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.

With the native calendar app, I find that if I set the initial appointment with Siri, then go into the appointment and edit it, I can get to all the fields I want.

But, starting a new appointment via the keyboard is now pretty much useless.

Fantastical might be what I need; I'd just have to try the free version out. If anybody has tips for sticking with the Apple Calendar, though, that would be great.

    I don’t know if Fantastical is offering their basic version for
    free these days; but I would never recommend subscribing as I
    think they are massively over priced, but if you can use the basic
    for free, it allows you to write a phrase like:

    “dr. smith, 10:30 AM, 07/21/2021, alert 1h”

    No quotes of course.

    The commas between each phrase cause it to put the parts of the
    appointment in their proper fields.

    So the above would set an appointment for Dr. Smith on July 21,
    2021 at 10:30 am with an alert 1 hour before.

    It is just basic but it has the language parsing you were asking
    about.

    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.

        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.

            Are there any good free Calendar apps that will sync with

            unbearably cumbersome, especially for adding events; just
            creating a single event can take several minutes. I'm not
            interested in paying for a monthly subscription for
            something like Fantastical.
