What's New — SuperDuper

Week of Apr 5 2026

Refreshed Upcoming page. Items now show a brief summary below the title so you can see what each one’s about without tapping in. Matter sections collapse and expand smoothly, and the whole page loads with cleaner transitions.
You glance at the Upcoming page and see tomorrow’s events with one-line summaries — “Picture day, wear school shirt” and “Early pickup at 2:30” — without opening either one.
Calendar source labels. Items on your dashboard now show whether they came from an email or from Google Calendar. In multi-parent families, you can see whose inbox or calendar each item originated from.
Your daughter’s soccer game shows “Google Calendar” as its source with a link straight to the original event, while the permission slip below it traces back to a Gmail message.
Room for five in a family. Each family can now include up to five people — both parents, a grandparent, a nanny, a stepparent. Invite anyone who shares the load. If you try to add a sixth, you’ll get a clear note instead of a confusing error.
You invite your mother-in-law to join the family so she can see pickup times when she’s helping out on Wednesdays. She gets the invite, accepts, and your shared dashboard is exactly the same as yours.
Inbox import, finished for good. Once your past-emails import wraps up, the “Import Past Emails” button steps aside and a small banner confirms it’s done. No accidental re-imports, no second pass through messages you’ve already seen.
Sharper Week Ahead emails. The Sunday greeting now reads each event’s full description before writing about it — so when your kids are invited spectators at a black belt test, the email says exactly that, not that they’re testing themselves.
Fixes and polish. Malformed and encrypted PDF attachments are now skipped cleanly instead of derailing the rest of an email’s processing. Activity page filter chips and empty states now read “Trash” where they previously showed a placeholder name.

Week of Mar 29 2026

Relevancy feedback. Tell SuperDuper when something’s off. Tap “Improve relevancy” on any item to flag it as the wrong child, not relevant, or something else — and it learns from your corrections.
An email about a neighbor’s bake sale shows up under your daughter. Tap “Improve relevancy,” select “Wrong kid,” and pick the right one.
Recurring calendar events. Recurring events from Google Calendar now sync as individual events on your dashboard. Weekly soccer practice, monthly book club — the whole series appears, and changes to individual occurrences are tracked separately. Moving an event between calendars no longer makes it vanish, and series restructuring in Google Calendar is handled seamlessly without creating duplicates.
Your kid’s soccer practice is every Tuesday at 4pm. Each practice shows up as its own event, and when coach moves next week’s to Thursday, just that one updates.
Matter bulletins. The most urgent, actionable information for each matter now appears front and center at the top of the page. Each matter also gets a short narrative summary so you can get the full picture at a glance.
You open the “Spring Soccer” matter and right away see that next week’s practice moved to a different field. Below that, a quick recap of the season so far.
Browse all items. Tap the item count on any matter to see everything — events, tasks, FYIs — in a scrollable list. Complete tasks and acknowledge FYIs right from the sheet without navigating away.
A school matter has 12 items but only 3 show on the detail page. Tap the count and you can scroll through all 12, checking off permission slips as you go.
Cleaner matter details. Past events gray out and slide aside so upcoming items take center stage. Completed TODOs and acknowledged FYIs clear out after 72 hours. Older FYIs cycle out of the spotlight automatically, keeping your view focused on what’s current.
Tappable activity items. Items on the Activity feed now open the full detail view with the header image and all the context — instead of just a summary line.
Better weekly summaries. Your Week Ahead email no longer includes events that already happened by the time you read it on Sunday afternoon. The summary now covers Monday through Sunday.
More reliable email processing. Emails with attachments process faster, previously failed or rate-limited emails are automatically retried through the full pipeline, and batches no longer get stuck. Email filters are more lenient now, so fewer relevant messages slip through the cracks. Quick undo-sends in Gmail are handled gracefully.
Fixes and polish. Lists with just one extra item beyond the visible limit now show everything instead of hiding behind a “View All” button. Zoom calls and virtual meetings no longer show a map. Multi-day events stay on your dashboard for their full duration. “Happening now” labels are more accurate for ongoing events. Family preferences are preserved when new ones are added. Duplicate children during family setup are caught more reliably. The For You page now features a cover image. Layout and spacing refined throughout the app.

