Sunrise Calendar
Sunrise Calendar's Meet feature makes meeting scheduling quicker, and the app now integrates with popular to-do app Wunderlist.
Pros
Easy Meets: Sunrise Calendar's new Meet feature eases meeting scheduling. Create an introduction message, add the "Meet - Sunrise keyboard" under Keyboards in Settings, and enable full access. Press the globe button on your default keyboard to switch to the Meet keyboard. Create your message, and then click the calendar button on the keyboard to pull up your calendar. Click time options on your calendar, click location to select one or add your own, and then click the check symbol to submit. Bonus: Your recipient doesn't need to install Meet to use it.
Excellent integration: Launch Sunrise Calendar, and the app gives you the option to add your Google, iCloud, Exchange, and Facebook calendars. You can also add plenty of productivity apps, such as Todoist, Evernote, Trello, and Google Tasks, as well as event apps, such as Eventbrite and Meetup.
Wunderlist integration: You can now create, edit, and view your Wunderlist to-do lists in Sunrise Calendar.
Many calendar types: Once you connect your calendars and accounts, Sunrise shows you a menu of calendar types to integrate into your calendar: Holidays, Religions, Sports, Moon Phases, Stock Exchanges, and TV. Select your time zone under TV, and you'll see a list of channels and TV shows to select. Once you've chosen your calendars, Sunrise imports your existing events. If your calendar gets too cluttered, click Settings to set these back to invisible.
Simple event creation and editing: Press the plus button to add your own event. Title it, set location, pick attendees via your contacts, and you're done. If you need to postpone, move the event around with a swipe.
Easy to navigate: Even with a lot of events on the calendar, it somehow never looks too busy. View your calendar vertically or horizontally by pressing the directional button on the top right. Click the Sunrise icon to RSVP to all of your events at once -- a great timesaver.
Location: Allow location access to receive weather and directions. Under Preferences, select whether you want your directions from Apple Maps, Google Maps, or Waze.
Cons
iOS 8 is mandatory: The Meet feature requires iOS 8 to function properly; otherwise you can't add the third-party Meet keyboard.
Hidden search function: The search bar was difficult to find. You will have to switch toAgenda view and swipe down on the monthly calendar to make it appear.
Bottom Line
With the addition of Meet and support for Wunderlist, Sunrise Calendar is one of the best calendar apps we've tried.
