What’s new
What we’ve shipped, newest first. Founding members get a say in what comes next.
- Editing a task is shorter: an earlier nudge (“Also remind me”) and On my calendar moved under More options, whose line says when either is set (“Also 1 hour before”, “Not on calendar”). A task with a reminder now fits on one phone screen, Save included.
- Calendar's Show menu has a Tasks switch: turn it off and the calendar is just your meetings (and dates or habits, if you show them), with Schedule's task list hidden too. On a computer, Schedule's grid is easier to read (clear lines between days, a stronger one where each week starts, weekends faintly shaded), and scrolling down over it carries on to the bottom of the page instead of stopping at the calendar's end.
- Schedule, polished: short blocks show their name instead of cutting it to “Q…” beside the time (the time is on hover and tap), and a block too short for two lines is one tidy line. An event you count as free is a quiet outline with a muted name, so it no longer needs “Free ·” on it and your meetings stand out. The dashed line down each day's free time is gone (its small “2h free” stays), and on a computer the day headers no longer carry a cut-off “12h 45m op…”: they speak up only for a double-booking or a day that's over.
- Schedule draws a packed morning cleanly: a short meeting right before another (a 15-minute drop-off at 7:15, then something at 7:30) stays in its own slot as one small line instead of spilling over the next, and an event you count as free that starts with a meeting now sits beside it with its name showing, instead of as a thin unlabeled bar that pushed the meeting aside.
- A calmer look: a late task says when it was due (“Due Oct 26”, or “Yesterday”) in a soft warm tone, instead of a red count of days that grows each morning (hover for how late). “High” sits quietly beside its red-ringed checkbox, people due a catch-up get a soft warm line instead of bold orange, and Talked is a quiet button, so the yellow is left for what needs you. On a computer, Home no longer repeats “9 overdue” under “9 things are waiting on you”; the counts show when there's more than one to tell apart. A task's details say “Due Oct 26” (no more “Due · Due Oct 26”), with High in plain text there too.
- Week is easier to take in: a busy day shows every meeting but only its first four tasks (“+8 more tasks” opens the rest), so one full day no longer stretches the whole week down the page, and the list under it that repeated the day is gone. Tap a day's name to open it in Schedule. On a phone, each day shows its meetings on a thin line beside its name with the counts (“3 meetings · 12 tasks”), so the shape of the week reads at a glance.
- Small tidy-ups: on Schedule, the hour beside the red time-now marker steps aside instead of showing half-covered under it, and Home's schedule says “Free today” beside the open times instead of “Free all day” next to a range of hours, and on People the line under a name with Talked beside it wraps to a second line instead of being cut off.
- Every calendar view's week runs Monday to Sunday: Week now shows this Monday-to-Sunday week (it used to start from today), matching Schedule's row of days and Month. Month also shows only the weeks the month needs (no extra row of next month's dates).
- Your AI assistant can work with checklists (add items, check them off, take them off, or add a task with its checklist) and can look at a whole day at once: its meetings, every task due that day (timed or not, including repeating ones that land on it), and that day’s habits, for any date, so planning your day with it is quicker and misses nothing.
- Your AI assistant can now check things off for you (a repeating task moves to its next day, as when you do it) and attach files to your tasks: a photo, PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint or text file, from a link (a Google Drive or Dropbox share link works) or the file itself. They show on the task like any you add.
- Opening is lighter again: dates in long lists are worked out once and reused, so Home and Board have less to do as they appear.
- Week on a phone is easier to scan: each meeting is one line, its time in a column and its name beside it; day headers are tighter; and an empty day is just its name (dimmed, with its +) instead of a “Nothing yet” line. A typical week fits on one screen.
- Fewer things to mis-tap: on a phone, Home’s schedule no longer has a small × on every meeting beside Join (Count as free time is in the meeting’s Options; on a computer the × still shows on hover), and saving a meeting’s guests to People is a quiet icon instead of a Save button on every row.
- A meeting’s details are shorter: no “Zoom” place under the Join on Zoom button, no organizer line repeating someone already under People, and Count as free time and Never flag this meeting folded under Options (open on their own when one is on).
- Schedule shows where at a glance: a meeting with room for a second line says its place next to the time (“11 AM–12 PM · Conference Room B”), and a day with no tasks is one quiet line under the calendar instead of an empty card.
- Moving events is steadier: an event you drag to a new time stays there, instead of jumping back when the calendar refreshes before your calendar has caught up, and a drag the phone interrupts (say, as a scroll) leaves the event where it was instead of moving it.
- Schedule is easier to move around in: tapping or scrolling through free time no longer opens “Put a task at…” (only the small “free” label does), and pressing and holding an empty time (double-clicking on a Mac) starts a new event right there. The calendar also picks up changes from your iPhone’s calendars sooner when you open it.
- On the calendar, a habit you’ve checked in for the day leaves the day’s list, as a checked-off task does (Habits keeps the record and can take a check-in back).
- Times read right when they’ve already gone: “Monday at 3pm” said on a Monday evening is next Monday (it was landing on Tuesday), and “today at 3pm” or “Nov 9 at 3pm” said after 3 stays on today instead of moving to tomorrow. With no day, a time that’s passed still means tomorrow’s.
