Fantastical 2

Flexible, efficient scheduling and life management

Out of the box, your Mac already ships with Calendar, which might leave you wondering exactly why you’d spend $49.99 on Fantastical 2. The answer is threefold: flexibility, speed, and ease of use.

Naturally, it works with more than just local calendars, plugging into Office 365, iCloud, Google, and Yahoo among others, so you can mix your personal and business appointments while keeping them separately filed. Version 2.5 even integrates with Meetup.com, using your Meetup credentials there to pull in local events you’ve shown an interest in, even if you’ve not signed up to attend. Any you have signed up for will be marked as accepted, just like any regular meeting requests.
