UX Upgrades | June Update
|
Compass got a little better last month, especially the UX. It feels smoother. I could get into the weeds about the layouts, grids, pointers, and geometry that come together to make that work. Instead, I’ll just link the PR for the curious. It looks better. We made things subtler so that you can focus on what really matters: your schedule. The sidebar got narrower, icons smaller, and the colors cooler. Here’s how it looks: This might seem like an underwhelming update, especially when anyone with a Claude account can try to one-shot a new app. But these are the little details worth sweating. After all, most of the time you spend in your calendar is either looking at your schedule or making minor adjustments. We’re going to keep refining until Compass is the best place for that.
