Timeline

This update is proof that one email can spiral into a full revamp: a simple request turned into rebuilt onboarding and much better server management.

What’s new and improved:
•Fixed cases where Kapal could show “no cameras” even though you were connected and cameras were still loading
•Better connection handling: Kapal now detects disconnects while you’re using it and prompts you instead of requiring a quit/relaunch
•Cleaner settings layout (system options moved out of Camera Settings into the System view)
•Server URL testing when you add a server to confirm connectivity and help you choose the most secure option available
•Added a Support button during onboarding if you hit issues getting your server authorized
•Plus a pile of smaller polish and consistency fixes throughout the app

Also introducing Kapal+ to help fund ongoing development, with:
•Multiple servers
•Server priority ordering
•Automatic failover if your primary server goes down

I’ve got a ton of ideas queued up for what’s next. The only big area left that still needs the full treatment is the Events page — and I’m looking forward to improving it soon.

And seriously: keep the feedback coming. If one email can cause this much change, imagine what two could do.

What's New

Weekly progress rings
See your last 7 days at a glance, right from the main screen. Powered by HealthKit so it includes water logged anywhere.

Living water
The water surface now gently ripples with layered waves.

About this app:

I was looking for a simple water tracker. One that let me open the app, tap a button to add my drink, and get back to my life.

What I found were apps filled with ads, confusing graphs, and constant pressure to buy a subscription. I wanted a tool, not a chore.

So, I built Biru.

Biru is the water tracker I always wanted. It's built on one core idea: tracking your water should be fast, simple, and completely frustration-free.

WHY BIRU IS DIFFERENT:

• NO CLUTTER, PURE FOCUS: Biru's beautiful, clean interface shows you just what you need: your daily progress as a calming, rising wave. Nothing else gets in your way.

• GET IN, GET OUT, GET HYDRATED: Log your water with a single tap. Customize your quick-add buttons to match your favorite water bottle, and you're done in seconds. This is the fastest way to track your intake.

• NO ADS, NO SUBSCRIPTIONS. EVER: Biru is about hydration, not monetization. The app is yours, with no ads to distract you or subscriptions to worry about. It's just a simple, honest tool that does its job perfectly.

• A SIMPLE, SMART START: Answer a few quick questions, and Biru will suggest a personal daily goal for you. It's a smart starting point that you can easily adjust at any time.

• SEAMLESS APPLE HEALTH SYNC: Your water intake is part of your overall health. Biru integrates perfectly with Apple Health to keep all your data in one secure place.

If you've been searching for a water tracker that respects your time and your focus, your search is over.

What's New

Birdseye Auto-Hide
Birdseye can now automatically show and hide based on activity. When set to "Only With Detections," Birdseye appears when objects are detected on any camera and disappears when activity stops. Find this option in Settings → Birdseye → Visibility.

Improved Network Performance
Fixed an issue where snapshot requests could pile up on slower connections. The app now waits for each request to complete before starting another and automatically backs off when experiencing connection issues.

Thank you for using Kapal! If you have feedback or run into any issues, please reach out via Settings → Contact Support.

Smarter Streams, Faster Loading

This update improves how Kapal connects to camera streams and makes setup cleaner.

SMART STREAM DETECTION

• Kapal now auto-detects the best stream type per camera by analyzing your go2rtc configuration
• Settings now shows at a glance which cameras support HLS, Sub Stream, or MJPEG
• Added "Reset Stream Detection" to re-probe after Frigate/go2rtc changes

FASTER CONNECTIONS

• Rebuilt timeout logic gets you to video faster
• Quicker detection of connection problems means less waiting on black screens
• Live connection status like "Checking HLS...", "Trying Sub Stream..."

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE

• Keep watching cameras while using other apps
• Available for HLS streams. Tap the PiP button in the controls overlay

NEW SETUP GUIDE

• Added an HLS Streaming Setup guide in Settings to help configure go2rtc for best quality

SETTINGS CLEANUP

• Cameras now live on their own subpage in Settings to reduce clutter and keep stream settings focused

BUG FIXES

• Fixed swipe-to-dismiss not working on MJPEG streams
• Improved text readability in setup guides

If Kapal’s been useful, an App Store review helps a lot.
Questions or issues: Settings → Contact Support.

What’s New in Kapal

First of all, a huge thank you to everyone who has given Kapal a shot. Building this has been a labor of love, and seeing others find it useful really keeps me going.

