Changelog

The quick toolbar is back above the checklist, alongside the new title-bar menus.

• Search, Focus, Today, Board, Review and Export are once again shown next to the checklist in the app window.
• The title-bar menus and compact toolbar stay exactly where they are, so nothing moves.
• Refreshed taskbar and window icon at every Windows size.

One clean menu bar at the very top — in the app window and on the website.

• Every menu (Workspaces, Go, Tools, Account) now sits in the window title strip next to the app name.
• Search, Focus, Today, Board, Review and Export moved up into the same strip, freeing space above the checklist.
• The website now uses the identical menu bar on desktop browsers, so both look and work the same.
• Menus no longer shift the page when opened.

A cleaner desktop window: both side panels are gone and everything now lives in the app header.

• No more left or right sidebars in the desktop app — the planner uses the full window width.
• New header menus: Workspaces, Tools (calendar, export PDF, templates, daily panels, reminders, trash) and Account (profile, theme, refresh, upgrade, sign out).
• Search, Today, Board, Review and Export sit next to the checklist on the toolbar.
• New unified Today hub gathering tasks, calendar blocks, due items, goal streaks and note reminders.
• Global search now also finds calendar time blocks, and the weekly review can be saved straight into Notes.
• Recurring and templated notes to keep weekly planning consistent.

A far better calendar, smarter notes, and easier updating from the Microsoft Store.

• Calendar overhaul: quick inline editing straight from a time block, drag-to-create, overlap warnings with a one-tap “move to next free slot”, and precise ±15 minute nudges.
• Undo everywhere in the calendar — create, edit, move, resize and delete, including bulk changes rolled back in a single step.
• New multi-select mode to shift or delete several scheduled blocks at once.
• Full keyboard layer for the calendar: switch Day/Week/Month/Agenda, jump to today, create and quick-edit, with a shortcuts cheatsheet on “?”.
• Notes can now be exported to PDF in one tap and can remind you at times or on days you choose.
• Link a note to a specific action, meeting or goal and jump back and forth between them.
• Student Today strip: expand the full list, snooze items, complete in one tap and open a details drawer.
• New light / dark / system appearance switch that follows your device automatically.
• Quick refresh button and a tidier bottom status bar that no longer overlaps the side panels.
• Updating is simpler: an in-app banner when a newer Store build is out, an “Update from Microsoft Store” button, update-check frequency settings, and an optional prompt to pin the app to your taskbar.
• Full-screen now toggles with F11 only, and the Calendar shortcut opens the calendar reliably.

New look on launch: fresh app icon and a full-screen welcome animation.

• Brand-new app icon across the taskbar, Start menu and Microsoft Store tiles.
• A calm full-screen welcome animation now plays while the planner loads, fading smoothly into your day.
• Fixed the app showing two welcome screens in a row on start-up — it now shows just one.
• Store copies keep the in-app download promotions hidden, matching Microsoft Store rules.
• Renewal and trial-ending emails now send reliably instead of silently failing.

Updating from inside the app now works end to end.

• Fixed the installer wrongly reporting “not enough disk space” and refusing to install.
• “Check for updates → download and install” now completes on its own instead of asking you to install manually.
• If a download was interrupted before, the app offers to try again instead of pausing that release forever.
• Update files are re-checked against their published fingerprint before installing.

A proper desktop app: tray, focus window, notification actions and window memory.

• Quick capture is faster and safer: type a line anywhere with Ctrl+Shift+Space, with dates and times understood as you type, and it is saved even if you are offline.
• New keyboard shortcuts across the app, with an updated cheatsheet showing every global and in-app key.
• The tray icon (menu bar on macOS) now lists today's next open items and lets you jump straight to a workspace.
• New compact always-on-top focus window (Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+F) for keeping today's list in a corner while you work.
• Reminders now have Complete and Snooze buttons directly on the notification, respect quiet hours, and can hide task titles on the lock screen with privacy mode.
• The app reopens exactly where you left it — size, position, maximised or full screen — and pulls itself back on screen if a monitor is unplugged.
• New “Remember window size & position” option alongside start-with-Windows and start-minimised.
• Microsoft Store package now supports Windows startup and native reminder notifications.

Store submission build with MSIX support and clearer install results.

• New Microsoft Store package path: build an MSIX without a third-party code-signing certificate; the Store re-signs it for you.
• Every install outcome now reports its own distinct result code, so the Microsoft Store and IT tools can tell exactly what happened.
• Installing the same version again is detected up front instead of reinstalling over itself.
• The installer checks for free disk space before it starts copying files.
• Running two installs at once is blocked cleanly rather than colliding.

Microsoft Store ready: cleaner, quieter, safer install.

• Now available through the Microsoft Store, with the Store handling installs and updates for you.
• The Windows installer can run completely unattended, so IT teams and the Store can deploy it without prompts or restarts.
• Removed unused graphics components and switched to the standard Windows renderer for a smaller, steadier app.
• Every file in the download is signed, and the app verifies an update before it installs it.
• Store copies no longer show the in-app updater, so you will never be asked to update twice.

“Download and install” now really installs.

• Fixed the update button doing nothing when the new version had already been fetched quietly in the background — it now installs the copy it already has.
• If Windows refuses to start the installer, the app says so and offers to open the installer or the download page instead of failing silently.
• A blocked install no longer counts against the release, so a good update is never pushed into manual-only mode by mistake.
• Incomplete downloads are discarded and fetched again on the next check.

One-click updates that actually install.

• Fixed the update loop: the installer is now launched with the Windows permission prompt it needs, so updates apply on the first try.
• The installer closes the running app before copying files, so nothing is left on the old version.
• The planner reopens itself automatically once an update finishes installing.
• Update notifications explain exactly what happens next, and repeat prompts for an already-installed version are gone.

Desktop power tools: command palette, multi-day board and weekly review.

• New command palette — press Ctrl+K to jump to any day, task or tool.
• Multi-day board (Ctrl+B): see 3 or 7 days side by side and drag tasks between them.
• Weekly review (Ctrl+R): completion stats and one-click rollover of unfinished tasks.
• Export & backup centre (Ctrl+E): full JSON backup plus CSV and Markdown exports.
• Keyboard shortcuts for day navigation, search and quick add, with an in-app cheatsheet.

Capture a task from anywhere with Ctrl+Shift+Space.

• New global shortcut: press Ctrl+Shift+Space anywhere in Windows to add a line to today without opening the app.
• A tray icon now shows how many items are still open today, with quick links to Today, Templates and Account.
• New launch options: start with Windows and start minimised to the tray.
• Closing the window keeps the planner running in the tray instead of quitting.

Upgrades bought in your browser now come straight back to the app.

• After paying in the browser, the desktop window comes forward and unlocks Pro right away.
• The account panel now stays docked on the right on wide screens, so sign-in and Upgrade are always one click away.
• Steadier sign-in handoff and a manual fallback if the browser can't reach the app.

Signing in with Google now always comes back to the app.

• Google sign-in returns to the desktop window reliably, even when Windows never registered the app's link handler.
• If the handoff can't reach the app, the browser page now offers to finish signing in there instead of leaving you stuck.
• Update popups show the full release notes before anything downloads.

Google sign-in now completes inside the desktop app.

• Fixed Google sign-in: after picking your account in the browser, the desktop app signs you in automatically.
• Added an in-app “Check for updates” button with release notes.
• Updates now install in place, keeping your shortcuts and session.

First Windows release.

• Full planner in a native window, with offline support.
• Payments and Google sign-in open securely in your browser.
• One-click installer for Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit).
