## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 2.0.5 — 2026-07-23

What's new in 2.0.5:

- Choose which calendars count. The new Calendars option in the MORE menu lets you exclude holidays, sports schedules, or shared calendars from your availability. The app, widgets, Live Activities, iMessage, Siri, and the share sheet all respect your selection. Apple Watch continues to use all calendars for now.
- Smarter availability questions. Asking about a weekday ("any hour Friday afternoon", "next Tuesday after 2pm") now always resolves to the correct date, and morning, afternoon, and evening map to sensible hours.
- Assorted small fixes and polish.

### 2.0.4 — 2026-07-21

- Your availability now refreshes immediately after you create or edit an event from inside the app. No more stale slots until the next pull-to-refresh.
- Free and busy times are now computed by a single shared engine across the app, widgets, Live Activities, Apple Watch, iMessage, Siri, and the share sheet, so every surface shows the same answer.
- Assorted small fixes and polish.

### 2.0.3 — 2026-05-21

What's new:
- Ask in plain English. Queries like "in 3 weeks" or "in 6 months" now open a 2-week window centered on that date, so you see availability around a target without scrolling.
- Pin your favorite searches. Tap PIN after any query to save it as a one-tap button. Pinned buttons appear in the search bar and inline with the Range row above your calendar, so you can jump to any saved date window from the main screen.
- Quick start. The new Pinned Queries screen has a one-tap shortcut to add 3, 6, 9, and 12-month range presets. Open it from the toolbar menu.
Rearrange your way. Drag handles are always visible in Settings for instant reordering, no Edit button required. Or long-press a pinned button in the Range row for a Move Left / Move Right shortcut.
- Synced via iCloud. Your pinned queries follow you across your devices.
