Solid Calendar

Background: I’ve tried a lot of calendar apps, my main one was the default apple calendar prior to this one because sometimes the simplest is best. However, I wasn’t a huge fan of the mobile appearance of apple’s calendar app. A while back I bought the solid apps bundle to try, and didn’t really try to integrate them into my life. Finally got around to it, and solid calendar is incredible! It provides a sleek design that isn’t overwhelming or requires a subscription. I also appreciate that the calendars and reminders are simply the ones on my device, so it’s still relatively secure. I know many are not fans about the requirement of an account, but it to me it is not the end of the world and simply a requirement for multi-device sync. Definitely give this app a try!

The app overall looks awesome. Performs well and has lots of options. I’m just a bit unsure on the widgets. IMO, the font sizes are too small on the medium widgets. Lots of empty space and just doesn’t look right. I wouldn’t like to have a medium widgets with the date/day on the left side and then events on the right of any. Placing all the text in the middle without a calendar 📅 date/ day looks wrong. Maybe offer another widget option? Still a 5 star app and I’m hoping the dev will continue to update and improve upon an already solid app.

This is a “solid” app, but I just wish there was a weekly view that didn’t show calendar events horizontally. It’s a bit weird, especially when you have all day events in your calendar that show exactly the same way as a timed event. I wish there was just a standard, traditional calendar weekly view like most calendar apps. This would truly make this app a game changer. However, for professionals who need this basic view, the app becomes a bit unusable.

I was hesitant but super happy that I decided to purchase it. Minimal is by far my favorite view. I’m hoping for a few improvements such as, grey out past events in all views (would make the focus so much better, really needed asap), allow 45 min event durations, time to leave notifications, and an indicator to show current place in the days timeline. Month and week view are very hard to see where I’m at for the day.

Loving this app so far! Missing a couple features IMO that would make this a total game changer. - Daily Briefing Notifications - aka Timepage from Moleskin. - Hyperlinks - when creating a reminder it will not allow you to create a hyperlink when creating a reminder. - There seems to be a bug when viewing a date in the future. After a few seconds it jumps back to today’s date.

I’ve been looking for a Fantastical replacement for years but none of the calendar apps had natural language support or the type of layout I liked. I finally found my new go to calendar app in Solid Calendar!!! I love how it’s so well designed and the fact that it literally has everything I need in a calendar. Thank you!

Excellent calendar app. Great set of view options, with nice Reminder integration. I was delighted to find that purchase (I bought the bundle, not just the calendar) included not only the iPhone and iPad apps but the Mac apps as well. I’ve stopped using my other third-party calendar apps on all platforms. Well done!

I have tried so many calendars. It is ridiculous. Simply put, I have found my calendar. I will never use another calendar ever again unless this one just crashes or gets bought out by someone—which could happen—IT IS THAT GOOD 👍.

Solid, simple and straightforward. Kind of refreshing. Would love to see a unique Apple Watch complication. The Diary app is also exceptional!

So far I love it 👍
