Fixes inthe email verification flow when sending a second code, ourcal.link joining when already a member of that group, some input placeholders overflowing onto two lines, and the ability to delete repeat events without Plus.
It’s vitally important that you get set up on OurCal correctly to make the most of all our features.
To help everyone do so, we’re introducing reminders that will help you complete key setup actions so that you’re set up to use OurCal confidently in your everyday life.
For example, we will encourage you to complete tasks like scheduling events and adding a login method to ensure you never lose access to your account when changing devices.
To turn these off just open Settings, tap “Notifications”, and toggle off “Setup Reminders”.

When deleting an event in the app, we confirm deletion with a notification. This notification deep links to the group, where you can discuss plans if needed.

Further Improvements to Emoji Search
Choosing emojis for your events just got easier with improvements to search.
Events Default to Group Emoji
Now, the default emoji for your events will match your group's emoji. For custom calendars it will default to the custom calendar’s emoji. For member calendars it wild default to the group’s emoji.
Our emoji picker for your events, calendars, and group emojis has been given a major tune up.
The search engine has been completely rewritten to make finding the emoji you're after far faster. The picker now opens at a new "Frequently Used" tab letting you quickly select frequently used emojis. And finally, it also always opens with the keyboard showing so you can quickly start searching straight away.
Emoji picking has never been so fast.
Faster install to group joins
A huge part of what makes OurCal different is how easy it is to invite friends, family, and colleagues to your groups with just a link.
We've made this even faster for new referred users by displaying a dynamic "Join Group" tutorial when they first open the app.
