Find every session on the calendar, and a quicker, calmer Aldra

Every session now has a place on the calendar: the whole day is shown, sessions in other weeks point the way to them, and the calendar remembers where you were. Aldra moves more quickly and quietly, and closes things the way it opens them.

What’s new

  • The whole day, not just office hours

    The calendar now runs from midnight to midnight and opens at 6am, so an early visit or an evening session sits on the grid with the rest of the day instead of being left off it.

  • Sessions in another week point the way

    When sessions fall outside the days you are looking at, a bar above the calendar says how many, with buttons that jump to the nearest earlier and later ones. Sessions with no start time wait in their own tray, ready to drag onto a day and time.

    The calendar no longer counts a session it does not show you.

  • A month view, and any date in one step

    Month joins Day, 3 days, Work week, Week and Agenda. Pick a date to go straight to it, and Previous and Next move by the view you are in.

  • The calendar stays where you left it

    The date and view you are looking at are kept in the page address, so refreshing, a bookmark or a copied link opens the same place instead of returning to this week.

  • Busy days side by side

    Sessions that overlap now sit side by side. When a day holds more than fits, +N more opens it in the day view, and a crowded day view leads on to the agenda.

  • Today starts at midnight, Melbourne time

    Aldra now works out which day it is in Melbourne time. Early in the morning, a session logged for today is no longer filed as planned, and a planned session for today can be marked delivered.

  • Things leave the way they came

    Dialogs, drawers, menus and notifications now close with a short exit instead of vanishing, and menus grow from the button that opened them. A notification you swipe away keeps going in the direction you swiped it.

  • Quicker, calmer movement

    Movement across Aldra is shorter. A page now arrives in one quick fade rather than section by section, loading placeholders hold still instead of pulsing, and switching between light and dark changes the page at once.

    If your device is set to reduce motion, Aldra still keeps movement to a minimum.

  • Buttons you can feel

    Buttons give slightly when pressed, and the close button on dialogs and drawers is a bigger target, larger again on touch screens.

  • A more consistent finish

    Menus, tiles, photos and icons share one set of shapes and line weights, and onboarding, participant intake, billing and Case setup now match the rest of Aldra.
