NEW: Window Backgrounds (Mac) Choose how SyncTaskBar looks on your desktop: • Standard: the classic look • Vibrant: translucent, like native macOS windows • Dark Glass: a darker, frosted look • Liquid Glass and Clear Liquid Glass on macOS 26 and later • Solid: a calm, opaque background You can also adjust the opacity and turn on an accent color tint. NEW: Backgrounds on Apple Vision Pro Choose Standard, Light Glass, Dark Glass or Solid, with adjustable opacity. Windows on visionOS also resize better, and the split view layout is improved. Notifications • Time Sensitive notifications: important reminders can break through Focus modes if you allow it. • Reminders on iPhone and iPad are now much more reliable, including repeating tasks. • You get a notification when new tasks arrive from your other devices. • A new "Enable Notifications" button helps if notifications were turned off. iCloud Sync • Faster and more reliable sync between Mac, iPhone, iPad and Vision Pro • Background refresh keeps your tasks up to date iPhone & iPad • "Clear All" now asks for confirmation before deleting your tasks. • Fixed layout issues on iPad in portrait and landscape. • Opening a task on iPad now always shows the correct task. • Clear hint when calendar access is denied. • Calendar access now only asks for permission to add events. SyncTaskBar never reads your calendar. Mac • Fixed: the task window could stay empty on some Macs running macOS 15. • Fixed: the bottom of the Preferences window was cut off on smaller screens. • The widget list now starts at the top. Also • Improved and completed translations in all languages • Updated privacy information • Many small fixes and performance improvements This update improves task editing and reminder reliability across all supported platforms. • Improved date selection and closing behavior in the Mac task detail window. • Repeating reminders now continue automatically while the app is closed. Repeats start after one full interval; selected dates apply to one-time reminders. • Completing a task now fully clears its reminder, preventing old alarms from returning when the task is reopened. • Turning notifications off now cancels scheduled task reminders. • Added clearer messages and retry options when tasks cannot be loaded or changes cannot be saved. • Updated the bundled font selection.
