Key Improvements This Week 💁♂️
- Recurring task time block
- Auto-Complete for event participants
We've updated the system so that when you time block a repeating task, it automatically blocks future occurrences too. Plus, Google finally approved our Contact info access, so we've rolled out the event attendee auto-complete feature we built earlier. And... we squashed a ton of bugs 🥲
⭐This Week's Highlights
Recurring task time block 📆
Before this update, if you created a recurring event on your calendar, you couldn't manage it as a task. And if you created a recurring task, you had to add it to your calendar one by one every day. Now, you can create a repeating task and time block it. Manage your recurring events right from your to-do list!
Notes
- Changes to repeating tasks won't immediately show on your calendar; you'll need to refresh to see updates. We're working on improving this.
- The "This and After" option for changing time blocks isn't ready yet, but we'll improve and release it soon.
💎 Hidden Gems
Auto-Complete for event participants
When you add participants to a calendar event, their email addresses now auto-complete if their info is in your Google Contacts. We made this feature four weeks ago and were waiting for Google's approval—finally, it's here!
Improved Calendar Event Drag & Drop
Have you ever been surprised when a long event block moved up or down while trying to adjust it? It might seem like a small thing, but it’s an important part of the user experience. We've updated the calendar so that you can move events more smoothly and seamlessly. Now, when you adjust your plans, it’ll be a more comfortable and enjoyable experience.
🐛 Bug Fix
- Fixed an issue where tasks not included in a list weren't sorted by deadline correctly.
- Fixed the Apple login issue in the desktop app.
- Fixed various integration issues on the desktop app that didn't work correctly.
- Fixed an issue where events ending at 00:00 showed up on the next day's schedule.
- Solved a problem where completed tasks appeared as duplicates on the organizing page.
🚀 Upcoming
- After the major milestone of the Product Hunt launch, we plan to focus on improving existing features rather than adding new ones for a while.
- We'll share the next roadmap as soon as it's decided after discussions with the team.
💬 Behind the Scenes
- It’s been a week since our Product Hunt launch, and we’ve had a lot of new users checking out OFFLIGHT. We've received tons of interest, love, and some tough feedback. We’ve got a long way to go, but we are eager to crush these bugs and show you exciting improvements soon!
