Re: Free Calendar App?
For what it's worth, I've been using Fantastical for over 5 years. I didn't sign up for a subscription, mostly because it didn't offer anything I couldn't live without, but also like Richard, I don't think I should have to pay for the privilege of using a calendar. I have looked at a few other calendars at times, but find myself going back to Fantastical. When scheduling a new event, I usually hit the new event button, and then flick to the show more button to show all of the fields possible. I would rather enter the information myself than use Siri. I leave the view set to month and am able to access everything just fine. I have no trouble when navigating the month view. Sometimes it does get annoying to have to keep going back to the month view to change days, rather than seeing a list of days. On the other hand, having the month at the top and the list of appointments or tasks at the bottom works best for me.

Once you set the basic appointment with Siri, then select edit on that appointment, things get better. I think you may find things get a bit better yet this fall.

The calendar seems to work well as long as you're willing to use Siri to set up appointments. Finding the location field when editing an event can be tricky.

RE: Free Calendar App?
That could be that you are in the Day Ticker, which is monumentally frustrating. You want the month or just calendar view if you want to try and make sense of it. But like I said when I mentioned it, I switched back to the Native Calendar app because I wasn't happy with the change in Fantastical and refuse to pay their stupidly high fees for the honor of subscribing...

Re: Free Calendar App?
Hello, The app is called "vo calendar". It is a simple calendar app designed to work with Voiceover gestures. It displays the current week's events in a simple list format. At the bottomof the screen are four buttons: "settings", "Other month", "previous week", and "next week". Double tap on the day of the week to get a simple list of events for that day. At the end of the list of events is a "enter new event" button, a "back" button, and a "record memo" button. Adding a new event will walk you through entering the partofthe day, the hour, the minutes, and a text description for the event. Double tapping an event willallow you to alter the test description, the part of the day, the time,move the event to another day,or delete the event. The app does not support repeating events, alarms,alerts,or reminders. It is a simple calendar app but it is very easy to use and integrates with your IOS calendar. Itcan be used along with the IOS calendar app or other calendar apps like FantastiCal. I hope this helps.

RE: Free Calendar App?
I had Microsoft 365 at one time with another ID, but I let that lapse, and I still need to sign up with my current ID, so I’m not exactly sure why my status is with Microsoft 365 and the account I’m using now. I do have a free Microsoft account that I’m using now. That’s why I’m saying people should check their own milage because I can’t say for sure what you get with the free Microsoft account. There are some features that integrate with Microsoft 365 applications, like the task list in Outlook, but if you have Microsoft 365 then you’ll get those features and if you don’t then you won’t be interested in them. Bottom line is that I’m pretty sure Microsoft To Do is a perfectly usable stand alone to do list app, and I still encourage people to check it out for themselves if they’re looking for a to do list app. BTW, here’s what it says in the App Store including the end where it let’s you know what you get with MS 365 integration. The direct URL is at https://apps.apple.com/us/app/microsoft-to-do/id1212616790 Description Create to do lists, reminders, and notes for any purpose.

Re: Free Calendar App?
VO calendar is the name of it It’s not free but it is a completely accessible app. It is called a version of calendar. I believe it’s only $10. But it works seamlessly with iOS and voiceover.

Re: Free Calendar App?
I have a mystery I hope someone can help me solve. I don't have a native calendar app, and I don't find a calendar app that I may have deleted in the not on this iPhone portion of purchase in the app store. How do I then get the native calendar app? I have an SE2020 with latest IOS upgrade. It would be great to be able to make appointments with alerts.

Mostly what I'm looking for is something that has natural language parsing so I don't for example have to manually scroll through every day of a month. > On Jul 3, 2021, at 8:40 AM, Michael Feir wrote: > > > If you haven't already, you might want to give Google Calendar a spin.

Re: Free Calendar App?
If you haven't already, you might want to give Google Calendar a spin. They put effort into making their software accessible. Microsoft has a free app called Microsoft To Do but that's more for task management. There are tons of calendar apps and there may be accessible ones undiscovered by blind people. However, the only ones I know about are paid apps. Google Calendar is likely the best bet for something accessible and totally free. On Sat, Jul 3, 2021 at 7:59 AM K.
