Meridian 1.39.1

July 10, 2026

Taps and pane switches stop stalling, Insights and Contacts stop going blank, and screens say when they're loading.

Improved

• No more beachball on “Mark done” — completing a task responds instantly now; the bookkeeping happens in the background. The same treatment covers the inbox refresh right afterward and two more assistant-card actions.
• Switching to Calendar is quick — building your schedule (including expanding repeating events) moved off the interface thread, so the pane appears immediately.
• Lighter, targeted data loading — several screens quietly loaded your entire mailbox just to show a count or a handful of messages. They now ask only for what they show, which also stops them from slowing down every other part of the app while they load.

Fixed

• Insights and Contacts no longer go blank — both panes were stuck waiting behind those whole-mailbox loads. Insights now counts in the database and renders immediately; your contacts were never gone — the list just couldn’t get a turn to load.
• Screens say when they’re loading — Insights and Contacts show a loading indicator on first open instead of a blank pane, so “still loading” never looks like “my data disappeared.”
• The startup screen is back to its light look — in dark mode it briefly showed a white logo on a dark backdrop.
