Best Calendar App/Widgets? - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

What are the best Calendar apps or widgets, of any variety and quickly why?
If the app costs $, be sure to say so!
I'm compiling a list of threads that will help people find the best apps/widgets of each category. Will recompile when done so your help is greatly appreciated!

LaucherPro!
Plus version has a calendar, contacts ans sms widget
PowerNote for notes and widget, has a nice UI
Smart ShortCuts creates shortcuts of apps by catergory
BuzzBox for news!
Beautiful Widgets! Has a niiice weather unlock animation and a clock with themes.
That's all I can tell as for the best in my opinion...
Cheers!

Back again, just tried business calender beta. Nice app. but in my opinion Jorte is much better: more readable textiel in week view for example.

Pure Calender Widget
Pure Calender Widget, costs about € 0,79, but it works nice, very much functions, sizes, etc. I'm working with it for a long time now, and the dev is answering and trying to help if something comes up...

Agree with Kwarkje, find pure calendar widget the best solution for me, multiple widget sizes, skins and quick add event function,

I've used Smooth Calendar for over a year because it's simple and looks good. I just recently switched to Jorte for something different and I like the layout of both the app and widget so far.

My favorite is colorize widget. It has an agenda widget just like sense and also has facebook and twitter widgets similar to the friends stream in sense. Best of all its free.

Jorte by far.. LOVE the look and teh fact it has just about every widget size you can imagine

Android Agenda Widget is a nice scrollable agenda widget. It has a mind-boggling array of settings and potential customizations to make it look just how you want.

Jorge gets my vote. Great Widgets and settings.

working on jorte
i found jorte to be giving too many options to customize, which suits every screen

Do you have .apk file for Jorte?
edit: ok now ive got .apk file thanks you

Really nice, hadn't found about this one yet

I like Pure Grid Calendar Widget for a nice customisable calendar style widget. The only thing that would make it better is if you could switch between an agenda view and calendar, like the Launcher Pro Plus widget.
Oh yeah, and it costs €1.49

Just found out how awesome puregrid calendar is

I'm sure plenty of folks are using this already, but I just found a most excellent feature in the puregrid calendar widget that I wish I had known about sooner. I had thought LP's calendar widget and the puregrid calendar widget were just substitutes for the sense widget, but this just makes puregrid superior!
I've never seen a screenshot showing PureGrid's "Timelines" feature, so I just thought I would throw it out there for the benefit of others...
Nice

[Q] What is the best calendar widget?

I like the stock widget, but it's too small and I'd really like something different until 3.1 comes out.
I need a Calendar widget that:
looks great on honeycomb
can be resized (or at least be large)
strong customization
Also, I don't mind paying for it. Does anyone have a recommendation?
I use Agenda Widget Plus and I love it! It's scrollable and has lots of customization potential, although it is tedious to customize.

Thanks! Trying now
Android Agenda Widget.. its free too
Pure calendar widget.
+1 for Android Adgenda Widget. Still seems a little small at it's max size, but I love it on my Evo, and certainly a step up from the stock one.
Small? Odd.. I'm using the 2x4 widget on my TF home screen and its plenty big enough
Jorte is a really nice Calender with various widgets.

I like Business Calendar
I switched from Smooth Calendar to Jorte to BUsiness Calendar and now stopped at Colorize Widgets. It shows both a monthly calendar and agenda type calendar. happy with it and its free.

[Q] Good Replacements for HTC Sense Widgets

Hey guys, i really love the AOSP ROMs, but i miss the sense widgets a lot. Anyone know any good replacements for them, especially the following widgets?
=>People Widget
=>Friend Stream
=>The Giant Weather Clock (there's a ton, i need to know which you think is the best)
=>Messages
PS - I do not want to install a launcher like ADW, GoLauncher or LauncherPRO, so keep those suggestions out. Thanks.
in my opinion the best replacement for the weather clock widget ist fancy widget
ty it out
Thanks, will try it. I really need a widget to replace the PEOPLE widget, i really miss that...

sry cant help you there because i never used that widget
Pure Messenger Widget replaces Friend Stream for me. It can also display Emails, Messages and Call History. Pure Calendar Widget replaces the huge Sense Calendar widget.

Android pro widgets does the trick for me when I go non-sense. Although the "people" equivalent is not linked to facebook, sms and etc.

Yeah, i am using that now. The widgets are not nearly as polished as those in sense,but they'll do.
I like the go launcher widgets most, they are near by to the sense ones, but unfortunately not useable without go launcher(except go weather widget, a nice replacement for the sense clock/wheater widget).
i prefer the go weather app for weather. it works without the need for go launcher. as for people... im still searching... btw, chk out agile lock if u want the lockscreen. it works well, no lag and like in sense, you can put custom lockscreen apps...
I use gosms pro for messages, really good imo
I use Photo Contacts Widget

The HD Widgets (recently in that 10p sale) is very nice. I've used it in post #282 of the screen shots thread. Not as many skins as Beautiful Widgets, but still a nice looking clock.
Another clock I like which doesn't get much of a mention is WP Clock. It's more of a Live Wallpaper than a clock, but it lefts you have a nice, clutter free main homescreen.

I've been using apw since removing sense, suits all my needs.
I use simple calendar widget as a 4 x 1 home screen widget . It's has highly configurable and customizable colors and fonts.
For full screen you can't beat the sense calendar month widget, unless you're not on sense and then another vote for Android pro widget

I'm glad I came across this thread. I've been looking for something to replace Go Calendar, and Android Pro Widgets does a great job.
I got business calendar when it was cheap but I think its an awesome calendar haven't had any problems as of yet with both Google and jorte events dissapeared on it very annoying.
Totally posted in the wrong thread, sorry Anyways, Pure Calendar Widget Agenda is the best

IYO Best Calander Widget

I used to use Go Launcher Calendar and it worked amazing for me, especially the widget.
I was wondering if anyone knows of any other calendar widget that works just like that for stock/ custom roms?
Try DigiCal Calendar & Widget
