Apple Watch app

• Added an Apple Watch companion with Quick Events, calendar and date range pickers.
• Add, edit, and delete events on your Watch, including template-value selection and date and time wheels. Changes are saved and confirmed by your paired iPhone.

Automatic calendar refreshing

• Event lists on Mac and iPhone now refresh automatically when events are added, edited, or deleted in Calendar or synced from another device.
• The Watch list also refreshes when the iPhone detects calendar changes while the Watch app is open and connected.

Presets

• Added named presets for each utility to save and recall all filters, calendars, and utility options from the Inspector.
• Adjusted presets are marked Modified; use Update Preset to save changes or Revert Changes to restore the saved settings. Presets can also be renamed or deleted.
• Relative date ranges, such as Last Month, stay up to date, while Custom ranges preserve their exact dates.

Calculate Hours grouping

• Added a Group By Inspector option to organize Calculate Hours results by date, week, month, or title.
• Title groups are sorted alphabetically and show event dates in their rows.
• Group headings can select or deselect all events in the group, and group footers summarize event counts, selected hours, and costs.

Calculate Hours rounding

• Added a Rounding popup below Hourly Rate in the Inspector, with None, Whole, Nearest 5, Nearest 10, Nearest 50, and Nearest 100 options.
