Calendar Cover should show future appointments
asked 2013-12-25 10:30:57 +0200
When the Calendar is minimized to a Cover it shows the appointments of the current day. I think it would be nice, to also see future appointments.
one "clever" way to do this might be to make the next calendar appointment be an alert/notification so it shows in the lock screen (in a natural way), and can then be clicked through to via the events screen.
This needs to be configurable (only selected calendars and only if requested by user), for privacy and security.

+1. Also remove the happenings that are already over.

Being able to exclude certain calendars from the active cover would therefore also be a good idea. Or for birthdays just: «Birthdays today: 2»
