v6.1.0
Stronger passcode protection, safer syncing and locking, reliable offline use, and a working notes editor toolbar.
Improved
- Stronger passcode protection. Your data is upgraded automatically the first time you unlock; your passcode stays the same. Switch biometric unlock on again afterwards.
- Locking now clears your data from the app's memory, and unlocking brings it back. Undo history doesn't carry across a lock.
- Pull now asks before replacing changes on this device that haven't been synced.
- Cloud data that looks damaged is never applied — you'll see a message and your own data stays as it was.
- Text in your data or in imported files is always shown as plain text; session notes keep their formatting with anything unsafe removed.
- Omdex Clinic now opens offline after a single visit, and the offline copies of the different omdex apps no longer replace one another.
- Home-screen icons are now full resolution, including Android's adaptive icons.
Fixed
↓ Get v6.1.0
- Fixed the session notes toolbar showing blank buttons and lists without bullets.
- Fixed false "unsynced changes" warnings after pulling data from the cloud.
- Fixed the session notes editor not opening in the free demo.
v6.0.0
omdex is now Omdex Clinic, with a rebuilt, more secure Cloud Sync and safer handling of your data across devices.
New
- omdex is now called Omdex Clinic.
- Cloud Sync has been rebuilt. Your Sync Code now unlocks a private access key, so nobody without it can read or change your cloud data. Existing cloud data moves across automatically the first time you sync.
Improved
- One device can no longer overwrite newer changes made on another. If another device has synced since, your push is held and you're asked to Pull first; Save & Sync asks before overwriting.
- Changes made while offline are kept and synced automatically next time.
- Biometric unlock is now tied to your device's own fingerprint or face check. Switch it on again once in Settings; devices that can't support this securely use your passcode instead.
- A remembered Sync Code is now stored encrypted with your passcode.
- Sync Codes must be at least 4 characters.
- The Save button now tells you when changes were saved but not synced.
Fixed
↓ Get v6.0.0
- Fixed Reset All Data also erasing omdex-records and omdex-figures data, and pushing the emptied data to the cloud. Reset now clears only this device and switches Cloud Sync off, leaving your cloud copy for your other devices.
- Fixed the free demo being able to see and change your real data.
v5.0.9
Holidays and CPD events in your calendar, a tidier sidebar, a rewritten user manual, and a round of security and reliability fixes.
New
- Holidays — add a holiday with dates and an optional label (e.g. "Summer break"). Holiday days are tinted and labelled in every calendar view, on desktop and phone.
- When a new holiday overlaps booked sessions, omdex lists them and offers to cancel them all at once, or leave them for you to deal with yourself.
- The Holiday Notice email can now fill in its dates from one of your saved holidays, including the date you're back. A new {label} placeholder adds the holiday's name.
- CPD events in your calendar — book a single or multi-day CPD event and it appears in both your calendar and your CPD log. Click it in the calendar to open the entry, or drag it to move the whole event.
- Future CPD events are marked Planned and only count toward your yearly target once they've taken place.
- The New Task window now has 📚 CPD Event and 🌴 Holiday buttons, so everything that goes in the calendar starts from the same + button.
- Month button in the bottom bar — one click opens your most recent month view, and once it's showing you can switch between 3 Weeks, 4 Weeks and Full Month.
- Press Enter in any pop-up window to save or confirm, as if you'd clicked its main button.
- The User Manual has been fully rewritten to cover every current feature, with buttons at the top to jump to each section.
Improved
- Occasional tools — Generate Email, Holidays, Income Report, Clinical Report, CPD Log and User Manual — are now grouped under a 🧰 Functions button in the sidebar, which remembers whether you left it open.
- ⬇ Pull now sits next to ⬆ Push.
- Ctrl+S now works while you're typing. Pressed inside a note, it saves the note first and then syncs, so nothing you're writing is left behind.
- Moving a booking onto a time that's already booked is now blocked, and moving it onto a busy slot asks first.
