Ready for iPhone Duo

Open it up. Your week and your conversation, side by side.

We've had early access to iPhone Duo, and OurCal is ready for it. Open it up and the selected day's agenda appears as a column beside the calendar, so you can see your week and your conversation at the same time. Content stays clear of the fold, and the agenda sheet follows how far the device is open.

Two iPhone Duo devices closed, side by side. Left: the OurCal calendar for August 2027 on the outer display. Right: the New School Shoes event open with a map preview and the chat thread below.
Closed, it's a compact iPhone with everything OurCal does.

Closed, it's a compact iPhone with everything OurCal does. Every iPhone now works in landscape too. When there's room, the month title moves beside your avatar to show an extra week.

Redesigned for iPad

An iPad in landscape showing the OurCal calendar for August 2027 with the agenda column beside it. The New School Shoes event is open in the column with a map preview and the Wilson Family chat thread, and the view mode, filter, and search buttons sit alongside.
Redesigned for iPad. The same wide-screen layout, everywhere.

The iPhone Duo work drove a complete rethink of OurCal on wide screens, and iPad gets all of it. The agenda column sits beside the calendar, with view mode, filter, and search buttons alongside. The agenda sheet rests at half height, lined up with a week row. Search has a proper title and close button. And after a rotation, the calendar keeps the same top week with no wobble.

Week numbers and App Settings

Two iPhones side by side showing the same OurCal calendar view. Left: week numbers on, shown in a narrow column at the left with this week's number tinted blue. Right: event emojis toggled off, so events show titles only.
Week numbers on. Emojis off. Your calendar, your call.

Each week row now shows its number in a narrow column at the left, with this week's tinted. On by default where your device calendar uses ISO weeks, which covers most of Europe.

Toggle it in the new App Settings screen, which replaces the App Version row. You'll also find a switch for event emojis, plus the app version and any available update.
