- New Advanced level: five deeper dives at Dream Wall, Bat Caves, Deep Reef, Close Encounter and Napoleon Reef. They have stronger currents, smaller creatures to find, and some shots that need two creatures in one frame.
- New creatures: hawksbill turtle, whitetip reef shark, electric clam and cuttlefish.
- Temple Wall now has the coral-crusted Ganesha statue and shrine pillars from the real site.
- Turtles now swim up to the surface to breathe, and you can follow them up.

Shell Swap Sneak peek
- A new chapter, Best Friends: some crabs now come in pairs and want to stand next to each other.
- Short guided lessons when a new rule appears, and a ? button that explains any crab or shell you tap.
- The crabs dance when a swap works out. The board now always fits the screen, and the size numbers are bigger.
- Coming next: a story told over twelve beaches. Shell Swap goes to beta testers soon.
- Tips now float above the court instead of covering the tiles. Tap anywhere to close one.
- The header and footer fit on small phones.
- Redrawn tiles: glazed zellige in a new colour for each chapter, with marble channels and stone basins. We then toned down the decoration so the channels stand out and the puzzle is easier to read.
- Water now flows tile by tile from the spring. When you solve a court, the fountains jet and splash.
- New app icon and share picture to match.
Reefspotting New
- First playable version: a calm photo dive inspired by real dive sites in West Bali.
- Two levels: Discovery Dives (five easy sites) and Open Water (Pos I and II, Cave Point, Temple Wall, Middle Reef).
- Hold to aim the camera, and look through your shots on the camera roll during the safety stop.
