Adding productivity to your calendaring
If you are an iOS user, you know trying to navigate your calendar can be a hassle. Finding events and meetings for the day is not usually a problem, but the weeks and months ahead, can be problematic. Now there is an app that turns your calendar in to a color-coded agenda.
Logacal offers a clean, minimalistic way to approach your schedule. Each event is color-coded, but instead of color-coding the day, it places a colored bar along the left side of the screen to easily let you see which events belong to which calendar group. Logacal will import all of your current calendars, except Reminders, easily allowing you to sync personal and professional calendars in to one place to maximize both your organization and your time.
Very iOS 7-y
If you like the new “Today” view of iOS 7, you will like Logacal. Both give you reminders about the things you need to do, but Logacal takes it a step further. It gives you a timeline for upcoming days, weeks, and months. Each of these sections will then show you your events (in three days, a week, six months, etc.). When you tap an event, you can edit it and if you have events that are recurring, you can see each instance of recurrence when you tap on any day it occurs. You can also see the full details of any event by tapping on it.
Also, large red headers keep you aware of how soon an event will take place, as well as, what day you are currently viewing in the calendar. It may take a little bit of time to get used to the layout and features (much like iOS 7), but once you do, there are many features available.
While there are several apps in the App Store that provide similar services, Logacal is a great companion for those users falling in love with iOS 7. Logacal is available for $5 in the App Store and requires iOS 7.0 or later and is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. It is also optimized for iPhone 5.