- Configuration exports are now properly encrypted and can be opened on another device with your passcode.
- The sidebar now starts hidden on phones and tablets, without briefly sliding across the screen on load.
- The CPD Log now has a close button that takes you back to the view you were on.
- Day headers in Week view are now all the same height, so the Timeline grid stays lined up on days with a bank holiday.
- Undo and Redo now cover holidays and CPD entries.
- The manual's privacy page now explains how Cloud Sync protects your data, and why a strong Sync Code matters.
Fixed
↓ Get v5.0.9
- Fixed Change Passcode always saying the current passcode was incorrect.
- Fixed biometric unlock no longer opening your data after a passcode change.
- Fixed day pins being lost when restoring a .JSON backup.
- Fixed Ctrl+S opening the browser's own "Save page" dialog instead of saving.
- Fixed generated emails showing stray <p> tags in the message text.
- Fixed the Holiday Notice email leaving its date placeholders unfilled.
- Fixed small rounded corners showing on the paid/unpaid line under sessions when using square chrome styles such as Pine Marten.
v5.0.7
A clearer month screen on your phone, plus a tidier top bar and full-width week view on iPad and tablets.
New
- Phone month screen redesigned: a compact calendar shows a dot for each session (teal) and a dot for any tasks (yellow), and tapping a day lists that day's sessions and tasks underneath, with a + Task button for that day. It replaces the squeezed month grid, which was hard to read on a small screen.
Improved
- The top bar now stays on a single line on iPad, tablets and narrower windows. Less essential items tuck away as space runs out instead of wrapping onto extra lines.
- Month Summary now appears on tablet-width screens too, with its label stacking onto two lines when space is tight.
- Shorter date ranges: a week reads '21-27 Sep' (or '28 Sep-4 Oct' across two months), and the 3- and 4-week Month view reads 'SEP-OCT 2026'.
- Week and 2-week view day columns now stretch to fill the full width of the screen on iPad and tablets.
- Removed the Busy and Free filter buttons from the phone view to free up space.
Fixed
↓ Get v5.0.7
- Fixed an unstyled white Today button appearing on tablets after rotating or resizing the screen. The Today button now shows on phones only.
- Fixed the phone-only calendar toggle staying in the top bar after moving to a wider screen.
- Fixed the Timeline view's time column being too wide at tablet widths.
v5.0.5
Client database input and editing. New themes added.
New
↓ Get v5.0.5
- Updated client database functionality: set client code and initials; sort by A-Z or 'newest.'
- Editing client codes now reflects across all sessions and notes.
- Even more themes even though you never asked for them!
v5.0.4
A data-reliability fix — sessions, tasks and day notes are now kept in full instead of only the last six months.
Fixed
- Fixed browser auto-save silently dropping sessions, tasks and day notes older than six months, which also left them out of newer .JSON backups and cloud sync.
v5.0.3
Two-week stacked view and full task drag-and-drop, plus a round of data-reliability fixes to stop sessions and tasks going unsaved.
New
- Two-Week View — stack two weeks in the Week view, week 2 layered below week 1, each half independently scrollable. Toggle with the 🗓️ 2-Week button or the K shortcut.
- Task drag-and-drop — task pills in Week view (including the all-day lane) and Month view can now be dragged straight onto a different day to move them.
- Timeline auto-stretch — a session or timed task moved outside the configured day start/end now stretches that week's Timeline view to include it at its real time, instead of being pinned off to the side.
Fixed
- Fixed editing a task's date having no effect — changing the date in the task edit modal now actually moves the task, and shifts the rest of a recurring series or its future occurrences by the same number of days.
- Fixed several actions applying on screen but skipping the save step, risking data loss if the app was closed before the next automatic save: bulk slot actions (marking multiple slots busy/available/booked), deleting a single session, deleting a session and its future recurrences, and deleting a recurring task series.
- Fixed a conflict between task-pill dragging and multi-slot marquee selection that silently cancelled task drags before they could start.
v5.0.2
User-definable business types with visual schedule indicators — plus a fix for schedule pills that weren't reflecting each client's actual session length.
