Changelog

0.27.0

  • One optional question on your schedule — "how did you hear about us?" — asked once per household, skippable, and it helps us thank the right realtors and friends
  • If a gifted year is winding down, we now say so: one plain email a few weeks before it ends — nothing gets charged, your records stay, one button if you want to continue
  • Under the hood: a content-security policy now watches every page in report-only mode, the last step before enforcing it

0.26.0

  • Saving your first home is now one clear step: sign in and the account page shows just the three questions, then drops you straight into your schedule
  • The sign-in email now carries a 6-digit code alongside the link — if the link opens on the wrong device or your email app blocks it, type the code instead
  • Under the hood: a dependency security advisory patched same-day, and framework updates applied

0.25.0

  • A welcome page for housewarming gifts: www.lillypad.app/welcome walks you through the whole thing — sign in, enter your code, done — one step at a time, no card ever

0.24.3

  • Gift-year codes no longer ask for a credit card — a $0 checkout is truly $0. The gifted year simply ends on its birthday unless you choose to continue, and your records stay either way

0.24.2

  • Redeeming a gift or promo code is now explained right on the pricing page, even before you sign in — create your free account and the code box is waiting

0.24.1

  • Your home's stuff: every item now has an "Edit details" button — change the nickname, brand and model, install year, notes, and (for custom items) the reminder, without removing and re-adding

0.24.0

  • What does your home have? A twenty-second checklist at the top of your schedule (and on your account page): tick garden beds, a lawn, a sump pump, and the rest, and your schedule fits your place — no appliance page required

0.23.0

  • Garden beds, trees and shrubs, and lawn are now things you can add under Your home's stuff — and some tasks are for people who have them. As garden and landscape care is approved into the library, it shows up only for households that added the thing; everyone else's schedule stays exactly as long as it was

0.22.0

  • Share a project by link: the story, steps, dates, and photos on a clean public page — never the cost, the contractor, your materials, or your address. Nothing is public until you create the link, and "Stop sharing" kills it instantly

0.21.1

  • Sharing a Lillypad link now looks like Lillypad: link previews got a real design — Frankie, the brand type, and a little seasonal checklist — instead of plain text on a beige card

0.21.0

  • Four more states covered: Iowa, Missouri, Kentucky, and West Virginia — the schedule generator now knows 99 more zip prefixes, weather alerts included, with hand-written state guides to follow

0.20.2

  • A quiet security check now guards sign-in against automated abuse — most people will never see it

0.20.0

  • Real homeowners, real words: a rotating testimonial spotlight on the homepage and every state guide — every one a real person who gave their permission

0.19.0

  • Refer a friend: share your code and your friend gets 20% off their first year — after their first 30 days, $10 comes off your next renewal, up to 5 friends a year

0.18.0

  • One tap from Fix It Friday to your calendar: every digest includes an add-to-calendar link that drops the week's tasks onto your Saturday

0.17.1

  • State guide FAQs got smarter: hand-written questions now take precedence, and the automatic version of the same question steps aside

0.17.0

  • A home for the guides: lillypad.app/guides lists every published state guide, explains the climate zones, and shows how the whole system works

0.16.1

  • Each state guide can now hand you to the schedule generator in its own words — written for your state, not copied across all of them

0.16.0

  • Weather alerts: when the National Weather Service issues a freeze, winter storm, or high wind warning for your area, your digest leads with it and exactly what to do — capped at twice a month, never with anything to sell

0.15.0

  • "Doesn't apply to my house": hide any task that isn't yours — it leaves your schedule, your progress counts, and your Friday email, restorable anytime
  • New households start with a calm "This weekend" view: three good first tasks, the whole year one tap away
  • The current season's heading shows your progress ("4 of 7 done"), echoed by a quiet check-in in Fix It Friday

0.14.0

  • State guide photos now credit their photographers — an overlay caption linking to the artist's page
  • Guides carry richer search-engine metadata and link to our honest app comparison

0.13.2

  • Paid plans are live — real cards, real subscriptions, 30-day refund promise in effect
  • Promo codes now get entered right on the pricing page, and the discounted total shows before you pay

0.13.1

  • Two comparison pages: Centriq alternatives and the best home maintenance apps of 2026 — honest about where each competitor beats us, with links to every app

0.13.0

  • Printable PDF export: your home's whole record — maintenance log, projects, costs, equipment — laid out for a binder, next to the JSON export
  • Rate limiting on every public endpoint, part of a full pre-launch security review

0.12.0

  • Your schedule is now two tabs: a To-do list and a Maintenance log — finishing a task adds it to the log with the date and who did it, right where you clicked
  • Filter by season, difficulty, or the things you own; sort by quickest or easiest first for knocking out Saturday wins
  • The list reads in order of relevance: this season first ("now"), always-doable tasks second ("anytime"), then the seasons ahead ("up next")
  • Every task carries a difficulty — easy, moderate, or involved — reviewed by a person like everything else in the library

0.11.0

  • State-by-state maintenance guides, starting with Ohio: each written and approved by a person, never generated in bulk, with real photos, local freeze timing, a hand-written Q&A, and a live schedule generator
  • A proper mobile menu: reach How it works, Pricing, and Log in from your phone anywhere on the site
  • Sitewide polish: clearer buttons, proper link-preview cards when you share a page, and speed and security hardening under the hood

0.10.0

  • The paid plan is real: $59/year, annual only — the free plan is how you try Lillypad
  • Upgrade, manage billing, and cancel in two clicks, self-service; canceling keeps your access through what you paid for and never deletes your data
  • A plain-language refund policy: 30 days, no questions asked

0.9.0

  • Fix It Friday exists: a weekly email (monthly on the free plan) tuned to your climate zone, your appliances, and your project deadlines
  • One-click unsubscribe, honored everywhere, records untouched
  • No marketing in the weekly email, ever — that's the covenant

0.8.0

  • Your home's stuff: track the furnace, water heater, and everything with a model number, with up to 3 photos per item
  • Your schedule gets personal: tasks for things you own say so — “Yours: furnace, installed 2019” — and custom items get their own reminders
  • Finish a linked project and the item's service record updates automatically
  • The signed-in app got its own left-hand menu, anchored by a photo of your house

0.7.0

  • Projects: keep the story of every job — steps, photos, who did the work, and what it cost
  • Cost privacy, structurally: spending lives in its own table and an automated test proves it can never reach a shared payload
  • Your one-click export includes projects, steps, photos, and costs

0.6.0

  • Your schedule is now interactive: mark tasks done and build your home's history
  • Export everything with one click — your household, home, invites, and full task history as one file that's always yours

0.5.0

  • Accounts are here: sign in with an emailed link — no password to remember
  • Save your home and your schedule comes with it, nothing retyped
  • Households: invite anyone by email and they see the same home data you do

0.4.0

  • The schedule generator is live: three questions, then a seasonal maintenance schedule tuned to your home and climate — free, no login
  • Every task in the library is checked by a person before it can appear in anyone's schedule
  • Print your schedule as a one-page checklist for the garage wall, or have it emailed to you with seasonal reminders

0.1.0

  • Lillypad goes live: homepage, early-access list, Privacy Policy and Terms of Use, and Frankie's debut
