Brain-dump your whole day in plain words. Calendar+ 2 reads it and builds a color-blocked, time-scheduled day on your real calendar — in seconds. Not a timeline sidebar. Not a planner that fakes a calendar. A full, syncing calendar that also plans your day with AI — the only app that does all three. PLAN YOUR DAY WITH AI Type or speak everything on your plate: "gym 7am, deep work 9–12, lunch with Maya, call dentist, finish Q3 report." Tap Plan. Calendar+ 2 parses natural language, checks your live calendar for conflicts, and returns a color-blocked schedule you confirm with one tap. No templates. No slot-hunting. MANUAL TIME-BLOCKING CANVAS Brain-dump tasks into the inbox as quick chips. Drag them onto your day or week canvas — blocks snap to real time slots alongside your live events. Rearrange in seconds. AI ASSISTANT Talk to your calendar in plain English. "Move my Tuesday standup to Thursday at 2pm." "Add dentist Monday at 9." The assistant reads your full calendar, resolves conflicts, and edits events directly — across Google Calendar, iCloud, and device calendars. A FULL CALENDAR, EVERY VIEW Day, week, month, multi-week grids, and custom multi-day views. Swipe to navigate, tap to create. Multi-account color coding. Two-way sync with Google Calendar, Apple iCloud, and device calendars. BEST-IN-CLASS WIDGET SUITE Four widget families: month grid, multi-week calendar, scrolling week timeline, agenda list. Full skin, font-size, and dark-mode customization per widget. The most powerful calendar widget suite on iOS. BUILT FOR BUSY BRAINS ADHD, time-blindness, packed student schedules, or professional overload — Calendar+ 2 gives structure without requiring you to be organized first. Brain-dump, let AI sort it out. 26 LANGUAGES Fully localized in 26 languages. PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION Includes AI planning, all views, and the full widget suite. Current pricing shown at purchase.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Calendar Widget at none against Calendar+ 2's 3. Calendar+ 2's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 months). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
