Remember people who passed away
(Thx, Martin!)
Some people stay part of your life even after they're gone. A contact's Details tab now has a quiet »Keep in memory« button. Their portrait appears muted everywhere in the app, their page shows their life dates, and their birthday stays on the calendar as a calm remembrance instead of a countdown.
keep in memory
  • Everything that nudged you to reach out stops on its own: no birthday notifications, no catch-up reminders, nothing about the age they would have turned. Widgets and Cleanup leave them out as well.
  • The mark syncs over iCloud to your other devices. Removing it from the same sheet brings everything back.
  • You stay in control: »Show remembered people« is in the list options, and the switch for the whole feature is under More → Preferences. Marks are kept either way.
  • Nothing is written to the iOS address book.
Open addresses in your preferred map app
On a contact's Details tab, tap the address to open it in Apple Maps or Google Maps - whichever you picked under More → Preferences. It works right away, even while the map preview is still loading. The »Open in …« line below the map is tappable now, too.
My Card - QR Code
The »My Card« screen now has a QR Code Contents section with a switch for each detail: Company, Job Title, Phone, Email, Website, and Address. Your name is always part of the card - that's not switchable, since a nameless card would just confuse whoever scans it.

The »My Card« screen now also has an
Edit Contact
button, right at the top of the section that already had »Change Contact« and »Remove My Card«. It opens the same native iOS contact editor the app uses on every contact detail, and it works in English, German and Spanish since that label was already in the app's translations.

  • Lifetime owners can now pick an Obsidian app icon under More → Appearance.
  • Age on the birthday: the Birthday row on a contact's Details tab now shows the age they're turning, after the countdown.
  • it's not possible to add empty notes anymore (Thx, Albert!)
