Previous Update Log

Update 20260527 Your Hours Your Calendar: Set the calendar to match your day — choose the hours you see and the hours you work in Preferences. Calendar modals now have a clean Event | Task toggle, and two-calendar users can pick which provider a new task syncs with. Plus calendar edits show up instantly, the outliner handles backspace correctly on indented blank lines, and keyboard sorting your inbox no longer jumps you to a different bucket.

Update 20260607 All Your Calendars and a Coach on Focus: Bring every Google calendar (within an account) into view, not just one — pick which to include, and see commitments from elsewhere as muted, read-only blocks you can plan around. Your Focus screen now has an always-on Flow Coach with time-aware guidance and an Ask popover that answers by text or voice without leaving the work. Plus weekend repeating tasks, rituals that hide steps you don’t use, and a smoother WRAP.

Update 20260616 A Menu-Bar Timer and a Faster Start: Control your flow timer right from the menu bar on Mac — start, see, and switch tasks without ever opening the full app. Paste a markdown list and watch it become a structured task outline, jump to the new Search ⌘K button in the sidebar, and get a guided Getting Started video right in Focus mode. Plus a far easier desktop download, smarter desktop notifications,and a gold-star celebration when you finish your daily highlight.

Update 20260617 — Suggest, From Anywhere: You have great ideas - and we’d love to hear ‘em. When there are problems or even annoyances, I’d like to know about them! So there’s now a Suggest button in the sidebar — and a “Suggest…” command in ⌘K — that opens a single-box dialog to tell us anything, from any screen: an idea, a frustration, a missing piece. It takes a few seconds, lands straight with the team, and we read every one. Plus a fix so Shift-Tab no longer hiccups when outdenting in the outliner.

Update 20260707 Why Do I Have So Many Tasks and Where Did All My Time Go: Your outline now knows the difference between a task, a project, a folder, and a note — so you never have to decide up front. Capture freely, then recognize what something is with one reversible action, and your Today list finally holds only things you can actually do. Meanwhile Show Me My Time paints your real, tracked time right onto the plan calendar so the day shows itself as-lived, and the new Cal view (⌘5) gives your calendar a first-class home with drag-to-edit timer sessions. Plus fixes for duplicate Outlook calendar entries and the Outlook admin-approval loop, and a noticeably faster outliner.

Update 20260709 Think With Less Friction: The outliner is where you hold the nitty-gritty and see the big picture — and now there’s less between you and the thought. Rearrange anything with just your keyboard, file a task under any parent in your whole outline (even one that’s off-screen or in another tree), and drop a note on any line with Shift+Enter. The new Filter (⌘⇧F) narrows your outline to a slice you can keep working inside — reorganizing and refining, not just reading — and every complete, cancel, and move is now one ⌘Z away. This is the outliner as a true thinking surface: fluid to shape, and layered with actionable lenses that surface what matters right now.
