v3.8.1

MediLog v3.8.1 is available as of now.

A new release a week after v3.8.0, not really unexpected given the significant nature of v3.8.0.

Fortunately there weren’t any big issues but a decent number of small annoiances which this release should address.

As usual a few new features slipt in as well, tags are now available for all tabs and I am seeding a few common tags so people get an idea how tags may be used.

v3.8.0

MediLog v3.8.0 is available as of now.

This release turned out to be a lot bigger than anticipated. Got rid of a big lot of antiquated code. MediLog is in it’s 8 year now and so were parts of it’s codebase. Anyway, along the way of lot’s of refactoring quite a few new features were added in.

Some of the more interesting ones are…

  • Backup: Added machine-readable metadata to backup files explaining the content of the backup
  • Tags: “exclusive tag” option enabling single choice tags
  • Glucose:Moved tags from 3 fixed tags to the unlimited tags used in other tabs
  • Charts: Show date of record when selecting a position in a chart
  • Charts: Added possibility to directly navigate to record from a chart

Analyse Health Trends

I know it’s quite controversial, but maybe here’s something useful AI can do for us and possibly do well:

Analyse MediLog health data, look for significant trends, correlations, and patterns accross all tabs of MediLog.

For this use case MediLog has added machine-readable metadata to each backup as of release v3.7.3. This means all one needs to do is to drag&drop a MediLog backup file on an AI window and provide a meaningful prompt.

Main new feature is user defined chart colours. A feature I have been asked for a lot because apparently it’s impossible to get colours right for everyone :-) Other than that a few smaller bug fixes which you can lookup in the changelog.

Custom colours

People have been all over me for the colours in the charts ever since I made them a little more prominent. Somehow I never managed to get the colours right for everyone.

So finally here’s the solution to end this conversations for good.

Custom Colors for the 3 colors I use in charts. Pick and chose to your hearts delight.

v3.7.1

Had to push a quick bugfix release as introducing the new Default Tab functionality unveiled a variable with the wrong type which, for some users, prevented the app from starting.

That variable has been around for a while but was silently converted automatically, until now :-/

Added a more resiliant and self-correcting way to handle such situations.

FDroid is a lot quicker these days, MediLog v3.7.0 is already available and with that I am able to test if this build passes the upcoming Google Developer verification…and it does. Both flavours sucessfully registered!

Updated filter icons

Getting some feedback that the current filter on/off icon is easy to miss, which I agree to, has hit me already as well. Hence here’s a modified design which changes the icon more visibly and also adds a counter to reflect how many filters are active. (time+tag+comment)

Let me know what you think.