New
- Business Types editor in System Config → Comms & Signature — define custom business lines (e.g. Music, Consultancy, Coaching) alongside the default Counselling and Other, available in both the Add Client and Edit Client dropdowns.
- Diagonal colour-stripe indicator on schedule pills for any client booked under a non-Counselling business type, auto-coloured per type for quick visual scanning.
Fixed
↓ Get v5.0.2
- Fixed Week Timeline view sizing every booked pill to the global default pill length instead of the individual client's own session length.
- Fixed the Add Client form silently discarding session length, client type, and custom category — these previously only saved when editing a client afterward, not on initial creation.
- Fixed the custom category field not appearing when selecting "Other" while adding a new client (only worked when editing an existing client).
- Editing a client whose business type has since been removed from the list no longer silently resets it to Counselling on save.
v5.0.1
Mobile feed fixes and quick navigation updates — resolved missing off-grid client session times in mobile views and added a dedicated email generation action button to the main sidebar.
New
- Added Generate Email button directly to the main sidebar for quick access to client communications.
Fixed
↓ Get v5.0.1
- Fixed off-grid client sessions not showing up in the mobile feed view.
v5.0.0
Major interface & navigation update — independent Chrome and Font customization engine, guaranteed Overview timeline anchoring, and seamless auto-scrolling to Today across view switches.
New
- Standalone Chrome & Font selectors — isolated window chrome styles and custom font configurations into independent global options managed via localStorage, allowing mix-and-match styling regardless of the selected color palette.
- Refined system header layout — aligned the Chrome selector and Font options controls into dedicated inline dropdown containers in the settings interface.
Improved
- Overview navigation — guaranteed today's date block is always included in the Overview timeline even on days without scheduled sessions or tasks, ensuring a permanent anchor target.
- Auto-scroll integration — seamlessly autoscroll and snap to Today when switching views to Overview, eliminating manual scroll requirements.
Fixed
- Fixed 'Go To Today' action failing on empty days due to missing target element anchors in the Overview list container.
- Resolved render timing race conditions by preventing redundant re-renders during view switches.
v4.4.9
Clinical Summary Reports can now include session notes, either from the report's date range or across all time.
New
- Session Notes option in the Clinical Report — include every note alongside CORE-10, PHQ-9, and GAD-7, either matching the report's date range or pulling all notes ever recorded for that client regardless of date.
- Included notes appear as a dated section in the printed/PDF report and are also added to the CSV export.
v4.4.8
Timeline view improvements for tasks and a major theme expansion to 52 fully balanced color palettes.
New
- Upgraded colour themes array to 52 options, perfectly balanced across the spectrum with new mid-tone, light-mode, and retro presets.
Improved
- Improved visibility of tasks on hover in Timeline view.
Fixed
- Fixed all-day tasks visibility in Timeline view.
v4.4.7
New Timeline view for Week — sessions and tasks laid out on a proportional time axis instead of a stacked list, so same-time items line up across every day.
New
- Timeline view — an alternative Week layout where sessions and tasks are positioned by actual clock time rather than stacked in a list, so a 3pm booking lines up horizontally across all 7 days. Toggle with the 📐 Timeline button or the L shortcut.
- Configurable Day Start/End and a default pill length for Timeline view, set in System Configuration → Session Grid.
- Task Length (minutes) field on the task create/edit modal — defaults to 60, used to size the task's pill in Timeline view (e.g. set 120 for a 2-hour task).
Improved
- All-day tasks, and anything outside the configured Timeline day range, are pinned as small chips rather than disappearing.
- Overlapping items at the same time (e.g. a task and a session together) now lay out side-by-side instead of stacking invisibly on top of one another.
- Timeline pill colours, text weight, and the paid/unpaid indicator now match list view exactly.
