Calvetica Reviews

John Gruber - daringfireball.com
"$2.99 calendar app for the iPhone and iPod Touch, with an emphasis on fast, convenient event creation and a very crisp, stylish UI design. I have a few niggles, but Mysterious Trousers — the excellently-named developers of the app — are improving it at a very steady clip."

First cut was strong; new version is AMAZING. On my desktop, I dont open iCal anymore, I go straight into BusyCal and now on my iPhone, Im all about Calvetica. Like all my favorite iPhone apps, it gives you as little chrome as possible but as much functionality when you need it. Sublime."

“I am desperate to get more organized and my phone is my assistant on this...I found a couple of calendar apps that I LOVE. My favorite of the batch is called ‘Calvetica.’ Since 90% of being organized is thinking you’re organized and feeling organized, having a very organized looking calendar is half the battle. I will say, I think it’s hugely popular. When I asked people on Twitter what they recommended, that was overwhelmingly the app that people suggested.”

Pros and cons of Calvetica Classic app for iPhone and iPad

Calvetica Classic app good for

Otherwise very nice program. And fast and with scrolling weeks. One day you will explain your name? I really miss the landscape view which i have all the time for Internet. You have removed the right side drawer... thank you. I wait until next update. Congratulations any way.
Now Ill finally upgrade the real Calvetica to 4.0 and give it an honest try while still having the original version to fall back o=to if needed.
This is it, FINALLY! The calendar app Ive been looking for. The quick entry, turn sideways for week view, the shortcuts foe moving or deleting events... I will never use another calendar program again. I come from years of Palms and Blackberrys and Apples awkward event entry system is the one thing that kept me from the iPhone. Finally I found the simple, speedy, efficient program Ive been missing. This calendar is a joy. The interface is delightful and unexpected, swiping through the years and months in Month view. But the main thing is the quick entry and editing. Brilliant. Thank you guys, for building a calendar I love!
Ive been using the Palms calendar for over 10 years and its STILL better. Not impressive seeing as THAT app is over 10 years old! Having said that, this is the best app that Ive seen for the iPhone in this category. I like the Classics interface much better. Its much cleaner and can show more at a glance. But I still need the newer version for a few of its features. This app is definitely on the right track, but I think it would be a big improvement to go back to the Classics interface with the latest versions feature set. The new version may look "prettier" but isnt as functional as the Classic. Keep up the good work!
Simple and elegant, true to the helvetica ideology. Does what it needs to do and avoids superfluous options. Every app should learn from this.
I missed blackberry calendar. This app gave me more reason that iPhone is great....thanks

Some bad moments

Doesnt Sync with other calendar app or google cal with ios 5. So useless for me. Otherwise pretty nice and efficient.
This calendar is ok, but I still have no clue how to add new calendars to it. Yes, I went to settings, and I just dont see it. I hate the icon - it reminds me of some kind of medical app. It would also be nice to make up a color scheme of our own. This app touts its customizability, but Ive seen better. Perhaps in the future I will use it, but for now .... no.
I have faithfully used this app since my first iphone 3GS. Now that I am using an iPhone 5 I feel abandoned by the developer. Rather than update this app, they have created a new app. If i want to continue to use their product I have to dish out another 5 bucks! Not cool!
Beautiful app and awesome tool for keeping me organized. Well done!
I think this is not only the best calendar app on my iPhone, but also the best version of Calvetica that mysterious trousers has done. Its simple, clear, easy to understand, and the later version just has too many bells and whistles to be easy to use.
waiting months for the 2012 update. disappointed that it is not available.
