What's new

Latest updates, fixes, and improvements to ACOD.

v1.4.0April 28, 2026
  • NewBulk edit sync rules — select multiple rules and update shared settings all at once, with source and target calendar filters to find rules quickly
  • NewNew rule options: filter by organizer (only events you organized or were invited to), skip private and confidential events, exclude short events under a set duration, and add an exclusion keyword to block specific events from syncing
  • NewOut of Office custom title — set a custom display name for OOO events on target calendars (e.g. Vacation or Away)
  • NewMirror source free/busy — synced events now respect the original event's free/busy status by default instead of always blocking time
  • NewNew sync rules now process immediately when created instead of waiting for the next scheduled sync
  • NewRule Examples — click the Rule Examples button on any sync rule to see visual before/after examples of each setting
  • NewOutlook Tips — setup guide and Microsoft Teams notification tips now available on any Outlook or independent calendar
  • ImprovedEditing a sync rule now opens in a centered popup instead of scrolling to the bottom of the page
  • ImprovedTag style examples update automatically based on your selected detail level
  • ImprovedShow As options reorganized — Mirror source is now the default, with Always block time and Always show only as alternates
  • ImprovedCalendar event cleanup is more reliable — events that were not removed due to a timeout are automatically retried every 6 hours

  • FixEvents from Microsoft calendars now appear at the correct time regardless of the calendar owner's timezone setting

v1.3.1April 13, 2026
  • FixIndependent calendar feeds handle brief connection dropouts more gracefully — a temporary network blip is less likely to show up as a failed sync.

v1.3.0April 11, 2026
  • NewACOD is now live — open to everyone. Start a 14-day free trial. Cancel anytime before day 15 and you won't be charged.
  • NewPaid plans are available — Pro ($5/mo) and Unlimited ($10/mo), including annual billing options.
  • ImprovedWhen an administrator grants you complimentary access, your account now honors the full length of that access.
  • ImprovedDuring your free trial, what you see on your account matches the plan and features included in that trial.
  • FixReminder emails near the end of a grace period now send when they're supposed to.
  • FixWhen a grace period fully ends, the notification about removed calendars is delivered reliably.

v1.2.0April 10, 2026
  • NewNew How it works page with an interactive walkthrough of three real-world sync setups — blocking personal time on work calendars, combining multiple work calendars into one view, and running a full mesh across organizations.
  • NewAnimated conflict story — watch a double-booking play out across calendars with clear highlights and how ACOD resolves it.
  • NewOptional-attendee events can be excluded from sync and are called out clearly in the walkthrough.
  • NewIf you're already subscribed or trialing, the marketing page points you straight to your dashboard instead of asking you to sign up again.
  • ImprovedSite navigation simplified — How it works replaces the old overview link, clutter removed, and admin access is easier to find next to Dashboard on desktop.
  • ImprovedClearer, tighter wording across marketing pages.

v1.1.0April 2, 2026
  • NewAdvanced sync rule options — control event colors on Google calendars, visibility, Focus Time and Out of Office handling, optional-attendee behavior, and importance-based filtering for Outlook calendars.
  • NewRSVP handling — choose how declined, tentative, and no-response events appear on target calendars. Declined events are skipped by default.
  • NewMirror source free/busy — optionally follow each source event's own busy/free signal instead of relying only on your rule's Show as setting.
  • FixFixed an issue where only some events were syncing for Microsoft calendars with many events.
  • FixFixed an issue where only some events were syncing for Google calendars with very full calendars in the sync window.
  • ImprovedAdvanced options live in a collapsible section with a gear control. An orange “customized” badge appears when any advanced setting is on.
  • ImprovedClear warning when a rule mixes different calendar types — advanced options step aside so you can configure each destination appropriately.

v1.0.0March 27, 2026
  • NewInitial release — sync events between Google Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, and independent calendars using meeting invites, with tags, detail levels, and how far ahead to sync.
  • NewBroadcast and collect flows — send one source to many targets, or combine many sources into one calendar.
  • NewIndependent calendars — works with any inbox that accepts invites so you don't have to share full calendar login access.
  • NewPer-rule controls — tag style, detail level (busy block, title only, full detail), show as free or busy, horizon length, and whether reminders copy over.
