Beautiful... but not perfect
Ive been on a calendar/planner app downloading binge lately, looking for the perfect app. This is hands down the most attractive calendar apps Ive come across for the iPhone. (So many beauties for the iPad...not so much for the iPhone). There is a tab for the daily overview, weekly overview, monthly overview , and then for tasks, notes, and monthly reminders. Everything is laid out well, and quite attractive. I love love love the weekly overview page You can customize your own background, to suit your needs.
What I found lacking: If you use multiple calendars, it is nearly impossible to see what events go with which calendar. Instead of using funny symbols to mark priority, I wish the app had the option to show a symbol/bullet to define calendar.
There is no way to assign tasks to separate calendars either. This combined with the last point is what made the app useless for me. I need to be able to see at a glance the difference between work appointments/task, and my own personal appointments/tasks.
There is also no way to personalize the daily "appointment" page. Any calendar I use only needs to go from 9am-9pm - appointments would be much larger and easier to read if I could avoid having it laid out for 24 hours.
While there is a way to create recurring events, it doesnt seem to show up in the "quick add" which makes it a little awkward to use.
All and all, its a great app - if you only have one calendar to track. Im tempted to wait to see if they update to a format that would be more useful to my life, just for the sheer beauty of the app.
