What moved since yesterday

A lecture gets moved to another day. A deadline is pushed back a week. Normally you find out by noticing that your week looks different from how you remember it — or by not noticing.

What moved since yesterday is a short list on Today that says, in words, what changed.

Screenshots pending

This page is written from the code, not from a running app — no environment was available to shoot it. The images below show a described placeholder instead.

  1. Open Today. What moved since yesterday sits near the top of the page, under your three tasks.

    Screenshot coming soon
    The What moved since yesterday card on Today: a moved lecture with its was/now times beneath it, a renamed item and an added deadline, each row carrying the tag naming the source the change came from

  2. Each line names the thing that changed and what happened to it — for example "Analysis II moved". Where Latte still has the old value, the line beneath reads Was … — now ….

  3. A small via … tag on each line names the source the change came from, so you can tell "the university moved this" from "I moved this".

  4. More than four changes and the rest are folded behind Show N more — nothing is dropped silently.

  5. With nothing to report the card reads Nothing moved. — "Your timetable is the same as it was yesterday." That is the normal state, and it is a good one.

On the Latte desktop app

The desktop app shows the same card in the same place.

What each kind of line means​

  • "… moved" — the start or end time changed. This is the one that matters most, and it is the one that shows you both times: what it was, and what it now is.
  • "… is now …" — the title changed but the time did not. Useful when a room or a topic is written into the title, which is what most timetables do.
  • "… was added by …" — the item appeared in one of your sources. Something was put on your schedule that was not there before.
  • "… was cancelled" — the item disappeared from its source. A cancelled session shows up here rather than just vanishing from the grid.

Deadlines on your tasks get their own wording — "New deadline: …", "The deadline for … moved" — so a coursework due date that shifts is reported the same way a lecture is.

Which sources it watches​

The card reports changes on the calendars Latte can read for you:

What it does not see​

It only reports changes Latte can see. That means:

  • A change announced only in an email, on a notice board, in a lecture, or in a chat message is not here. Latte reads your calendar sources; it does not read your mail.
  • A source you have not connected reports nothing. If your timetable lives somewhere Latte is not subscribed to, nothing about it will ever appear on this card.
  • Changes are kept for about a month and then dropped. This is a "what changed lately" list, not a permanent history of your timetable.
  • An empty card means "no changes were reported to us", which is not quite the same as "nothing changed anywhere". When something important is at stake, check with the source.
tip

If a lecture keeps moving and you keep missing it, the fastest fix is to connect the source itself rather than copying dates by hand — then changes arrive here on their own. See Subscribe to a calendar link.
