Cons
Con Can't sync across devices
It is pointless.
Con Requires Google services
Con Slow update and long error correction cycle
Unfortunately, Digibites company has not enough resources to keep work up-to-date.
Con No way to get just the widgets
DigiCal+ widgets come as part of the calendar app. Installing the app just to get the widgets might feel like adding too much bloat to some.
Con Can quickly become crowded
The widgets try condensing a lot of information at the expense of readability.
Con Lacks advanced scheduling features
While it's possible to add events right from the widget itself without having to open a calendar app, the scheduling options are limited compared to a good calendar app.
Con The scheduled list looks cluttered
Although not a big deal and just needs getting use to, the list that show pulls up when clicking on current date seem bulky.
Con Ad supported by default
Month widget includes ads by default. They can be removed with an in-app-purchase.
