• InstaCal is ready for iPhone Duo. Open it and the calendar and agenda sit side by side around the fold, with your choice of split and where the buttons go. Fold or unfold and whatever you were in the middle of stays put. • Tap a flight number in an event for its live status, with gates and times. • Quick Add colors the words it understood as you type. Tap one to change just that detail, like the time or the place. • Start time, then countdown: Live Countdown and widgets show an event's start time, then switch to a countdown a few minutes before. A Begin Countdown notification at the switch starts the Live Countdown, and you can add any event to Countdowns from its editor. • StandBy and the Smart Stack: Next Event, Now + Next, Countdowns and the Live Activity show a big countdown. And Desk, a quiet full-screen clock with your next event for a phone on a stand, in Settings › Upcoming › Desk. • Pick a different calendar icon for your Home Screen in Settings › Appearance. • Fixes: sheets and a half-typed Quick Add stay put when you rotate or resize; Quick Add hands back the field as soon as you press Return; meeting alerts follow your Alert Calendars and fire once for a meeting in two calendars; swiping to delete no longer opens a Join link; events past midnight show their end time on the day they end; countdowns round up; Duplicate opens a copy; Quick Add in French and Catalan keeps "8h30".
