What CalendarPad is

CalendarPad is a handwritten calendar planner for iPad and Apple Pencil, with year, month, week, and day planning views. You can write, draw, and annotate on pages, choosing from multiple layouts. The free plan includes the Month Calendar for current and previous months, plus PDF or PNG export. Calendar access can place selected Apple Calendar events in the Day planner. Home Screen widgets provide Month and Week calendars, while daily schedule widgets refresh for each new day. Pro adds future months, Year, Week, and Day planners, Apple Calendar event display, and backup and restore. Calendar data, templates, and settings can be backed up manually or automatically, locally or in iCloud Drive. The CalendarPad Pro upgrade costs $7.99, paid once, with no subscription. CalendarPad runs on iPadOS 17.6 or later and macOS 14.0 or later on Apple M1 Macs. The App Store disclosure says the developer indicated no data collection, though Apple has not verified that information.
