🆕 New Features

this version now allows using the time and date menu, just the time menu or (new) just the date menu for those that wanted that choice. now when using just the date menu (time menu turned off) one can switch to the prefs or quit from the pref icon on either bigcal or tinycal.

⚡ Improvements

Now time menu and date menu color will not change for mac OS 11.0 onwards. Fixed this issue for mac OS 11.0 onwards. However color will change to black from white for macOS below than 11.0 because on below 11.0 macOS menubar background is white and we can't see white text on white background.
other small misc changes to make licensing easier.

🆕 New Features

first universal version of iclock for both intel and apple silicon. changes made to iclock code so that it can run natively on intel and m1 macs. the resulting app for that is a universal binary. iclock is now universal!
new onboarding for new users because of the changes in mac os 11/big sur. the main one is that now apple uses the apple clock in the menu bar open and close notifications. the apple clock can be changed into an icon so there are not 2 dates and 2 times in the menubar. instructions are in the onboarding and at the top of the manual. onboarding open automatically for new users but can be open anytime time from in iclock prefereces:gerneral:advanced and tapping the 'open onboarding screen'

⚡ Improvements

many other smaller modifications to the app.

improvement to the 'take 5' ui. while we're on that app remember to download 'Take Five' the jazz piece that was played originally by Dave Brubecks group and written by Paul Desmond. It makes a great tune to take a break by. it's the perfect length. You can do push ups, stare out the window to rest your eyes, Surya Namaskars (look on youtube if your not familiar with this mind/body/breathing/spirit exercise), or Burpees (also available on youtube.com), etc. Here's a little article on the health benefits of doing Suryas which easy can be done in your cubicle or whatever space you have.
