long promised, finally here. in settings > integrations, you can connect your apple calendar.
this means it now fully works on desktop and iOS. so so happy to ship this heavy requested feature.
repeating todos
almost as heavily requested, also there now! on iOS and desktop you can setup todos to repeat daily, every tuesday and wednesday, twice a month,...
you can also decide if we should add those todos to the calendar. and also when they should be re-created.
design upgrade
our dock and calendar navigation got a glow-up 💅
hover events to get a quick preview and add a private note quickly
we now have an agenda/list view for the calendar
todos
we built a little demo for ai scheduling. head to settings > todos to check it
you can now archive lists
and pick from double the possible colors for lists
new event sync
ideally you never even noticed! we spent months rebuilding the event sync to be fully reliable. many many small calendar issues should be a thing of the past, hehe.
if you still run into small issues, please send feedback and we'll get it fixed!
improvements
you can now pick which calendars our menubar shows in settings > calendars.
and we did many small fixes around todo descriptions, the todoist integration etc.

Amie update #114
June 18, 2024
ai scheduling
it's more responsive now and also supported on iOS. but that's just the entrée.
the main: in settings > general, you can now set preferred times™. just use natural language to create even complex preferences. this gives you full customizability.
and for dessert: you can now schedule all todos in a list (no longer only prio or deadline todos)
you can make both these changes in settings > lists. each list can have it's own scheduling preferences.
pomodoro timers
long overdue! for our favorite pro(modoro) users, we now display timers in the menubar. AND we now show a notification when it finishes. AND we also play a soothing short sound. no jumpscare like with the OG iPhone alarm, promise.

the last missing bits are coming this week:
adding guests within Amie
join video calls
edit recurrence
change an event's calendar from apple to google.
calendar crusher
you gotta find out whether or not this is a joke. and the best way to find out is pressing ⌘+K and look for calendar crusher.
have fun 🤣

Amie update #106
March 25, 2024
hey, thanks to all of you who trialed Amie Pro after the last changelog 🫡
email push notifications
you can now get push notifications for emails on desktop and iOS! 💌
in desktop settings: turn them on/off for Email, Other or Calendar emails (this will be reflected on iOS too). we'll soon open the email directly from the push.
question: how could we improve our email routing for you? (ie. Email, Other, Calendar)
email signatures (once more)
signatures now get added for emails/replies on iOS :)
new: you can update signatures from within Amie (on desktop)
fix: we now handle complex signatures correctly
Private notes (for Amie Pro)
ever wanted to prepare for a meeting but not share that with guests? or take your own notes during a call? no?
well, now you can! (my personal fav use case: take notes during an interview. makes them super easy to find later)
fixes and improvements
improvement: when deleting a list, decide if you want to keep its todos (on iOS, desktop had this)
fix: we fixed 12 issues with todo creation and updating! there should be (nearly) no more issues ❤️🔥
fix: we fixed a bug where we removed the recurrence on todoist todos
coming up soon™

Amie update #105
March 18, 2024
P1-P3: Set Priority or Super Priority
You can now add priority and super priority to todos and emails. So happy they actually feel like ✨ Amie ✨. Priorities in other tools always felt like Work.
We made it so that you can only set 3 Super Priority across lists to make them meaningful. Also, we shipped a ridiculous easter egg, let's see if you can find it.
Email Signatures
We heard you! Signatures are important. Compose an email and we'll append your signature (it needs to be set in Gmail). We're just waiting on Google right now to also be able to create/update signatures.
This is working on Desktop, and will be included in the next iOS release too.
Fixes and Improvements
Improvement: Create todos from the iOS Share Sheet
Improvement: Allow hiding snoozed todos (until the time has come)
Fix: Made the Send email entry point clear
Fix: Ask to send notifications when drag-n-dropping an event (iOS)
