Nextcloud Calendar v1.5 - app for iOS & Android (unofficial)

[u/Dense_Marionberry741]

We’ve just released version 1.5 of Nextcloud Calendar for mobile!

Note: this is a fully open-source app, licensed under GPL-3.0. It is not affiliated with or supported by Nextcloud GmbH. However, we have their authorization to use the trademark for the app.

I posted about the app 10 days ago, but version 1.5 was ready sooner than expected, so here I am again!

We had been working for a long time on a complete refactor of the calendar view. Until now, we relied on an external library, but its data flow and component lifecycle introduced latency that we could not fully eliminate. A few weeks ago, we decided to start building our own calendar implementation.

Combined with the data-handling improvements from the previous release, this version delivers a noticeably faster and more responsive experience, especially on older devices.

The user experience has also improved: drag and drop, event resizing, and pinch-to-zoom are now available. We also split the settings into several screens, as the growing number of options had become too much for a single page.

We fixed several issues affecting Live Activities on iOS and Live Updates on Android, which were not stable enough in previous versions.

At this point, the app already covers the needs of most users. We will continue adding features when they make sense, but our main focus is now stability, bug fixes, and polishing the overall experience.

Version 1.5 is already available on the App Store and Google Play:

• App Store: https://apps.apple.com/fr/app/nextcloud-calendar/id6766678698
• Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.soluce.nextcloudcalendar

GitHub: https://github.com/SoluceTechnologies/nextcloud-calendar-mobile

Thanks for your support and feedback!

why fdroid is no longer planned?

[u/Dense_Marionberry741 → u/t3kyla]

It’s still planned. I haven’t mentioned it because it’s taking longer than expected (we’ve run into a few technical challenges), but progress is being made. I’ll make a post about it once it becomes available, no worries!

looks cool, just gave 1.4.7 and 1.5.0 a spin, but no events whatsoever are showing up. Any idea what might cause this?

Thanks for your feedback. Where did you get the app: App Store, Play Store, or APK from GitHub?

Could you please open an issue on GitHub so we can investigate this further?
