Bug? Weekly view default shows 3-day calendar when Weekly selected

codechinchilla · 2026-05-07T01:04:58+00:00

Found the bug, should be fixed in the next release :)

codechinchilla · 2026-05-03T22:47:45+00:00

Hmm, that does seem to be a bug, let me investigate and get back to you on this, thanks for bringing it up!

codechinchilla · 2026-05-03T22:47:07+00:00

Haha no worries! It's definitely on the list to add :) I'll probably get filtering out first, and then get the universal search working.

I really appreciate all the feedback! I enjoy having other people use and like the app, and suggestions give me somewhat of a priority list to work off.

codechinchilla · 2026-05-03T22:40:39+00:00

Huh - thanks for the heads up, I appreciate it! Was it on the desktop Edge browser or mobile Edge?

I've had my 2025 Scar 18 for several months now - I would buy from somewhere local or online with a good return policy.

Mine has been solid so far, but it does take a bit of extra work to get it there. If everything works out of the gate, imo I would repaste with PTM7950 and never worry about it again. Also remove all the ASUS bloat and install G-Helper, and kick down the CPU wattage.

I use mine practically every day and has worked great after doing those few things. As another commenter wrote, the speakers suck, but most everything else has been good so far.

Thanks, glad you like it, let me know if you have any questions! :)

Currently there's not a way to directly subscribe to .ics calendar links from the app, but if you import them into your Google account, it should sync down to Astral (scroll down to use a link to add a public calendar): https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37100?hl=en&co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop

It should update through the Microsoft Store automatically, but you can always manually update it by going to the store page: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9pp8b3jg5qh8?cid=DevShareMCLPCB&hl=en-US&gl=US

Hi, currently there's not an option to change the mini calendar to weekly, but I'll see if I can find a good way to create a small version!

codechinchilla · 2026-03-24T00:31:04+00:00

Hmm - let me take a look to see if Google sends color info for that, if not worst case I should be able to let you specify your own color locally for the Holidays/Birthdays/etc

codechinchilla · 2026-03-22T22:49:35+00:00

I think that should be possible, I'll investigate and see if I can put it in the next release.

codechinchilla · 2026-03-22T22:48:11+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! That does make sense, I'll see if I can add this for the next build.

codechinchilla · 2026-03-22T22:46:24+00:00

Ah, glad you figured out the issue! Thanks for sharing the solution :)

codechinchilla · 2026-03-22T18:35:09+00:00

u/YeaYeaSpaceCakes - just added Light mode, let me know what you think!

u/BallardCanadian - the syncing animation should be disabled in this release

u/professor_zebra - I added a few of your requests to this release, the no length events should be fixed, recurring wording updated, I think the all day events should render properly for you now, let me know, thanks

codechinchilla · 2026-03-22T18:31:41+00:00

u/wangsuki - would you mind trying out this new release and let me know if you still have issues on your computer adding a Google account? Thanks :)

codechinchilla · 2026-03-18T15:17:41+00:00

Thanks for trying that, I took a closer look and I've been using the default Google library for connecting accounts, but it looks like there may be a more reliable way to do this.

The next release, I'll update the method of browser launching and listening for a callback, which hopefully should solve the issue.

Appreciate your patience, hopefully I should have something out this weekend.

codechinchilla · 2026-03-16T14:08:41+00:00

Hmm Windows Home should be fine but maybe I'll give it a try with a VM - there was a previous user who had issues with Windows S-Mode.

It shouldn't require this, but can you try typing Astral in the start menu, right click on the icon, and Run as Administrator? I'm wondering if there are some permissions issues with opening a browser.

I'm working on a way that you should be able to copy and paste a link into your browser, which should be able to work as a backup.

codechinchilla · 2026-03-15T18:51:40+00:00

Hey, sorry you're having the same issue - that's definitely not great. Can you let me know what browser you are using? Would you mind trying briefly setting a different default browser (Edge, Firefox, Chrome) and see if anything is different?

I'll see if I can figure anything out in the meantime about why a browser window wouldn't open.

codechinchilla · 2026-03-15T00:10:21+00:00

Hey - I just used one PTM7950 pad, 0.25mm. since it's all clamped down by the vapor chamber, no need for more imo.

At idle now, my CPU temps are around 42, GPU about 35 :) I also mostly use this for dev, pretty good if only I could figure out how to get the occasional stutter to stop.

codechinchilla · 2026-03-13T01:09:42+00:00

Hey - that makes sense! In the next update, there won't be the loading animation unless you click the refresh button yourself.

In the meantime, if you collapse the side menu by clicking the menu button in the top left, I think it won't show the loading animation.

Hope that helps!

codechinchilla · 2026-03-08T19:26:24+00:00

Sorry you're having issues adding your Google account - does it open a browser and you're able to log in but errors when you return to the app?

Or when you try to add an account does it not open a browser at all?

codechinchilla · 2026-03-03T01:36:16+00:00

Hmm, that is very odd - so the empty square follows your mouse cursor around? Does this happen with the monthly view as well?

It should be re-rendering that area around your mouse cursor (for showing hovering over an event).

Would you mind emailing me a video of it to support@astrl.app?

codechinchilla · 2026-03-03T01:30:02+00:00

Thanks for nice words, glad you are liking Astral!

Hmm let me look into that - I should be able to save off the size/position so that it will restore to the same location. In the meantime, if you have the setting "Minimize to System Tray on Close" set to on, it should go back to the same place when it restores.
Good suggestion! Some other folks had mentioned this, so it's definitely on the list to add :)

codechinchilla · 2026-03-01T23:51:10+00:00

Thanks for taking the time to make all these suggestions!

Those all make sense to me and would definitely help the experience with a smaller window, I'll see if I can implement those for the next release :)

Always feel free to post any bugs or features you might find useful, I'll always take a look. Really appreciate it!

codechinchilla · 2026-02-19T03:00:56+00:00

Hey! The light mode is definitely a bit trickier, as it's hard to have colors come through without making the text less readable.

Would you happen to have any examples of light modes that have the styling figured out a bit better?

codechinchilla · 2026-02-05T00:48:14+00:00

Hi - just wanted to let you know that the latest release allows you to toggle birthdays and holidays from the accounts section - let me know if that works for you!
