Period planning stays consistent from screen to download

Version 1.6.16

Period Calculator 2.0.1 now keeps its upcoming dates consistent, gives the first calculation a clearer starting point, and makes the forecast easier to read on a phone.

One set of upcoming dates

The on-screen summary and downloaded planning image now use the same next fertile window and estimated ovulation date, including when the current cycle's estimate has already passed.

A clearer start and update flow

The first forecast waits for the visitor to choose Calculate. After that, edits update the calendar immediately, while Clear returns the page to a fresh start.

Phone results are easier to follow

After the first calculation, smaller screens move directly to the summary. Forecast rows stack into labeled records instead of forcing a wide table sideways.

Health context is more precise

Typical adult and teen cycle ranges are explained separately, while the page continues to state clearly that calendar estimates are not birth control, diagnosis, or pregnancy confirmation.

Auto loan estimates now match the deal more closely

Version 1.6.15

Auto Loan Calculator 2.0.1 now separates the interest rate used for the payment from APR, includes optional products that may be financed, and catches incomplete deal details before showing an estimate.

Interest rate and APR have different jobs

The scheduled payment uses the contract interest rate. APR remains visible as a separate comparison figure, so the two numbers are no longer treated as interchangeable.

Optional products have their own place

GAP coverage, service contracts, extended warranties, and other financed add-ons can be included without hiding them inside the vehicle price.

Tax estimates are more honest

State presets are labeled as planning starting points, Washington, D.C. asks for a deal-specific rate, and a direct state motor vehicle directory is available when the exact rule matters.

Incomplete numbers stop early

Invalid percentages, missing rates, and a down payment larger than the vehicle price now produce a clear message instead of a misleading monthly payment.

Camera details look like part of the photograph

Version 1.6.14

The Photo Details Frame Maker now shows its finished result sooner, keeps the controls calmer, and adds a compact new way to present real camera settings.

See the idea before choosing a file

A finished downtown example now sits beside the introduction and continues into the live workbench, so the result is clear before a photo is opened.

The preview comes first on smaller screens

On phones and compact windows, the live result sits above the controls. After a photo opens, the page brings that preview into view instead of making the visitor hunt for it.

A new technical strip

The third finish adds a compact white camera label with a restrained green rule and a more technical type treatment beneath the photograph.

Advanced details wait their turn

The seven most familiar settings stay ready to choose, while exposure, metering, white balance, dimensions, software, GPS, and other optional fields remain in one expandable section.

Large batches ask for less memory

ZIP files are assembled one finished photo at a time, duplicate file names stay distinct, and an honest batch-size boundary helps prevent oversized sets from overwhelming a phone or browser.

Two image jobs get simpler controls

Version 1.6.13

Image Converter 2.0 shortens a common format change, while Border & Padding makes image shadows easier to choose and adjust.

Three clear conversion steps

Add images, choose JPG, PNG, or WebP, then convert and save. On phones, the workspace follows that order from top to bottom.

Advanced settings wait their turn

Quality and transparent-pixel controls stay collapsed until they are useful, while plain format descriptions help with the everyday choice.

Four shadow starting points

None, Soft, Lifted, and Strong make it quick to add the amount of depth the image needs.

Depth stays adjustable

Softness, distance, and darkness sliders fine-tune a preset, and the chosen shadow settings remain on the device for the next image.

Files still stay private

Conversion, framing, preview, and export continue to happen locally in the browser without an account or image upload.

Vintage photos get four new camera personalities

Version 1.6.12

Vintage Photo Maker 2.1 adds familiar camera-inspired starting points while keeping every effect adjustable and entirely on the device.

Four camera looks

Disposable Camera, Instant Print, 35mm Color, and Toy Camera styles cover bright flash, creamy warmth, balanced film grain, and a deeper vignette.

A clearer film shelf

Presets are now grouped by era and camera, so it is easier to choose between an aged-photo period and a shooting style.

