Choose how the month view is laid out. A new Month view style setting
(Settings → Views) offers three ways to read a month, each shown with a
preview of the layout it produces:- Pages — what you have today: one month at a time, swiped sideways.
- Continuous — scroll up and down through the weeks without a break
between months. Because the weeks run on unbroken, no month is cut off and
no day appears twice, where paging repeats a boundary week at the end of one
month and the start of the next. The 1st of each month names itself so you
always know where you are, and the title bar keeps up as you scroll ([#38]). - Split — a compact grid showing coloured dots for the days that have
something on them, with the day you tap listed in full underneath. Tap the
date above the list to open the whole day ([#53]).
The Agenda view is untouched by this and stays available in all three styles —
the split layout lists a single day, while Agenda remains a rolling multi-day
window with its own range settings. -
Give an event its own time zone. A new Time zone field (under "more
fields" in the event form) pins an event to a specific zone, so a call set for
8:00 AM in New York stays 8:00 AM in New York wherever you open it — and keeps
tracking that zone across daylight-saving changes instead of drifting an hour.
The form edits the event in its own zone and shows the local equivalent under
the times ("2:00 PM – 3:00 PM your time"); the event's details keep your local
time first and note the original beneath it, so both are always clear. Pick a
zone from a full-screen picker with your device zone and recent choices on top,
searching by city ("new york"), IANA id ("europe/berlin"), or abbreviation
("CEST") to gather every matching zone at once. All-day events stay
date-anchored and carry no zone, as before ([#31]). -
Put the "jump to today" button in the toolbar. A new Today button in
toolbar setting (Settings → Appearance, off by default) swaps the floating
button that fades into the corner while you're away from today for a permanent
today icon in the top bar — always there, on today or not, matching the
familiar calendar-app pattern. Leave it off to keep the floating button as
before ([#60]). -
Choose what Calendula calls itself on your home screen. A new App name
setting (Settings → Appearance) switches the launcher label between
Calendula and Calendar, for launchers that can't rename apps
themselves. Pick from a full-screen chooser that previews both names as
launcher marks; the change applies at once ([#44]). -
Calendula now speaks Arabic, laid out right-to-left, and its French and
Italian translations have been brought up to date — thanks to the community
translators on Weblate. Pick a language under Settings → Language (or leave it
on the system default).
Changed
- Dates in the Month, Week and Day title bars now follow your language and
region instead of one hardcoded layout. Every date was rendered in a fixed
German-style order with a trailing dot on the day number, whatever your
settings: US English showed "Fri, 17. Jul 2026" where it should read
"Fri, Jul 17". The Agenda view already formatted correctly, so the two
disagreed about the same date. All four views now share one formatter, and the
day/month order, the separators and the ordinal all come from your locale —
so English-in-Germany reads "Fri, 17 Jul" and English-in-the-US "Fri, Jul 17",
each correct for where you are ([#60]). - The title bar drops the year while you're in the current one — "July" rather
than "July 2026". The year reappears the moment you page out of the current
year, which is when it tells you something you didn't already know. - The Week view's title now names the month instead of spelling out the day range.
"24. Jun – 31. Jun" restated the day numbers already printed in the column
headers right below it, in the widest string in the bar. A week that straddles
two months keeps the outgoing month until it is fully gone ([#60]). - The custom recurrence picker has been redesigned and tightened up. As you
build a rule — "every 2 weeks on Mon & Wed, until a date" — the live summary
now describes exactly what will be saved rather than a near-copy that could
drift from it, the amount fields accept being left blank (reading as their
shown default instead of greying out OK), and the read-out no longer jumps
around as you tap weekdays ([#42]).
Fixed
- An all-day event no longer shows up again the day after it happened. In time
zones east of UTC, an all-day event — a birthday, say — set for one day also
appeared under the next day's heading in the Agenda (and the agenda widget),
because all-day events are anchored to UTC midnight and the following day's
window reached back across that boundary and pulled the event forward onto
"today". Each all-day event now lists only on the day it actually falls on
([#65]). - A multi-day event now shows under every day it spans in the Agenda, not just
its first day, so a trip or a multi-day booking appears on each day it covers. - The "Upcoming" agenda widget now scales its text and rows to the size you give
it. Previously it was laid out once for the smallest size and simply stretched
when enlarged, so the text stayed small no matter how big you made the widget.
Now a bigger widget gets bigger, more readable type and roomier rows, while the
default size looks exactly as before — no new setting; it follows the size you
already chose ([#51]). - Calendula now appears under other apps' "Add to calendar" / "Save to calendar"
actions. Some apps (e.g. DB Navigator) fire the widely-used "insert event"
intent with the singularvnd.android.cursor.item/eventtype, which Calendula
didn't advertise — so it was left out of the chooser, and if it was your only
calendar app the save silently did nothing. It now accepts that form, plus the
INSERT_OR_EDITaction, and opens the new event prefilled for review ([#74]). - Opening a
.ics/.vcsfile now works even when another app hands it over
mislabelled as a generic download (application/octet-stream), as some mail
clients, browsers and file managers do — Calendula recognises it by its file
extension instead of relying on the declared type ([#74]). - A recurrence end date no longer lands a day late. West of UTC, setting a rule
to end "until" a given day could save and show the day after the one picked;
the end date now reads back as chosen ([#42]). - The status- and navigation-bar icons stay legible over full-screen pickers in
dark theme. They could render dark-on-dark — a near-invisible black clock
against the dark picker — instead of switching to light ([#70]).
