🆕 Sync OurCal events to your external calendars

OurCal events can now sync out to any calendar you already own, like your work Google calendar, iCloud, or Exchange. Changes in OurCal flow automatically to the external calendar, so your availability is always up to date everywhere.

Set it up from the same Synced Calendars screen you already know. The new sync form lets you pick an OurCal calendar as the source and any device calendar as the destination. Choose to include member names in the synced event notes, filter to only sync events for specific members, and toggle "upcoming events only" to keep things focused on what's ahead.

Combined with inbound sync, OurCal now works both ways: bring external calendars in, and push OurCal events out. Currently available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac, with Android coming soon.

Fixes & Improvements

• Event reminder notifications now play a sound instead of arriving silently

A steadier, tidier OurCal. This update makes editing quicker to reach and fixes a few event bugs.

Fixes & Improvements

• Editing an event is quicker to reach, with a clearer menu that puts Edit Event and Add Note in one place.
• OurCal now lets you know about a new version as soon as it's ready, rather than waiting for your next visit.
• Everything stays smoother and more responsive while your calendars sync.
• Fixed an issue where changing an event's end time could also move its start.
• Fixed duplicating an all-day event so the copy stays on a single day.
• Fixed a rare crash that could happen after certain event updates.

Fixes & Improvements

• Significantly faster app launch, with nearly 3 seconds of work moved off the main thread so the entire app is responsive sooner
• The app is now smoother across the board, with message processing, decryption, calendar sync, and background services no longer competing with the interface for resources
• Fixed the calendar freezing briefly during a sync pass, especially for synced calendars with recurring events
• Fixed the app freezing when scrolling the calendar at larger text sizes on iOS 26

Fixes & Improvements

• Fixed synced all-day events generating phantom "event changed" messages in chat on every sync pass

🆕 "Today" stays fresh across midnight

Leave OurCal open overnight and the calendar now rolls over at midnight automatically. The today marker, labels, and agenda all update in place. If you were viewing today, the selection advances with you. If you were looking at a specific future date, your selection stays put.

🆕 Notes on synced events

Synced calendar events with notes now show them in a read-only viewer. Tap to expand past the inline preview, just like native events.

🆕 Edit menu

The toolbar edit button now opens a menu offering "Edit Event" and "Add Note" or "Edit Note", so you can jump straight to whichever you need.

Now on Android too

• Map previews on event details
• Edit event now warns about unsaved changes before discarding
• Channel update event titles now update live when an event is renamed
• Scrollable metadata strip on group chat
• Contacting support now pre-fills your device and app info so we can help faster

Fixes & Improvements

• After editing an event's date, the calendar now scrolls to and selects the new date
• Fixed recurring event chat diffs showing the wrong title, wrong previous date, or stale occurrence dates
• Fixed spurious "event changed" messages appearing in chat from synced calendar sync churn
• Fixed a flood of "created event" messages when migrating a synced calendar
• Fixed push notifications sometimes falling back to generic text on channel updates
• Fixed event timezone being silently reset by push notification processing
• Fixed event notes not updating via push when the app was closed
• Fixed false-positive error reports from synced calendar updates

🆕 Event notes & checklists

Add rich notes and checklists to any event, with bold, italic, bullets, links, and more in a full-screen editor. Tick off checklist items right from the event detail screen without opening the editor, and your group sees every change in chat. Repeating events get full support too, with the choice to update one occurrence or all. Perfect for things like weekly shopping lists that change each week.

Two of our most requested features: notes for every event and checklists, shipped together.

🆕 Event updates and chat for synced events

Synced calendar events now get the full OurCal treatment. When a synced event is created, updated, or cancelled, your group sees it automatically in the chat, just like native OurCal events. And everyone can reply and react in the event thread. No more second-class events.

Currently available for syncs set up on iOS, with support for all calendar providers except Exchange. All versions of OurCal, including Android and Mac, can see, reply to, and benefit from these synced event threads.

🆕 Recurring event carousel

Swipe between occurrences of a recurring event right on the detail screen. On iOS and iPadOS, swipe left and right with a peek at the next card. On Mac, use the toolbar arrows. Tapping a chat update or push notification now lands on the exact occurrence that was changed.

Reconnect or move a synced calendar

Previously, when you reinstalled the app or got a new phone, your synced calendars wouldn't carry over to your new device and would remain stuck, not syncing. Now you can reconnect or move a sync to your current device in place, keeping your sync, group, and all conversations intact. OurCal also proactively flags syncs that have stopped updating, so you'll know before your group's calendar goes stale.

Fixes & Improvements

• Push notifications now more reliably show event names and richer detail instead of fallback text
• Changing an event's start time now preserves the duration. The end moves with it, matching Apple and Google Calendar
• Cancelling an event on iOS now keeps the agenda sheet open so you can see the cancelled state
• Fixed multi-day event bars sometimes disappearing from the calendar when other events expanded
• Fixed cancelled event notifications landing on a dead end instead of the cancelled card

Land on your event after creating it

After saving a new event, OurCal now takes you straight to the event detail screen — with the agenda sheet underneath and the calendar scrolled to the right day. No more hunting for the event you just created.

Other Fixes & Improvements

• Fixed synced calendars showing "Never synced" on first setup until restarting the app
