Create Multiple Calendar Tiles on Windows Phone with Iconical

Gone are those days when there used be just one Calendar. These days we have calendars for almost everything, right from birthday to appointments. There are personal calendars, business calendars and then there is Facebook calendar.

Now even though Windows Phone Calendar App does a good job in getting all of them in place, there is no way you can group them as per your need. Those who are wondering why separate them, its just about clearing the clutter.

Iconical Calendar

Iconical App is a Windows Phone calendar app which helps you just do that. In brief, this app can read details from all your calendars and then uses power of tiles to help you create multiple instances. This way you can have one tile which is personal and other for business. Below are the features:

  • Create multiple calendars from Windows Phone inbuilt calendars. Each of these can be named.
  • These appointments can be further filtered by Keyword ( Contains & Does not contain) and Time.
  • Displays 3 upcoming appointments when you choose wide tile.
  • You can choose how details are displayed i.e. Day of the week or month, Location, All Day Appointments etc.
  • It can also display when was the calendar last updated.
  • Choose your own colour for Background and Reminder.  You can choose how much ahead you should be reminded.
  • You can even create new appointments right from the app. This is only supported from Windows Phone 8.

This app is a masterpiece in itself. Not only the idea is pretty unique but it gets rid of all the clutter from Windows Phone Calendar. Those who use calendar day and night, this is a must have app.

That said, the app is mostly read only. This means you cannot really interact with the meetings as you can do it in the native calendar. I am assuming that we will get to see more features if the API is open.
