ComingUp Today vs Apple Calendar

Comparison

Apple Calendar vs ComingUp Today

Apple Calendar is the built-in calendar app on iPhone, iPad, and Mac that syncs events across Apple devices via iCloud. ComingUp Today can import iCloud calendars read-only using an Apple Account identifier and app-specific password, then show selected calendars alongside other supported sources without editing them.

Use iCloud Calendar and ComingUp Today together.

Optionally show selected iCloud calendars as read-only alongside internal ComingUp Today events. Continue editing provider events in Apple Calendar or iCloud; ComingUp Today does not write changes back. Apple Calendar is the client ecosystem, while iCloud Calendar is the connected provider account source. Only calendars in that connected iCloud account are eligible; local-only Apple calendars do not appear automatically.
