+## What's new in v1.1.0
 
 ### Clickable notifications
-Notifications are now interactive — tap to act, not just read:
+Tapping a limit warning or reset notification opens the main window. Tapping an update notification opens the update sheet directly — no need to manually click the menubar icon.
 
-- **Limit warnings & resets** (80%, 95%, reset) — tapping the notification opens the main ClaudeChecker window so you can see your current usage at a glance
-- **Update available** — tapping the notification opens the main window with the update sheet already showing, so you can install in one click
+### Update indicator in menubar
+When an update is available, the menubar shows **↑ Update** alongside your usage percentages so you know at a glance without opening the app.
 
-Previously notifications were display-only and required manually clicking the menubar icon to take action. This removes that friction.
+### Release notes render correctly
+The update banner and update sheet now render markdown formatting — headers, **bold text**, and bullet points display properly.
+
+### Update notification improved
+The update popup now reads **"Tap to view release notes & update now!"** making it clear you can read what changed before installing.
+
+### Main window always opens on click
+Closing the app while Settings was open would cause the next click to reopen straight to Settings. The app now always returns to the main window.
