Releases.

What changed, in order. I ship in small, named increments and document the ones worth knowing about.

• 2026-10-19

  Import from Excel, and your work week in Settings

  • ·Importing a spreadsheet now lives on your Account page, under Data, beside the export. Download the Excel template, fill it in, save it as CSV, and upload it. Dates are written month first, like 03-28-2027, and the dashes are optional.
  • ·Your work week has moved to Settings. Pick the days you work there, once. Add dates keeps the one-off days off, like holidays and closures.
  • ·A Get started page puts the first steps in one place. Load the demo data, upload your own deadlines, or add your first one. Open it from your Account page.
• 2026-10-14

  Due times that count, and reminders that leave you time to act

  • ·Add a due time and the deadline is due at that time. Its card reads “Overdue” the moment the time passes. A deadline without a time is due until the end of its day, as before.
  • ·Reminders leave you time to act. On a deadline with a due time, every reminder is sent at least 6 hours before it, and reminders stop once a deadline is due.
  • ·Reminder emails now show the due time with your time zone, how many working days you have left, and how many tasks are still open.
  • ·Only the reminders that can still be sent in time are offered, on the card and when you add a deadline. One you picked earlier that can no longer send stays in view, crossed out, so you can take it off.
  • ·Times show your time zone by the name you know, like PDT or EST.
• 2026-10-13

  A clear mark on everything On Hold, and an outside check on your reminders

  • ·Every row on On Hold now shows “Reminders off” with a crossed-out bell, so you can see at a glance that a deadline you set aside sends no reminders. Reactivate it and its reminders start again.
  • ·Your reminders now have an outside check. A monitor that runs apart from the app checks that the reminder job runs every hour, and raises an alert if a run is missed. If sending pauses briefly, any reminder due in the gap goes out as soon as it resumes.
  • ·If your region stopped changing its clocks in 2026, your reminders still go out at the hour you set after November 1, and your day turns over at midnight. Deadlinewatch applies the new rules itself instead of waiting for the standard time-zone data to catch up.
• 2026-10-06

  A way back into your account, and a clearer deletion notice

  • ·Locked out? The sign-in page now links to a short guide. If you still have the email address on your account, a sign-in link reaches your account however you signed up, Google and GitHub included.
  • ·Lost that email address entirely? Write from your new one and your account can be moved to it. A notice goes to the old address first and the move happens after 48 hours, so the account holder can stop a change they did not ask for. Your deadlines stay in your account the whole time and are never sent by email.
  • ·Asking to delete your account now brings a notice that says exactly that, with the deletion date, how to export your deadlines first, and how to change your mind before then.
• 2026-08-05

  A stated capacity, so nothing is ever left out quietly

  • ·An account can have up to 1,000 active deadlines. Completed deadlines and anything On Hold don't count toward that number, so finishing something or setting it aside frees room straight away.
  • ·The limit is checked when a deadline is added rather than when it is displayed, which means your Dashboard and Forecast always show every active date you have. Add dates shows where you stand well before you get close.
  • ·Importing a spreadsheet that would not fit now says so up front, with both numbers, and imports nothing rather than filling to the brim and leaving the rest behind.
  • ·Recurring series are created up to 2 years ahead at a time and prompt you to renew when they run low, instead of generating decades of dates that were always going to shift.
  • ·Streams have a stated ceiling too, up to 100 at a time, because every one of them shows in the picker. Archiving a stream you no longer use frees a slot and nothing inside it is lost.
  • ·The long stream lists now scroll inside their own panel rather than pushing the rest of the form down the page.
• 2026-08-04

  Days you do not work, and dates that cannot move

  • ·Set the days work is not anticipated, on their own or as a stretch, and set your working week once, because a weekend is not fixed. They are blacked out on your calendars, and any deadline that falls on one is listed so you can reconcile it, keeping it there or moving it to the working day before. Nothing is ever moved for you.
  • ·Lock a date that is not yours to change. A locked deadline shows a red padlock beside its due date, is drawn as a square rather than a circle on the Forecast, and refuses a drag out loud rather than springing back. One click unlocks it.
  • ·The Forecast heatmap now pages backward and forward about 9 months either way, so you can look over a quarter you have finished or well past your current outlook.
  • ·Snoozing a deadline no longer stops its reminders. Anything still on your dashboard is reminded about, and only work you set aside goes quiet, so a snooze you forget to wake still leaves its reminders running.
  • ·Importing a spreadsheet has moved to Add dates, alongside everything else that puts a date in your list, and it now tells you how many of the imported dates fall on days off.
• 2026-07-04

