With so many different task management and calendar apps in the Productivity category of the App Store, I must admit that I often have a hard time telling some of them apart because the genre has become a little stale.
Nevertheless, Readdle has done a fantastic job with their calendar app - Calendars 5. It provides just the right level of functionality beautifully packaged in an interface that I know you’re going to find a real pleasure to use.

Schedule Management Done Right
I would have to say that the feature I find most appealing in Calendars 5 - Smart Calendar and Task Manager with Google Calendar Sync is the Natural Language Input.

This enables you to schedule tasks and appointments simply by typing in the specifics, so for example you could type something like “Meet mom at home at 5:30pm,” and your appointment will be automatically scheduled.
Enjoy Offline Synchronization
Of course, you’ll also find all of the usual tools such as creating to-do lists to keep an eye on your outstanding tasks. You can also set up multiple recurring reminders to ensure that you don’t forget anything that needs to get done.
