Reminders arrive: tick them off, drag one onto the timeline to give it a time. Plus a rebuilt editor, and repeat rules that finally stay the way you set them. Side Calendar is a lightweight menu bar app that puts your agenda within arm's reach. See what's happening now, what's coming next, and manage your day — all without leaving what you're working on. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Side Calendar isn't another window to manage. It lives in your menu bar and slides in from the screen edge, so your whole day is one glance or one keystroke away — then gets out of the way the moment you click off. All the power of a full calendar app, in a panel that never breaks your focus. ALWAYS KNOW WHAT'S NOW AND NEXT Your menu bar shows the current or next event with a live countdown — "45 min left" or "in 2 hr 15 min" — so you're never caught off guard. SLIDE-IN SIDE PANEL Click the menu bar icon, hit your shortcut, or move your mouse to the screen edge to reveal a sleek side panel. Pin it open when you need it, or let it dismiss the moment you click away. TWO WAYS TO VIEW YOUR DAY • Agenda View: Events and reminders grouped by day — Today, Tomorrow, and beyond. • Day View: A full hourly timeline with overlapping event layout, a current-time marker, and zoom control. Move between days with ← / →. DRAG TO RESCHEDULE Move events to a new time by dragging them in Day view. Resize an event's edge to change its duration. Draw a new event by dragging across an empty slot. Everything you'd expect from a full calendar app, right in your side panel. RIGHT-CLICK FOR QUICK ACTIONS Right-click any event to Edit, Duplicate, change its Duration, Hide, or Delete — no editor required. Duplicate a recurring event and choose to copy just this occurrence or the entire series. FULL RECURRING EVENT SUPPORT Edit, delete, or move a recurring event and choose the scope — just this occurrence, or this and all future occurrences. No surprises, no broken series. RICH EVENT EDITOR Create and edit events with everything you need: title, calendar, times, location, alerts, repeat rules, end-repeat dates, and notes. Double-click any event to open it instantly — no need to launch the Calendar app. MAKE THE DATE YOURS Choose how dates display, including a custom format with a live preview. Show week numbers in the date header and the month picker. CONFIGURABLE GLOBAL SHORTCUT Toggle the side panel from anywhere with ⌘⌥C (or bind your own combo in Settings). CALENDAR & REMINDER SUPPORT Works with all your macOS calendars and reminder lists. Choose exactly which ones to display in Settings. HOT EDGE ACTIVATION Reveal the side panel by moving your cursor to the screen edge. Adjust sensitivity to suit your workflow. Pick which side of the display it appears on. Works with multi-monitor setups. MAKE IT YOURS • Resize the panel width by dragging its inside edge • Adjust background opacity to taste • Choose left or right edge activation • Zoom Day view to your preferred density • Pin the panel open for focused planning sessions — it reappears automatically next launch THOUGHTFUL DETAILS • Month calendar picker for quick date navigation • Colour-coded events matching your calendar colours • Multi-day events shown on every day they span • Launch at Login support • Rounded, translucent panel that feels at home in macOS • Tiny footprint — lives in your menu bar, not your Dock Side Calendar is built entirely with Swift and SwiftUI, designed to feel like a natural part of macOS.

Reminders, properly. Tick a reminder off from anywhere in Side Calendar and it syncs straight back to Apple Reminders. Drag one onto the timeline to give it a time — it stays a reminder, it doesn't become an event. Reminders without a time no longer pile up at midnight. They gather in a new To Do strip at the top of the day, where you can actually see them. And separate Date and Time switches mean a reminder stops pretending to have a time it never had. Repeat rules that hold. Events and reminders can both repeat on any schedule Calendar can make — every 3 weeks, Mondays and Thursdays, the third Thursday of the month — ending on a date or after a set number of times. More importantly: a repeat rule you set in Calendar could quietly be lost. An event repeating on Mon/Wed/Fri showed up as a plain weekly event, and editing anything about it — even just the title — threw those days away. Your rules are now read, shown, and saved exactly as you wrote them. A rebuilt editor. The event and reminder editors are cleaner and more compact, and they no longer clutter the panel with options you haven't set. Choose which calendar and list new items go to in Settings — and Side Calendar now respects the defaults you've already set in Calendar and Reminders. Also in this release • The month picker shows how busy each day is at a glance, with up to three dots per day • Press Return to open the selected event; arrow keys now reach all-day events and the To Do strip • Fixed: Side Calendar could start up and then refuse to open, with the keyboard shortcut doing nothing • Fixed: editing a reminder showed the wrong list — and saving could move the reminder into it • Fixed: short events had their time cut off, and the agenda could show an empty panel with no explanation • Changes that fail now tell you, instead of silently doing nothing