- Setup’s examples use the areas you just picked, so trying one never files it somewhere you don’t have.
- Things to discuss hold more: a title, then details over a few lines (background, what you want out of it, numbers to have handy) and, if you use Notes, a note with more. Tap one to change it.
- People puts who needs you first. To discuss, at the top, holds everyone with things waiting to bring up (whoever you’re meeting soonest first, each with when), and a yellow flag with the count marks them wherever they’re listed. Meeting soon follows, for the others you’re meeting today or in the next two days.
- Notifications settings are shorter and easier to scan: switches line up at the right edge as in the phone’s Settings, each one says what it does right under it, and the briefing email’s section order is folded away until you tap Change the email’s order.
- A thing to discuss can point to a note with the detail: the note’s title shows under it, and tapping it opens the note. Your assistant sets the link, and its replies about a person never shorten anything; something too long is turned away when it’s saved, saying the limit, instead of being cut.
- Filtered to an area (Work, say), tasks no longer each say “Work”: every one is in it. A list within it (“Clients”) still shows.
- Board tidied: in Week, “+3 from earlier” sits under Today instead of running into Tuesday, and in Area each card leaves out the area its column already names (just its list, if it’s in one).
- Search results get straight to it: no Back button beside the search box’s own ✕ or Cancel, and no Sort menu (results are already grouped by when they’re due); on a phone they start right under the search bar. An open note on a phone keeps back, pin and Trash in the top bar, so the note starts higher.
- To discuss, on a person’s page: a short list of things to bring up with them next time. Add one as it comes up and check it off once you’ve talked it through. Your AI assistant keeps the same list, so it can add what comes up and, after your meeting, check off what you covered.
- Important dates say less: birthdays and anniversaries no longer add “Every year” under each one (they always are); a one-off date still shows its date.
- A person’s page is tidier: call, text and email sit beside their name, as in Contacts, and the line under the name no longer repeats how often you keep in touch (it’s right below). On a phone, scrolling down no longer puts their name over the back button.
- Your AI assistant can use People (Pro): ask “what’s open with Dana before our call?” and it sees what you’ve saved about her, what’s open, when you last talked and your meetings coming up. It can tell you who’s due to hear from you, save someone, and mark that you talked or add something to remember (it never deletes anyone). It gets phone numbers and emails only while Share phone numbers and emails is on, in Connectors → AI assistant.
- Calendar on an iPad or a smaller window: your areas are never cut off. When the calendar’s title line is too narrow for them, they move to their own line under the dates, and the + box beside them gives up room before they do.
- Less said twice: under the overdue line on Home, each late task says just how late (“14 days”), and on a computer, Archive and Trash are one entry in the sidebar with a switch between them. An empty Trash just says it’s empty.
- Tidier tops: on a phone, Calendar’s title is just the date (“Nov 9”), so it’s never cut off, and People has one Add button (Choose from Contacts is inside it) instead of two. On a computer, the Notes reorder button lines up with the area chips.
- The + box stops showing its examples (“Call Mike Tuesday at 2…”) once you’ve captured a few things on that device, so it’s just the box.
- Fixed on a phone: scrolling Week (and other views with their title up top) no longer shows events through the title or the pinned day name; both are solid now.
- Calendar’s slim header now goes with every view on a computer, not just Schedule: Month, Week and Coming up have the same compact title row, so Month shows all your area filters. This year’s months read just “November”.
- On a computer, Board’s When / Week / Area sits beside its title, so the columns start a row higher. On a day with no meetings, Home’s schedule says “Free all day” with your hours, instead of saying “No meetings today” a second time.
- Board gets straight to your tasks on a phone: how it’s arranged (by when, week or area) is the ⋯ in the top bar, and its columns are one slim row of pills (Today 7 · Tomorrow · Next 7 · Later · Ideas). Each card already says if it’s overdue, so the extra heading row is gone.
- Every view starts higher on a phone: Board, People, Notes, Habits, Dates and Calendar’s Month and Week put their title and buttons (New note, Add someone, ⋯) up in the top bar instead of a row of their own. On Board the title is the area you’re looking at (“All areas ⌄”, tap to pick another). Month and Week move by a swipe sideways, and Today appears whenever you’ve moved away.
- A quieter top bar everywhere: just the r mark, without the word “myrecall” beside it, so the bar has room for what you’re looking at. Tap it for Home, as before.
- More of your day on a phone: Calendar’s Schedule puts the day’s name, ⋯ and Today up in the top bar (Today only when you’re on another day), the row of days drops its dots, and what’s all day shares one slim line, so the schedule starts about an hour’s worth higher.
- Snappier everywhere, most of all on a phone: opening a task or meeting, closing it, checking something off and switching tabs each take about half the time they did, and the app has less to do as it opens.
- Right after MyRecall updates, an app left open loads the new version by itself the moment it needs to, instead of stopping on “Something went wrong”.
