Long-pressing an empty past day previously only ran the single configured quick-log action, so custom categories and the Symptoms system category could not be logged retrospectively on a day that had no entries yet. The one branch that did open the full log menu also dropped the tapped date, logging against today instead. Long-press now opens the full log menu (speed dial) targeting the tapped day, giving every category, built-in or user-defined, a retrospective logging path. Quick-log-on-tap for empty days is unchanged. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_013cQThXMdC9pWKCF1RQUqDn
Replaces the earlier long-press gesture change with a more discoverable fix that works from every entry point, including the "Log" button, which always defaults to today. The log screen now shows a tappable Date card (for new entries) that opens a date picker. Changing the date re-resolves any existing entry for that (date, category) pair, so switching to a day that already has an entry loads it for editing and a blank day starts a fresh entry. It never moves or duplicates data: saving always writes to the shown date. The date stays fixed when editing one specific existing entry by id (opened from the day sheet), where changing it would be ambiguous.

Summary
All categories, whether built-in or user-defined, can now be logged retrospectively for a past date.
Previously the log screen always recorded against the date it was opened with, and the main "Log" button always opens on today. So there was no way to open, say, a custom "Mood" category from the Log button and record it for last Tuesday. The date shown in the screen header was display-only.
Change
The log screen now shows a tappable Date card that opens a date picker, so the user can set the day they are logging for. This works from every entry point (the Log button, the speed dial, the day sheet), not just from a specific calendar day.
LogCategoryViewModel.kt— AddedsetDate(newDate), which re-resolves any existing entry for the new(date, category)pair: switching to a day that already has an entry loads it for editing, and a blank day starts a fresh entry. It never moves or duplicates data. Saving always writes to the currently shown date. Added acanEditDateflag, true only for new entries.LogCategoryScreen.kt— Added theDateSelectorCard(shown for new entries) and aDatePickerDialogWrappermirroring the one on the Log Period screen.changelog/unreleased/retrospective-category-logging.json— Added changelog fragment (minor).Notes
