What's new on Android
Keep up to date with the latest features and improvements we're shipping to Android.
A new look for signing in
Improvements3
- Signing into Daybridge has a brand new look
- Improved haptic feedback across the app
- Improvements to speed, performance and event sync reliability
Fixes3
- An event's title is no longer lost when saving changes
- The paw and voting icons are back in the icon picker
- Timeline markers are the right size, and dimmed once they're in the past
Pinch to zoom the timeline
Pinch the timeline to set how tall an hour is. Spread it out and events grow, showing more of their details. Pinch it back in and more of the day fits on screen at once.
Improvements4
- Timeline events show more information at once
- The People and Settings tabs make better use of larger screens
- A launcher shortcut for searching events
- Faster event loading in the Home tab
Fixes5
- Repeating events on the 31st, or on 29 February, no longer vanish from later dates
- Links in event descriptions open properly again
- Sync no longer gets stuck and in need of a resync
- The active tab no longer resets when folding or unfolding a device
- Profile photos load in the people widget
iCloud and Fastmail event editing
The calendars that arrived read-only two weeks ago now work the way your Google calendars do: create, reschedule, edit and delete, repeats included.
Improvements4
- Daybridge Plus is now available as a discounted annual plan
- Repeating events on iCloud and Fastmail calendars can be changed just this once, from here onwards, or every time they happen
- Calendars you can only read are marked as such, so an edit can't bounce back
- Changes reach your other devices faster
Fixes1
- Time zone names no longer truncate in the event details panel
iCloud and Fastmail calendars
Daybridge now speaks CalDAV. Connect an iCloud or Fastmail account and your calendars arrive alongside everything else, with the same colours, the same filters and the same week.
Improvements3
- Assign an area to a connected account's events as you connect it
- Connected accounts can be renamed from Settings
- Connect iCloud with an app-specific password, or Fastmail with a single sign-in
Fixes1
- Calendars with no colour set fall back to their area's hue
Tab-scoped widgets
Widgets can follow a single tab rather than your whole calendar, so the home screen can show work while the lock screen shows everything.
Improvements3
- Mark a task complete while looking at its details
- A faster first sync after signing in, especially with many calendars
- Clearer error messages when something goes wrong
Fixes1
- Widgets no longer show repeating events from disabled calendars
Duplicate a tab
Improvements2
- Duplicate any tab, then adjust the copy
- A clearer, simpler sign-up
Fixes2
- Events with no title no longer appear blank in widgets, or as 'Daybridge' in notifications
- Task checkboxes are easier to see in the list
Timeline events, redesigned
Mobile timeline events now match web and desktop, and carry more of what an event is without being opened.
Improvements5
- Blocked-out time takes a striped background
- Markers take a more compact shape
- Past events and completed tasks are more clearly dimmed
- An indicator next to days holding events your filters have hidden
- New icons for areas, events and tags, including bird, guitar, rollercoaster, thread, walking and washing machine
Fixes4
- Event widgets show your events again rather than nothing
- Events ending after 11pm are no longer cut short, or missing entirely
- Notifications that could fail to arrive now arrive
- Unticking every event type in a tab's filters now sticks
Drag, drop and resize on the timeline
The timeline became something you handle directly: press to preview a new event, drag it to another day, and pull its edges to change when it runs.
Improvements7
- Tap, hold and drag to preview an event before you create it
- Drag events between days to reschedule them
- Press and hold an event to reveal handles, then drag its top or bottom edge
- Start and end times appear live as you drag
- Up to five days side by side on larger screens
- Tasks default to ten minutes
- Your own time zones are pinned to the top when choosing one for an event
Fixes3
- A new event no longer disappears when switched from all-day to a set time
- Timeline events snap to 15 minutes after a drag
- Event notifications open the event when tapped
Side-by-side days, and a people widget
The timeline can show more than one day at a time on iOS, and Android has a new home screen widget for the people you contact most.
Improvements4
- A people widget, showing your contacts and their local time
- Smoother swiping and scrolling through events
- A loading indicator while the app syncs for the first time
- New tabs take a default name and icon from their layout
Fixes2
- The date and current time indicator keep up after the app has been left open

Advanced monthly repeats
Repeating events picked up the monthly rules that were missing, like the third Thursday of the month, or the last working day.
Improvements3
- The time zone picker covers more cities, plus UTC and fixed offsets like UTC+05:00
- Cal.com call links on events
- Completed tasks are dimmed in the list
Fixes2
- Quick Add no longer gets stuck when a suggested event doesn't load
- Past errors no longer reappear in Quick Add
Quick Add
Quick Add reads a sentence and builds the event. Times, places, repeats and the right area, without touching a single field.
It knows where things belong
A dentist appointment lands in Personal and a design review lands in Work, following the areas you already use.
Improvements5
- Quick Add understands seven languages at launch
- Ask for a follow-up change to adjust the suggested event
- See a map for any event that picked up a place
- Quick Add runs on Daybridge's own infrastructure, using open-weight models, so your calendar isn't sent to a third-party AI provider
- Create from a tap on empty timeline space
Fixes2
- Locations with commas no longer split into two places
- The keyboard no longer covers the suggestion row on smaller screens
Filters on iOS and Android
Filters arrived on mobile and then kept growing: start from areas, and narrow by almost anything else an event carries.
Improvements4
- Filter by repeat, call link or whether an event is all-day
- Filter by calendar, account, location, tag or event type
- Filter by the people attending
- A time zones widget, showing the time in every city you've saved
Fixes3
- Tab area filters set on web or desktop now show correctly on mobile
- One-off all-day events no longer spill onto the following day in the list

- A changelog link in settings
Fixes3

Invitations and activity, together
The Updates tab now holds one list instead of two, with invitations and activity in the order they happened.
Improvements4

- Related icons sit next to each other in the icon picker
- Home screen widgets, starting with today's upcoming events and a shortcut into adding a new one
- A Join call button on notifications for events with a call link
Fixes1
- Widgets no longer crash on older Android versions
Duplicate an event, name a time zone
Improvements2
- Duplicate any standalone event
- Give a saved time zone its own name and icon
Fixes1
- Calendar accounts are sorted properly when creating or editing an event
Tabs on iOS and Android
The tabs you built on web and desktop came to mobile, as a top bar you swipe between: layout, timeline hours, areas and filters, each saved to its own tab.
Fixes4
- Adding a time zone no longer crashes the app
- Subscription details appear in settings while subscribed
- Renaming a tab now saves
- Location details appear for events in the Home tab
Local-first sync and offline support
Daybridge now keeps your calendar on your device. Changes save the moment you make them, work with no connection at all, and appear on your other devices as soon as there is one.
Instant, then everywhere
Adding, editing and deleting events, calendars, areas and everything else saves the moment you do it, then reaches your other devices on its own.
Improvements4

Event search
Search across everything in your calendar, from the Home tab on mobile and from anywhere on web and desktop.
Improvements2
