About Horizon: Calendar Highlights
Your Apple Calendar, intelligently organized. Horizon is the smart companion for Apple Calendar. It reads your existing events, automatically organizes them into meaningful categories, and surfaces what matters most, so you spend less time managing your schedule and more time living it. No new calendar to maintain. No accounts to create or connect. Horizon works on top of the calendars you already use, adding a layer of intelligence that Apple Calendar doesn't have. Smart Categories - Horizon automatically classifies your events into 19 categories, Health, Work, Family, Travel, Social, Finance, and more using on-device intelligence. Every event gets a category, a color, and context. You can customize categories, add your own keywords, or override any classification with a tap. Daily & Weekly Briefings - Start your morning with a glance at what's ahead: today's timeline, weather, your next event spotlight, how your time breaks down by category, and open slots in your day. Weekly briefings give you the bigger picture, your busiest days, category distribution, highlights, and scheduling conflicts. Find Free Time - Looking for time to exercise, focus, or catch up with a friend? Horizon scans your schedule and finds available slots that match your preferences then lets you book them in one tap. Duplicate Cleanup - The same meeting showing up on two calendars? Horizon automatically detects and merges duplicate events so your schedule stays clean and accurate. Quick Categorize - Triage uncategorized events fast. Horizon suggests a category based on what it's learned, and you confirm or change it with a single tap. Widgets That Work - Home screen and Lock Screen widgets keep your schedule visible without opening the app. See your next event, today's briefing, or your week at a glance. Smart Notifications - Reminders that understand context. A doctor's appointment gets a reminder a week ahead. A work meeting gets one 30 minutes before. Each category has its own timing and you can adjust them all. Built for Privacy - All intelligence runs entirely on your device. Your calendar data never leaves your iPhone. No servers, no tracking, no accounts. Designed for Apple Calendar - Horizon is purpose-built for iCloud, Exchange, and CalDAV calendars synced through Apple Calendar. Deep integration means fast syncs, reliable data, and zero setup. Just grant calendar access and Horizon handles the rest.
What’s new
Version 1.5.6 · Updated May 23, 2026
What's New in 1.5.6 Life Patterns improvements Tap any stat card in Life Patterns to drill into a detailed breakdown — see your weekly event history charted over time or explore a full per-category count. A new Events list lets you browse every event on a selected day directly from the heatmap. The Insights section now surfaces richer analysis of your patterns. A new Life Patterns settings page (Settings → Life Patterns) lets you control exactly how much history is analyzed and whether upcoming events are included. Sync window control A new Sync Window settings page (Settings → Calendars → Sync Window) lets you choose how far back and how far forward Horizon stores events locally — helpful if you want more history or are managing storage on your device. Open event locations in Maps Events with a physical address now include an "Open in Maps" option in the long-press context menu. Performance & reliability Widget updates are now batched so bulk changes (like a full sync) trigger a single refresh instead of stacking them — this noticeably reduces background work after large syncs. Startup and app-foreground transitions are faster: calendar seeding, CloudKit import checks, and tracker maintenance now run off the main thread so the dashboard loads without waiting on them. Bug fixes - Fixed a bug where the animated dot on Journey Progress would cut straight across the trail instead of following the curve during progress updates - Fixed multi-account calendar display in the event editor — accounts now group correctly when you have more than one calendar provider connected - Several fixes to the data migration pipeline for reliability on first launch
