Sofa 3.4.2 - Quality-of-Life Update

This release has lots of little features, improvements, and a healthy amount of bug fixes.

Hey gang, I’ve got a nice quality-of-life update for you. This release has lots of little features, improvements, and a healthy amount of bug fixes.

New Settings Design

The Settings area of the app has been completely redesigned from scratch. This brings a lot of customization across the app for things like changing the shape of items in your lists, hiding data types you don’t use, and a new “quirky mode” toggle.

Overview of what’s new:

  • A new “Fiddly Things” area to fine-tune and customize the app to your taste
  • New design for choosing an alternate app icon…and some new app icons
  • Simpler settings for themes…and some new themes
  • Easily see your iCloud syncing status

Other New Things

  • Expand and collapse groups. Tap the group title or using the ••• button.
  • Tap the Sofa logo in the top title bar for a fun surprise :)
  • New experience for choosing a list with adding, moving, copying, etc.
  • Backup files now include shared lists where you are the owner of a list

Smaller App Size

Sofa’s app size was getting a little too large for my liking. I’ve optimized things under-the-hood and was able to significantly reduce the size of the app on your device. Your device should now feel much lighter in your hands!