Better selection feedback

Short descriptions explain the character of each look, and the active preset stays unmistakably selected while adjustments are made.

Still private and adjustable

Every new style works with the existing live sliders and full-size JPG download. The source photo remains in the browser and is never uploaded to HandyPebble.

A private sketchbook opens in the browser

Version 1.6.11

The new I Love Drawing Web turns a browser tab into a smooth drawing studio with local artwork storage and full-resolution downloads.

Mouse, touch, and pen all belong

Draw with a mouse, one finger, or a pressure-sensitive pen. Smooth input handling keeps quick curves and slower details feeling natural.

Five useful tools

Brush, marker, airbrush, paint bucket, and eraser cover the everyday jobs. The marker stays continuous instead of forming a string of dark beads, and its opacity has its own control.

A canvas that fits the idea

Choose a sketchbook, square, portrait, wide, phone, or Letter-size canvas—or enter exact dimensions before the first mark.

Artwork stays on the device

Drafts autosave in the browser, the local gallery keeps recent work first, and original-size PNG or JPEG files download without an account, upload, database, or AI.

Print the artwork, not the toolbar

A dedicated Letter-size report sends the current full-resolution drawing, title, dimensions, and prepared date to the browser print dialog. It also supports Save as PDF.

Undo is within thumb reach on phones

Compact Undo and Redo controls now stay on the mobile canvas, so a mistaken mark can be corrected without leaving the drawing area.

Freelance quotes account for more of the real job

Version 1.6.10

The Freelancer Profitability Analyzer now catches percentage fees, extra fixed costs, and time that rarely appears in the first project estimate.

Percentage fees stay proportional

Platform and payment fees are calculated from the project price and included correctly when the tool works backward to a minimum quote.

A little room for surprises

Optional buffer hours account for follow-up, scope drift, and the unplanned work that can quietly lower a real hourly rate.

More costs have a place

Travel, materials, subcontractors, and other project-specific expenses no longer have to be squeezed into the software or client-acquisition fields.

Still simple when they do not apply

Every new allowance can stay at zero. The live verdict, copied analysis, printed report, and saved PDF all use the same transparent calculation.

Business tools return to the HandyPebble card shelf

Version 1.6.9

The Small Business Tools channel now presents every document and quick helper as a clear, familiar HandyPebble card.

Four substantial document cards

Invoices, quotes, estimates, and delivery notes each get enough room to explain the job before a visitor opens the builder.

Six faster helper cards

Dates, percentages, discounts, time zones, QR codes, and barcodes stay compact while remaining easy to scan.

A familiar visual rhythm

Strong outlines, restrained color changes, and small offset shadows bring the business shelf back into the wider HandyPebble family.

Built for every width

The cards use the extra room on a computer, settle into two columns on smaller screens, and become one clear stack on a phone.

Articles add two simple ways back

Version 1.6.8

Guides and reviews can now place two compact navigation buttons above the title, so readers can return to the HandyPebble homepage or the complete article library without hunting through the page.

Back to HandyPebble

One button returns directly to the main toolbox and its search, shelves, and newest tools.

Back to every article

The second button opens the full collection of guides and honest reviews.

Comfortable at any width

The outlined buttons stay compact on a computer and wrap cleanly when a smaller screen needs more room.

Only where they help

An article can keep a quieter standalone opening when the extra navigation is not useful.

August 25, 2026

Small-business work gets its own shelf

Version 1.6.7

The new Small Business Tools channel puts client documents and everyday business helpers in one focused place.

Four core documents

Invoices, firm quotes, planning estimates, and delivery notes now sit together instead of being scattered across the full toolbox.

Six quick helpers

Business-day math, percentages, discounts, time zones, QR codes, and barcodes cover the small jobs around the main job.

A direct route from home

The Business Tools shelf on the homepage now opens the complete channel and shows the current number of available tools.

Clear professional limits

The channel explains that its documents and calculations are practical starting points—not legal, tax, or accounting advice.
