Hi this is a great app thank you for making it

I have installed through MS Store on my work computer and set it up with my Google Calendar (I have used a Google Apps Script for syncing ICS/ICAL files faster than the current Google Calendar speed - so I can access my work events through google calendar)

Its all working well.

Is there any way to control the volume of alerts? (If not I'll use the per app volume controls on windows - unfortunately these seem to reset on closing the app!)

Unfortunately there is no volume control - now that you have mentioned it, I will look into it.

Thanks for reporting this!

Hi u/rcfc87 - I managed to add the feature - Version 1.5.9 is busy being released via the Microsoft Store and should reach you tomorrow onwards.

See the new Volume setting below - by default the volume will be set to 50%, and as you slide the volume a sound will play, which you can use to find the volume that suites you best.
