What's new

Reliable one-click updates — The Update button in the menu bar now brings Sparkle’s update window forward on the first click.

Easier installation — The Dayline disk image now opens with a clear drag-to-Applications layout.

Create Apple Calendar events — Click the + beside Calendar to create a timed or all-day event in any enabled writable Apple calendar, with dates chosen from the same graphical calendar used across Dayline's creation forms.

All-day events — Turn on Show all-day events in Settings → Calendar to include all-day events in today's agenda and the expandable tomorrow section.

Focused meeting alerts — Turn on Only alert for meetings with links in Settings → Calendar to reserve full-screen alerts for events with a recognized video-call join link.

Faster, more reliable app testing — Behind the scenes, Dayline's full native test run is substantially faster while preserving typed Markdown and calendar interaction coverage.

Delete Apple Reminders — Swipe a writable Apple Reminder to reveal the trash action, or use its right-click menu, then confirm to permanently delete it.

Reliable issue-row swiping — Linear issues, Apple Reminders, and notes now reveal their right-side destructive action with the natural trackpad gesture without native horizontal scroll bars appearing across the rows.

Feedback service migration — Dayline's feedback rate limiting now uses the migrated Cloudflare service so feedback submissions continue working normally.

Apple Reminders access — Approving Reminders access now works correctly in signed Dayline builds, so connected lists load normally instead of continuing to show the System Settings permission warning.

Apple Reminders — Connect Apple Reminders in Settings → Accounts, choose the lists you want to see, and use Reminders beside Linear and GitHub or on its own. Preview reminders with Space, update completion, priority, and due dates from the menu, or press ⌃⌥⌘R anywhere to create one with notes, a list, priority, and date or time.

Snoozable meeting alerts — Full-screen meeting alerts now show the current time and include a Snooze button. Choose the default snooze duration in Settings → Calendar.

Safer pre-release testing — Behind the scenes, Dayline Dev now provides an isolated, production-like app for validating permissions and integrations without touching the installed release.

Polished Markdown notes — Note titles now show the rendered first line without Markdown markers, the editor uses the system font, its controls stay clear of your text, and a single opening bracket remains literal while typing.

Native update flow — The menu-bar Update button now opens Sparkle’s standard update window so you can review, install, and relaunch normally, while updates staged for quit remain visible until they are installed or skipped.

Cleaner menu scrolling — Unwanted scroll bars no longer cut across issue and note rows. Right-click menus keep cancel and delete actions available without exposing those scroll bars.

Formatting shortcuts — Format selected note text with familiar shortcuts: ⌘B for bold, ⌘I for italics, and ⌘K for links. The Format menu also includes strikethrough, inline code, headings, quotes, numbered lists, and bullet lists.

Reliable Markdown notes — Longer Markdown notes now keep all of their text and render headings, emphasis, links, quotes, code, and bullet lists consistently without exposing stray formatting markers.

Apple Calendar — Bring local Apple Calendar events into your agenda alongside Google Calendar. Connect it in Settings → Accounts, choose exactly which calendars to show, and disconnect whenever you want.

Markdown notes — Notes now style headings, bold, italics, links, quotes, lists, and code as you type. You can also keep a note above other windows from the note editor.

Quick previews — Hover a calendar event, Linear issue, or GitHub issue and press Space to preview the important details without leaving Dayline.

Issue-row details — Choose which status, priority, due date, project, label, and assignee details appear under Linear and GitHub issues in Settings → Issues.

Linear and GitHub issue creators now open with a clean form and offer Create more so you can file several issues in succession.

Fixed menu shortcuts (S, P, A, L, C) on issue rows no longer working after the menu had been closed and reopened. Shortcuts now keep working for the whole session — no more app restarts.

Crash diagnostics — Export a privacy-conscious diagnostics ZIP from Settings → General, or optionally attach one when reporting a bug. Shared diagnostics are linked from the public GitHub issue and automatically deleted after 30 days.

Fixed full-screen meeting alerts sometimes crashing Dayline after being dismissed, particularly on macOS 27 beta.

