What's New in DayPilot

1.1.0

September 12, 2026

CANVAS ASSIGNMENTS Subscribe to your Canvas calendar and your assignments become real deadlines instead of invisible all-day entries. They show up on your card, in the Glance and in Search, with the course code on them. Set how long a course's work usually takes and every assignment inherits it, so a big one surfaces early instead of at midnight. NOTIFICATIONS YOU CONTROL A master switch plus separate toggles for each kind of alert, and you can choose when the morning summary arrives. THREE NUMBERS THAT WERE FIXED ARE NOW YOURS Get-ready time, default task length and wind-down time all live in Settings › Planning. REBUILT SETTINGS Grouped, searchable, and considerably less of a maze. FIXED Ticking something off in the Glance no longer un-ticks itself · A repeating event alerts for every occurrence, not just the first · Search returns results again · The add form opens at your chosen default length · Faster launch from cold
