Thanks for the feedback šŸ‘ I have slightly less decrease in RAM usage, but it will vary per installation based on number of calendars and how large they are before filtering ---

Itā€™s crashing immediately for with the SIGABRT error upon first sync. This is my first time installing the app and as soon as I restart the app it immediately crashes upon trying to sync for the first time. Submitted a bug report with ID & log. ---

In the advanced settings of the IcalCalendar app, you can change the time period for which events are synced. But I donā€™t know if this will fix the issue. ---

Thanks @runely for this great app! Because Kalender and Reminders works tightly together in iOS 26 is it possible to get the reminders showing up in your app to? Just wonder because my reminders is already in the kalender app in iOS.. /D ---

Reminders showing in calendar in iOS is an iOS integration. As far as i know reminders doesnā€™t expose a public ics url, so no itā€™s not possible to have reminders showing up in IcalCalendar ---

Iā€™ve been having a problem with the ā€œEvent starts in nn Minutes/Hours/Daysā€ When trigger card not working at all. All the other When trigger cards are working fine (Event added, Event changed, Event Starts). And I can sync the calendars fine, without triggering a Synchronisation error. Checking the Event Count on the calendar device card shows the correct number, and the number of events increases on the next sync when I add an event to the calendar. The only thing I canā€™t get working is the primary thing I need to use, so I can remind myself to get ready and leave in time to get to an appointment in a couple of hours. Or remind myself 15 hours prior to an all day event (ie 9am the day before) rather than an announcement go off on my smart speakers at midnight. Please can you assist me with this, I would greatly appreciate your help @runely Diagnostic report: 0665195e-de68-400f-be43-97d1165d07c2 If you need me to run any specific tests and/or enable debug logging, let me know. ![IMG_7443](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/f/0/f03d211bcadf83eb15535aea21d1d5d9230ba99c.jpeg) ---

Iā€™ve just tried the `Event starts in xx xx` flow card myself by setting it to notify me 1 hour before an event happens, and it works as it should. Are you sure the flow with the flow card are enabled? Please enable the log all events as described in the troubleshooting in the first post.

Re-run test with the correct time, diagnostic report: a8962ae0-c279-40ba-b8ff-1ded1160d99e Now this is most odd. It hasnā€™t worked for me for weeks now, on anything other than the Event Starts now trigger. But this specifically run ā€œTEST EVENTā€ just worked for the Event Starts in 2 Hours trigger. And I swear I havenā€™t made a single change to any of my calendar Flows. The only change I made was to the settings of the app, to enable the debug logging (oh and I manually ran my calendar sync events Flow because I was too impatient to wait 10 minutes for it to sync). Very strange it worked this time, but I havenā€™t been able to get it to work for a good few weeks prior. Iā€™ve added some additional SysLog output to some of my Flows, and Iā€™ll monitor it over the coming week for non-test case events. And I guess let you know if I still have a problem or not. Thank you for your time, my apologies good sir. ![IMG_7460.PNG](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/9/99d58a719b7025f737f5dc1da16d134a7174317d.jpeg) ![IMG_7462](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/b/7/b70d1c305df4bd0d4873b751b56357984a2ed383.jpeg) ![IMG_7463](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/5/a50ec6c35ae2d2dc20e3041789e3026c28dc4f6e.png) ---

Hi Rune @runely Awesomesource! Nicely done sir šŸ‘šŸ¼ Not a huge fan of the green calendar text, would it be possible to add in the app settings a widget colour picker so you can customise the colour of the text in the widget? ![IMG_7706](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/a/7/a79a7d775f07ac817a6095064ac4a3176401e2b1.jpeg) ![IMG_7705](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/0/9/09a2d52585048b647430b589972fad70c788d526.jpeg) Can I query what the coloured dot under the event is for please? You already have the slick looking coloured entry bar on the left to identify the calendar. Also, I have made my widget 775 pixels in height (the max size to fit on my screen underneath the Dashboard header) but if the number of events doesnā€™t fit in that window, I canā€™t scroll down to see the rest. It tells me at the top I have 10 appointments, but I canā€™t see them all. Would it be possible to make it scrollable please. Would it be possible to also include a All Day flag for all day events, and the Location of the event? ![IMG_7707](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/9/9/999e7b87d0f8cfb6b94f3e43af62c901b243bdc6.jpeg) This widget is a most excellent addition to the app, and just what it was missing.

> [@runely](#): > > The green color for the text is the brand color for the **IcalCalendar** app. Iā€™ll consider checking out to add a possibility to change this color I understand the desire for a branding colour, but on the Dashboard display it should be user preference as you are trying to create something for display in your home. (In the app settings menu, where there currently isnā€™t any green, you can go mad with the branding, but the widget is for display in the users home so customisation would be better.) > [@runely](#): > > Its the color of the calendar, shown next to the calendar name I understood that already, and had turned off the calendar name, but the coloured dot remained.

In my own Homey apps, I also canā€™t scroll within the widgets. It works partially if you only have a single widget on your dashboard, but it stops working when you add multiple widgets. ---

Hi Sven @smarthomesven , hope youā€™re well dude. Yeah, itā€™s entirely odd behaviour in the Homey Dashboards. I have two calendar appā€™s widgets in separate columns/pages next to each other. One scrolling works flawlessly, but only if you set max pixel height to less than your available screen height (775) in my case. But it has a maximum pixel height allowed of 1000 ( above that Homey throws an error stating max 1000) The other wonā€™t scroll at all within the widget, but does allow up to 1200 pixels in widget height (200 more) then using your mobile deviceā€™s scroll down the screen to see those extra 425 lines of pixels. Itā€™s frustrating that thereā€™s this lack of consistency with some parts of Homeyā€¦ when the majority is so well polished. EDIT: If you could specify a larger value for pixel height, then you would be able to see more just using your mobile devices (phone or tablet) inbuilt screen scroll. But Iā€™m guessing Homey restricts that? ---

> [@Drako74](#): > > Would it also be possible to add a setting to allow the event title to wrap over multiple lines, for longer event titles that currently get truncated with the dread three little dotsā€¦ Donā€™t see why this needs to be a setting.
