We've made a big update to our "Only You" calendar feature! Now, you can set up several "Only You" calendars for various activities like fitness routines, surprise dates, or personal errands. These calendars stay completely private and encrypted, so you can boost your productivity without compromising your personal privacy in your shared calendar.

The process of importing events from an existing calendar has been optimised. Previously, recurring events were imported as individual instances. We've rectified this, and they will now correctly import as recurring events in OurCal.
We've squashed a stubborn bug that was hindering certain events from being displayed in OurCal widgets and the keyboard extension. Now, all events should appear seamlessly.
We've made a slight tweak to our system. Now, when you delete a calendar or event, you're unable to tap on the update message, because it doesn't lead anywhere. This helps avoid any confusion.
Event Threads have been upgraded to help you stay on top of your messages. Status indicators show when your message is dispatched and when it's been viewed by others in your group.

It's all in the detail, and today, you're getting lots of small but mighty fixes!
OurCal notifications now stay put in your notification centre until you decide to dismiss them, instead of clearing when you open the app. No more disappearing notifications!
If you're using an older version of OurCal, we'll let you know with a handy badge on "Install."
We've squashed some pesky bugs and made message delivery even smoother.
iOS only: Tapping on an event tomorrow in the Up Next Widget now takes you directly to your calendar for the next day.

Event threads have been redesigned to enhance communication about an event. All event details are now displayed in a clear, organised header and everything is available on one screen. Tap info to edit the event. Sending messages remains familiar.

Introducing the “What’s New” blog. Here, we’ll share release notes every time we update OurCal, so you'll always be aware of what’s changed — from minor bug fixes to major updates.
To make sure you have the most up-to-date experience when using OurCal, we've added a section in “Settings” where you can check to see if you have the latest app version installed.
You’ll receive a notification whenever you update to a new version of OurCal. Or, if you're using an old version of the app and need to install an update, we’ll let you know.
If you prefer not to receive these alerts, no problem, you can easily disable them in “Settings” under “Notifications” — simply turn off “App Updates Available”.
This release also includes simplifications to our "Settings" screen, now with a link taking you directly to the "What's New" blog.
