Development Log

This page documents changes and updates across all Everdo applications.

iOS 1.8.1​

2026-01-28 production (partial rollout)

Usability​

  • Filter section now stays open when returning from editor When returning to a list from an editor screen, the filter section (if it was open) will now remain open instead of being dismissed.
  • Description editor flexible height The description editor now expands and contracts based on the content size, so that more editor controls fit on the screen vertically.
  • Back button removed from views where going back is impossible The back button in the app's toolbar is now hidden on screens where going back is not possible, such as the main views like Inbox, Next and so on.

Appearance​

  • Visual glitches in sync configuration screens Fixed several styling and layout issues in sync configuration screens.
  • Description lines containing only checkboxes Lines that contain only checkboxes are now rendered correctly instead of being truncated vertically.

Reliability​

  • Crashes and ANRs This release includes fixes for numerous crashes and hangs, improving overall app stability.

Performance​

  • Performance improvements Numerous optimizations have been made to make rendering of items faster and list scrolling smoother.

Desktop 1.10.4​

2026-01-06 production

Reliability​

  • Graceful Handling of System Clock Jumps Previously, if the OS clock was set incorrectly to a future date or jumped significantly, the scheduler for repeating actions could malfunction, potentially generating thousands of unintended actions. The app now detects these anomalies and pauses execution, allowing you to fix the system clock or adjust the repeating rules safely.
  • Privacy-First Error Reporting System We have introduced a new first-party implementation for crash and error reporting in the desktop app. This replaces previous mechanisms with a more reliable form that submits reports directly to us, ensuring complete privacy and faster triage of stability issues. When you first run the new Everdo version, you might see the "Report Error" button appear. This likely means the system detected an error that happened in the past. To hide the button, you can either submit the report, or discard it.
  • Scheduling in Some Timezones Fixed scheduling errors for users in timezones with offsets greater than +12 hours (e.g., New Zealand).

Usability​

  • Quick Capture Positioning The Quick Capture window no longer attempts to remember its last position, which caused issues on multi-monitor setups or when displays were disconnected. The window will now always open at the center of the display that currently holds the mouse pointer. Please note that on some Linux (Wayland) systems cursor tracking is limited. On such systems, Quick Capture will always open on the primary display.
  • Quick Capture Initial Focus Addressed a bug where the Quick Capture window failed to gain focus immediately on certain systems.
  • Main Window Focus on Quick Capture Dismiss Resolved an issue where the main window would jump to the foreground when Quick Capture was submitted or dismissed.
  • Standard Quit on MacOS The app no longer quits when the main window is closed. It now follows the standard MacOS convention (application remains running; use Cmd+Q to quit).
  • Initial Window Size Fixed a bug occurring on first launch where the window would initialize too small to fit contents or too large to fit the display.
  • Layout Breaking Due to Scroll Fixed a UI rendering issue caused by pressing Page Up in specific contexts.
  • Layout Breaking Due to External Display Disconnection Fixed navigation panel layout corruption occurring when an external display is disconnected.
  • Keyboard Shortcuts Fixed an issue where custom shortcuts involving the Esc key were not registering.
  • Default Areas no Longer Removed The Home and Work tags are no longer removed when you click "Delete Tutorial" after installing Everdo on a new device.
  • Go to Created Project Shortcut The shortcut now works not only for created projects, but also for items converted to a project via the editor or the inline : p command.
  • Miscellaneous Minor styling and wording improvements throughout the app.

New Functionality​

  • Trash Management You can now permanently delete individual items from the Trash, rather than being forced to empty the entire Trash at once.

Sync​

  • Tag Duplication on First Sync Fixed the Home and Work areas getting duplicated when sync first runs in cases where Everdo is installed on more than one desktop system.

Android 1.8.17​

2025-10-17 production

Appearance​

  • Dark Theme Enjoy a beautiful Dark Theme that automatically follows your system settings.
  • Edge-to-Edge Screen Design Modern, immersive edge-to-edge screen design.

Usability​

  • Redesigned Item Layout The item layout has been redesigned to allow for tags, time, energy and date labels all appear on the same line, which makes actions take less space vertically.
  • Samsung OneUI Layout Issues Fixed layout issues on some Samsung (OneUI) devices.
  • Keyboard Auto-Opening Fixed keyboard opening automatically multiple times when editing a new item.

Performance​

  • Scrolling Performance Significantly smoother and faster scrolling performance.

Stability​

  • Crashlytics Integration Integrated Firebase Crashlytics for improved crash reporting and diagnostics. Opt-out is available in Settings.