Improved status-menu keyboard handling and added release debug symbols so future crash reports are easier to diagnose.

GitHub issues — See and create GitHub issues right next to your Linear ones. Connect GitHub in Settings → Accounts with a secure device sign-in — no passwords or tokens to paste — pick the repositories you care about, and flip between the Linear and GitHub tabs in the menu.

Full-screen meeting alerts — A calm full-screen alert with a live countdown appears when a meeting starts — join with one click or dismiss with Esc. Turn it on and set how early it shows in Settings → Calendar.

Issue filters — Choose per provider whether the menu shows only issues assigned to you or every open issue across your selected Linear teams and GitHub repositories, in Settings → Issues.

Issue actions — Hover any Linear or GitHub issue in the menu and press a hotkey to change its status, priority, due date, labels, or assignees. Pick your keys in Settings → Shortcuts.

GitHub issue editor — Press ⌃⌥⌘G from anywhere to file a GitHub issue with repository, assignee, and label pickers. Set a default repository in Settings → Issues.

Settings, redesigned — A System Settings-style window with a sidebar and search across every option — General, Accounts, Calendar, Issues, Notes, and Shortcuts. Dayline now shows a Dock icon while any of its windows is open.

Menu sections — Hide the calendar, issues, or notes sections from the menu with the “Show … in menu” toggles in Settings.

Public changelog — Every release, explained, at dayline.robin.build/changelog — also linked from Settings → About.

The Linear issue creator now offers the states, estimates, projects, and labels of the team you picked.

Behind the scenes: release-pipeline hardening, repository security defaults, and automated code review.

Update controls — Settings → About now shows your exact version and build, a Check for Updates button, and an “Install updates automatically” toggle so Dayline can quietly keep itself current.

Hardened the release pipeline and protected automatic update publishing.

Global shortcuts — Press ⌃⌥⌘N for a new note or ⌃⌥⌘L for a new Linear issue — from anywhere, even when Dayline is in the background. Record your own in Settings → Shortcuts.

Linear issue editor — Rebuilt with colored pickers for state, priority, assignee, and labels, plus a graphical due-date picker.

Due dates — Hover a Linear issue and press the hotkey to set or clear its due date from a native calendar popover.

Copy actions — Copy a hovered issue’s link or its suggested git branch name with one hotkey — pick your favorite in Settings.

Creation defaults — New Linear issues start with your preferred team, state, assignee, and labels already filled in.

Anonymous feedback — Submit feedback right from the app — it lands as a public GitHub issue, no account needed.

Linear issue lists now load in pages, so long backlogs stay fast.

Refreshed the menu header with the Dayline wordmark and a new website social preview.

Behind the scenes: releases are now resumable and much more reliable.

Automatic updates — Dayline checks for new versions and installs them for you — no more re-downloading from the website.

Removed the status menu’s scroll indicator for a cleaner look.

Multiple Google accounts — Connect more than one Google account and pick calendars per account — Settings → Accounts keeps them side by side.

Dayline on the web — dayline.robin.build is live, with downloads, the Homebrew command, and the legal bits.

Polished status menu spacing.

More resilient release notarization.

Direct sign-in — Connect Google and Linear inside the app with secure OAuth — no gcloud or Linear CLI installs required anymore.

Current meeting in the menu bar — The meeting you’re in stays pinned next to the clock until it ends — so you always know what’s now, not just what’s next.

Quick notes — Jot things down without leaving the menu — create, edit, reorder, and delete notes, with the first line as the title. Everything is stored only on your Mac.

Linear issues from the menu — Create issues with team and assignee pickers, change states, bump priority, or swipe a row to cancel an issue — no browser detour.

Now-playing highlight — The event happening right now gets a subtle green highlight, so it stands out from what’s next.

Fixed Google and Linear sign-in detection and added a Launch at Login setting.

First public release — Today’s Google Calendar agenda, your active Linear issues, and what’s next — all in one quiet menu bar app.