- MyRecall Pro in the Mac app: Account → Get MyRecall Pro buys it through the App Store with your Apple ID, as on iPhone, and Restore purchases brings back one you already have. Pro bought in either app is Pro in both. Inside the apps, Account no longer offers to install the app.
- Calendars stay in step between your iPhone, iPad and Mac: an event you add or delete (in Calendar, Outlook or anywhere that syncs to them) shows the same in MyRecall on each, without doubles. Pull down to refresh brings the calendar up to date as well, coming back to the window refreshes it, and a refresh that doesn’t get through tries again within a minute.
- On a phone, Calendar’s pinned row of days is solid, so nothing scrolled under it shows through.
- On a phone, Calendar’s row of days stays pinned under the top bar on frosted glass as you scroll, with the day rolling on behind it. On a computer, Week’s day names stay pinned the same way.
- On a computer, the small arrow on the sidebar’s edge folds it to a slim row of icons (their names show on hover), giving the page the room; MyRecall remembers it on that device.
- Opening on a slow connection is quicker: if the network is slow to answer, the app opens from its last copy and catches up behind it.
- Week on a phone matches Schedule: each day edge to edge with its name pinned as you scroll through it, and events in their calendar’s color.
- More of the day on a computer: in Calendar, “Add a task, or ask…” moves into the top bar where search was (search is the magnifier), and the area filters join the dates, tools and views in one row, so the schedule starts higher. Each day’s all-day row shows two things before “N more”.
- Brighter all over. Dark mode is true black with white text and brighter greys (on an iPhone, black is off, so everything on it glows), light mode is crisper with black text, and calendar colors are vivid in both: titles and edges in the calendar’s color on a rich tint.
- Calendar reads at a glance on a phone: the title names the day you’re on (“Friday, Oct 30”), the row of days is the week Monday to Sunday (swipe it for the week before or after), the whole day shows edge to edge and opens an hour before now, with what’s past faded, the all-day row holds only what’s all day (the day’s tasks are in the list below), and Month, Week and Schedule are under ⋯.
- Double-bookings on Schedule are marked more quietly: a thin red edge and a small warning dot (tap it, as before, to call it fine or count one meeting as free).
- Events on Schedule are in their calendar’s color, a tinted block with the title in that color, so whose time it is shows at a glance (phones and computers).
- Calendar’s Schedule shows what time it is now: a red line across today with the time beside it (“10:28”), a faint one across the rest of the week, and the day always reaching far enough down to show it, even late in the evening. ‹ Today › now sit beside the dates instead of at the far right.
- More calendar: on a computer, Schedule runs to the bottom of the window with less space above it; on a phone, the calendar’s controls fit in one row (Month, Week, Schedule, then Fit my day as a wand, ⋯ and Today; on Schedule, the row of days and a swipe move between days).
- Calendar’s Schedule is calmer: free time is a faint “1h free” in the background, on phones too (stretches under half an hour aren’t drawn; the times show on hover, or tap it), an event beside a gap uses the width that’s free instead of a sliver, a task too narrow for its checkmark shows its words, each day’s all-day row shows its first item with “14 more” under it, and Calendar has one Event button (the capture bar’s appears once you type).
- Calendar’s Schedule glides on a computer and iPad: swipe sideways on a trackpad or the screen and the days slide smoothly, with momentum, settling on a day’s edge; the arrows glide one day at a time instead of jumping a whole week. Today’s column is wider than the rest, so the day you’re in is easiest to read.
- “AI assistant, Siri & email” in the account menu is now Connectors: everything MyRecall connects to, one card each (AI assistant, Email, and Apple Reminders in the iPhone app), each saying where it stands: Connected, Ready, On, Set up, or Needs attention when something’s wrong. Tap a card to open it; one is open at a time. Siri and Share → MyRecall are built into the iPhone app, so they no longer need a card.
- On the days the clocks change, Heads up (and the morning email) gives meetings their real time: a 2:30 PM clash on the Sunday clocks fall back no longer reads 3:30 PM, and Home's “does today fit” line counts the day right.
- A long “done” message (with Undo) stays inside the screen on every view, Calendar included, wrapping to a second line instead of running off both edges.
- Opening the app goes straight from the launch screen to your day: no more stand-in “Welcome back” page with grey placeholder rows for a moment first.
- Say “Hey Siri, remind me to…” and it still ends up in MyRecall: turn on Bring in “Hey Siri, remind me to…” under Add from anywhere (iPhone app). Siri saves those in Apple Reminders; each time MyRecall opens, they move in as tasks, with their day, time and repeat, and are checked off in Reminders so they don’t pile up there. Comes with the next iPhone app update.
- Adding something on a phone has one clear button: it says Save as soon as you type (and saves it, ready for the next thing), and Close when there’s nothing to save. It used to say Done, which closed the sheet without saving.
- A long message at the bottom of the screen (like dismissing an event with a long name) wraps inside the screen instead of running off both edges, and Undo always stays in reach.
- MyRecall for Mac’s menu bar calendar, the time left in the menu bar and the desktop widget now show exactly what the app’s calendar shows. They used to show the Mac’s own copy of your calendars, which could lag behind your iPhone and miss a meeting.
