A few notes on the changes I made: I dropped the asterisks entirely since Apple strips or ignores them anyway. I turned your headers into a short intro paragraph so it flows naturally. I also softened "squashed a few bugs" to "various bug fixes and performance improvements" since that reads more polished in a store context, but let me know if you'd like to keep the personality of the original wording.

THIS VERSION HAS MAJOR DESIGN UPDATES!

Dark Mode Has Arrived!
- Dark mode can be toggled on from your profile under appearance settings. You can choose system default, light or dark.
- This was a massive redesign, so let us know if you find anything off.

Design Updates
- We enhanced the design of our lower tab bar to give it a more "Apple-like" appearance of frosted glass.
- We redesigned the home page to have a more streamlined appearance. This helps you get to the stuff you want quicker.

BUG FIXES & ENHANCEMENTS:
- Converted date picker and progress update modals to be slide up sheets. This looks much better on mobile devices.
- Fixed some minor TypeScript warnings.
- Squashed a few other minor bugs, behind-the-scenes.

NOTE ABOUT RECENT OUTAGE:
If the app was down for you in the last 48 hours, this was due to a system-wide outage which was out of our control. The app was still fully available, just couldn't connect to the secured database. The issue has been fully remedied.
