Thanks Gabriel, we can confirm that there is a discrepancy on Sunday, 28 April 2024 / 20 Nisan 5784 between what Hebcal.com publishes and what Rabbi Miles Cohen luach publishes. Hebcal is displaying the Pesach Chol HaMoed Day 3 reading (Exodus 34:1-26; Numbers 28:19-25) and Rabbi Cohen's luach displays the Chol HaMoed day 4 reading (Numbers 9:1-14, 28:19-25).
We are investigating further and we will get back to you.
Hi Chaim, we have added a new option to the download dialog box to disable the reminders the day before. See screenshot below.
Since the checkbox generates a new calendar feed URL, you will need to subscribe to a new calendar feed to get a version without reminder events. First unsubscribe from the existing calendar in Google Calendar, and then subscribe to the new calendar feed.
Hi, we looked into Amud Yomi, and it appears a bit too complex for Hebcal to implement at this time. Unlike Daf Yomi, there are many different options for Amud Yomi, and we don't have the ability to make a customizable feed just yet. We are very sorry we can't help with this feature.
We did find an Amud Yomi + Custom Review Program Generator that someone else created. Can you take a look as see if this will work for you?
Hi, thanks for contacting Hebcal.
If you are building an application using the @hebcal/core JavaScript package, then yes, this change is very easy to do. Use the function zmanim.timeAtAngle(12.9, true)

If you are using the Zmanim REST API, sorry, we don't yet have a way to pass in custom angles.
Hi Chaim, thanks for the additional feedback. We're surprised by the 11:30am local time issue you mentioned. This will require further investigation.
On the Hebrew date being rendered in Hebrew instead of transliteration, no, there currently isn't a way to change the language here. You can uncheck the "Include Hebrew dates" box for now. Perhaps we'll someday add support for multiple languages.
There isn't currently a way to suppress the reminder event the day before.
This is a good suggestion. We should be able to add as a checkbox to the yahrzeit download options to enable/disable these reminders. It may be a few weeks before we find the time to implement that feature. We'll keep this question open and will plan to close it when we have made the change.
Hi, thanks for using the Hebcal Yahrzeit + Anniversary calendar with Google Calendar.
We understand that you have made changes on the Hebcal.com website, but the changes have not yet been reflected on your Google Calendar.
Because of how Google Calendar subscription feeds work, it typically takes 24-48 hours for changes to reflect on the Google side. Can you check back and see if the updates now appear?
Yes! Follow these instructions on your laptop/desktop computer or tablet to create your customized Google Calendar feed, taking care to select Hebrew for the Event language option

Sorry to hear about this issue! Could you try again on a computer or tablet? That error message appears sometimes on a mobile device because the Google Calendar app tries to take over. If you follow the instructions from a web browser on a regular laptop or desktop (or a tablet without the Google Calendar app installed) it should work just fine.