- A Support page at myrecall.me/support: signing in, subscriptions and restoring purchases, downloading or deleting your data, notifications and calendars, and how to reach us.
- Steadier: if a screen ever fails to draw, MyRecall shows Try again and Reload (and, if needed, a fresh start on this device) instead of a blank page, and a damaged copy saved on the device can no longer stop the app opening.
- Checked off a repeating task by mistake? Uncheck it in Done today (under On your plate) and it’s back on the day and time it was, with its completion taken off. Works for anything checked off from now on.
- Act on a reminder right from its notification on iPhone: press and hold it (or open its options in Notification Center, or on your watch) for Done, Remind me in 1 hour, or Tomorrow. It happens without opening the app.
- Checking off a task says which one: “Check Skylight Tasks” done. Next: Tomorrow.
- Counting an event as free time keeps it on Home’s Today’s schedule (quieter, marked Free), so you still see what’s happening; Schedule shrinks it to a strip at the side as before. To take one off Home, use the new Dismiss (×) on its row: it counts it as free time and hides it from Home, with Undo.
- Calendar opens filled in: your events show the moment the app opens, from this device’s copy, and refresh a second later (signing out clears it). Opening the app no longer waits on Heads up working out the week’s drive times, which could hold the calendar back for several seconds.
- MyRecall for Mac has its own desktop widget, Today, in medium, large and extra-large sizes: the date, what’s next and when you’re free, the rest of today’s schedule, and today’s tasks to check off right from the desktop. It reads your Mac’s calendars, so it’s up to date without your iPhone nearby (macOS 14 or later).
- An opened Anytime list on Calendar always has a way out: “Show less” stays at the bottom of a long list, the Anytime label becomes Close (it closes every opened list), and Esc does the same.
- The sidebar on a computer is narrower, so Calendar, Board and Home get the width.
- More room for the calendar on a computer: the Anytime row is one line per day (the first item, then “+3”), the week’s title is smaller, and scrolling the timeline no longer scrolls the page around it once it reaches the top or bottom. Opening “+3” now keeps the list in view instead of scrolling it away.
- Evenings look ahead: once today’s meetings are over (from 6 PM) or the day is done (9 PM), Home’s schedule shows Tomorrow, with its meetings and free time and today’s a tap away. On a phone, Calendar’s Schedule opens on tomorrow after 9 PM, and Fit my day stays out of a day that’s over. Heads up no longer says today is “over” at night just because no time is left in it.
- MyRecall opens faster: Home asks for everything it needs in one request instead of a dozen, and screens you open now and then (Plan the week, Import, Areas, Booking page) load when you first open them.
- Home opens more smoothly in the evening: the page no longer redrew itself from scratch when your day and the server’s were different dates, and lists that several parts of the page load at once are fetched once.
- Answer an invitation from MyRecall: open one you haven’t said yes to and tap Accept or decline. In the iPhone app it opens the iPhone’s own event view with Accept, Maybe and Decline; on a Mac it opens the event in Calendar. Your answer goes out from your calendar account, as from Calendar.
- An event moved to another calendar (in Calendar or the iPhone’s editor) can still be edited and deleted from MyRecall, instead of saying it isn’t on your iPhone any more, and an open event updates to the calendar it moved to.
- AI assistants can put a task under another as a step (a goal and its milestones), when adding it or after, and every task they get back says which task it’s a step of, so they can check it. An assistant that sends something MyRecall doesn’t take now gets an error saying so, instead of it being quietly skipped.
- Ended early, or running over: while a meeting is on, Home’s Up next card has Ended and +15 min, and its details have Ended now, +15 min and +30 min. The time it frees counts as free right away (in Home’s schedule, “You’re free now”, the widgets, watch and Mac menu bar), and running over keeps the rest of your day honest. Your calendar keeps the booking; “Back to 1:00 PM” or Undo puts it back.
- In the iPhone app, New event and Edit event open the iPhone’s own event editor, the same one Calendar uses, with the time already filled in: pick the calendar, add a location from Maps, alerts, repeat, invitees and travel time, or delete the event. What you save shows in MyRecall right away.
- Calendar on a computer starts higher and opens at the current hour: a mini capture bar sits at the end of the area tabs (what it reads opens just below it), Fit my day moved into the toolbar (the day headers already say double-booked, over or spare, with the details on hover), each day’s Anytime row shows two items before “+N more”, and the timeline fills the window and scrolls to now each time you open Calendar, come back to the app, or press Today. In a narrower window the toolbar shows icons so it stays one row.
- Dragging an event to a new time shows it there at once, keeps it in the calendar it’s in, and the iPhone and Mac apps now ask your calendar accounts (Google, Outlook) to sync right after a change and every couple of minutes, so it reaches Calendar on your other devices sooner.
- The Schedule widget shows today’s date at the top right, the way Calendar’s widget does (“THU 23”).
- New lock screen widget, Free now: how much free time you have right now and a task due today that fits it (“Free now · 45 min · Until 2 PM · Send Dana the proposal”), or when you’re next free while you’re in something.
