Apple Calendar vs Timepage

Apple Calendar

• People with an iPhone, iPad or Mac who want a calendar at no cost
• Seeing iCloud, Google and Exchange calendars side by side
• Families and friends sharing an iCloud calendar

Timepage

• People who use only Apple devices and want a calendar across all of them
• Seeing weather and travel time next to the day's events
• Households sharing one Family Bundle of calendar, to-do and notebook apps

Apple Calendar

• Apple's setup guide covers iPhone, iPad, Mac and iCloud.com, with Windows handled by syncing to Outlook through iCloud for Windows. No Android app is listed.
• Calendar on iCloud.com needs a tablet or computer; Apple's guide says it cannot be used from a phone browser.
• Editable sharing is limited to iCloud calendars and people with iCloud accounts. Everyone else can only view a public, read-only calendar.
• Time-to-leave alerts are not sent for destinations more than three hours away, and travel time does not update when an event's location changes.

Timepage

• Apple platforms only: iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch. No Android, Windows or web version is listed.
• A membership is required after the 7-day trial; once it lapses the app stays readable but becomes read-only and loses weather features.
• Bonobo sets prices per country by purchasing power parity, so the US App Store prices shown here differ in other regions.
• Tasks come from the separate Actions app, which needs its own membership or the Bundle.

Apple Calendar

Several accounts in one calendar

Add iCloud, Google, Microsoft Exchange and other CalDAV accounts and see their events together in List, Day, Week or Month view, with a color for each calendar.

Natural-language event entry

On Mac, typing a phrase such as "Football Game on Saturday from 11 am - 1 pm" creates the event with its date and time filled in. Siri can add or change events by voice.

Travel time and time-to-leave alerts

Adding a location attaches a map and weather, and Calendar sends an alert when it is time to leave, based on traffic or transit conditions. Travel time can be added to the event's duration.

Shared and public calendars

Share an iCloud calendar with other iCloud users as view-only or editable, or turn on Public Calendar so anyone with the link can view and subscribe to it.

Reminders next to events

Scheduled reminders from the Reminders app appear on the calendar, where they can be created, edited and marked complete.

Invitations and video call links

Send and answer invitations through iCloud, Exchange and other accounts. Events can carry a video call link, a FaceTime call on Mac, attachments and notes.

Timepage

Timeline and month heatmap

A scrolling timeline shows the week ahead and beyond, and a month heatmap lights up busy days so free days stand out at a glance.

Week, day and month views

Timepage 5, released in April 2026, added week, day and month views. In the week view an event is created with a tap and drag.

Weather and travel time

Each day shows temperature and rainfall forecasts, and events get travel time estimates for walking, cycling, driving or public transport.

Uses your existing calendars

It works with calendars already on the device, such as iCloud, Google, Outlook, Exchange, Yahoo and CalDAV. Bonobo says calendar data is not stored on its servers.

Themes and widgets

There are 60 color themes for the app, its widgets and its icon, plus home screen widgets for weather and events and Apple Watch complications.

Tasks from Actions

Scheduled tasks from Bonobo's Actions to-do app appear in the Timepage calendar next to events. Actions is a separate app covered by the Bundle.
