EventMonkey helps you capture event information without the tedious data entry. Point your camera at any poster, flyer, or screenshot, and the app extracts the date, time, location, and description using smart text recognition. Then it creates a calendar event for you. How it works: Take a photo of an event poster (or upload one from your photo library). EventMonkey reads the text, figures out what's relevant, and shows you a preview. Review the details, make any tweaks, and tap to save it to your calendar. That's it. Perfect for: - Concert and show tickets - Class schedules and syllabi - Work conferences and seminars - Community events and meetups - Sports games and tournaments - Any printed or digital event information The app works with your existing calendars (iCloud, Google Calendar, Outlook, etc.). Events get saved wherever you normally keep them. No separate app to check. We built this because manually typing event details is annoying. You're looking at all the information right there on a poster, and you still have to type it all into your phone. EventMonkey fixes that.
