Release notes & Roadmap

What is here now.
What comes next.

Release notes document what has shipped or entered beta. The separate roadmap preview shows the future directions being explored, so released work and planned work never blur together.

In betaCurrent preview

More data formats, in your language

Open Excel and Parquet beside CSV, choose the exact data you need and move through a more polished PlotPeek in English, Italian, French or German.

01

CSV, Excel and Parquet

Open .xlsx workbooks with worksheet and range selection, or typed Parquet data without converting it first. The same 11 analysis modes remain available and processing stays on device.

02

The app speaks your language

PlotPeek follows the device language automatically or lets you choose English, Italian, French or German. Dates, labels and controls adapt together.

03

A calmer workspace

Refined iPad and Mac panels, clearer View and Controls navigation, improved Notes, Settings and Recently Deleted, and better first-source fitting reduce friction.

04

More control from import to export

Faster CSV handling, worksheet and subsource persistence in Sessions and App Intents, plus export-only Matplotlib styling make recurring work more predictable.

ReleasedCurrent App Store release

Notes that stay with the work

Capture context beside your data, return to the exact graph that inspired it, and move through Files, Notes and Sessions with a calmer cross-device interface.

01

A real Notes workspace

Create Markdown notes with folders, tags, search, Cards or List views, sorting, attachments and Recently Deleted on iPhone, iPad and Mac.

02

Linked to the graph

Link several notes to a graph, save clean and annotated captures, and restore a saved graph snapshot into a new pane without replacing your current workspace.

03

Sessions you can trust

Save named Sessions from the View and graph menus. Safer startup recovery protects heavy or interrupted workspaces and preserves them for an explicit return.

04

Less interface, more flow

Pane-local Notes on iPad and Mac, a dedicated iPhone tab, clearer Back, Search and Select actions, mode-specific defaults, granular sync controls and better empty states.

Released22 August 2026

The fast first look at data

The first public release established PlotPeek as a native, lightweight companion for understanding a file quickly before deeper work begins.

01

Open the file

Import CSV data with robust delimiter and date handling, organize it into Projects, folders and tags, or explore without saving in an incognito session.

02

Find the signal

Move through 11 analysis modes with filters, resampling, smoothing, primary and secondary axes, Inspect, Zoom, Measure and interactive 3D exploration.

03

Make the view yours

Adjust themes and per-series appearance, work with several views and graph panes, and save Sessions that bring the workspace back together.

04

Take the next action

Export filtered CSV, PNG, JPEG or PDF, share with native system tools, and repeat useful imports through Workflows, Siri, Shortcuts and App Intents.

PlotPeek launched on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and Mac.

Roadmap preview · planned work

The next useful
things to explore.

These are product directions, not completed features or fixed-date promises. Priorities may change as current beta testing, technical validation and user feedback reveal what matters most.

Next priority01

Data health at a glance

Make the first look more trustworthy before choosing a chart.

  • Missing, invalid and distinct-value profiles
  • Duplicate, mixed-type and possible-outlier signals
  • Jump directly from a finding to the affected rows
Next priority02

Confidence with large files

Make it immediately clear which results use every row and which use a visual sample.

  • Exact, sampled or estimated labels
  • Full-file aggregates where they can be computed safely
  • More transparent large-file progress and limits
Planned expansion03

Repeat, refresh and compare

Spend less time rebuilding a familiar investigation when the source changes.

  • Import Workflow preflight and schema warnings
  • Refresh a linked source while preserving the view
  • Compare versions, columns and key summary changes
Analysis direction04

Sharper time and distribution views

Add a few broadly useful tools inside existing modes instead of expanding the menu endlessly.

  • Difference, percentage change, cumulative sum and baseline index
  • LOESS trend and ECDF distribution options
  • Automatic histogram bins with manual control retained
Future exploration05

Private on-device guidance

Help explain deterministic PlotPeek results without handing calculations to a language model.

  • Plain-language graph and data summaries
  • Suggestions for the next useful analysis
  • Draft a linked Note while keeping every action optional
Support independent development
