First, I've been pretty bad in terms of updating this changelog ๐Ÿ˜… I know I said this a few months ago but I promise I'll try to be better moving forward (have a lot of awesome things planned!)
There have actually been a ton of awesome things released but I want to announce the release of 3 major things:
๐Ÿ“† The Oulook Calendar integration
You can now connect your Outlook calendar to be able to view Outlook events in Ellie or use the 2-way sync to add Ellie tasks to Outlook!

This feature is available on both desktop and iOS โœŒ๏ธ Check out this help center article to learn more about how it works!
๐Ÿน iOS Widget
Ellie supports 3 different types of widgets on iOS so you can quickly see things like tasks/calendar events at a glance. They work on both iPhone and iPad!
