More Options for Scheduled Tasks

 

New on Desktop

  

With this new release, you can now select a default calendar for tasks that is distinct from the default calendar for events. You can also now choose to make the titles of scheduled tasks' visible by default to those who share your calendar. Like in the past, you can always switch the calendar and other preferences associated with an individual task once it is scheduled.

CleanShot 2023-03-24 at 9.44.21@2x.png

 

Improvement

  
  • Updated time zone definitions.
  • The current-time line indicator now updates faster when the computer resumes from sleep.
  • Outlook and CalDAV calendars now have a default reminder that will alert you 10 minutes in advance of an event. This can be tuned in Preferences > Accounts.
  • A new style for all-day tasks uses a light background, ensuring tasks extending over multiple days are easily identified.
  • You can now select and copy the title of events regardless of whether you are the organizer. You can also now copy the event and paste its details into any text field outside of Morgen.
  • App icon style updated on Windows.
 

Fix

  
  • Margins of ordered lists in event or task notes have been fixed.
  • A problem that could cause some events to be covered by other events has been solved.
  • A visual glitch that caused events or tasks to duplicate in the calendar has been fixed.
  • The problem that could cause the location auto-completion field to miss some options has been solved.
  • We fixed an issue impacting event creation in connected Infomaniak calendars after a recent update to their infrastructure.

Reorder Task Lists

 

New on Desktop

  

Following the same update on mobile, task lists can now be reordered on desktop as well. Changes made to task list ordering on desktop will sync with the Morgen mobile app, and vice versa.

 

Fix

  
  • We fixed a problem that caused multiple events to be created when dragging a task into the calendar.
  • We improved the event panel layout to prevent events with long notes from overflowing beyond the app window, which made some information inaccessible.
  • We reduced the sensitivity of events when being dragged across weeks to avoid accidental triggering on large screens.

New on Mobile: Join Button & Improved Widgets

 

New on Mobile

  

We are happy to introduce a new, convenient way to join virtual meetings. Now, when you receive a meeting link for a videoconferencing service, you will see a prominent Join Meeting button in the event making for seamless entry into the call.

Improvement

  

Widgets for iOS and Android have been improved:

  • all-day events are now displayed
  • tasks are more clearly distinctive from events (only open tasks are displayed)
  • identical events are merged to avoid duplicates
  • a preview of location is displayed

We also improved the widget stability and fixed some loading issues that were reported.

Here is a preview on iOS πŸ‘‡

We have also made several other fixes and improvements. These updates aim to provide a more streamlined and efficient experience. Upgrade to the latest version to take advantage of these improvements.

Multiple Task Sessions & Check Availability

These are unified release notes for Morgen 2.6.5 and 2.6.6.

 

New on Desktop

  

We've made Task Scheduling more flexible.


You can now choose whether tasks, once scheduled, should remain displayed in the task sidebar.

You can also schedule multiple sessions for a single task now, which is particularly helpful for tasks that take a long time to complete or that have multiple dependencies.

 

New on Desktop

  

Availability Check is now available for everyone. If your team is using Google Workspace or Office 365 you can now overlay your colleagues' calendars when you are scheduling a meeting.


Morgen will also provide some visual hints when a meeting might be disrupting the focus time of the attendees, so you can easily choose a time that works best for everyone.

You can also share your consolidated availability across all your calendars with other Morgen users. This feature is still in beta - please let us know if you have any feedback.

 

Improvement

  
  • We fixed some layout issues caused by the new system font on Windows.
  • Scheduling tasks in the calendar is now faster and smoother.
  • Tasks that are marked as done are now "archived" and not displayed together with open tasks. You can access the Task Archive from the sidebar.
  • The resolution of the tray icon has now been improved on some systems.
 

Fix

  
  • We fixed a problem that could cause the meeting organizer not to be listed among the attendees on Google Calendar.
  • We fixed a bug causing videoconferencing links to be stripped away when importing events from an external file into Google Calendar.
  • We fixed a bug causing the event time not to be displayed on the month view in some cases.
  • We fixed an issue where ghost events were occasionally left in the calendar when discarding a draft.

Performance, Dimming of Past Events and & more

 

Improvement

  

We've made big improvements to event creation and rendering. Creating events is way smoother and you'll notice that when navigating across weeks and months, events appear quickly without delay.

Changelog media 169 (1880 Γ— 1057 px) (3).png

Morgen now launches 2X faster. We're focused on improving Morgen's speed such that each interaction will take less than 100ms.

 

New on Desktop

  
  • Deep links for Things 3, Evernote, Obsidian, Todoist, and other tools are now recognized and clickable in the event and task description.
  • You can now choose to automatically dim down past events. This makes it easier to distinguish what is coming next in your agenda from what's already happened. Dim past events using the toggle in the calendar view dropdown menu.
  • Choose to apply automatic theme switching based on your system settings. That means switching between light and dark mode can now align with the rest of your system. To enable this, go to Preferences > General > Theme.
  • Morgen will now use your system default font. This reduces eye fatigue when working across different apps.
  • Events marked as free are now transparent, easily distinguishing them from events marked as busy.
 

Fix

  
  • We fixed a major issue that caused the synchronization of Outlook calendars to fail with events created by Microsoft Bookings.
  • Avoid scrolling the calendar when using Space as a shortcut to toggle the sidebar.
  • We fixed a layout issue on tasks with priority on the Month view.

 

Improvement

  

What's new on Morgen for iOS and Android (Beta)

We've made several improvements to mobile as well:

  • The creation and editing of calendar events are now faster and more reliable.
  • We added the possibility to create, update and reorder task lists on mobile.
  • The vertical resolution of the calendar time grid can now be adjusted.

Please notice that you might need to re-enable the calendars you want to display on mobile.