  Recurring sets that end on your terms, and a fuller export

  • ·When a recurring series is winding down, its card names the date it ends and prompts you to renew, like "Quarterly, ends Jan 15. Renew?", so a set never runs out on you by surprise.
  • ·Ending a series from a date forward now keeps the ones you already finished. Your record of what was filed stays put.
  • ·Export your deadlines to a spreadsheet and the completion dates come back exactly as they were when you re-import, so a year of history keeps its real order.
  • ·A round of reliability fixes across reminders, snoozing, and the trial emails, so what the app tells you matches what it does.
• 2026-07-02

  Undo a completed deadline, and dates that fall on the right day

  • ·Marked something complete by accident? A brief Undo appears right after, so a stray checkmark is easy to take back.
  • ·Snoozing and rescheduling now pick the right day in your own timezone, and a reminder you set is scheduled for the right day, even on a deadline you add just a few days out.
  • ·Email reminders are a clear on/off toggle in settings now, and switching them no longer resets the send time.
  • ·Sign out works reliably again.
• 2026-07-01

  Cleaner reminders, and tidier streams

  • ·Delete a stream you no longer need, right from settings. Old ones you'd rather keep now tuck behind a collapsed Archived list, so a long history of past clients stays out of the way.
  • ·Reminders are steadier. Move a deadline further out and its reminder comes back on its own, and each card shows the reminder that's actually coming next, not one whose day has already passed.
  • ·The deadline card got a round of polish. The quick-action panels close when you click away, the controls line up at one size, and the snooze options show the exact date each one ends.
• 2026-06-30

  A faster, more responsive dashboard · email reminders that don't over-promise

  • ·The dashboard controls now respond the instant you click. Setting a priority, renaming a deadline, changing its date, snoozing, and picking a stream all take effect immediately, instead of pausing while they save.
  • ·Moving between pages is snappier, with no brief blank while the next page loads. That covers the dashboard, Forecast, On Hold, Completed, and settings.
  • ·Add a deadline sooner than your reminder's lead time and the form now shows the reminders that can still be sent, and says so plainly, instead of quietly setting one that can't fire.
  • ·A recurring deadline now shows how long the series runs on its card, like "Monthly, through Jul 6, 2026", so you see when a repeating set is about to run out.
  • ·Saving a setting (your timezone, your reminder send time) keeps your choice on screen right away, instead of briefly flicking back to the previous value.
• 2026-06-29

  A due time, not just a due date

  • ·Add an optional time of day to any deadline, set right next to the date on the full form. The card shows it beside the due date, like "2:05 PM (PDT)", and a tap lets you change or clear it.
  • ·The time keeps the timezone you set it in. Change your account timezone later and a deadline you entered in Pacific still reads Pacific, so a fixed cutoff never drifts.
  • ·Two deadlines on the same day now sort by their time, with the timed ones first.
• 2026-06-23

  Smoother on a phone

  • ·On your phone, swipe right to open the menu and swipe left to close it. Start the swipe away from the edge of the screen.
  • ·Fixed a scroll freeze that could lock up a page on a phone after moving between sections. The whole site stays scrollable now.
  • ·A round of small layout fixes across the smaller screens so the daily surfaces read cleanly on a phone.
• 2026-06-22

  A faster new-deadline form · make any deadline recurring from its card

  • ·The new-deadline form leads with the two things that matter, the name and the due date, and keeps priority, recurring, the email reminder, the stream, and notes one tap away.
  • ·Turn an existing one-off into a recurring series straight from its card, without re-creating it.
  • ·Add a quick to-do checklist to a deadline as you create it, not just after.
• 2026-06-21

  Recurring deadlines

  • ·Set a deadline to repeat weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly, and pick how many. Every occurrence is created up front as a real, dated entry you can edit or remove on its own.
  • ·Monthly and yearly repeats lock to a fixed day, so the 31st falls on the true last day of every month with no slide to the 28th.
  • ·Nothing runs behind your back. The set is exactly what you see, and changing or deleting one date never disturbs the others.
• 2026-06-17

  Clickable links in your notes

  • ·Paste a web address into a deadline's notes or description and it turns into a link you can tap. The read view shows the live link, and a tap drops back into editing.
• 2026-06-16

