I need a nimble calendar tool that lets me see my schedule easily and book quickly I love this calendar app, but it comes with a cost
What do you like best about Fantastical?
It is super easy to use. It's hard to explain to folks who have basic calendar needs, but my calendar is very busy. It allows you to use plain english to add items to the calendar and the interface is great. It's much better than iCal.
What do you dislike about Fantastical?
For what it does, it really should be cheaper. They dont host the calendar or do anything fancy, the app and your computer do all the work, so they have little infratructure needs.
What problems is Fantastical solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am on the go and I am in meetings all the time.

Best tool for calendar access - particularly with the toolbar app..

Best Calendar App
What do you like best about Fantastical?
This app syncs with all the other apps to keep my calendar updated with all my meeting schedules. This provides a very interactive and nice way to present all the meetings. Being a cross-platform app, this helps me a lot as the calendar and all the tasks are synced on all the devices so whichever device I'm working on I always stay updated with the tasks.
What do you dislike about Fantastical?
The app sometimes takes a lot of time to solve the issues addressed. It's widgets on the iPad are not that interactive or informative and the team can work on improving these.
Recommendations to others considering Fantastical?
Do recommend using this tool. You can make use of a free trial and after using this tool you can understand the features. Pricing is a little high but the features are worth the price.
What problems is Fantastical solving and how is that benefiting you?
It automatically detects a conference call and syncs it with the calendar which is a very useful feature.

A truly fantastic calendar
What do you like best about Fantastical?
How to add entries in natural language and extend the entries easily and flexible. Besides, the UI is great.
What do you dislike about Fantastical?
nothing in special – at the beginning it was awkward that the collapsed view of the calendar-timeline showed only dates with entries, but this is helpful, on the other hand.
Recommendations to others considering Fantastical?
Get the family license! this helps to coordinate your private and business life.
What problems is Fantastical solving and how is that benefiting you?
really fast entry of appointments, in real time, so to say. It provides everything of the standard Apple Calendar, but offers a vast variety of improvements: different views, easy entry of reminders, shortcut entries.

No other calendar app will do!
What do you like best about Fantastical?
Very easy to make entries on the calendar, customise alerts and attach notes etc.
What do you dislike about Fantastical?
I've been using Fantastical for years and am still baffled by multiple entries for birthdays. I feel sure it's my own ineptitude, but the management of other calendars and contact lists is not as clear cut as I would like.
Recommendations to others considering Fantastical?
There is not very much commitment to using a calendar app, so it's well worth trialling several before making a final choice. Over the years I've tried several other calendar apps but always returned to Fantastical because the others didn't measure up for me.
What problems is Fantastical solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been a freelance designer for over three decades, so am very self-reliant. I struggle with keeping track of important dates when I'm absorbed in my work.

Wish I had this app sooner! One of the better mobile Calendar and Reminder Apps!
What do you like best about Fantastical?
I love the ability to quickly create geo-location reminders... Ie, when I arrive home, do XXX. It helps to make sure I don't forget things. Especially great when leaving the office, (when Leave office, remind to XXX). It's incredibly easy to get in touch with your contacts. You have a to-do list that you can check things off throughout your day as you get them done.
What do you dislike about Fantastical?
The only real downside is the cost. There is a little bit of an upfront cost, but once you realize everything that you get with the cost, it is easy to understand!
Recommendations to others considering Fantastical?
Don't let the up front cost of Fanatical stop you from trying out this product... It is WELL worth it, and you will be glad that you did. I know that I am, and productivity has definitely seen improvements!
What problems is Fantastical solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being more productive, and with the ability to check off tasks, it ensures that you are complete by the end of the day.
