Last update:
Bigger widgets, and your next date front and center. Extra large widgets: Upcoming and Contact Spotlight now come in extra large sizes, including the new tall one in iOS 27. A whole screen of dates, or a whole screen for one person. Part of Premium, like the large widget. Featured next date in widgets: On large and extra large widgets, the soonest date can take pride of place, with the contact's photo, their name, what the date is and how long until it arrives. On by default on the extra large sizes, off on large, so widgets you have already set up stay as you left them. There is a switch in the widget's own settings either way. Widget lists grouped by month: A long list of dates in a widget now reads as months rather than a wall of rows, with the month name above each run. Also a switch in the widget's settings. Fixed: On iOS 26.0 and 26.1 the expanded view of a KeepDates notification never appeared, because that part of the app required a newer version of iOS than the app itself.
