What's new

Version 1.0.2 25 October 2026

New

• A thing placed on a day with no time now takes up the whole day Drop it on the name of a day or in "All day": it is planned for that day, or marked as done that day if the day has passed, once you confirm. A thing planned with no time now appears in "All day" rather than at 9 am, and "Choose the day…" leaves the time open.
• A sample calendar until yours is connected Until your calendar is connected, the hours show a sample calendar, in grey, so you can see how the things to plan fit in. The “Connect your calendar” card says so; once connected, your own calendar takes its place.
• Drop something on a day, without a time: it's planned for the whole day Dragged onto a day's name or into “All day”, something to do is planned for that day, shown as a cloud above the hours; on a past day, it's marked as done that day. And while the question is asked, its shadow stays where it's going.
• On a tablet, move or lengthen an event with your finger Press and hold an event of your calendar, then drag it to another time or day: it keeps its length. Press and hold near its bottom to make it longer or shorter. “Undo” puts it back, and an event that repeats first asks whether you mean this one only or the following ones too.
• On a tablet, put a thing on the calendar with your finger Press and hold its card, then drag it to the time you want, in the day or the week: where it will land shows as a dotted outline, with the day and the time. An appointment moves the same way in the calendar, or goes back to the things to fit in; a thing done can be moved to another day. What is already in the calendar only moves once you confirm, and on a day that has gone by, the app offers to note the thing as done.
• On a tablet, the calendar and the things to fit in side by side The app opens on the week, with the things to fit in on its right, or underneath when the tablet is held upright. Touching a thing in the calendar unfolds its card alongside, without leaving the week. The tabs are down the side, Settings at the bottom; at the top, the “+” button and the Day, Week, Month and Year views. A thing's page, “Add” and an event open in a window, with the calendar still in sight around it. The year reads at a glance: one line per thing, across twelve months.

Improvements

• Placing a thing in the week: the question says what changes and when it comes back The bubble that follows ends with the same sentence, or says "It won't come round again: it was just once." for a one-off thing that is done. While the question is open, the spot where the thing will land stays marked.
• When you drag a thing onto the week, a single label beside your finger shows it all Under your finger there is only the thing's icon; beside it, the label gives its title, the day and time in large type, then what will happen when you let go, and it always stays on screen.
• When you drag a thing onto the week, a single bubble says it all Its name, the day and time it will land on, and what that will do, next to its icon. The two bubbles before sometimes overlapped.
• The message at the bottom of the screen now only offers “Undo” It goes by quickly, so a button there was easy to miss. “Not done” is on the thing itself, and an appointment left in the calendar is deleted like any other event.
• The two icons of “The right moment” explain themselves right beside them Clicking the clock of late things or the double arrow opens a small bubble next to the icon, instead of a message at the bottom of the window.
• An appointment or scheduled thing counts as done once its time has passed Previously, this only happened the next day. Placing a thing in the hours of the week always asks you first; taking it out of the calendar no longer asks anything.
• “Choose the day…” asks before saving the time The hour you tap brings up the same question as in the calendar, with the next time: “Plan” saves it, “Cancel” lets you pick another.
• On a tablet, an event that can't be moved says why A long press on an event from a calendar TimeAcappella only reads says where to change it; on an all-day or multi-day event, that it's changed in its window.
• After each change in the calendar, the app tells you when the thing comes round again Booking an appointment, planning something, moving it or changing when it was done: the question and then the message say “Then around …” or “Next time around …”, and “It won't come round again” for something done just once. The questions also say what changes: “Move the appointment …?”, “Change when … was done?”.
• Your appointments are kept in your notebook too Even when filed in Google Calendar or iCloud, each appointment also stays in TimeAcappella: once it's past, it stays in the calendar as your home's history, and its copy follows when you move it. If you change “My calendar”, a window tells you what stays where.
• Your devices now send each other only what changed Updating is faster, even with a well-filled notebook. And if a device is about to delete a lot of things at once, it asks you first: nothing leaves before you answer, and “Put them back” restores everything.
• Everything you can do with something has its own button as soon as you select it “Not done”, “Not this time”, “Cancel the appointment”, “Note the appointment…”: no need to look for them in a hidden menu any more; the card or line you select shows them, in the “To plan” list too.
• Your things are sorted into four tabs: Done, Time to act, Planned, Estimated Each tab says in one sentence what it holds. Selecting a thing in the calendar does not switch tab: the tab that holds it is outlined, and a strip tells you where it is. Placing something in the calendar asks you to confirm, since it gets a real date there, and already tells you when it will come back. What comes back has ↻ in front of how often; what happens only once has “Once” next to its title.
• In the calendar, what is planned is drawn as a cloud, and what is done is solid An appointment you have made or a task you have placed has the outline of a small cloud, in the colour of its category; something done is solid, with its tick. You can tell at a glance what is still to come, as soon as you drag something onto the week. The screen reader also says the day and time of what is planned.
• Something ticked by mistake can be unticked: “Not done” Drag its tick from the week onto the list on the right, or choose “Not done” on its line in “Done”: it leaves the calendar, and the thing is to do again. “Undo” puts it back.
• The app's texts have been reread from start to finish, in French and in English A few mistakes fixed, clearer explanations in the settings, and more accurate wording in English, such as “Overdue since” for something late.
• The Contacts screen no longer has an “Add” button next to “New contact” It looked like a way to add a contact. To plan something for someone close, use their card.
• The “Add” button is on the News screen too
• A phone held sideways keeps its height for your lists The tabs move to the left-hand side and the title gets smaller, at the top. The calendar still shows the week across the whole screen.
• In the calendar, the text of a short appointment or event is no longer cut off When the title and the time don't both fit, the time goes in front of the title (“08:30 Car service”), or is left out when the appointment starts on the hour, which the margin already shows. A title that is too long ends in “…”, always on a whole line. Screen readers still read out both the title and the time.
• Each plan lists everything it gives, including what the free version does In Settings › Plan, Solo and Family no longer say “Everything the free version does”: the line about your things to plan, their reminders and your calendar is written out, and the plans compare line by line.
• With the app in English, help now opens the guide in English It used to open the frequently asked questions.

Fixes

• A thing done set back to “not done” no longer leaves its trace in the calendar Taken out of the hours or marked “Not done”, it didn't happen: its event goes with it. “Undo” puts it back.
• The example calendar no longer disappears as soon as you schedule your first thing It stays on screen until you create your first event, and the card only mentions it while it is there.
• In French, a colon or a question mark never starts a line any more, news articles included
• Placing something on a time that has already passed today asks whether it is done, instead of making an appointment in the past
• The screen reader says “done” for something done on a whole day
• When someone ticks “Done” on the page of their link, the calendar shows it on the right day The thing is ticked on the day it was done, and the appointment it replaces is no longer ticked on its own date. If that appointment is in your calendar, the message offers to remove it.
• An abbreviated date at the end of a sentence no longer ends with two full stops A date written short, ending in a full stop like “Oct.”, no longer takes a second one when it ends the sentence.
• Backup also comes with the Solo plan, and the app now says so The messages offering to put your notebook on your other devices and keep it safe only mentioned the Family plan. They now say “Solo or Family”. Sharing still comes with Family.
• On a tablet held sideways, the tabs no longer disappear from the calendar Only a phone turned on its side switches to the week across the whole screen, without the tabs, to leave room for the hours. A tablet keeps its tabs and its Day, Month and Year views either way up.
