OmaCal

What OmaCal is
OmaCal is a free native desktop calendar for Linux and macOS. It connects with Google Calendar, iCloud, and CalDAV servers using two-way synchronization, and supports multiple Google accounts, iCloud, and any CalDAV server with controls for displaying and fetching individual calendars. Calendar views include Day, Week, Month, Year, and Big Year, with list modes for Day, Week, and Month. You can create, edit, delete, and repeat events, and import or export .ics files. Subscriptions can use Google Calendar, iCloud, CalDAV, webcal, or .ics sources, while CardDAV address books can suggest guests. Tasks may come from iCloud, Nextcloud, or CalDAV, or remain local; Apple Reminders lists are not accessible. Desktop notifications, reminders, a tray icon, start-on-login, and agenda widgets support daily use. Data is cached locally, credentials use the operating system credential store, and the maker says there is no server component, account system, analytics, or telemetry.