  On Hold and Completed surfaces · a longer Forecast

  • ·Every deadline now has one clear home. Active ones stay on the dashboard, finished ones move to Completed, and anything you set aside waits on On Hold until you bring it back.
  • ·The On Hold count rides in the navigation, so set-aside work stays visible instead of disappearing.
  • ·Filter the dashboard by more than one stream at once, then add a deadline in a single line with the quick-add bar.
  • ·The Forecast reaches further out. See the next 90 days, 6 months, or a full year as a workload curve over a Heatmap calendar.
• 2026-06-15

  Email reminders, on by default

  • ·Every new deadline gets an email reminder 3 days ahead, on by default. Set as many lead times as you like per deadline, and choose the hour they send.
  • ·Reminder settings now live on the deadline itself, set when you create it and changed from the card any time after.
  • ·A daily self-check looks independently for any reminder that should have gone out and didn't, and flags it for follow-up.
• 2026-06-07

  A reference table under the Forecast · a steadier reschedule gesture

  • ·A sortable table below the Forecast lists every deadline in view, by due date or by stream. Hover a row and its day on the calendar pulses, so the list and the shape stay connected.
  • ·Rescheduling got steadier. Tap a busy day, then press-drag the deadline you mean onto a new one, on a trackpad or a touchscreen alike.
• 2026-05-31

  Keyboard shortcuts

  • ·Drive the app from the keyboard. Press n for a new deadline, / to search, g then d for the dashboard, g then c for the Forecast, and ? for the full list.
• 2026-05-20

  Press-drag reschedule on the Forecast · export and import your deadlines

  • ·Tap a day on the Heatmap calendar, then press-drag a deadline to a new day. Both the calendar and the workload curve redraw as you move it.
  • ·Reschedules stick, so the list and the workload curve pick up the new dates on your next visit.
  • ·Export every deadline to a spreadsheet file, and import the same format back in. Your data is yours to take with you.
  • ·A stream column on import quietly creates any stream that doesn't exist yet.
• 2026-05-18

  The Forecast view

  • ·A second way to see the weeks ahead. A workload curve runs over a Heatmap calendar, so dense stretches and quiet ones read at a glance.
  • ·Each day's shade reflects its load, and the colored dots on the curve are your deadlines threaded across the next 90 days.
  • ·Click a day to see what falls on it. The view stays read-first, with rescheduling handled by press-drag.
• 2026-05-17

  Streams · the four ways to act on a deadline

  • ·Group your work into streams, each with its own name and color, and filter the list down to the ones you want to see.
  • ·Four clear, independent controls on every deadline. Set it as a priority, snooze it out of the way, set an email reminder, or set it aside.
  • ·Each card opens a slide-down drawer for a to-do checklist, a description, and private notes, without leaving the list.
• 2026-05-16

  The daily date register · a quieter dashboard

  • ·The dashboard opens on today, with a clear date and a short, plain note on the day ahead.
  • ·A collapsible sidebar, a calmer welcome, and a tidied layout, so the running list stays the focus.
  • ·Mark complete now plays a brief lift-off animation, and longer lists load more on demand instead of all at once.
• 2026-05-12

  Snooze, set aside, and a per-deadline reminder

  • ·Snooze a deadline to get it out of the way, then bring it back when you choose.
  • ·Set an email reminder on a single deadline, with a lead time that suits it.
  • ·Add an optional checklist of sub-tasks to any deadline, and group work by client or project.
  • ·A read-only demo so you can see the product working before you sign in.
• 2026-05-11

  The look, settled

  • ·A light, restrained design with a precise type scale and a three-color system that gives each color a meaning. Red for urgency, amber for attention, green for done.
  • ·Sentence case throughout, hairline borders, and short animations that mark a moment rather than loop.
• 2026-05-09

  The pattern assistant · a 14-day free trial

  • ·A small panel surfaces up to 3 plain observations a day, like noting which week ahead is heaviest or that the week is clear. The notes are written, not generated, so they read the same way every time.
  • ·Start with a 14-day free trial. No card required, and you can cancel any time.
  • ·Empty states greet you in full sentences, the urgency of each deadline washes across the edge of its card, and finishing one plays a quiet completion beat.
• 2026-05-05

  The first running list

  • ·The dashboard shows your deadlines sorted by what's soonest, split into what's most pressing, what's overdue, and the rest of the active queue.
  • ·Add a deadline with just a name and a date. Everything else is optional.
  • ·Sign in without a password using email, a Google account, or a GitHub account.
