CalenGoo

Easy access to your Google Calendar with your iPhone or iPod Touch

Introduction

CalenGoo gives you a fast and easy way to access and change your Google Calendar (or Google Apps Calendar) with your iPhone or iPod Touch. It even works when you have no internet connection. Changes are saved and uploaded the next time you are connected.


It has currently four different views to display your events:


  1. •Day view (as seen on the left, similar to Google Calendar's day view and including the new landscape variant)

  2. •Month view (it can be zoomed by tearing apart two points with two fingers)

  3. •Week view

  4. •Agenda view (shows your events as a list)


To see screen shots of these views, look at the left of this page and scroll down a little.


CalenGoo's views display events similar to the web view of Google Calendar. Events are displayed in the same colors that you use in your Google Calendar. It also recognizes which calendars are visible and which are hidden. So the view should match the view of your Google Calendar as much as possible.


Recurring dates are also displayed and are editable. Even when you are offline or scroll far into the future, they are correctly displayed.


CalenGoo has also a search function where you can quickly find specific events, e.g. the birthday of someone.


There are a lot of configuration options, e.g. to increase the font size or change how events are displayed.


You can also use Google Calendar's feature to invite people to events and see their status (accepted, declined, maybe, no answer). They will get an invitation email with links to e.g. accept or decline the invitation.


CalenGoo syncs directly with Google Calendar. Due to limitations of the iPhone OS that affect all non-Apple apps, CalenGoo and other apps cannot sync with the iPhone's internal calendar nor can they have offline-alarms. The best is to use Google's free (see link) SMS reminders for which you just have to enter your mobile phone number on the Google Calendar website ("Settings", "Mobile Setup") and that will allow you to get reminders for your Google Calendar events even if you do not have an iPhone but another mobile phone.
