Version 0.29.0 was cancelled due to a crash bug. If you updated Accrescent in the ~5 minute window it was available yesterday, you may need to update manually from the APK download. We've updated our release process to prevent issues like this from occuring in the future.

We've done our best to keep existing links from breaking, adding redirects where necessary. If you find out a link doesn't work anymore, please let us know so we can fix it. Blog updates still to come :)

In anticipation of our upcoming blog posts, we've refreshed our blog! It's now simpler, smoother, smaller, and JavaScript-free. We'll be revising it gradually, so let us know what you think of the new design! Accessibility is especially important to us. blog.accrescent.app

The servers were deployed a few weeks ago. However, our next app update had unexpected bugs, delaying its release. As a result, updates for all apps have been delayed since. We apologize for the delay and hope to resolve it by the end of the week. Thank you for your patience!
Development on our roadmap is progressing smoothly. Our next app and server releases are undergoing final testing before deployment. We hope to make an announcement soon about what Android's recently announced developer verification requirements mean for Accrescent. Stay tuned!

Since we published our blog post on the future of Accrescent, donations have increased dramatically. According to the rates in that post, we should now be able to fund full-time development through at least May 2026! Thank you to our community for your monumental support!
