Ratings & Reviews
UI/UX Improvements:
Inbox Restructuring (June 16) - Replaced Tasks/Repeating tabs with three day-aware filters: Today (one-off tasks), Today ↻ (repeating due today), and All ↻ (all repeating). Removed the "Inbox — GRIP TO DRAG" header and moved +Task button beside tabs.
Day View Layout Fixes (June 16) - Fixed empty space at app bottom by changing from height: 100dvh to position: fixed; inset: 0. Fixed dial getting covered by inbox drawer with better sizing. Made inbox drawer collapsible with a toggle button (▤) in the header and auto-hide on zoom.
Lock Controls Compaction (June 16) - Consolidated three stacked lock toggles into a single compact "Lock" row with pills for Clear/Duration/Position/All options.
Onboarding Improvements (June 16) - Auto-hide inbox "GRIP TO DRAG" header and template hints after 5 opens, with a "Show instructions" toggle in Settings to restore them.
Bug Fixes:
Fixed 'All instances' recurring edit that was deleting other instances instead of updating them
Fixed 'This and future' edit erasing manually scheduled future instances for non-auto-scheduled recurring tasks
Fixed month 'This week' clear to only include days within the viewed month
Fixed month 'Move all to inbox' losing one-off scheduled tasks
Fixed dead self-comparison in month clear day re-render (isSameDay(currentDate, currentDate))
Fixed Apply Template sheet staying visible when navigating away or tapping backdrop
Fixed inline inbox edits/deletes not persisting (now saved immediately on close)
Feature Enhancements:
Multi-Weekday Selection (June 16) - Apply Template now allows selecting multiple weekdays (Mon+Wed, etc.) instead of just one, with presets remaining single-select
Dial Math Fixes (June 16) - Made magnet snap and template merge wrap-aware on the 24h dial to properly handle overnight blocks (e.g., 23:55 vs 00:05)
Renamed comfort view
Auto light / dark mode
