Akiflow sends 'Updated Invitation' Emails to all guests through Google Calendar after Responding 'Yes' to Recurring Events

So I've noticed that if I accept all meetings for a recurring meeting invite in google calendar, through akiflow, it sends an email to ALL guests with an 'Updated Invitation' headline. I'm not sure what it's updating, as the details look the same. But optically this looks very embarrassing when you're not the organizer of a meeting and there are potentially 100+ guests on the invite.
This has happened twice now, with two different gcal accounts.

Tks, this is happening to me as well and I was thinking on how I could report this :)

Hi Ashley. Is this happening to all of the events you recently accepted or on random ones?

Jeson P Sorry for late response - I was travelling. So if I respond 'Yes' to an invite and then 'This and All Future Events', it will do one of two things:
- Update the invitation and then send the updated invitation email to everyone or
- Duplicates the event as if I'm the new organizer and then sends the invitation email to everyone
This seems to have only started happening within the last month or so, and only to new invites that I accept. At this point, I've stopped accepting invites through akiflow, which I would argue is a pretty core feature to a digital planner. Instead I have to navigate to the company gcal and accept everything there.

Ashley: Thank you, Ashley! Can you please send me a screenshot of one of the affected events in Akiflow and the email that is being sent out?

Jeson P Redacted for privacy, but here's the email being sent. Take note of the 'Invitation' headline instead of 'Accepted: [EVENT NAME]'. This only seems to happen to recurring meeting invites, at least on enterprise gmails.

Ashley: can I see the event that is inside the Akiflow tool? If you can share the entire pop up about this. Just like the screenshot below:

Ashley: Can you send this screenshot (atleast the organizer and the email this is blocked to which is the one at the bottom-left) via the tool's intercom chat support located at the bottom-right? Kindly add a message that this is submitted as per Jeson's request on Canny. Thank you!
