### 1/5 — Calendar dates wrong

*2025-08-01*

An app there sole purpose is about dates should have the correct dates. It seems like the entire app's date system is off by one day.

**Developer response:** Thank you for downloading and using Whenish! We really appreciate you taking the time to report this date issue. We've identified the bug causing the one-day offset and it will be fixed in our next version release. Thanks again for helping us improve the app!

This app makes it easy to find out when your friends/family are free, and makes planning events easy!

WHAT'S NEW IN THIS VERSION

  PREMIUM PRICING UPDATE

  We've updated our pricing structure to better reflect the value Whenish provides. Premium is now $4.99 for lifetime access - still a one-time purchase with no recurring fees.

  EARLY ADOPTER PRICING: This is introductory pricing that will increase to $7.99 in the coming months. Lock in the lower price now and keep it forever.

  ENHANCED PREMIUM EXPERIENCE

  We've completely redesigned how we communicate the value of Premium to help you make an informed decision:

  CLEARER VALUE PROPOSITION
  - See exactly how much time you save with Whenish (2+ hours per event)
  - Understand the cost breakdown (just $0.42/month over a year of scheduling)
  - Compare Free vs Premium features side-by-side in an easy-to-read table

  REAL-WORLD USE CASES
  Premium is perfect for:
  - Friend group trips and vacations
  - Team meetups and offsites
  - Family gatherings and celebrations
  - Sports leagues and recurring events

  IMPROVED UPGRADE PROMPTS

  MILESTONE CELEBRATIONS
  - After creating a few polls, we'll congratulate you and offer Premium as a next step
  - When your polls get popular (3+ responses), we'll show you how Premium can help finalize those events faster
  - All prompts are respectful of your time with built-in cooldown periods

  FEATURE PREVIEWS
  Free users can now see previews of Premium features before upgrading:
  - Time slot controls are visible (but locked) so you know what you're getting
  - Event finalization section shows what Premium poll creators can do

  Premium.

  BUG FIXES AND IMPROVEMENTS

  - Improved loading states when viewing Premium options
  - Better error handling for purchase flow

  PRICING PHILOSOPHY

  We believe in transparent, fair pricing. Whenish saves you hours of back-and-forth messaging every time you coordinate with a group. The time you save organizing just one trip or
  event pays for itself many times over.

  EXISTING PREMIUM USERS

  If you already purchased Premium at $0.99, nothing changes for you. You keep Premium forever at the price you paid. Thank you for being an early supporter.
