Changelog

New updates and improvements to Nexto, most recent first.

May 2026

v1.17.0

Task Dependencies & Completion Blocking

Create task dependencies to enforce workflow order — mark tasks as "blocked by" to prevent completion until their dependencies are done.

  • NewAdd dependencies to tasks by marking them as "blocked by" other tasks — the scheduler respects the order automatically.
  • NewBlocked tasks display a lock icon across all views (calendar, kanban, task lists, zen mode) so you know at a glance what's waiting.
  • NewCompletion button becomes disabled with a "Blocked" state showing a lock icon and tooltip: "Complete the blocking tasks first".
  • ImprovedCalendar event blocks show an amber tint when blocked so blocking dependencies are visually obvious.
  • ImprovedOnce all blocking tasks are completed, the completion button becomes available automatically.

May 2026

v1.16.0

Multiple Google Calendars & Color-Coded Events

Choose exactly which Google Calendars to import and see at a glance which calendar each event belongs to.

  • NewCalendar selector lets you enable or disable individual Google Calendars — only events from selected calendars appear on your schedule.
  • NewEach Google Calendar event now shows a color dot matching its source calendar, so you can tell them apart at a glance.
  • ImprovedCalendar colors are fetched directly from Google and shown in the selector menu alongside each calendar name.

May 2026

v1.15.0

Easily move your appointments from other apps into Google Calendar.

April 2026

v1.13.0

Event Resize & Faster Interactions

Resize calendar events by dragging their bottom edge, plus faster app performance with optimized auth and background scheduling.

  • NewGoogle Calendar events can now be dragged and dropped to reschedule them, just like tasks.

  • ImprovedApp feels snappier — auth tokens are cached in memory so API calls no longer wait for session checks.

April 2026

v1.12.0

Continue Tomorrow — Day Blocking

Block the rest of your day with one click and let the scheduler push all remaining tasks to tomorrow.

  • NewMoon icon on today's calendar column header — click it to instantly block the remaining working hours and reschedule all pending tasks to the next available day.
  • NewDay-block events appear as a distinct grey hatched overlay on the calendar so it's clear the window is reserved.
  • NewDeleting a day-block automatically re-runs auto-schedule so tasks reclaim the freed slots.

April 2026

v1.11.0

Google Calendar Full CRUD & Click-to-Create

Create and edit Google Calendar events directly from the calendar view — plus click any time slot to choose to create new events.

  • NewClick on an empty time slot in the calendar to choose to create a new Google Calendar event or task with a streamlined form.

April 2026

v1.10.1

Recurring Task Completion Fix

Completing a session on a recurring task no longer permanently kills the task.

April 2026

v1.10.0

Manually Pinned Tasks

Tasks dragged onto the calendar are now pinned in place — auto-schedule will warn you before moving them.

  • NewDragging a task onto the calendar (or moving an existing session) marks it as "manually pinned", anchoring it to that time slot.
  • NewAuto-schedule now warns you when pinned tasks would be rescheduled, letting you choose which ones to keep fixed.
  • NewThe task edit dialog shows a "Manually pinned" toggle so you can pin or unpin any task at any time.

v1.9.0

Status Kanban Board

The Kanban board is now organised by task status with drag-and-drop to move tasks between columns.

  • NewKanban columns are now "Not Started", "In Progress", and "Completed" — reflecting actual task status instead of project.
