A calendar widget that looks up to a year in the future for your events. The other calendar widgets I found only looked ahead a day, maybe three. I wanted to know the next 5 or 10 things coming up, no matter if they were next week or next month. So I built this calendar widget. It's got some options for configuration the time display format, either time until, or time of. And choosing which calendars it displays entries from. All of the colors in the widget come from your system dark/light preference, as well as the colors you chose for your calendars. It updates every 5 to 10 minutes depending on how iOS is feeling. Only works with events stored in Apple's Calendar App.