- “You’re free now”: when half an hour or more opens up after a meeting on a weekday, a notification says how long you have and which task due today fits it (“45 min free until 2 PM. Good time for: Send Dana the proposal (30m)”). Up to three a day; turn it on in Account → Notifications.
- The morning email shows today’s open stretches under your schedule, and a plan for today’s tasks in them.
- Free times on Home’s schedule are buttons now: tap one to put a task there (or start an event, in the iPhone and Mac apps).
- Plan the week shows each day’s open time, and which workday has the most room for your biggest thing.
- An event you count as free time (or never flag) stays out of your way everywhere but the calendar itself: not in Home’s greeting, the Up next card, Today’s schedule, the morning briefing, asking when you’re free, planning the week, or the “just ended” follow-up nudge.
- Home’s greeting sits tighter: the counts follow the summary line directly instead of spreading out to match the Up next card, and a long place in the card stays on one line.
- Home’s schedule leads with what’s ahead: meetings already over fold into one “Earlier today” line (tap to see them), and when the day is booked it says “No free time left today” instead of “Free today: nothing open”. Under the greeting, the counts are what to act on (overdue, due today, next 7 days), and the time line shows only when the day is overbooked.
- Home is tidier: the greeting, capture bar, area tabs and your plate sit closer, the evening “Wrapping up?” line is one neat row, Today’s schedule keeps each end time on one line and trims long places with “…”, and Follow up shows when you point at a past meeting.
- Events counted as free time no longer show in the widgets, on the watch or in the Mac’s menu bar, and they update the moment you switch it on.
- Snooze a task right from Calendar’s task list: point at it and pick a day, as on Home.
- A task’s details (Due, Reminder, Area and the rest) read like Settings: the label on the left, its value on the right.
- Connecting a calendar without typing its long link: on iPhone, add Outlook or Google to the iPhone itself and tick it under On this iPhone (the Calendars sheet now says how, and you can add and edit its events too). By link: Paste reads what you copied (and fixes Outlook’s web-page link or stray spaces), sharing a calendar link to MyRecall or pasting it in the capture bar connects it, and so does emailing it to your MyRecall address. A link the calendar server refuses now says to paste it rather than type it.
- Add an event from the + button: tap Event in the sheet for a new one, or type it first (“Lunch with Sam Friday 1pm 90m at Condado Tacos”) and tap Event to open it with the day, time, length and place filled in. In the iPhone and Mac apps.
- Swiping between days on Schedule follows your finger: the day slides with you and the next one slides in from that side (a short swipe settles back). Picking a day in the strip slides it in too.
- A custom repeat’s “Every” and “on day” boxes can be cleared and retyped: delete the 1 and type 3 for every 3 months (it used to become 13).
- MyRecall for Mac shows calendar changes within seconds of your Mac getting them, without waiting for the iPhone app to open: the open window reloads as soon as the Mac sends its copy, and a copy no longer gets turned away for being a fraction of a second behind the phone’s.
- AI assistants connected to MyRecall can find any task by its title (on any date), fix one (title, day, time, repeat, how long, where) and move one to the Trash. Each add answers with the task as saved, and the same words added twice in a day are saved once.
- Edit event in MyRecall for Mac finds the event even when your iPhone and Mac know it by different ids, and an event on a read-only calendar says so instead of “doesn’t have this event”.
- Invite people to an event. In the iPhone app, add them as Invitees in the iPhone’s event editor, where invitations go out from your account and replies show on the event. On Mac and the web, add their email addresses when you create the event (or Invite people on it): each gets a calendar invitation from you, and replies come to your email.
- Where finds places near you: in the iPhone and Mac apps it searches around where you are, like Maps (it asks once), or around home if location is off. Places up the road now come first.
- Type “home” in any Where box to use your home address (Account → Home).
- Where’s suggestions stay in view while editing: the box scrolls up as you type, and the list opens above it when there’s no room below.
- Drag events to move them on Schedule: grab one (press and hold on a phone) and drop it at a new time or on another day. It snaps to 15 minutes, saves to your calendar, and Undo puts it back. Works for your iPhone calendars in the iPhone and Mac apps.
- Where finds the place as you type: start typing a business or an address in an event or a task and pick it; MyRecall fills in the name and full address. In the iPhone and Mac apps it searches like Apple Maps.
- A long event counted as free no longer squeezes the ones you actually have: on Schedule it sits behind them with its name showing, and they get the full width (or it becomes a slim bar at the side when something starts right on top of its name).
- Moved events stay moved: when your iPhone and Mac both send your calendars, MyRecall keeps whichever copy has the latest edit, so a device that hasn’t caught up yet can’t put an event back where it was.
- MyRecall for Mac finds all your iPhone calendars, even when the Mac names their account differently (a Google calendar listed under your email address, say), so each one can take new events there.
- Add and change calendar events in MyRecall for Mac: click a free spot or + Event for a new one, open any event from your iPhone calendars to Edit or Delete it. Changes go to the Mac’s Calendar (and from there to your iPhone) and show in MyRecall right away.
- Calendar changes made on your Mac show up in MyRecall within seconds: the Mac app sends your iPhone calendars as your Mac has them whenever something changes (it asks for calendar access once). Coming back to the iPhone app also checks for changes every time, instead of every 15 minutes.
