03-23 ​

Added ​

  • Reference detection in search — typing a Bible reference like "John 3:16" in the search bar automatically detects it and shows the passage directly instead of running a keyword search. Supports full citation syntax including verse ranges, comma-separated verses, and semicolon-separated multi-tab queries.
  • Semicolon multi-tab search — separate search queries with semicolons (e.g., "faith; John 3; hope") to open each as its own tab. Works in both the search bar and the command palette.
  • AI search throttling — client-side throttle with retry UI prevents overuse of premium AI search. Separate throttle bucket from standard search.
  • Hide search results — hide individual verses or AI passages from results. Toggle visibility with "Show hidden" button.
  • Unified result cards — search results, AI passages, and reference results now use a consistent card design.

Command Palette ​

  • Fluid Bible passage lookup — type a Bible reference (e.g., "John 3:16", "Jude 4") directly in the command palette to see a "Go to [reference]" command. Supports single-chapter books where bare numbers are verses (e.g., "Jude 4" → Jude 1:4).

Notes ​

  • Mobile bottom sheet for inline verses — inline scripture references now open in a native-feeling bottom sheet on mobile instead of a popover.
  • Inline verse expansion — expand inline verse references up or down to include adjacent verses, with a convert-to-passage option.

Memorization ​

  • Redesigned passage cards — memorization cards now show stat pills (mastery, stability, last reviewed) with tappable popovers for detailed information.

Other ​

  • Splash page redesign — new split layout with Daybreak/Terrain themes and social links.
  • Send Feedback button — added to user profile dropdown for quick access.
  • Mailcoach integration — email marketing integration.

[v0.3.0] - 2026-03-18 ​

Added ​

Bible Reading ​

  • Share passage — share selected verses via the Web Share API (or clipboard fallback). Share links encode the selected verses in the URL (e.g., ?verses=16-18) and highlight them when opened.
  • Adjustable font size — choose from 5 font size levels for both reading and notes. Available in Settings > Appearance and via the command palette.

Notes ​

  • Note view page — a read-only view of any note at /notes/{id} with expanded scripture blocks and "Read in context" links that navigate to the verse with highlighting.
  • Print notes — print any note directly from the view page or the note card overflow menu. Print-optimized CSS hides app chrome for a clean printout.

Fixed ​

  • Notification modal no longer overflows on smaller screens

Changed ​

[v0.2.0] - 2026-03-17 ​

Added ​

Notes ​

  • Trash bin — deleted notes are now recoverable for 30 days. Restore, permanently delete, or empty the entire trash from the new Deleted Notes page. Notes in encrypted journals are permanently deleted immediately for security.
  • Smart verse paste — copy a verse from the reading view, then paste it into a note to automatically create a scripture reference link.
  • Verse expansion — inline scripture references now have buttons to expand the verse text or convert to a full passage block.
  • Auto-save on title blur — note titles now save automatically when you click away, so you never lose a title during creation.
  • Bible reference auto-detection — typing or pasting a Bible reference (e.g., "John 3:16") in the note editor automatically converts it to a clickable scripture link.

Note Scanning ​

  • Improved scan progress — each scanned image now shows its own real-time status (uploading, processing, completed, or failed) instead of a single progress bar.
  • Retry failed images — if an image fails to process, you can retry, replace it with a new image, or remove it — no need to restart the entire scan.
  • Reliable uploads — image uploads now persist across page navigations and continue in the background even if you close the browser (Chrome/Edge).
  • Scan status on note cards — notes with an active scan show a status badge on the journal list so you can see progress at a glance.
  • Scan notifications — receive an in-app notification when your scan completes.

Bible Reading ​

  • Mobile verse actions — verse action buttons are now grouped in a dropdown menu on mobile for a cleaner reading experience.
  • Better abbreviation support — Bible book abbreviations with periods (e.g., "1 Cor.") and Roman numerals (e.g., "II Kings") are now recognized throughout the app.
