What's new

OlenHub keeps getting better. Here's what's changed lately — you're on v2.59.13.

Your calendar, one tap away

July 2026
  • Every event card now has Add to Calendar — one tap puts it in your Google or Apple calendar at the real date and time, including multi-day events.
  • Share sits right on the card too, so you can send a flyer to family without opening the event first.
  • The community calendar now checks for new posts twice a day, so afternoon announcements show up the same evening.
  • When an event's time or place gets corrected, a small “Updated” note tells you what changed.
  • A new Culture category makes Iñupiat culture events easy to spot on the calendar.
  • Ask Olen now points to trusted local help first — crisis lines, offices, and programs — before anything else.

Less in your way

June 2026
  • Open OlenHub and you go straight to what’s happening — no setup screens before you can look around.
  • Today’s Brief now leads with what’s actually happening today, instead of long programs that started weeks ago.
  • A little red dot now appears on Calendar or News when there’s genuinely new content since you last looked — so you never miss an update (and it only shows when something real changed).
  • On iPhone we’ll quietly let you know once, after you’ve had a look, that OlenHub is on the App Store — instant weather and safety alerts, events, and news on your phone.
  • Already using the app? We’ll gently offer your morning brief once — today’s events and safety alerts each morning — instead of nagging you to install what you already have.

Get the app, and clearer privacy

June 2026
  • You can now grab OlenHub straight from the App Store — look for the badge on the About and More pages.
  • Our privacy page is clearer about the little we collect: no precise location, no ad trackers, and only anonymous, community-level stats.
  • Fewer false “you’re offline” messages — the app now double-checks the connection before telling you it’s down.

More money you can actually apply for

June 2026
  • Find Money now lists more North Slope scholarships — your village corporation, the city, and tribal programs — each with a real, confirmed deadline.
  • Live countdowns show what's closing soon, so you don't miss a window.
  • Ask Olen can point you to the right scholarship for your village and set a reminder for the deadline.

Keep OlenHub one tap away

June 2026
  • It's easier to add OlenHub to your home screen, so it opens like an app — no app store, no account.
  • A smoother first-time welcome that gets you to what you need faster.

A smarter morning, only-current money

June 2026
  • Today's Brief now leads with the day's biggest event and what's coming up next.
  • Find Money hides opportunities that have already closed, so you only see what's still open.

See where the info comes from

June 2026
  • News and the Calendar now show when they were last updated, and that they're gathered from across the community.
  • The news feed puts official villages and organizations first.
  • An easy way to send in something that's missing or out of date.

A fresh OlenHub

June 2026
  • Ask Olen — your guide to the Slope, answered with real local sources.
  • The official calendar, safety alerts, and a directory for all eight villages.
  • Free, no login, no ads — and we never sell your data.

Something missing or out of date? You can send it in from any page — OlenHub belongs to the community.
