InstaCal 4.0

Photograph the school calendar on the fridge and every date on it is ready to add. Type “Lunch with Sam Friday at noon” and it’s on your calendar. InstaCal brings events, reminders, tasks and countdowns together, shows your time six ways from Agenda to Year, and includes the Mac and Apple Watch apps in the same purchase.

ONE PURCHASE. FOUR PLATFORMS.
• Mac: a menu bar calendar and full calendar window.
• iPhone: your agenda, widgets and the Live Countdown.
• iPad: calendar, agenda and event details side by side.
• Apple Watch: upcoming plans, tasks, countdowns and complications.
Share it with up to five family members through Family Sharing. No subscription, and no InstaCal account to create.

ADD FROM IMAGE
Photograph a school calendar, newsletter, invitation or class schedule, or share a photo, screenshot, PDF or web page. Every event, to-do and weekly class on it is ready to review and add. InstaCal reads it with Apple Intelligence, unticks what’s already on your calendar, and can put your child’s name in front of each title. Requires an iPhone or iPad with Apple Intelligence.

SIX VIEWS, AND ROOM TO TRY MORE
Move between Agenda, Day, Week, Month, Quarter and Year. In Day and Week, pick up an event and drag it to a new time; overlapping events stack instead of squeezing into slivers. On iPad, put the mini month and agenda beside the calendar. On iPhone Duo, each posture keeps its own layout, with upright styles like Planner Week, Wall Calendar and Quadrants built around the hinge.

A LOOK THAT’S YOURS
Choose Classic, Full Color or Pictures: a street view of where an event is, or a fitting picture for plans like Haircut or Halloween. Pick an accent color, and your widgets and Apple Watch follow it. Turn on the Chinese lunar calendar for lunar dates, festivals and the 24 solar terms across the app, widgets and Apple Watch.

EVENTS, REMINDERS, TASKS AND COUNTDOWNS
• See calendar events and Apple Reminders together.
• Organize tasks in lists with tags, priorities and checklists.
• Count down to trips, birthdays and milestones.
• Put one event on several dates at once with Add Another Date.
• Join online meetings and respond to supported invitations.
• See weather and moon phases, and get leave-by guidance for your next event.

ADD PLANS IN YOUR OWN WORDS
Type “Lunch with Sam tomorrow at noon” to create an event. Quick Add understands dates and times in 31 languages, with processing on your device. Use Quick Edit to move, rename or cancel events from the same field.

WIDGETS THAT KEEP PLANS CLOSE
Browse dates and check off reminders in interactive widgets. Keep your agenda, next event and countdowns on your Home Screen, Lock Screen or Mac desktop. On supported iPhones, the Live Countdown counts down to your next event on the Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island and in your Apple Watch’s Smart Stack.

MAKE ROOM FOR YOUR DAY
Use calendar sets, choose colors and display a second time zone. Your settings sync through your own iCloud. Add plans with Siri, Shortcuts or the Quick Add control on iPhone and iPad.

WORKS WITH THE CALENDARS YOU USE
Use calendars available through Apple Calendar, or connect Google and Microsoft accounts directly for richer event and invitation support.

IN YOUR LANGUAGE
The interface and Quick Add are available in 31 languages, from German and Japanese to Thai and Ukrainian. Dates and week starts follow your region.

PRIVACY
No advertising, tracking or usage analytics. Natural-language entry is processed on your device. Add from Image reads shared pages with Apple Intelligence and Private Cloud Compute. Optional feature-request submissions and event pictures send the content you provide to online services; see our privacy policy for details.
