Sync on iPhone and iPad works again, assistants can manage repeating tasks, and the notes editor keeps its size
dayGLANCE 5.8.0 fixes a 5.7.0 regression that stopped every network request the iOS app makes through its native layer, so GLANCEvault, WebDAV, the Obsidian bridge and calendar subscriptions failed on iPhone and iPad. It also makes the Obsidian bridge refuse to send changes under an unverified key, lets an assistant connected over MCP create and edit repeating tasks, and stops the notes editor shrinking when you click into a long note. If you use dayGLANCE on iPhone or iPad, please update.
iPhone and iPad
- Sync works again. In 5.7.0, every request the iOS app sends through its native layer was blocked by WebKit before the app could read the answer. GLANCEvault reported that the server "needs to be updated to support this app version", the Obsidian bridge said its stream "could not be read", and WebDAV sync and calendar subscriptions failed. Those requests now travel a path WebKit does not block, and still never hold up the app.
- Your GLANCEvault token stays out of the console. The failed requests printed their full address, including the GLANCEvault access token, to the Safari Web Inspector console on every retry. That path is gone. If you shared Web Inspector output from 5.7.0, consider issuing a new GLANCEvault token.
Obsidian
- The bridge only uses a key it has checked. Before sending a change to your vault, opening one from it, or pairing, the bridge now proves its key against your GLANCEvault account, as the main sync already does. A device holding the wrong key keeps its Obsidian changes on the device until the key is right, rather than sending changes no copy of the vault can read. A device whose key changes during a session also stops using the old one at once.
Notes
- The editor keeps the note's height. Clicking a long note to edit it collapsed the box to a small window, and in compact views it could not be dragged larger. The editor now grows with the note as you open it and as you type, up to 60% of the screen, the same as the preview. Short notes keep their usual minimum. This applies everywhere the notes panel appears.
Assistant integration (MCP, desktop only)
- Repeating tasks. An assistant can now create a repeating task: daily, weekly or every two weeks on chosen days, monthly on a date or on the nth weekday, or yearly, with an optional end date or number of occurrences. The reply lists the first occurrence and the next five dates, so the assistant can check the pattern against what you asked for.
- Edit one occurrence or the whole series. A new tool, dayglance_update_recurring_task, asks the same question the app does since 5.7.0: this occurrence, or the series. The title, time, duration, all-day and assignee can change at either scope; notes, project and the pattern are series-only. Completions are never touched.
- Every change can be undone, including removing a series the assistant created. Deleting a series remains your own step in the app.
- Reads now describe a repeating task's series and pattern, in the same form the write tools accept. The tools reference is updated.
