    Expensive. Classic widget doesn’t work. Unintuitive. Would rather use a notebook at this point. Good riddance.
  • What happened?!?

    I’ve been using the free version for close to a year but lately all my appointments just disappear. It’s been doing this for a couple months now. What’s the point of entering information if it’s just gonna disappear on me?!?
  • Love it

    But now I can't use it unless I subscribe to an even more expensive package. I will take the loss for what I've already paid for and leave. Too bad, it was a great app for awhile.

    This week the watch complication has been randomly disappearing from my watch, requiring me to edit the watch face and add it back
  • Mostly awesome, MAJOR pain point is the language processing “feature”

    I’ve had fantastical for years, and I recently ended up getting a new, blank phone, and decided I wanted to find a new calendar app because the language processing “feature” had caused me so much trouble in the past. (For example, any event that had “Christmas” in the title would end up on Christmas Day, whether or not that’s when I actually meant for the Church Christmas Dinner or Family Christmas Party or Christmas Concert to be.) It drives me bonkers and honestly has messed up some important appointments without me noticing. BUT I did not find anything that displayed my calendar in a better way. Other calendar apps are seriously lacking compared to this one. It really is a fantastic calendar app in almost every way. I’ve read in forums that fantastical is so proud of their language processing, considering it to be their “most important feature,” but I wish they would recognize that many users would prefer to have an option to TURN IT OFF. I 100% don’t want it. (I know I can use quotes to work around it, but that’s not ideal to me.) There’s my two cents!
  • I love Fantastical

    I love Fantastical and recommend it all the time. Today, when I opened the app my calendar was missing appointments. A search for regular appointments returned no results. I had access to one of my calendars, but no others. I signed in again and my calendar is back to normal. I opened another app that had signed me out too. I wonder if the recent iOS update caused this. (17.4.1) iPhone 12 Pro Max
  • Practically perfect but MUCH too expensive

    No complaints after many years using (odd glitch now and then, plus there should be a setting to allow users to lightly “gray out” past days, esp in month view) but this app is so darn expensive. I dropped it for a couple months to try to save money but will pick it up again …… Developers, please give us a break! Esp us retired folks!
  • Good, but annoying.

    If you put time of event in the title OR a mention of recurrence, it automatically sets that up for you. BUT it deletes it from the title! Very frustrating and time consuming. ALSO, if you do not specify time of event in the title, it makes it an all-day event. Best part: it sometimes decides to put your event on a different date. Trying to add (twice) on Feb 20, 2024: 3pm second nap. It adds it to 3pm on March 2nd. Why??? Even more annoying, I had a personal LOUD sound assigned to event alerts and suddenly, a couple of days ago, the app reverted to some LOW, apparently default alert sound (the only free one and all the others are $$$, with no place to choose my personal alert sound from my sounds library). I’ve never hear this default alert sound before and I still have my own alert sound set in iOS calendar alert settings. Tech support denies that this can happen and has no explanation for why I now get 5 default alert sounds for an event. They remain silent after denying it is happening.
