Now that you have a better understanding of what the difference is between Fantastical 2 and Fantastical 3 and why Flexibits has gone to a subscription model, please hop over to the App Store and give it a proper and knowledgable rating. We are looking forward to our new, predictable business where we get rewarded for our work as we do it.

We already have a big roadmap laid out where we can develop consistently and ship great new features and content on a consistent basis. This is not about charging you a monthly fee just to get you to start paying monthly. We don't have to wait two, three, or even five years for one big package of upgrades.

From the company blog, in addition to extra costs associated with running Fantastical 3, the company is moving to a more flexible upgrade cycle that gives us any and all great new features as they are ready. Speaking of subscription models, Flexibits isn't turning to this model simply so it can make more money. These are special gifts that Flexibits has given to us, it's loyal customers, for supporting Fantastical 2, and some people feel justified giving a one-star review because they don't like the subscription model.

Full task support (including adding tasks in Fantastical).The option to run in the background for the mini window on Mac.Full-screen day, week, month and year views on Mac and iPad.If you already had Fantastical 2 and you're updating (or already updated) to Fantastical 3, these are the additional features you get that no one else gets for free: People are complaining that they think Flexibits is forcing them to pay a subscription price to get the great features they are used to from Fantastical 2, but they're wrong. This is the part that disappointed me so much in the App Store review section. If you're upgrading from Fantastical 2, you still get to keep Fantastical 2's great features! The features I listed above are actually for those that either never upgraded from Fantastical 1 or for those that have never used Fantastical before. If you need those extra features, $40 per year is a small price to pay. There are just some new features that cost Flexibits money to run (like managing invite proposals). The same views, Lock screen widget, and Menu Bar add-on.The same awesome natural language new event input.The same weather forecast support from AccuWeather (it's only three-days out instead of 10).The same awesome reminders and tasks lists, including support for iCloud Reminders, Todoist, and Google Tasks (you just can't add tasks from Fantastical).The same basic calendar features with adding and managing your calendar accounts.