Week of Mar 22 2026

Google Calendar sync. Connect your Google Calendar and events sync in real time. Add something in Google Calendar and it shows up on your dashboard automatically — no manual entry, no waiting. If the connection ever stalls, it detects the problem and recovers on its own.
You add "Jake — dentist at 3pm Thursday" in Google Calendar. It lands on your SuperDuper dashboard within seconds, filed under Jake.
Scanned document support. Scanned PDFs from emails — permission slips, flyers, school forms — are now readable. If a PDF is a scan rather than typed text, the content gets extracted so nothing slips through.
The school emails a scanned permission slip as a PDF. SuperDuper reads it, pulls out the field trip date, and adds it to your dashboard.
Smarter search. Search now matches any of the words you type instead of requiring all of them, and results include related terms so you'll find things even when your wording doesn't match exactly.
Looking for "spring soccer"? You'll find it even if the matter is called "Soccer — Spring Season."
Parallax header images. Matter header images now scroll with a subtle parallax effect. They carry through when you tap into an individual item, with a smooth transition as you navigate back and forth. Images across the app load faster, too.
Smarter navigation. Each item now shows a pill linking back to its parent matter. The back button remembers where you came from — dashboard or matter — and takes you back there instead of guessing.
You're looking at Tuesday's soccer practice, tap the "Spring Soccer" pill, and you're back at the full matter. Hit back again and you're on your dashboard, right where you left off.
Gestures everywhere. Swipe gestures now work on FYIs, TODOs, and events — not just matters. Adaptive matter details are available from explore, too. And single-item matters take you straight to the item without an extra tap.
Better weekly summaries. Your Week Ahead email now knows which child each event, task, and FYI belongs to. No more guessing whose thing is whose.
Instead of "Soccer practice on Tuesday," you'll see "Emma has soccer practice on Tuesday" and "Jake's science project is due Wednesday."
Clearer family setup. The child discovery step now tells you exactly what to do — review each child and save before confirming. A counter shows how many are left, and draft children that were never reviewed get cleaned up automatically.
Faster email processing. Emails with attachments now process significantly faster. Attachments are extracted up front instead of one at a time during analysis, and emails are processed in a reliable serial pipeline that prevents timeouts on heavy inboxes.
Fixes and polish. Fixed an unclickable navigation area on matter screens. Restored the invite partner button that had gone missing. The calendar settings page now shows a loading indicator while fetching your calendars. Duplicate items from shared calendars are a thing of the past.

Week of Mar 15 2026

Redesigned onboarding. The setup flow for new families got a complete redesign. Cleaner steps, better flow, less friction between "I just signed up" and "I can see my week."
Your Week Ahead for everyone. The Sunday email summary is now on for all families by default. You'll get a rundown of the week's events, tasks, and anything that needs attention. Not your thing? One click to opt out in settings.
Co-parent reminder emails. Invited a co-parent who hasn't signed up yet? They'll get a friendly reminder so you don't have to nag them yourself.
You invited your partner last Tuesday. On Thursday they get a gentle nudge: "You've been invited to join your family on SuperDuper." One less thing on your plate.
Dashboard improvements. A handful of quality-of-life changes to the dashboard. Empty days are now hidden in the expanded agenda view so you're only looking at days that actually have something going on.
Better install prompt. The "add to home screen" prompt now explains that no app store download is needed, with a cleaner layout that's easier to act on.
Better on desktop. The app now fits properly on larger screens with sensible content boundaries instead of stretching edge to edge.
Fixes and polish. Single-event matters now show full event details instead of a blank card. "New" badges appear correctly on the activity page and within matter rows. Events from emails now land on the correct day regardless of your timezone. OAuth connection toasts show the right service name. Image and PDF attachments are detected more reliably from emails.