This update brings several new features to help you keep an eye on your home:

• High-Quality HLS Streaming: I’ve introduced support for high-quality video via go2rtc. Please note that for this to work, you’ll need to have go2rtc streams configured in your Frigate server. If you’re unsure how to set that up, the Frigate documentation is a great place to start.
• Performance vs. Quality: You’ll now find a new "Stream Mode" toggle in settings. Choose "Quality" for a crisp, high-definition HLS feed, or "Performance" for a lower-latency MJPEG stream that loads nearly instantly.
• Birdseye Support: Birdseye is finally here. You can now view your composite feed directly in the Live tab. I’ve also included sizing options so you can set it to "Large" if you want it to act as a full-width hero card at the top of your grid.
• System Stats: A brand new System tab is now available, allowing you to monitor your Frigate server’s health, storage usage, and detector performance in real-time.
• Automatic Stream Recovery: If a high-definition stream isn't supported by your hardware (which can happen with certain H.265 formats), Kapal is now smart enough to automatically cycle through your available feeds until it finds a usable stream so you aren't left with a black screen.

Note: To get the most out of the new Birdseye features, please ensure you have 'restream: True' enabled in your Frigate config.

I’m still working hard to make this the best experience possible, so if you have any questions, feedback, or just want to report a bug, please reach out at hey@judeworks.app. I’d love to hear from you!

Daily Petal 1.3 is here. Onboarding is smoother, Settings got an update, and flower loading is faster and more reliable. Plus a handful of small tweaks and fixes to keep everything feeling crisp.

Thank-you message
Thank you to everyone who uses Daily Petal, shares it, and leaves feedback. Your support directly shapes these updates and keeps the app growing. I genuinely appreciate you.

What's New

• Fixed authentication issues with various Frigate server configurations including reverse proxies, URL redirects, and token-based auth setups
• Live camera streams now automatically reconnect when returning to the app after being in the background
• Event thumbnails and snapshots load more reliably with automatic retry on failure
• Added image caching for smoother scrolling in the event browser
• Camera grid now refreshes periodically even when live preview is disabled
• Fixed text visibility in dark mode on camera cards

This update brings new customization options and navigation improvements to Kapal:

• Object Overlays: Added a new setting to show or hide the red object detection tags on your camera previews.
• Swipe to Dismiss: You can now swipe down to close the full-screen camera view.
• Cloudflare Support: Added preliminary support for Cloudflare Tunnels.

If you run into any issues with these new features or have feedback, please reach out to hey@judeworks.app.

What’s New:

• tvOS 26 compatibility and performance improvements
• New in-app How to Use page with CSV format and hosting tips
• More reliable auto updates: downloads finish before playlist switches
• Stability and logging improvements

About this app:

Turn any Apple TV into reliable digital signage. No subscriptions. No proprietary boxes. Point WildStream at a CSV. It downloads your photos and videos, then plays them on repeat. Works offline after caching. Manage one screen or hundreds.

WHY WILDSTREAM
• Low cost: standard Apple TV hardware, zero monthly fees
• CSV driven: edit one spreadsheet to update every screen
• Offline friendly: playback continues without internet once cached
• Jamf Pro ready: push configuration at scale
• Resilient: skips missing files, no freezes or error popups
• Set and forget: optional auto start and auto check

BEST FOR
Retail, lobbies, menus, events, offices. Anywhere a loop of photos and videos is enough.

WHAT'S INCLUDED
• Full screen photo and video playback
• Local caching to Apple TV storage
• Optional interval to re-fetch the CSV
• Per-device or fleet control via Jamf Pro

HOW IT WORKS
1) Create a CSV with a header row and these columns:
Title, URL, Description (optional), Type, DisplayDuration (seconds for photos)

Example:
Title,URL,Description,Type,DisplayDuration
Sunset,https://example.com/photos/sunset.jpg,Evening sky,Photo,8
Intro,https://example.com/videos/intro.mp4,Welcome clip,Video,
Mountains,https://example.com/photos/mountains.jpg,Scenic view,Photo,10
Spot,https://example.com/videos/spot.mp4,30-second ad,Video,

2) Host the CSV at a stable HTTPS URL. A Raw GitHub Gist works well. Short links are fine if they point to a raw CSV.

3) Add the CSV in the app:
Media Stream URLs → Add New Media Stream URL → paste the HTTPS URL → select it. WildStream downloads the media and starts the loop.

4) Updates:
Enable CSV Auto Check to detect changes. WildStream downloads new items fully and switches playlists at the end of the current loop.

WHAT TO KNOW
• Use direct media links: .jpg .png .mp4
• Order follows the CSV
• DisplayDuration applies to photos only
• First run needs internet to cache files
• Cached media plays without internet after download
• Jamf Pro keys include CSV URL and auto start flag
• See the Support URL for fleet setup details
