Beyond incredible and breathtaking!
From the menu bar app that changed the way Mac users create calendar events, to a full blown app, I am amazed at what Flexibits have created. For those who live and breathe their Calendar and Reminders, I cannot think of anything else that comes even close to what Fantastical 2 brings to the table. There are an overwhelming array of visual dleights that make this app a joy to use. The best natural language parsing engine, an incredible endless scroliing view, a brand new feature called calendar sets that allows you to see a customized grouping of different calendars and reminders lists, a location awareness in ‘calendar sets’ that can change what calendars and reminders are a priority based on where you are using your Mac, voice to text for fast event creation, a detatchable menubar window for fast entry, widget for notification centre, a new sharing and services extension, dark and light themes. I can go on and on. If you have never used Fantastical, or are on the fence about making the transition from the menu bar app to a full OS X app, head over to the Flexibits website and start your free trial. The price may come as a surprise for some, but I am happy to pay for this app as it is something I use on my Mac (and iPhone) every single day. Fantastical changed my productivity from day one, and they supported their first version for free for 4 years. I am happy to give these wonderful developers their asking price because it ensures we have such wonderful apps on the best platform. They raised the bar on the Mac and iOS to an even higher level, again. The expectational debt for the competition is going to be very high.
