Two new ways to draw, something to watch, and a lot of quiet repair. NEW WAYS TO DRAW The drawing room is now split into Free Hand and Guided Drawing, so you can choose between an empty page and one that already has something on it. • Color a Mandala - six designs, printed line art, you choose the colors • Color a Tile Panel - repeating tiles inside borders, from ceramic and encaustic traditions • Draw Your Own Pattern - a bounded shape with a few faint dividing lines, and every mark inside is yours Each one lets you pick a design once you're in, and gives you the right tool to start with: markers for coloring, pencil for pattern work. KALEIDOSCOPES Six of them, in the sensory room. Colored glass, mirrored and turning slowly. Nothing to make and nothing to get right - the only thing asked of you is to look at it. They turn slowly on purpose, and hold still if you have Reduce Motion on. MUSIC "Held Ground": a drone or a slow drum plays underneath while you improvise, so keeping time isn't your job. The five instruments now genuinely sound different from each other, and the ambient layers actually play. SLEEP "A Walk at Night": a forest after dark. Owls, crickets, leaves, a branch somewhere, a river a long way off. GENTLER TOUCHES An optional question at the start of the day about what you want today to ask of you, and an optional one at the end of a session about how you're leaving it. Both are skippable, neither is graded. FIXES Bi-weekly goals no longer crash the app. Guidance text and alert buttons are readable in light mode. Colors in dark mode are the colors you actually picked. Journaling stopped asking how you feel three times in one sitting.

About
Velarium is a trauma-informed art therapy companion. A quiet room you can step into when the day is too loud — to draw, paint, journal, make a little music, ground through your senses, or drift off to sleep with a guided visualization. Nothing here is trying to optimize you. There are no streaks chasing you. No push notifications begging for your attention. No social feeds. Just exercises, your own creative output, and a way to look back gently on what you made. — What's inside — • Drawing & painting. Pencil-friendly canvases with gentle, optional guidance. Save what you finish to a private gallery on your device. • Journaling. Open-ended prompts paired with a calm editor. Mood check-ins use weather metaphors instead of numbers. • Music. Soft on-device piano, bells, ambient pad, strings, and marimba. Export your composition as a real audio file. • Sensory grounding. Guided practices for tactile and visual grounding when you need to return to your body. • Sleep tapes. Guided visualizations of moonlit oceans, autumn villages, falling snow, distant cities, and rainforests in the rain. Body scans and color meditations include calm on-device narration. • Day and night moods. Tap the sun or moon in the corner to shift the entire app's palette to match how you feel. — Designed for nervous systems that have had a day — Every part of Velarium follows trauma-informed design principles: • Soft motion and slow transitions • Permission-style language ("you might let your shoulders soften") instead of commands • No timers chasing you through exercises • Reduce Motion fully respected • Gentle haptics, never sharp ones • You can always exit, never penalized for stopping early — Privacy by default — Velarium does not collect, transmit, or share any of your data. Your drawings, paintings, journal entries, music compositions, sleep playback history, and goals live only on your device. There are no servers, no analytics, no advertising SDKs, and no third-party trackers. The app works fully offline. Sleep tape narration uses Apple's on-device speech synthesizer, so even the spoken cues never leave your phone. For the highest voice quality, download a Premium voice in iOS Settings → Accessibility → Spoken Content → Voices; Velarium will use it automatically. — Built with care — Velarium ships zero third-party dependencies. Every drawing canvas, every breath of procedural ambience, every visual scene, every body-scan glow is rendered from scratch on your device with Apple's frameworks. There's nothing here you didn't already trust when you installed iOS. Made for anyone who needs a slower, gentler corner of the App Store.
