Calendar sets add flexibility to your daily and weekly outlook

Fantastical has an excellent weapon hidden in its arsenal: calendar sets. These let you quickly change tasks and events you see on your calendar, adding flexibility to your daily and weekly outlook.

That means instead of a single calendar that is crowded with work, personal and family tasks, you can separate your events into different sets and view each individually. That helps to keep you organised and prevent you from feeling overwhelmed.

Fantastical offers Interesting Calendars, which add various schedules to your calendar sets. These can include sporting events, moon cycles, TV schedules, and more.

Interesting Calendars

A lot of calendar apps include public holidays and anniversaries, and Fantastical is no different. But Flexibits’ app goes one further, letting you add ‘Interesting Calendars’.

For example, you can add fixtures for the upcoming football season so you never miss an important game, or you could include the weekly schedule for your favourite TV channel. These stay up to date as things change, ensuring you know what is coming.
