BusyCal Reviews

Best overall

Atizone on

United Kingdom

After trying many many calendars and to do lists, I finally came across BusyCal. It has never let me down and works wonderfully on my iPhone. I would love to give it 5 stars but the only thing missing is the ability to change the colour of events,tasks etc to personalise them. Other than that it’s brilliant. Well worth the purchase and no silly subscriptions.

Probably the best out there.

Simply the best. Took a gamble paying up front, but was well worth it. So versatile. Great widgets too

I really like it. Not many calendar apps have calendar sets and this one does and it is so useful. This app makes me enjoy adding events and planning and I’m looking forward to future updates. Thanks for a great tool.

Great app but lacks an easy way to report bugs

J-1-M-B-0 on

United Kingdom

Generally a fantastic calendar app that has two issues. 1) you have to sign in with iCloud to sync iCloud calendars. The majority of apps don’t ask you to do this. They just interact with the iPhone calendar. It’s a more reliable realtime sync that polling the iCloud account at a sent interval in the way BusyCal does. BusyCal doesn’t do this with reminders so please fix this as it’s not necessary and not as effective. 2) no direct way to report a bug/provide feedback. There is a bug I want to report. Creating multiple day events seems to be clunky. When selecting the dates, it keeps moving the start date. Then when changing the start date back, it moves the end date. Sometimes it works but this morning it only worked once then refused to play ball on the second calendar entry for multiple days I was trying to create. I resorted to using a different app. Please fix this too. Otherwise, great app with the best month view I’ve found. For the month view, it beats fantastical. For overall usability, not quite there but I still have been using this as the price point is far more personal use friendly.

Great job

Have been using for a couple of years on my Mac and phone and find it very good - keep up the good work!

Switched from Samsung

MarkSheldon—- on

United Kingdom

Recently switched from Samsung to apple. This is much better than the stock apple calendar. Would be nice if in the month view events would span two lines making them easier to read. It would also be nice to be able to assign different colours to different events.

incomplete version of the Mac app

Njv2005 on

United Kingdom

A very comprehensive feature set, but it doesn't have the same features as the Mac version. The only reason I bought it was for the coloured tags, but the iOS version doesn't have these. The Mac version seems to be the same as emClient, but without email.

The best

seraqua on

United Kingdom

Tried the others and BusyCal is still the best all round.

Almost excellent

Marsmite on

United Kingdom

There's no way to type in a date, so you have to flick through a calendar to find the date, or rely on the AI to understand it in words or numbers, and it rarely does. It mixes up US and ISO dates, and it can't understand past dates. That makes it slow to use. I want to be able to type in date and time. That's not asking a lot.

Great app, but short changes non-US

John_in_Herts on

United Kingdom

Dropped one star, as it advertised 50% off. = US$4.99 but charged GB£9.99 (honest advertising = £3.95 + tax) Otherwise seems to work well.
