Thought I'd check in again. I'm using beta of Pocket Informant, also sprung for PimlicalA after reading raves about it (no free trial available, wasn't even in Market, had to buy from website). I'm not in love with either of them; PI is nowhere as flexible as it was for PocketPC (it is in beta), with inability to create certain kinds of repeating appointments (say, 3rd Wednesday of each month). . . I dropped Jorte; may redownload it, it was pretty good.
@ doctorjazz: Pocket Informant DOES do the repeating appointments (it does the # of each month; the 1st Monday of every month; and will even do the 1st Monday of [every 2, 3, 4] months).
I'm in the same boat as those Palm users - I'm just trying to find something that works as well as me samsung 1-300 from 2002...
@ world: My opinion on the calendar apps if anyone cares-
Jorte - had it, used it for a while. It was the cutest girl at the ugly girl party for a while but I think the competition has gotten better and Jorte is no longer the only game in town...PROS: (1) clean look, small type = lots of info on screen (2) straightforward and easy to use; (3) the (2x2 agenda) widget has tons of info on it, which lets me easily see what my schedule is w/o looking at the app CONS: (1) uses the stock new event screen, which blows; (2) too many touches to edit events, but don't like the lack of functionality of the widget.
Business Calendar - downloaded it a couple days ago. PROS: (1) LOVE the week view scrolling function (you can see the whole day sorted by time for 1-14 days, by sliding a bar on the bottom, this is GENIUS). (2) has way more functionality than Jorte. (3) The month view is probably the best out of them all (close second is Pocket Informant). (4) Also, I like the week view 2x2 widget. CONS: (1) aside from the sliding week view, Pocket Informant has everything BCal has
Pocket Informant - downloaded a couple days ago. The best I've got so far. PROS: (1) It has everything I want, (2) the event entry screen is not the stock screen (way better, esp in date entry & custom reminder time). (3) amazing month view (you can see the events for a particular day w/o leaving month view) (4) easiest to edit existing events (= less touches) (5) best integration of tasks. CONS: (1) no widget (really?), but I use Android Agenda Widget...If these two apps get together, everyone else might as well pack it in.
(2) month view doesn't show schedule without touching the day.
-Touch Calendar - downloaded a couple days ago, loved it for what it did and because it was very pretty, but uninstalled because it doesn't do what I need. It's great as an overview for the month but it doesn't compete in most everything else.
-Pimincal - haven't tried it, but I might because the palm setup was so good and because everyone here swings from it so hard.
imo. THANKS GUYS.
It's called..."calendar snooze." I downloaded it about an hour ago, and seems to do everything I want it to and more. (e.g., 1 - "snooze for" [#] [min/hr/day]; 2 - "snooze until [date/time]; 3 - default snooze, 4 - edit item, etc). It acts kind of like an alarm clock, going off every 15 - 30 seconds or so until you choose to do something with it (you can mute it though). Im super stoked on it so far.
