Two bugs, reported and no fix
The widget is great except for two critical bugs: when using the "two months at a time" widget, if you click the left arrow to go back one page/month, it actually goes back by 2. So for example, if you're in the Aug-Sep view and click the left arrow, you will now see May-Jun. Reported this to the dev months ago and never got a response.
The other bug is that the arrows on the “two months at a time” widget are displayed over each other and cannot be clicked on macOS 26.

The illustration is misleading
JUST CALENDAR cannot really set Monday as the start of the week.
Exactly What I Needed – Simple, Clean, and Surprisingly Powerful
As someone who prefers to see everything at a glance the moment I unlock my phone, this app absolutely nails it. “Calendar – Simple Calendar” lives up to its name in the best way possible: no extra frills, just clean, functional design that works right from the widget screen.
I’m a minimalist when it comes to my setup—pure black wallpaper, distraction-free home screen, and everything optimized for both work and school. This app blends seamlessly with that. The widget adapts beautifully to my background, and it doesn’t scream for attention—yet it delivers exactly what I need.
What really surprised me was the four-month layout in a single large widget. That’s something I’ve rarely—if ever—seen on iOS. Most calendar widgets only show the current month and maybe the next, so having this broader overview is a game-changer for long-term planning.
I’ll admit, I was hesitant at first. The app had zero reviews, and I don’t usually spend on phone apps. But I took a chance—and I’m so glad I did. It does its job perfectly, and honestly, it exceeded my expectations.
I genuinely hope the developer explores similar widget-friendly features for a notes app. That would complete the minimalist, on-the-go setup I’ve been searching for.
Highly recommend this to anyone who wants a no-fuss, elegant calendar widget that actually shows more than just the current month.

Regretting my purchase
The defunct / unupdated “Quick Calendar” widget by Wandle Software is STILL BETTER in terms of readability — font size, colored elements, etc. Been using that one since 2020. Just Calendar’s font is just SO TINY and no way to adjust!! Only advantage it has is the interactive previous/next month switcher but quite useless since you have to squint to see the dates! 🤦♂️

Simples e perfeito!
A única limitação que ele tinha era que o app seguia a definição de domingo no fim da semana assim como é definido pelo sistema, mas o widget não seguia. Agora isso foi corrigido. Está perfeito! Obrigado.
Solves A Simple Problem For Me
I’ll never understand why I can’t make the Apple calendar widget larger in the Notification Center. With this app, I can add a large calendar widget that lets me see the day and the month easily. Worth the $2.
Request: Add an option to include the year up at the top somewhere. I often scroll back and ahead to see what day a date lines up with (I book speaking events for people) and would like to always be certain what year I am looking at. Thanks!

Great calendar, bad apple
I hate that I have to pay for this app considering it's such a basic function.
Great app though if you're looking for a simple calendar app that you can quickly access.

Critical Bug, Otherwise Pretty Good

Worth the money for simplicity!
As a macOS widget, there is no better calendar app! Simple and straightforward is all I want, and this is the only app that delivers!
Vitaly, could you add additional color options? I would love to see the same pink color in the calendar that you use in the app icon itself. Thanks again for the great app!

simple, super simple but effective
This is literally the only app that does multiple calendar months side by side. It's super simple, but it's perfect for that reason. Only wish is that the app itself had an option for "stay on top".
Developers: Please!!! Always on top option!

Simple and does exactly what I need
My needs are simple: a calendar widget that looks good, shows more than one month at a time, and doesn't use sketchy anti-patterns to get you to pay.
The widget for this app does exactly this and even lets you interact with it to scroll between months.

Отличный календарь, ровно то, что нужно.
Не хватает виджета на 6 месяцев, чтобы видеть полгода.

95% there as a desktop widget in Sonoma
This small and simple app provides exactly what I was looking for-- calendar views of this month and next month as an ever-present desktop widget in Sonoma.
The only catch I've found is the widget visually flashes every few minutes as it refreshes itself, drawing your eye to its "motion". I hope the developer is able to correct that, as other than that small complaint, this is a 5-star app.

Response from developer
Hello! Thank you for your feedback! I use widget in Notification Center and never seen flashes 🙈. Of course I will fix it in nearest update.
Awesome tool and quick response to bugs
Needed a simple widget in my notifications that showed the calendar ahead with the week numbers.
This does the trick and a minor bug in the week numbers was quickly identified and fixed.
Great response.

Exactly what I needed
Perfect! Exactly what I needed! It's nothing more than a basic calendar in the notification center. The native option within macOS was available only as small. This gave me the options I needed. Thank you!
Very nice
Great simple widget, but add please option to set first day of week in future versions
Doesnt work with Ventura 13.2 yet
Downloaded because my other app 4 month view stopped working. This app doesnt work yet either with 4 month view in Mac OS Ventura (22MAR2023)
Works great!
I had another app that stopped working after an upgrade. This app does exactly what I wanted it to do, it's got 2 and 4 month views as widgets in the Notification Center.
And as an added plus, when you click the widget, it opens another window that will show you the whole year!
