popCalendar For Mac

In a performance-driven society, we have to become more and more organized in order to deliver and even surpass expectations to ensure our success and well-being.

But all that takes its toll in energy consumption, and whatever help we can get is greatly appreciated. Thus, we look for tools that ease our workload and help us cater to our time for recovery.

popCalendar does just that. It's a simple, yet very effective piece of software that integrates with your Mac's calendar entity resulting in a wonderful fusion of the two.

Ranging from year 1950 to 2050, it offers sufficient space for reminiscing past dear events and determining ambitions of the future, such as birth dates, marriages, special days and occasions.

After installation, PopCalendar asks for permission to access your embedded Mac's calendar, and it makes a great team with it, providing surprisingly smart and flexible solutions.

The nature and importance of tasks and events can be determined by a switch in colors, and 14 different sounds, making things customizable and easier to handle. Mail alerts can be set, and you can even pick the desired platform you want alerts appearing on.

Two instances of the application can be simultaneously launched, although that resulted in a one time crash in our tests. Apart from that, it had a great overall functionality. You can assign a shortcut to it for quick access from within the terminal.

It works closely with the built-in Mac calendar entity and they make a great fusion at that, offering ease of use, such as specifying the frequency for repeating alerts, varying from day to day, to weekly, monthly or once a year. In-depth schedule fragmentation can be used to satisfy the needs of even the most self-disciplined.

All sorts of details can be managed while mail alerts can be set, on any preferred device you want to receive notifications on. Moreover, you can integrate the tool into the autostart sequence, so it runs by default every time you turn on your computer. You can even include URL's amongst other auxiliary details.

The only inconvenience that we stumbled upon was the lack of a dropdown menu or similar setting allowing you to jump to certain dates, since frantic clicking doesn't make for smooth sailing.

To sum it up, PopCalendar may not have a particularly rich set of features, but it seamlessly integrated with the Mac calendar entity to provide you with an enjoyable interface and practical settings for consulting a calendar, managing upcoming events, and configuring multiple alarms at the same time.
