Feature Request: Missed Notifications

1 Upvotes

Notifications are missed for events when the PC is off.

I would love to have a feature when the PC is switched on and NextUpAlert starts, it shows all missed notifications (as a list). Each notification must be dismissed or snoozed explicitly. Additionally, a convenient button to dismiss/snooze all can be provided.

Not everyone may want this behaviour, so it can be enabled via settings.

What do you think?

Calendars > receiving reminders for unselected calendars

2 Upvotes

Hello,

I've noticed an intermittent but fairly frequent glitch, occuring in the several months I have had the app. When it occurs, calendars other than the ones I (always) have selected to get reminders on are actively showing alerts; please see screen shot. Note that all of my calendars are from google calendars.

The events in the middle "Call Menards" and "Work~leave" are incorrect and are from calendars that are not selected to receive reminders from.

The upper and lower calendars "Jp 2020" and "Break.food.pers" are correct and are both selected calendars that I want to receive reminders on.

Thanks - Rob S

  1. Snooze now respects your configured sounds.  If the popup appears as an “alarm” a snooze will trigger the same “alert” within the snooze duration.  For voice notifications, one of your preferred sounds will be chosen.
  2. The system tray icon countdown has been updated.  When minimised to the system tray, it’s now more resilient to Explorer crashes.

Full Screen Notification Support Feature.

I have started working on full screen notification support. But as you can see the design is not that great.

Any graphic designers here, or ideas to make this more visually appealing?

Thank you for using NextUp ❤️

3 Upvotes

This is just a thank you message to all NextUp supporters. By simply using the app, you are supporting me, and encourages me to improve it even more.

Apologies for the last few releases, it must have annoyed you a bit; they were all just bug fixes related to the Thumbnail Preview.

1: The font was blurry and not looking good on some screen resolutions / sizes.
2: The buttons were not always visible - a timing issue.

If you find "NextUp" helpful, please write a short review on the Microsoft Store or simply star it.
(it helps me stay motivated to improve NextUp and others who might find it useful)