Week of Mar 8 2026

Whole new look. We redesigned... kind of everything. New navigation, swipe gestures, a dashboard that adapts to your family's actual life, cleaner detail views, a refreshed settings page, and an activity feed you can actually search. Same app. Way easier on the eyes (and thumbs).
Dark mode. The whole app now supports dark mode. Checking tomorrow's schedule at 11pm no longer requires sunglasses.
Your Week Ahead email. Every Sunday afternoon, you'll get an email with what's coming up: events, tasks, and anything that needs attention. Each kid's stuff is clearly labeled and everything links straight back to the app. Not your thing? One click to unsubscribe. No guilt trip.
Sunday at 2pm, you get: "Soccer practice is Tuesday at 4, the science fair project is due Wednesday, and that permission slip from last week? Still unsigned."
Custom header images. Each matter now gets its own unique header image. Makes it easier to tell "Spring Soccer" from "Dance Recital" from "That Fundraiser" at a glance. Don't love the one you got? Tap to generate a new one.
"Spring Soccer" might get a field at golden hour. "Dance Recital" gets stage lights. "School Fundraiser" gets... well, cookies.
Comments on matters. You can now leave notes directly on a matter. Drop context for your co-parent, jot down a reminder, or just bookmark a thought for later.
A note on the "Spring Soccer" matter: "Coach said cleats are too small — need new ones before Saturday's game."
Smarter install prompts. The "add to home screen" prompt used to ask once and then vanish forever if you dismissed it. Now it checks in a few more times with different messages. And if you're on Chrome for iPhone, you'll get instructions that match your actual browser instead of generic ones.
Better navigation between items and matters. Viewing a task or event? You can now tap to see the full matter it belongs to. Links and maps inside matters are easier to tap. Packing lists and event details now live right inside the event instead of floating off on their own.
A bunch of fixes. Task completion now shows who checked it off (so credit goes where it's due). Navigation counts actually match reality. Trashed items stay out of your dashboard. The activity page got a tune-up. Snoozed items stay snoozed.

Week of Mar 1 2026

Smarter duplicate handling. When both parents receive the same email from school or a coach, it's now processed once instead of twice. Both parents still see everything — just without the duplicates.
The school sends the spring newsletter to both of you. SuperDuper processes it once and links the relevant items to both accounts.
Times in your timezone. Events and tasks now show the correct time in your family's timezone everywhere — on the dashboard, in the spotlight, and in your layout. No more mental math from UTC.
Better error messages. When something goes wrong, you'll now see a clear message explaining what happened instead of a silent nothing. Not the most exciting update, but you'll appreciate it the one time you need it.
Matter-level feedback. You can now give feedback directly on a matter, not just individual items. Helpful when the grouping is off or something feels wrong about the whole cluster.
More accurate "new" badges. Items only show as "new" when they're genuinely new. Background updates no longer re-flag something you've already seen.
Branded error pages. Even our error pages got a makeover. If you ever hit one, you'll see the SuperDuper logo and a clear path back home instead of a generic server error.
Stale session recovery. Haven't opened the app in a while? It now picks up smoothly instead of showing an error. Just open it and go.

Week of Feb 22 2026

Google Calendar integration. Connect your Google Calendar to see scheduling conflicts, search existing events, and sync SuperDuper events directly to your calendar. You pick which calendar.
SuperDuper shows "Soccer practice overlaps with your dentist appointment on Thursday" before you even open Google Calendar.
Adaptive dashboard. The dashboard now arranges itself based on what's most relevant for your family right now. Urgent items surface, quieter stuff stays accessible but out of the way.
Move items between matters. Item grouped under the wrong matter? Move it to the right one. You can also rename matters to whatever makes sense to you.
Better search. Search now looks at titles, summaries, and descriptions. Multi-word queries work properly too — "spring soccer" finds items even if those words aren't next to each other.
"Wrong kid" feedback actually fixes it. Previously, the "wrong kid" button just logged your feedback. Now it actually reassigns the item to the correct child on the spot.
A basketball update lands under Emma instead of Noah. Tap "wrong kid," pick Noah, and it's fixed immediately.
Per-user snooze and acknowledgment. Snoozing a matter or acknowledging an FYI is now personal to you. Your co-parent's choices don't affect your view, and vice versa.
Smarter week-at-a-glance. Past events are greyed out. Events happening right now are highlighted. The date strip starts from today instead of a random mid-week point.
Spotlight shows multiple urgent items. When several things need your attention, the spotlight section now shows all of them instead of just one.
Gmail disconnected banner. If your Gmail connection drops for any reason, a banner lets you know so nothing falls through the cracks while you reconnect.
Dashboard stays in sync. Complete a task, acknowledge an FYI, or trash an item — the dashboard updates immediately instead of waiting for a refresh.
Fixes and polish. Tables in item descriptions render properly. "New" badges auto-clear after 30 seconds. Timeline dates in matter views are now in chronological order. The calendar connection page doesn't get cut off by the tab bar.

