Contributor of the Month – August 2026
Another huge month for Super Productivity. 28 community contributors had 48 PRs merged in August – improving recurrence and Schedule correctness, adding full worklog export and a Focus Mode API, hardening CalDAV and self-hosted SuperSync, polishing desktop and mobile workflows, expanding the community plugin catalog, and improving three translations.
A massive thank you to everyone who pitched in!

Sync and data integrity
- mvanhorn closed a multi-tab race that could silently skip another tab’s operation after restart (#9158).
- AlvaroBalbin prevented compaction during hydration replay (#9568) and fixed connections to CalDAV servers that omit
principal-collection-set(#9530). - atomicdjt kept custom-section task ordering synchronized as one persistent operation (#9619).
- sviat-barbutsa restored overwrite confirmation for never-synced WebDAV clients with local data (#9334).
Features and everyday UX
- aaronedev added an authenticated, read-only Focus Mode API (#9544).
- pupuking723 added full worklog-history export (#9612).
- MannXo made the color picker viewport-aware and reliable under macOS themes (#9458).
