Calendari is your calendar with a personal assistant that actually calls you. Manage your schedule by text or voice, get a call when it's time to leave — not just a push notification — and let your assistant make the calls you don't want to: booking a table, telling someone you're running late, or ringing you the moment an important email lands. Share plans with groups, see everything on a map, and keep it all in sync. SMART CALENDAR * Month view with events for the selected day; switch between your personal calendar and any group calendar. * Tap a date to open a day view with events grouped by time (All Day, Morning, Afternoon, Evening). * Create and edit events with title, date, start/end time, location, and notes. * Mark events as completed; events are stored locally on your device. AI ASSISTANT * Chat with an AI planning assistant by text or voice. * Create events by natural language ("Add dentist tomorrow at 2pm," "Bible study at 7pm for the Bible Study group"). * Ask about your schedule: "What's on my calendar today?", "Am I free tomorrow at 4pm?" * Planning and conflict checks: "Would next week be good for vacation?" * Recurring schedules, bulk edits, and rescheduling by voice or text. * Driving time between places, and suggested route order for multiple stops. * English and Spanish, both by text and by phone. PERSONAL PHONE ASSISTANT * Get your own dedicated phone number for your assistant — call it anytime, or have it call you. * Leave-by call reminders: instead of a generic alert, your assistant calls to tell you exactly when to walk out, based on real travel time. * Calls businesses on your behalf — book a table, a haircut, or an appointment, then calls you back with what happened. * Calls people for you — let someone know you're running late, or send one message to a whole group at once. * Try it free: dial the demo line or have Calendari call you, no account required. * Natural, human-sounding conversation. EMAIL * Connect your Gmail account (read-only) so your assistant can read messages aloud, search your inbox, and pull up a specific email in full. * Watch for an email from someone specific — your assistant calls you the moment it arrives. GROUPS AND COLLABORATION * Each group has its own calendar; switch between Personal and any group from the bottom bar. * Create or join a group with an invite code, or share a join link. * Set who can add events to a group: everyone, admins only, or the owner only. * Shared events sync automatically so every member sees them on the group calendar and map. MAP AND LOCATION * See your event locations on a map, with pins colored by group. * Tap a pin for directions. NOTIFICATIONS * Location-based "time to leave" alerts, timed using current traffic — as a push notification, or as a call from your assistant. * Reminder timing the AI sets automatically based on the type of event. ACCOUNT AND SYNC * Sign in with your Apple ID; profile picture, display name, and your groups sync via iCloud. * Delete your account anytime — this permanently removes your data, including from our servers. PERSONALIZATION * Five color themes with matching gradients and accents. * English or Spanish throughout, including onboarding and the AI. Personal Assistant is available as an in-app subscription.

Verdict
