Upd. 03.06.2015: 0.15.1 with bug fixes is out.
It turns out that the latest version has a lot of critical bugs. Thus, the next release will be mainly about fixing them.
Among the bugs:
+ FC when you enter Notes in two-column mode
+ FC when you cancel achievements dialog
+ 'Now!' in Days/Priorities dialog does not refresh the data set
+ Pomodoro crashes on period change if the app is in the background
+ Project sub-actions does not get parent set (thus becoming simple actions) when coming from the Weekplan page
+ some more.
All of these were reported by you, either by FC reports or by reviews or by direct letters - thank you! And a special thank to one particular user, who constantly keeps giving us feedback almost after each update!

Weekday, recurrence, reminder - how they behave in regards to Weekplan
A recent user has asked a question about the behavior of the day selection, recurrences, reminders of an action. I'll bring the reply text partially here as it will probably be very helpful to others as well.
First, there was a simple 'Week view' for which you could set
an action. If you set a day on an action, it will be shown on that day
in the Week plan. If you don't, it would be shown on the 'Not set'
section. The quadrants filter filter by this day - it checks for exact value of this property of an action set.
Then
there came the recurrences - from simple ones like once a week to a
little more complex, like several weekdays. This new functionality has
to be merged with the previous 'day' selection. And it took priority
over the weekday set. I.e., if you have both, the recurrence will be
taken into account on the Weekplan page - the action will be shown for
each recurring day, and ignore the day set. The problem here is - the
filter on the FTF/Actions pages still works with the old day setting.
This is definitely a bug (or, rather a not updated functionality), so
we'll fix it soon.
Also, there's a third feature that
is related - reminders. Up until recently we had only one-shoot
reminders. Recently we've added the reminder type 'On recurrence days'.
From its name you could have guessed that it fires on the days the
action is to be shown. Every day it takes today's actions and schedules
reminders for those that have a reminder set. And by 'today's actions' I mean those that are shown on the Week plan by the logic described above.
Again,
since the system has been evolving, not everything finished - we are
working on that. Hope the logic is clearer and more helpful now.
