Today Calendar

Top Pro

Integrates with Google Maps for directions

Top Con

App crashes too often

Though the app is pretty likable, it keeps crashing. It was fine for a time, but about 2-3 months ago, it would just crash without warning. Nowadays, it happens so often that seeking a replacement may be a good probability. See More

Top Pro

Actionable notifications

Top Pro

Clean, good-looking design with improved common views and two great new views that combine month and agenda views

Today Calendar design is based Google's stock Calendar application with modifications to user interface and functionality. In addition to day, week and agenda views that have improved aesthetics and usability features compared to the stock app, there are also two new views that combine agenda and month views in interesting ways. One approach shows a complete, color-coded month with agenda view beneath it and the second shows a complete month that pops up agenda view when clicked on a date. See More

Top Con

Since Android updated to Oreo, custom notifications are broken

The ability to change the notification tone from the default Android tone is unbearable. And that's mostly because of the default Android notification tone. But the problem is that there are too many different, frequent tones sounding, and it would be nice if the Today Calendar notifications would be audibly distinctive. And the developers seems to have abandoned the app as of July 2018. See More

Top Pro

Straightforward event creation

To quickly add an event, each view has an option to either click a plus button somewhere on the screen or long-press a date to bring up a form.

Both forms have an edit button for a adding more detailed information. This way in addition to selecting an event name and date, there's an ability to add location, start/end times, guests, description, color-code as well as choosing if it's an all day event, how often it repeats, how many and what kind of reminders are needed and setting users availability and privacy settings.

Clean design with 5 different views including an excellent schedule view

Google Calendar has a monochrome base design that's accented with colored-coded events and image banners that separate months in schedule view. The app has 5 different views - schedule, day, 3-day, week and month. Day, 3-day and week views split up the days horizontally and hours vertically.

The app has day, week, week-agenda, month, month-agenda and list views. Day, 3-day and week views split up the days horizontally and hours vertically. Week agenda splits the screen in 6 equal parts - 5 parts for work days, sixth for weekend. Double-tapping a day will open a list of events for that day. From here swiping left and right allows moving between days. Month view splits the screen in half with one half displaying a typical month view with color-coded dots next to dates to show which days have events and the other a list of events for the selected day. Month agenda view lays out all days in a grid and displays all event for the day. The list view is actually the closest to a typical agenda view despite the name. The difference here is that there are two modes of showing that information - default and detailed. The default mode displays date, time, event name and location (if available) and the detailed mode displays extra information such as what calendar is the event part of, who's attending, notes, etc. See More

Adjustable spam filter

On writing this Fastmail has Basic, Normal, Aggressive or Customisable spam filtering which can be selected in the Advanced settings. Each user has an individually trainable bayes database to improve spam filtering. You can train your personal bayes database by selecting some messages and using the Report spam and Report Non-Spam options from the Action menu on the Mailbox screen. For IMAP users who don't use the web interface much, you can specify folders as spam/non-spam training folders on the Folders screen. Then just move messages into those folders as appropriate to train your bayes database. For your personal bayes databases to be active, you have to train it with at least 200 spam messages and 200 non-spam messages. If you haven't trained enough messages, then we use a global continuously updated bayes database against your incoming messages, which helps detect spam/non-spam, but isn't as good as a personally trained one.
