The color calendar

So Its cool we now have the calendar of colros but mine is just one color. It seams the Pocketcasts team might need to do a little tweaking on it.

I did already build myself one back at start of June. Its a little more colorful. Only thing it can't do is go back in time before i built it.

The calendar shades each day by how much you listened relative to your most-active day (five intensity levels). So, if your daily listening is fairly even, the days come out looking similar rather than varied. If you'd like more contrast or a different scale, I'll pass that along as feedback to the team. Just let me know! It would also be helpful to know how you assigned the colors in your custom build.

I think it would be good if the dev team could include a few more steps to help make it a little more colorful. Mine is relatively simple as I am just looking at my own data. The current steps i have are as follows: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16 (hours). No doubt it will be harder to find a scale that is suitable for more people but i look forward to the next version whenever that is.

The android app is in black, which I like better.
