RE: Creating Events Quickly in iOS Calendar
If you already have the app, you paid $4.99 for it. It could be that you could choose not to subscribe and get the Fantastical 2 features for free. You would just have to wait and turn down the subscribe offer, or cancel after starting the trial if it shows up under subscriptions.

Reggie, I just made an appointment for myself like this: Me: "Make an appointment for September 27 called Dinner with Carol." SIRI: "What time?" Me: "5 pm."\\ SIRI: "what is the location?" Me: "My house." "Carol Baker or Carol Davis?" I did not deliberately leave the time out; I just forgot and I wanted to show you that SIRI will ask. And at the time I forgot that there are two Carols in my address book. | I get a notifications about all of my appointments; those are, I think, different from using the reminder app, which I never do.

Regarding FantastiCal. I've seen the option to subscribe and balked at the repeating cost. But I've been using it without the subscription and it suits my needs. What are the benefits to subscribing? It just seems unnecessary to have a subscription to use my calendar. Am I missing something?

Re: Creating Events Quickly in iOS Calendar
Using type with Siri and keeping hey Siri on makes for a great combination; you can very easily create complex events without Siri misunderstanding what you are saying.

As John said, using Siri is the quickest. If you do not use Siri either by voice or Type To Siri, It is a slow process. I lknowLed Fantastical 2 when it was a one-time purchase, but no calendaring a£p is worth $4.99 per month.
