Best calendar app in town

BusyCal is truly a joy to use, both on mobile and desktop. The only thing I wish the developers would add is support for smart filters in the mobile app, just like on desktop.

Used for years, continues to delight

Have use this app for many years, probably very close to its original release. Endless options for keeping track of multiple calendars, one of my favorites might be the flexibility in setting alarms. And, support is superb (to be clear, any problems have been on my end with failing hardware or requiring hand-holding during migration.) If you are simply living off of the Apple calendar, you are missing out!! Six+ stars for BusyCal.

Great app

After updating their app to perform a well needed background refresh, the app became usable again. The features are second to none and I highly recommend it.
For the creator of the app, don't slip again on the background refresh. It took you ages to fix this issue and made then the app almost unusable.
