What's New In This Version:
Today, we're happy to announce our biggest update since we've introduced Sunrise for iPhone. Sunrise is now designed for your iPad, includes a new Week view and adds background updates.

● iPad
We've worked hard to bring the best Sunrise experience to your iPad. It's the most beautiful calendar everywhere now.
We are introducing two new visualisations: Week and Month. They make it easier to make plans from your iPad and navigate in time quickly.

● Week View (for iPhone too!)
This new visualisation makes it easier to see free-time between events, see your day at-a-glance, or find a time to get dinner with a friend next week.
Tap on the week icon next to the new event button to reveal it. The best part: it works perfectly in portrait mode.

A lot of people have tried to design a week view before, but we think that you'll enjoy the design of Sunrise better!


● Background Updates
Sunrise will now update in the background (every hour by default), so you won't need to open Sunrise to get the latest changes. Notifications will always be up to date.

You can download Sunrise Calendar from the App Store for free.
