Finally a KILLER Calendar app!!!!

[Dwight Kuhl]

Does it show week numbers?

It looks pretty nice, but If it doesn't show week number it is behind on points already.

I wish MS would just add week view and week numbers, then the native one is awesome.

week numbers is an option...

Still no luck on my quest for a calendar that fully handles reoccurring appointments. Office 365 Calendar is unable to create or edit reoccurring appointments on Outlook.com. The default calendar, while far from perfect, still has the upper hand.

not to sure what you mean... I have multiple reoccurring appts all the time, I have some that are every three weeks and every two weeks, every 5 weeks and all are adjustable... If you have the app and are having trouble let me know I can help you out...

I like it! Looks great on the 1520.

No lag the app zips right along. On most calendar apps when I see hidden appointments it comes from Facebook birthdays. On this app I don't have any hidden appointments. All my Facebook birthdates are showing. I don't have an office 360 account so I am syncing with my outlook email account only. I don't see a setting for hidden appointments like on some apps. If one was hidden I don't know how you would unhide it.

you don't need an account per se, when the dialog box pops up to add the email and password I just entered my Gmail credentials and it worked no sweat... Also, I used it as a stand alone calendar and didn't migrate my other calendars to it to keep it simple...

That's cool. I don't want the hidden appointments to show. I'll see whats up with this one. Great to have choice.

Edit, the private (hidden) things do show up, in duplicate. Makes the display messy. The dev will need to address this.

Enabling the app is .99 cents. Hmmmm. This "killer" calender gets curiouser and curiouser. It does have a very clean (Office) look to it. I kinda like that. I bet this would look GREAT on a larger plablet like the 1520. Probably look good on a 1020 for that matter. I need to study this one a bit. The more I look, the more it makes sense to me.

Two objections I have for this calendar. I think the live tile is an orphan. It doesn't seem to match the app much. Two, announcing the app is FREE and its truly not. Free download yes, but it ain't free. But having said that, it impresses me.

Jazz-

sorry about the in app purchase thing... I discovered that aspect late after posting... I went to sync my calendar and it hit me up... But still, the interface is sweet and the features are rich... So I hope you will agree that is a pretty strong contender in the app marketplace... It has very few reviews, but I was impressed by its functionality...

i agree. this app does look promising. in fact, very promising.
even if u dont pay up, still u can use the app comfortably, if u r ready to build ur calender afresh. that is also fine for a new phone user, as he have to do it anyway.

Does it have a dark theme?
I currently use Cal which is a beautiful app in itself.

As the native WP calender has always been one of my favorite parts of my WP, I have not been in the market for something new. For me and my purposes the synching between the Outlook.com and my phone is seamless and the tools are excellent. I wouldn't mind week view, but I do not miss it that much.

But I LOVE the layout of this. I truly do. I may give this a whirl so long as it interfaces with my calander on my Live account. It would be worth the buck to play with it. It is an amazing looking effort from the developers.

Now everyone has me curious.

What are the advantages of these other calender apps over our native one? I utilize the crud out of the calender, so it is important to me. The native one works so well it is a good reason why I originally tried WP.

This is not a MS product. It is produced by Vets&Systems.

No, I meant why MS does not allow edit/delete of o365 appointments, which is their product.

The native is fluient etc, but its very limited. No week view or the tile shows only next appointment even though there would be room for much more, to give you few examples.

Definitely a nice calendar app with a great live tile. If only it had Task support I'd start using it over the stock app.

 

[Old_Cus]

I syncing to my Outlook and WP Built-in calendar. The WP calendar is showing private. If I can't fix/change this the app is useless to me.

 

[hemanlive]

The default calendar app picks up stuff like birthday of friends from Facebook. Is it possible to have those notifications in this app?
I have just the free version as of now and am not able to sync Google etc. Do I need to get the paid version for FB etc.?
I am satisfied with my default app and would pay only if I see significant benefit with this. Also, is it possible to sync my official outlook calendar with this app? If it is possible, then it would make sense for me to pay.
P.S. My company still uses office 2010, so no Outlook 365 there.

I went with this one due to the fact that I could not read anything on the 30 day theme with the original calendar and also had some reoccurring appt that I could not schedule

If the native calendar would just have a readable month view I could stop buying every one of these!

For me one of the big failings of the built-in is that you can't look back more than a couple of weeks. 3rd-party apps usually provide that - by connecting direct to server. Also, better and more views, more bells and whistles, etc. Short comings are that 3rd-parties can't edit the calendar data directly.

The last good mobile calendar I had was on Windows Mobile. It's been downhill since then. This goes for Windows Phone as well as Android.
