+### Fixed
+- Fixed the app crashing immediately on launch whenever calendar access hadn't
+  been granted yet (a fresh install, or after revoking the permission). The app
+  set up its live calendar-change listener before the permission screen could
+  appear, which newer Android versions reject outright — so the app died before
+  you could grant access. The listener now waits for the permission and attaches
+  itself the moment it's granted.