Fixed
- A keyboard shortcut change could be silently overridden by an old value baked into previously-saved settings, so a new default wouldn't take effect until manually reset. Shortcut preferences now only save genuine customisations, and a one-time migration corrects any already-affected saved data.
v4.4.6
Mobile cloud sync reliability fixes — pushes from mobile no longer silently go missing, and unlock/launch can no longer overwrite unsynced local changes with older or conflicting cloud data.
Fixed
- A push triggered by closing or backgrounding the app could be silently dropped if it landed inside the sync throttle window and the tab was suspended before its retry could fire — this was the main reason mobile → desktop sync was less reliable than desktop → mobile. A missed push is now recorded and automatically sent the next time the app opens.
- Before sending a recorded push, the app now checks whether the cloud has moved on in the meantime (i.e. another device pushed since). If so, it defers to a manual Pull with a clear warning rather than risking an overwrite in either direction.
- Force-pull on unlock could previously overwrite a genuinely newer, not-yet-synced local edit with older cloud data. It now compares timestamps properly and only pulls when it's actually safe to.
- A sync-pending flag could linger indefinitely after being resolved elsewhere (e.g. by a manual pull) — it's now cleared correctly in every case.
v4.4.5
New CPD Log & Hours Tracker — plan, log, and report your continuing professional development in line with BACP guidelines.
New
- CPD Log: record training, reading, peer groups, webinars, personal therapy, and supervision, each with hours, provider, and a reflection on impact to practice.
- Hours tracker with a progress bar against your annual target (default 30h, BACP's general guideline) — supervision hours are shown separately and don't count toward the target, in line with BACP's rules.
- Configurable CPD year — set your own cycle start date (e.g. calendar year or a UK tax-year-style Apr–Mar cycle) instead of a fixed Jan–Dec year, and browse previous cycles.
- Printable CPD summary report and CSV export, for accreditation renewal or audit.
- Full CPD data syncs and backs up alongside everything else — cloud sync, JSON export/import, and encrypted backup all now include it.
v4.4.4
Cloud sync race-condition fixes — manual pull can no longer be silently overwritten by a background push, and redundant sync calls have been cleaned up.
Fixed
- Manual pull (⬇ Pull) could be silently overwritten if a background push fired at the same time — pull now takes the same sync lock as automatic push/pull, so the two can no longer race.
- Removed a redundant, non-debounced auto-push that could fire in bursts and collide with the sync throttle during rapid editing — only the properly debounced push remains.
- Removed a duplicate cloud push that ran twice when locking the app — only the intended pre-lock push runs now.
v4.4.3b
Mobile reliability fixes — cancelled sessions now show correctly on mobile, auto-lock no longer fires on every background reload, and invoicing gains flexible date ranges plus new export formats. (Updated 'edit session details' functionality across multiple devices.)
New
- Invoice date range — select any custom "From" / "To" range for invoicing, covering multiple months or any custom period, in addition to the existing Last Month / This Month shortcuts.
- Invoice export — export a generated invoice as a .DOC (opens directly in Word) or a structured .XML file, alongside the existing print/PDF option.
Improved
- Auto-lock now tracks genuine inactivity rather than re-locking on every app open — on mobile, briefly backgrounding the app (which often triggers a full page reload) no longer forces the passcode prompt unless you were actually away for the full auto-lock period.
Fixed
- Cancelled sessions weren't shown as cancelled (greyed out, struck through) in the mobile day view — they now match the styling used everywhere else in the app.
- A fresh mobile screen load could show the app fully unlocked but with all data missing, requiring a manual cloud pull to recover it. Local data and cloud sync now always load correctly on open, including when auto-lock decides not to re-lock.
v4.3.8
Improved cloud sync and updated task creation options.
New
- Improved stability of cloud sync.
- Updated colour options for task pills.
v4.3.7
Improved billing workflow flexibility — updates invoice compilation sequences with an adjustable description parameter to cleanly customize line items immediately prior to template generation.
New
- Custom service description input field — added a structured inline input block within the invoice selector workspace interface.
