CCal has better and more practical views
CCal displays your events by its title, not "dots". On the top of the screen, events of the month or week are displayed, on the bottom of the screen, the day's chart or list is displayed.
You can easily and quickly customize the split balance between top and bottom screens by swiping, one-tap, or dragging a split button.
When you have lots of events and they overflow from a cell, the indicator "▼" shows you have more events on that day.
When you tap this cell, events pop up to display the full list. You won't miss any of your events.
Double tap the screen to zoom in and out quickly.
Fingertip Control
Drag & drop your events to change date, or drop them in the trash.
You can drag an events by long-pressing on it. You can also copy & paste an event. To paste, long-press "+" button to show the menu.
CCal's Various views
TOP: Month, scroll, week, and weekly charts.
