Welcome to the first of what will hopefully become many reviews from your friends at MUG. Today's app is Calvetica Calendar, by Mysterious Trousers, LLC.
There are dozens and dozens of productivity and to-do apps in the app store and each has its own way of doing things. Some, like Things, have a companion desktop app. Others use a third-party solution like Toodledo to sync items. Calvetica takes a different approach. Calvetica is a full function calendar app that ties directly into your iPhone's calendar, thus eliminating the need for any sort of syncing solution besides iTunes. If you're like me, and all of your planning happens on the go, Calvetica can be an indispensable tool for your sanity. Calvetica is very clean and beautiful, and behaves much more like stock Calendar app should behave. Adding events and changing your plans on the go is no longer an experience akin to having teeth pulled. It can be done in just two taps. However, the app can take a little getting used to, and sometimes it's not apparent how to do something. Luckily a recent update added a help menu for when you're stuck.
The bottom line is this: if you are already a very organized person who plans everything in iCal and then simply sync to your phone, Calvetica's usefulness may be limited. However if you, like me, seem to plan in small moments of time (while walking between classes, for instance), Calvetica is extremely useful at helping you get in, get done, and get back to life. I've been using Calvetica for about a month and it's replaced almost exclusively every other productivity app on my phone. Calvetica Calendar is available on the app store for $2.99. If you'd like to test it out, it is also available in a "narrow" free version with fewer features.
