Features & Tmrw's Launch
|
I usually only send one email/month, because I know how precious your time is and most updates aren't urgent ... but I'm breaking the rules for three reasons: 1) Compass is launching on Product Hunt tomorrow. PH gives small teams a chance to reach a big audience. It's also a fun way to celebrate and engage with the community. Our launch page goes live in 8 hours, but you can watch the 90-sec demo now for a sneak peek: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ia-rYanErzs. If you've never tried out Product Hunt, this could be a good excuse to explore what's out there. 2) New features. You can now link multiple Google accounts in Compass. Shortcuts also got more powerful. Search "Practice shortcuts" from the command palette to see what I mean. 3) Tomorrow is August 14. I'll share why that day is important in tomorrow's email. |

PART I: PRODUCT Compass Calendar got a lot better last month. Simpler. Compass used to have tasks, someday events, and regular events. Almost no one used the first two, so they had to go. Now it’s all about events, baby. Compass Calendar is finally at peace with being … a calendar. Sub-calendars. ALL your events from ONE google account are finally visible in Compass. Type A users with a separate calendar for each side project rejoice. Light theme. An inky, calm alternative to dark default....