- Double-booked on Schedule? Tap the small red warning dot where they collide: “It’s fine this time”, or count one of the meetings as free time, right there without opening either one.
- iPhone calendars sync in seconds: change an event in Calendar (or another app, or from your computer) and MyRecall has it right away while it’s open, or the moment you come back to it. It used to wait up to 15 minutes.
- Your widgets read your iPhone’s calendars directly, so a moved or new event shows on the home screen without opening MyRecall.
- On Mac, the calendar in the menu bar uses your Mac’s own copy of your iPhone calendars (it asks once), so a change shows the moment your Mac has it.
- Select many: On your plate → ⋯ → Select, or press and hold a task → Select. Tap the ones you want, then Done, Move, Area, Priority or Delete them all at once, with Undo.
- Done today: what you finished today folds up under On your plate. Open it to see the list, and tap one to put it back.
- A task’s steps show as one count on its row and card (“2/4”), dated steps included.
- Repeat after done: “water the plants every 10 days after done” comes back 10 days after you check it off, however late you were. In the editor: Repeat → Custom… → After it’s done.
- A heads-up before a reminder: under Remind me at, choose Also remind me 10 minutes, 1 hour or 1 day before.
- On your plate is calmer: One at a time and Reorder are under ⋯, and overdue tasks are one line (“4 overdue”) with Review and Move all.
- Editing a task is shorter: the name, steps, when, repeat, area and why. How long it takes, where, list and priority are under More options, with what’s set shown beside it. Comments are in the task itself, not the edit form.
- Checklists and subtasks are now one thing: Steps. Add them right under the task’s name. A step with a day (“call the printer Friday”), or one you give a date with its calendar button, shows up on that day by itself and stays listed under its task.
- Tags are gone, to keep things simple: areas and lists already do that job. A #word you type stays in the task’s text, and tasks you tagged before still turn up when you search for the tag.
- Moving a task to a day where its reminder time has already passed drops the reminder instead of sending it late, and checking a task off cancels a reminder still waiting. Undo after moving or checking off many at once brings back their checklists and reminders too.
- Ticking checklist items and then tapping Edit keeps the ticks. Picking a day for a repeating task moves it to the nearest day that fits the repeat, and “No date” ends the repeat.
- Overdue tasks read the same everywhere: “1 day overdue”, “3 days overdue”.
- Tentative events look tentative: striped in Schedule and marked “Tentative” in lists, from your iPhone’s calendars (invitations you haven’t said yes to) and calendar links alike. Open one and turn on “Count as free time” to keep that time open for other things; events your calendar shows as free never block your time.
- Any meeting can be counted as free time, just that once, from its details. It stays on your calendar, widgets, watch and Mac, marked Free, so you know it’s there; it just doesn’t take your time.
- Opening an event is smoother: Edit and your choices are there at once, the notes hold their place while they load, and an event you’ve opened before opens instantly.
- In the iPhone app, add and change events on your iPhone’s calendars (including Google, Outlook and iCloud accounts added to your iPhone): tap a free spot in Schedule for “New event at 2 PM”, or ⋯ → New event in Calendar; Edit event on any of them, Delete, and for a repeating event, this one or all future ones.
- Connect up to 40 calendars (it was 10), and a busy calendar can no longer crowd out the events of the others.
- Adding or changing a calendar event closes the moment your iPhone has it, and your widgets and watch catch up right after.
- Skipping a Next steps item gives you a few seconds to Undo.
- Put a task on your calendar: open it, ⋯ → Add to calendar. It starts at the task’s time and runs as long as the task takes.
- Next steps on Home: tap a step’s circle to skip it if it isn’t for you (no AI assistant? skip that one). It counts as done and stays gone.
- The MyRecall loop on “Plate’s clear” and other finished moments always shows in full; on some iPhones it could get stuck as a dot.
- In Calendar, a habit you’ve checked in today shows a checked box like a done task, and tapping it takes the check-in back.
- Get MyRecall Pro right in the iPhone app: monthly or yearly through the App Store, paid with your Apple ID. Restore purchases from the same screen, and manage it in Settings like any subscription.
- The Schedule widget is now a timeline: the next few hours drawn to scale, with meetings in their colors, your free time, a line at now and a Join button for video calls. Large shows through your last meeting (up to six hours), medium three as a strip. It moves along with the day by itself.
- Pick your color: Account → Your color. Marigold yellow stays the default, or choose Orange, Coral, Rose, Lilac, Sage or Lime, or any color you like. It’s used for today, Up next and checking things off, on every device, your widgets and your watch.
- On iPhone, the app icon’s dot matches your color, wherever you picked it (iPhone, Mac or the web). A custom color gets the closest dot.
- Swipe tasks in Calendar too: right to check off, left for tomorrow, just like on Home.
- MyRecall for Mac: the app in its own window, ⌃⌥Space to add a task from anywhere, what’s due and what’s next in the menu bar, and the count on the Dock icon.
