Great calendar tool (with few setbacks)

I use Fantastical for 4 years now. I am an eclectic user having 5 workspace accounts and using over 14 shared calendars.

Fantastical have few major features that makes it a killer-app for me:
- user defined Calendar Sets (profiles)
- integration with communications apps (Google Meet, Zoom...)
- faultless synchronisation between platforms and devices
- Second time zone shown in the Day and Week views
- text based input for events

Weak points:
- Openings are missing a choice to select calendars throughout Calendar Sets (pick one in each Set i.e.)
- seldomly the app just ceases to work (Mac) and has to be force-quit
- management of Tasks - a tasks list for each Calendar Set would be awesome

Overall this app gets to me because it demonstrates how a simple thing as a calendar can be approached differently with enrmous accent for productivity and ease-of-use.

Please carry on with your great work!

Not perfect, but one of the best :-)

Fantastical is not perfect, but still one of the best calendaring apps I have ever used. In the past, there were sync issues, but has been quite reliable lately. Even the Apple Watch sync works reliably and there is manual sync option.

Time To Leave UX needs some improvements (really confusing on iOS / iPadOS), there are some bugs in Shortcuts automation (like retrieving meeting location does not work), but overall - great app. Love the direct connection to Office 365, works like a charm :-).

Formerly great app, now frequent sync issues

I used to rely on Fantastical, especially its ability to work seamlessly across different devices, combining same events across multiple calendars was one of the main features for me. Unfortunately, with the new synchronization system, Fantastical became totally unreliable. Changes on my iPhone sometimes do not make it to the Google calendar, macOS app also sometimes does not sync - with no error message at all. With that, I will definitely cancel my subscription and will not renue. I wish the old version was still available - that at least worked (for several years, without a glitch).

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the feedback. Please open Fantastical's Preferences > Calendars > right-click the calendar/reminder list you want to stop getting invite alerts from > get Info > Ignore Alerts.
