SolCalendar 1.5.7
Fluent GUI with nice features
Users expect calendar apps to be extremely intuitive and take only seconds to add events. SolCalendar does just that. The app comes with instructions of use, so you'll get used to it in mere seconds.
However, there are no customization options, you can't change the background color or themes, this leaving you with a rather dull appearance. SolCalendar displays the weather in temperatures for your current location and updates it by the minute.
Sync your accounts and get all your calendar events in one place
The great thing about SolCalendar is that it lets you sync accounts and data, and have all your information in one place. The app also comes with all the upcoming holidays in the US calendar. In addition, days with important events are marked, so you'd know in advance of concerts scheduled in your city.
Moreover, the app makes it easy to shift from events in one month, to the agenda and even the to do list, which can be synched with Google Tasks. Also there's the option of disabling the calendar with US holidays or the one on your phone.
Enter events in seconds
Aside from the regular settings for making calendar entries, like time and the title of the event, SolCalendar also comes with a series of stickers, some portraying emotions, food or work, to make it easier to recognize the type of the upcoming event.
In addition, you can add a location tag, description, reminders and select the time zone and frequency. The app also comes with several widgets for your home screen, in various sizes and with many settings that can be done, including themes and the degree of transparency.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
Rather dull design for the calendar, but widgets come with themes and transparency settings. |
Function8
Synchronization is made in seconds, you can also disable certain calendars. The app also comes with a todo section and displays weather conditions. |
Security7
It doesn't pose any security issues but requires many permissions from your phone. Still, for privacy reasons you should think twice before geotagging an event. |
Battery8
Normal consumption of battery, you shouldn't worry about running out of power. |
Price9
No ads or in-app purchases, the app doesn't even have nagging messages to rate the app. Still, there's the option of recommending it on Twitter. |
Compatibility8
The developer didn't mention Android versions required for this app. |
A cute calendar app with more features than you'd expect.
