Advanced schedules, email reminders, and a faster composer
This update is about making ReminderOS better at handling the reminders that do not fit a simple daily or weekly pattern.
You can now create more precise repeat schedules, turn important emails into reminders, keep the composer open when you are adding several reminders, and use redesigned settings sheets for email and calendar sync.

Advanced repeat schedules
ReminderOS now supports more calendar-aware repeat rules for reminders that follow real routines.
You can create schedules like:
- First weekday of every month
- Last weekday of every month
- First day or last day of the month
- First weekend or last weekend of the month
- First, second, third, fourth, or last weekday of the month
- First weekday or last weekday of every quarter
- First, second, third, fourth, or last weekday of every quarter
- Specific weekday rules such as the first Monday of every quarter
The Repeats sheet now groups these advanced options more clearly, shows upcoming occurrences with weekday labels, and keeps monthly and quarterly rules separate so it is easier to understand what you are choosing.

Turn emails into reminders
Email sync lets you turn selected emails into reminders, so important follow-ups do not stay buried in your inbox.
For example, you can star or label an email about a delivery, refund, appointment, client request, or travel plan and have ReminderOS create a reminder from it with the context you need.
The Emails settings sheet has also been redesigned to make the setup easier to scan. It now puts the source email, import trigger, reminder timing, reminder window, and background colour choices into a clearer layout.

Calendar sync improvements
The Calendars sheet has been redesigned to better match the rest of the app and make the available calendar actions clearer.
Calendar permissions are also handled more carefully. If calendar access has been denied, ReminderOS now guides you to Settings instead of getting stuck trying to show the permission prompt again.

Faster reminder creation
The reminder composer now supports multi-create, so you can create several reminders in a row without closing the composer.
When multi-create is enabled, the keyboard stays open after creating a reminder, making it faster to add several tasks quickly.
The composer also now shows enabled quick toggles, such as Urgent, Pinned, and Add to calendar, directly in the composer row. If you turn one off, it moves back into the overflow menu.

Clearer completed-reminder actions
The completed reminder countdown has been redesigned so it no longer changes the height of the reminder card.
The delete countdown now sits in the bottom-right of the card, with a stronger red treatment and no extra border, so it feels clearer without shifting the layout.

Refined reminder cards
Reminder cards now show advanced repeat schedules more accurately in both compact and expanded states.
If a reminder repeats on a rule like the first Monday of every quarter or the last weekday of each month, the card text now reflects that schedule instead of falling back to a simpler or incorrect repeat label.

More personalisation
Background colour choices have been expanded and better organised.
Colour pickers now group default, solid, and pastel colours, with text colour adjusted for readability on lighter and darker reminder backgrounds.

Privacy and analytics updates
The privacy policy has been updated to describe product analytics and optional email-to-reminder imports more clearly.
Analytics are used to understand product behaviour and improve features. Sensitive reminder content, calendar content, personal text, health data, financial data, and precise location are not sent to analytics.
Email sync remains optional and user-controlled. It only runs when you connect an account and enable the feature.

Smaller design refinements
This release also includes smaller polish across the app:
- The repeat shortcut buttons now match the surrounding button radius.
- The advanced repeat icon uses the wand-style icon.
- The composer action text now says Add to calendar instead of Calendar sync.
- Email and calendar sheets have more consistent loading states.
- Source email colour choices now use the expanded colour set.
- UK users see Customised while other locales see Customized.
Together, these changes make ReminderOS better at the kinds of reminders that need context, preparation, repetition, or a more specific schedule.
