• How I stay (more) focused with ADHD

  Dato is a calendar app that gives me quick access to my calendar from the menu bar. My favorite feature is that it shows upcoming calls in the menu bar. And there’s a global shortcut to open this link in your default browser. - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• Notion Calendar

  Weird question, but it seems similar to me; do you know how it compares to Dato? https://sindresorhus.com/dato. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Today — Today’s schedule in your menu bar

  I made this companion to the built-in Calendar app for people who want to be able to quickly check their upcoming schedule without having to open the Calendar app. It also lets you quickly join video calls. I'm the creator of the Dato calendar app, which is quite large in scope. This app was a personal challenge to create the simplest calendar app possible. Source: 11 months ago

• Calendar advice for home + work?

  I use an app called Fantastical (https://flexibits.com/fantastical). I believe it is macOS/iOS only, but there might be alternatives with work with other systems. Basically, I add in my work Office365 account and my personal iCloud and it shows everything together. Whenever I'm making an appointment, I just check that rather than my Outlook calendar.

• Sick of Fastmails subpar iOS app

  Looks like most of your issues are with the calendar. For this I highly recommend an app dedicated to this, like Fantastical, BusyCal, Calendar366 or even a native ios calendar app. These apps have clients for ios, macos and even watchos. Lots of config options and nice features and timely notifications. Source: about 1 year ago

• Productivity apps - recommendations needed

  I personally have been trying out Fantastical and it literally is life changing doing everything in a calendar. You can make a recurring event or something and have it notify you whenever you want. The time limit can be achieved by just creating the duration. Although I'm unsure about the "mark as done" functionality. Source: about 1 year ago

• Whats your favourite app that can work as a calendar and also effectively time-block out tasks?

  By 2022, I was hot and heavy on Todoist. It seemed like a great solution and had a ton of integrations, but it lacked in a few areas. There was no calendar view in the app. That’s not so bad, since I do most of the scheduling in Google Calendar. But it is a little tough when try to add to-dos and see where they fit into your schedule (time blocking). Also, Todoist has this whole “thing” about being minimalist, but... Source: over 1 year ago
