Hello,

I am not seeing any accessibility related issues with the new Fantastical 
update. The features you had in Fantastical 2 are still there and you can still 
access them. Turn off the weather feature if you don’t want it in your calendar 
feed/events. I actually find that useful. 

Maybe try exploring the apps new settings and set the hide days without events 
to off )I probably butchered this setting name), this will restore each day 
being shown.

The app works great and it will still be my calendar of choice.

Ed Worrell