- On Mac, the tasks in the menu bar open as a panel: add a task right there, Up next with Done and Tomorrow, check things off, hover for Tomorrow or Open, right-click for later, and mark people Talked.
- On Mac, your calendar gets its own spot in the menu bar: how long until your next meeting, and a click opens two weeks of days and the day as a timeline (meetings in their colors, free time, a line at now, Join for video calls).
- The watch app shows when its data came in, and the Tasks complication says “As of …” if what it shows is old.
- The watch’s Tasks complication counts today’s tasks the way the app does, with anything overdue noted on its own, and keeps up: your iPhone hands the watch your day each time it changes, and the complications show the latest the watch app saw.
- iPad with a keyboard: ⌘N for a new task, ⌘F to search, ⌘1, ⌘2… to switch views. Hold ⌘ to see them all. On the web, press / to search.
- Today’s schedule on a phone starts an hour before now and keeps up as the day goes. The morning that’s gone is one tap away under “Earlier today”.
- More colors for calendars and areas, blues included: navy, cobalt, sky, teal, cocoa and sand. Calendars from your iPhone keep their own color, and calendars that used to show blue are blue again.
- MyRecall on Apple Watch: what’s next with a countdown, today’s tasks to tap off, and who to reach out to. It signs in from your iPhone, nothing to set up.
- Watch complications for round spots and corners: Next up (a ring that runs down to what’s next), Tasks (fills up as you check things off, or an arc along the edge in a corner) and Free time (“Free until 2:00 PM”).
- Widgets move on by themselves: a meeting leaves when it ends, and what’s next counts down (“2:00 PM · in 25 min”).
- The Schedule widget shows your free time: “Free until 2:00 PM”, and the open stretches between meetings in the large size.
- New widgets: Reach out (who you’re due to call, with a tap for “We talked”) and Countdown (days to the next birthday or anniversary).
- New task from Control Center, the lock screen or the Action button (iOS 18 and later).
- Widgets look right on tinted and clear home screens.
- Siri, built into the iPhone app: say “Hey Siri, add to MyRecall” or “Hey Siri, ask MyRecall”. Nothing to set up, and it shows up in Spotlight and Shortcuts too.
- Connect Claude or ChatGPT in a minute: Account → AI assistant, Siri & email, pick yours, copy the link and follow three steps.
- New here? Sign up right from the sign-in screen: the emailed code creates your account.
- On iPhones with iOS 26, the tab bar and + are Apple’s own Liquid Glass, and the app icon is too, in light, dark, tinted and clear.
- The number on the app icon stays current while the app is closed: check something off anywhere and it updates.
- A simpler Home: your day, what’s on your plate and who you’re waiting on. People and important dates show up only when someone’s due a call or a date is two weeks off. Plan the week, Templates, Archive and Trash moved to your account menu.
- Calmer task rows (no “Today” on things due today), one ⋯ menu and pinch to zoom in the calendar, and the + sheet only asks Task, Habit or Date when it thinks you meant something other than a task.
- A simpler set of views: Dashboard, Calendar, People and Board. Turn any view on or off under More → Customize (on a phone) or Your views (in the sidebar).
- Important dates live in Calendar now: tap Dates there for the full list with countdowns. They’re still on your dashboard, on each person and in your morning email.
- Habits is something you turn on. If you already keep habits, nothing changes. With it off, “floss every night” saves as a task that repeats every day.
- Your booking page: one link (myrecall.me/meet/your-name) where people book time with you. Set your hours, how much notice you need, breathing room between meetings, and the kinds of meeting you offer (a 30-minute call, an hour in person). Only open times show, and every booking lands on your schedule. Find it under Scheduling.
- Scheduling: see what’s booked, cancel with a note (they’re emailed), and turn off one-time links you’ve shared. People who leave an email get a confirmation with a link to add it to their calendar or cancel.
- Ask, don’t search: type a question where you add tasks, like “when am I free for an hour this week?”, “what’s on tomorrow?”, “what’s overdue?” or “what did I promise Dana?”, and the answer appears right there. It works from your calendar and tasks on your device, instantly.
- Free times come ready to share: Copy turns them into a message to paste (“Thu, Oct 8: 10 AM–2 PM or 3:30–6 PM”). Tap one to hold it: pick the start, and it’s on your schedule, with Undo if you change your mind.
- Share a link instead: “Share a link” on your free times makes a page where the other person picks one, no account needed. They see only open times, in their own time zone. Their pick lands on your schedule, you get a notification, and the link closes.
- Ask Siri too: “Hey Siri, MyRecall”, then “what’s on tomorrow?” or “when am I free Friday?”, and hear the answer. Start with “add” to save a question as a task instead.
- On a Mac or a wide screen, your views sit in a sidebar like a Mac app, the Board reads like Reminders, and the calendar like a Mac calendar. The Agenda skips days with nothing on them.
- On iPhone: + opens a sheet that shows what it understood as you type, press and hold any task for quick actions, and screens slide like an app. Every tab has its own title, and pages show their outline while loading.
- Links in tasks: paste links into a task (or a checklist, one per item) and they show up by name, like “Roborock Q7 Max Robot Vacuum”, ready to tap. Links in a checklist show only in the checklist, not again below it.
