New:
- Day View: Gain quick access to today's entries by tapping on date in the calendar or main timeline.

Updated/Improved:
- Daily Reminders now include additional information like the number of photos you took and locations you visited during the day
- Settings pages now provide links to Day One feature documents
Fixed:
- Fixed video thumbnails from not displaying in the media timeline

- Fixed a bug that was causing some text to be cut off in the multi-entry view
- Various other bug fixes and UI updates to keep your journaling experience golden
