I agree no one should have to pay just to have access to some calendar functions on your phone, and no one has to since the native calendar app is free. I also don't have a problem with a developer coming up with an app, any app including a calendar app, that has a unique set of features that

At least for me, one factor to consider when getting a new iPhone, is how long you've had your current iPhone. I've only had my iPhone 8 for about 2 and a half years. As much as I thought about getting a new iPhone, I stopped and thought that I hadn't had my current iPhone all that long. I will

I could see how the top of the line Pro models will go up in price especially if one with 2 Tb storage is offered, but I doubt that a regular iPhone 14 is going to cost a lot more than an iPhone 13 this year. I have an iPhone 11 and I certainly don't see a need to upgrade and just as

Richard, Fantastical still allows you to set custom recurrences. I have not paid for their offerings and still have been able to do all the things I was able to do before they started charging. I have not seen any added value for me in paying for their higher-tear plan, and don't think I should
