Welcome to Sunrise

We’re really excited to launch our first mobile version of Sunrise today, free in the App Store. Sunrise is a fast and beautiful calendar designed to make your life easier.

When we sat down about three months ago to start designing our product, we looked at the current state of calendars and realized very few exciting things had happened in the last 7 years. We’re setting out to change that, and this release is our first step along the way.

Some of the problems with calendars we heard from users that we tried to solve:

1. “Today’s calendar feels quite stale”: even though everyone knows how to use a calendar, we believed that your calendar could be so much smarter about what’s going on in your life. We added full support of Google Calendar along with Facebook birthdays and events, weather predictions, directions and a better integration about the people you’re going to meet.

2. “My calendar takes forever to synchronize properly”: we worked to make the synchronization experience as smooth and speedy as possible whether you’re using an iPhone 4 or the latest one.

3. “Timezone support is a pain”: we made it super-simple to add events and determine your timezone based on where you actually will meet your friends and contacts.

We’re looking forward to hearing your feedback on our app. Feel free to reach us at jeremy@sunrise.am. You can also watch our video on the homepage www.sunrise.am

A huge thanks to our awesome beta testers, who have given us the solid love that every app needs as it’s being created.
