Given the positive response to the Cardhop birthday widget from last month, we decided to enhance it further by adding an option for users to display a countdown to upcoming contact birthdays. Fantastical also gained support for the Working Elsewhere feature found in Exchange, and we added AppleScript support for gathering information about selected events and tasks – AppleScript enthusiasts everywhere rejoiced (we know you’re out there)! July brought custom app icons for Fantastical and Cardhop in the macOS Dock, giving our apps a bit of extra personality and customization. We even managed to quickly push out another new widget for Cardhop, which allowed users to keep track of upcoming birthdays.įantastical was also back on the agenda this month, as we added Vowel meeting support and made it possible to set a custom date for week numbers to start from – super useful if you count weeks as part of a school semester or corporate quarter. Finally, we added the ability to scan text in business cards or letters using your camera and automatically create a new contact – a feature many people had been asking us for since Cardhop first appeared on the scene.Īs summer arrived we were in full support mode following the launch of Cardhop 2, and were busy squashing the odd bug that crept through our various pre-release testing stages, as well as supporting our users with the transition to the new version of Cardhop. A new suite of Cardhop widgets was introduced, in keeping with the new style of widgets Apple introduced in 2020. Images were now able to be uploaded as attachments to contacts in Cardhop. We strengthened the bond between Fantastical and Cardhop by allowing users to invite contacts or groups to events in Fantastical via the new Invite action in Cardhop. Relationships provided a quick and easy way to see a visual representation of a contact’s personal and professional networks. Alongside the expected polish and UI updates, it brought great new features designed for fellow contact geeks like us! This brought Cardhop to our premium subscription, meaning that every subscriber now got both Fantastical and Cardhop for the same price!Ĭardhop 2 was a real labor of love for us. May was a big one – we launched Cardhop 2 and Flexibits Premium after months of planning. AprilĪpril was a quieter month as we geared up for a major product launch, but we still found time to sneak two more conference call services into Fantastical: CoScreen and Microsoft Teams for government made the cut, helping leaders around the world continue to run their countries (who we are certain must be using Fantastical to manage their schedules!). We didn’t want Cardhop to feel left out of the conference call party, so we added brand new Cardhop actions for RingCentral calling and messaging too. Combined with multiple event selection, these new options make it so power users can save time and change the status of multiple events at once.įantastical also gained two more call services, in the form of Huddle and Riverside.fm. MarchĪs spring arrived, Fantastical for Mac gained a quicker way to change event status and visibility, with instant access to these options from the right-click menu. We also added waiting room support for Zoom users (no more gatecrashers at your virtual meetings!), and added Gather to our burgeoning list of calling options. Next month, Fantastical’s calendar widgets got a neat addition: events could now be shown via dots or a heat map, or even just stripped away altogether for a nice clean view of the calendar month. These were two features our fans had been asking us to add throughout the previous year, and we were happy to deliver! February We added support for Dialpad calls and gave our users more options when creating meeting proposals, such as the ability to set a specific email address proposals are sent from, and re-sending proposals to specific users when necessary. JanuaryĪdmittedly, we were still a little giddy after receiving Apple’s Mac App of the Year award in 2020, and this energized us to launch into the New Year with a focus to further enhance collaboration for people continuing to work from home. Please join us as we reflect on how 2021 unfolded for Flexibits.
