Sunrise Calendar is now optimized for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus

November 13, 2014

One of the best free third-party calendar apps available, Sunrise Calendar, has just made the move to version 3.0 adding a number of new features.

First up, the app is now optimized for the higher resolution screens of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. So both text and images should be much sharper for users of those handsets.

Users can now also take advantage of the new iOS 8 Notification Center widget that details upcoming appointments. As you can see, it looks to be beautifully designed and well though out.

The calendar has also rolled out integration with two other popular Web services – Google Tasks and Eventbrite. Users can now create and edit Google Tasks directly from their favorite calendar. When a ticket is purchased through Eventbrite, all of the pertinent information will automatically appear in the app.

A universal app designed for the iPhone/iPod touch and iPad/iPad mini, Sunrise Calendar can be downloaded now on the App Store for free.

Before today’s changes, the last major update to the app arrived in late September with support for iOS 8’s interactive notification feature. That allows you to RSVP to an invitation directly from a banner.
