UPCOMING MEETINGS The calendar now shows what your city has scheduled, not only what has already happened. Each body's next meeting appears with its date and time, and with how firm that date is: an agenda the city has posted, a date on its published calendar, or a date projected from the body's regular schedule. Tap any upcoming meeting to see what that body does, when it usually meets, the documents posted so far, and how to attend. DOCUMENTS Agendas, staff reports, and attachments now link to the city's own copies. When a meeting has more documents than fit on screen, the app says how many and points to the city's site for the full list. Links sometimes move before we catch up, so every document list carries a short note on where to look if one does not open. OFFICIAL SOURCES A new Official Sources screen in the settings menu names every government whose public records HeyCity summarizes, grouped by city, with links to each official site. It also states plainly what the app is: an independent service, not a government entity. ALSO IN THIS RELEASE Report an issue from more screens. Clearer wording when a city has not posted anything yet. Fixes to back navigation on the meeting screens, and to text formatting throughout.