- Dynamic invoice generation parameters — linked the finalized workflow routine directly to the item definition fields to inject custom text arrays seamlessly instead of relying on a fixed baseline description string.
v4.3.6
Enhanced cloud sync pipeline — patches background execution routines to optimize automated save distribution, synchronize remote states on initialization, and validate active sessions upon locking sequences.
New
- Auto-push after local save — updated scheduling mechanics to forward data profiles directly to the cloud interface precisely 1.5 seconds following local storage validation.
- Force-pull on unlock authentication — adjusted initialization protocols to bypass local revision timestamp assessments when the application is unlocked, securing consistent alignment with cloud records.
- Auto-push on termination context — linked remote data synchronization processes directly into application lock routines to anchor operational integrity automatically before session suspension.
v4.3.5
Professional letter generation tool — write professional communications directly to external healthcare departments, authorities, or support frameworks from within operational views.
New
- Generate Letter — produce a professional printed letter from your practice directly from the session action menu. Fill in recipient, purpose, session count, clinical summary and your accreditation details. Opens a print-ready window in the same style as invoices. Suitable for GP correspondence, DWP letters, CMHT referrals, fit note support, and any other outbound clinical communication. Client anonymity is preserved throughout — only the anonymised client code appears in the letter.
Improved
- Cloud sync conflict protection — manual pull now checks for unsaved local changes before overwriting, with a clear warning showing timestamps. Pulling when already up to date shows a toast confirmation rather than silently completing.
v4.3.4
Clinical reporting and interface improvements — generate printable outcome summaries and reclaim screen space with a collapsible client panel.
New
- Clinical Summary Report — generate a printable, exportable summary of clinical metrics (CORE-10, PHQ-9, GAD-7, and omdex-modes compass) for any client over a specified date range. Accessible from the sidebar. Includes PDF print and CSV export.
- Collapsible All Clients column — the All Clients panel in the Overview can now be collapsed to a minimal strip, giving the notes and schedule columns more horizontal space.
v4.3.3
Expanded clinical assessment options with PHQ-9 and GAD-7 tracking, alongside targeted quality-of-life adjustments to the booking workflows and invoice management.
New
- PHQ-9 & GAD-7 assessment tools — optional tracking forms for depression and anxiety metrics are now fully integrated directly into the clinical notes entry pane.
- Custom booking session times — added an optional time input field when scheduling slots, allowing custom precise times to override grid defaults.
Improved
- Invoice placement — the 🧾 Invoice button has been cleanly integrated into the Email Communications sub-menu overlay to streamline outbound client interactions.
- Booking modal interface — streamlined layout geometry by removing the redundant session type selection panel.
v4.3.2
A small follow-up update refining the Core 10 button in the notes input pane for a smoother clinical notes workflow.
Improved
- Core 10 button in the notes input pane updated for clearer access and improved behaviour while entering session notes.
v4.3.1
CORE-10 clinical outcome metrics integrated into the notes panel — score, track, and colour-code client distress levels without leaving the session view.
New
- CORE-10 assessment tool — a full 10-item outcome measure is now accessible directly from the notes panel in the overview. Enable via System Configuration → Security → Clinical.
- Distress colour indicator — the Core10 button in the notes pane reflects the saved score with a green-to-red colour scale (healthy through severe distress), giving an at-a-glance signal without opening the assessment.
- Reversed scoring for positively-worded items — questions 2 and 3 are now correctly scored in reverse (right answer = 0, left = 4), in line with the CORE-10 specification.
- Column headers added to the assessment table — scale labels (Not at all / Occasionally / Sometimes / Often / Most or all of the time) now appear above the response columns.
omdex-journal — temporarily unpublished
omdex-journal has been temporarily taken offline for a significant code overhaul. It will return. If you already have a copy, it continues to work as normal.
v4.2.6
A small quality-of-life release removing the periodic backup nag popup, which was disruptive on mobile.
Improved
- Backup reminder popup removed — the periodic confirm() dialog prompting a .json export no longer appears. The backup streak badge in the interface remains as a passive indicator.