Week of Feb 15 2026

Formatted matter summaries. Matter summaries now render with proper formatting — bold text, links, lists, the works. No more walls of plain text.
Matters stick around during events. A matter used to vanish from your dashboard the moment an event's start time passed. Now it stays visible through the event's duration (plus a grace period), then rolls forward to the next upcoming item.
It's 4:15pm and soccer practice started at 4:00pm. "Spring Soccer" stays on your dashboard through practice so you can still tap in for details, pickup info, or that packing list.
"New" item badges. Items now show a "new" indicator based on when you last logged in, so you can quickly spot what showed up since you were last here.
Better search matching. Multi-word searches now match each word independently. "nba meet greet" finds "NBA Players Meet & Greet at OGP" without needing an exact phrase.
Cleaner shared events. When you share an event or add it to Google Calendar, formatting is now stripped so it looks clean instead of showing raw markdown syntax.
Smoother mobile scrolling. Fixed an issue where scrolling could get stuck at the edges of detail views on phones. Scroll away.

Week of Feb 8 2026

Snooze, trash, and acknowledge. Swipe left to snooze a matter you don't need right now. Swipe to trash things that aren't relevant. Acknowledge FYIs when you've seen them. Shake your phone to undo if you act too fast.
The dance recital is three weeks out. Swipe to snooze it. It'll come back when it's actually time to think about costumes.
Snoozed matters toggle. A toggle on the dashboard lets you show or hide your snoozed matters so you can always peek at what's on hold.
Promote suggestions to your dashboard. See something interesting in Explore? Tap to promote it to "For You" so it shows up on your main dashboard.
Pull to refresh. Pull down anywhere to refresh your dashboard or a matter detail view. Simple and satisfying.
Add to calendar. Event cards now have an "add to calendar" button so you can get events into your calendar quickly.
Attachments preserved. Email attachments like permission slips, flyers, and schedules are now saved and linked to the relevant items. No more digging through your inbox to find that PDF.
The coach sends a tournament schedule PDF. It shows up right on the "Spring Tournament" matter, ready to open.
Gmail activity in settings. The settings page now shows when emails were last processed and your connection status, so you always know things are working.
Smarter sorting. Items are now scored by relevance so the most important stuff surfaces first. Less scrolling, more knowing.
Better mobile experience. Fixed scrolling glitches, gesture conflicts, and layout issues on phones. Proper handling for notched screens. App icons look right on every platform.
Privacy notice on invitations. When inviting a co-parent, you'll see a clear explanation of how data sharing works in your family account.
Fewer duplicate items. Improved title matching and smarter processing mean the same event or task is far less likely to show up twice.

Week of Feb 1 2026

Matters. Related items are now grouped into "matters." Soccer practice, the gear email, and the carpool schedule all live together under one roof instead of floating as separate items. Multi-item matters expand to show everything; single-item matters look just like before.
"Spring Soccer" groups together Tuesday's practice, Thursday's game, the cleats reminder, and that email about picture day. One matter, one place.
Share anything. Tap the share button to send an event, task, or FYI to your co-parent (or anyone) via text, email, or whatever sharing apps are on your phone.
Shake to undo. Dismiss something by accident? Give your phone a shake within 30 seconds to bring it back. Works on iOS and Android.
Install as an app. SuperDuper can now be added to your home screen as a proper app. No app store required — just tap "add to home screen" when prompted.
Search. Search across your dashboard to find items quickly. Type a few words and results appear instantly.
In-app feedback. Rate items and leave feedback directly from the detail view. Report "wrong kid," flag inaccurate details, or tell us something's off. This is how we get better.
Animated page transitions. Moving between screens now has smooth animations instead of hard cuts. A small thing, but it makes the whole app feel more polished.
Setup improvements. You can now enter family details manually if auto-discovery doesn't get everything right. Enrolled activities are structured and editable. Child names are smarter about not repeating shared last names.
Auto-discovery found "Emma Johnson" and "Noah Johnson" but missed Liam? Tap "Enter Manually" to add him yourself.
Friendlier Gmail connect screen. The "connect your Gmail" page now explains clearly what we process (school and activity emails) and what we skip (work, personal, spam). Plus reassuring privacy language and a link to the full policy.
Backfill progress. After connecting your Gmail, a banner shows the progress of processing your existing emails so you know what's happening behind the scenes.
Editable family preferences. Customize your family's preferences in settings — what activities your kids are enrolled in, what's relevant, what's not.
Smoother invitations. First and last name are now optional when inviting a co-parent. Less friction, more getting them on board.
Fixes and polish. Fixed the first-time login flow. Tab bar no longer overlays content. Swipe-to-dismiss no longer fires twice. Delete account section is less prominent in settings (it's still there, just not staring at you).
