Calendar App for Repeating Event at Non-Specific Intervals

Does anyone know of an app (stock calendar doesn't do it) that will allow entering the same event, but at non-specific intervals?

Example:

Group Meeting
Mon at 0900
Tues at 1130
Fri at 1400

It's rather tedious to have to enter the same event for every single day the event occurs, especially if it happens for months.

Thanks...

I only use stock so I can't help in the recommendation department. I am wondering though, you show in your example that the meetings are at differing times in differing days. Would your meeting be at the same time on subsequent Mondays? If so, couldn't you just set up a weekly/monthly repeat that fits Mondays, and then set up another one for Wednesdays, and yet another for Fridays? If nothing else, it might tide you over until you get a better fix.

Another thought, have you looked into setting up that kind of repeat pattern on the web? I know that the online version has more options and controls than the mobile version, and it'll sync and repeat automatically once you get it how you want.

If you want to do it from the phone then Pimlical has the most flexible event entry I know, and does indeed allow you to set irregular repeats.

The appearance is rather old-school, and I don't find the agenda view works for me (my most important view), but it's the best I know for this purpose. What I do is use Business Calendar as my main calendar app, Pimlical for when I need to set up something complex, and Calendar Snooze to handle the alerts! Sounds a lot, but works for me ;)

Pimlical! Dang, not to hijack the thread, but I haven't heard that app name since I rocked a Treo 700p!

Floating Events!!

But ***$10 !!*** for what was free on the Palms :rolleyes:

How I miss my Treo 755p, Treo 700, Treo 650, and Treo 600.

Don't miss my Treo 700wx at all.

To keep my example simple, I only used 1 week. Over the course of a few weeks, the meetings are never
repeated the same day or time; totaly random.

Thanks...

A quick search found several apps. Do you have a specific one that you like?

If I'm going online, then I might as well add the functionality of being able to sync two different work schedules.

Thanks.

No, I meant using Google Calendar from the web to set up the screwy repeat patterns you need, then those patterns will automatically sync to your device