- A new look: your dashboard opens on what’s up next, in big yellow, with today’s date like a desk calendar. Details read as plain words, and areas and calendars have new colors.
- Tasks for two (or more): in a shared area, pick everyone a task is for, like you and your partner. It's on both your plates and reminds you both.
- Heads up: MyRecall now warns you, days ahead, when meetings overlap, when you can't drive between two places in time, or when a day has more to do than time to do it. It's on your dashboard and in your morning and evening emails. Tap ⋯ to resolve one, or to never flag a meeting that isn't yours to attend.
- Brain dump: tap the brain button by the capture bar and type or talk through everything on your mind. It becomes separate tasks, habits and dates in one go.
- Your day, timed: give tasks a length (“45m”) and a place, and Schedule shows how full each day really is, drives included. Fit my day finds a time for everything else, for that day only.
- Time to leave: a notification 10 minutes before you need to head out for a task or meeting with a place.
- Evening wrap-up (Pro): what you got done, what's left with one tap to move it to tomorrow, and how tomorrow looks. Turn it on in Account → Emails & notifications.
- Also new: errands near each other grouped into one trip, your plan in Google, Apple or Outlook Calendar (Calendar → Calendars), and a new glass look on iPhone.
- Your AI assistant can now see today's habits and check one in when you tell it, and list birthdays and anniversaries coming up.
- Tell Siri or your assistant “floss every night” or “Mom’s birthday is March 3” and it becomes a habit or an important date, as when you type it in the app. Ask Siri for “habits” or “dates” to hear them.
- Connect your AI assistant: under Account → Siri, share sheet & email → AI assistants, make a connection and add MyRecall to your assistant as a custom connector. It can add tasks and reminders the way you'd say them, and check what's due. Each assistant gets its own connection you can turn off.
- New Schedule view in Calendar: your week as a timeline, with meetings as long as they really are, your open time marked Free, and everything without a time in a strip above each day.
- The team plan: $249 a year, or $24.99 a month, for up to 10 people, with every Pro feature for everyone on the team. The team's owner turns it on under Account → Team.
- Teams, for small companies: start one under Account → Team, invite people by email, and choose team areas. Everyone on the team is in every team area, including people who join later, and you can see how much is on each person's plate. Owners and admins manage people and areas.
- Waiting on: tasks you've assigned to someone in a shared area, by person, on your dashboard. Tap Nudge to ask how it's going (once a day, by notification and email).
- Meeting notes that name a teammate you share an area with now assign that person's action items to them, in the area you share.
- Tap Free time in Schedule to put a task you already have there: today's untimed tasks and anything overdue come first, or start a new one.
- Today's weather next to the date on your dashboard. Hide it under Customize if you'd rather not.
- Forward meeting notes to your MyRecall address and each action item or next step becomes a subtask of one follow-up, dated when the notes say when.
- Add subtasks while you create a task, so a whole plan goes in at once, and give each one its own date with the calendar button next to it.
- One at a time: open what needs attention full screen, one task after another, with Done, Tomorrow and Skip.
- Swipe a task right to check it off, or left to move it to tomorrow (on phones).
- A calmer dashboard and header, and an account menu grouped into short pages.
- Simpler editing: pick Today, Tomorrow or Next week, add a time if you want one, and find list, priority and tag under More options.
- Undo after snoozing, moving and deleting, not just checking off.
- Tasks two weeks late can move to Ideas in one tap, and “Not today” quiets the overdue reminder until tomorrow.
- Put what needs your attention in the order you’ll do it: drag a row by its handle. Your morning email follows the same order.
- People has its own tab, next to Dashboard and Calendar.
- On phones, the tab bar holds four tabs plus More. Choose which four under More → Customize.
- Put your morning email in your own order, like today’s schedule first. Find it under the morning email setting.
- Forwarded emails read a day or time from the subject, like “Call Kyle tomorrow at 3pm”.
- Outlook forwards are recognized, so the original sender and message land in the reason.
- People, rebuilt: save the people who matter, @mention them in a note, get a keep-in-touch nudge, and see what’s open with everyone in your next meeting.
- Add people from your contacts, and add someone to a calendar event.
- The day line counts down to your next meeting: “Weekly sync starts in 32 minutes”.
- Weekly review: plan the week in five minutes.
- Import from Todoist, Apple Reminders, or a pasted list.
- Habit history: a year of check-ins at a glance.
- Templates: save a note and start new ones from it.
- Undo right from the “Done” message after checking something off.
- Open sign-ups with a 7-day Pro trial, and founding membership.
- A new dashboard that starts with your day: a line that reads it back, what needs attention, and today’s schedule.
- Habits as a list and important dates as a timeline.
- Calendar events show when they end, and finished meetings fade.
- The iPhone app takes shape: native notifications, your phone’s calendars, contact birthdays, and Share → MyRecall.
- Notes open to read first, with Mark done and Snooze right there.
- Shared areas: share Home with a partner or a project with a coworker, assign things, and comment.
- Works offline: capture and check off without a signal, and it syncs when you’re back.
