- New "Details" button: open the advances options form.
- New "Recurrence" option: once, every week, every month, every year.
- New "Alarm" option: you can set an alarm and its timer.
- All texts are in a resources file, you can translate it in your language. If you translate texts file please send me yours version that I'll share it.
- All graphics elements are external files, you can modify them as your preferences.

Note

Respect v1.0 I've inverted up/down buttons functionality, so now up arrows "^" increase values and down arrows decrease values.
