I’m trying out @fastmail but because they don’t offer a widget or a standalone app for the calendar, it takes 4 taps (edit: 2 if you enable the bottom menu) to simply check my calendar for the day 💀

1) Open #Fastmail app
2) Open side menu
3) Open drop-down menu
4) Finally switch to calendar view

I submitted a ticket to make sure I wasn’t missing anything (edit: workaround is to use #iOS Calendar app) but is anyone successfully using Fastmail as a #Google Calendar replacement? My current setup:

Another huge issue with #Fastmail calendar: there is zero integration with map apps.

Need to navigate to an appointment? Tapping the “Where” field does nothing, because it’s plain text! Need to add a location? Manually search and copy/paste the address (or as Fastmail Support suggested, the Google Maps URL), then open Google Maps again when you’re heading out.

Apple Maps sucks and #OrganicMaps is horribly outdated and won’t even let me log in with my #OSM account… de-Googling is impossible 🫠

Creating a new event in the Fastmail calendar. I have “Daily Fuel”, a local restaurant, typed into the “Where” field. At this point, Google Calendar will pull in the Google Map info for this event. Fastmail does nothing.

Viewing an event imported from Google Calendar in Fastmail’s calendar. The full address is there, but it’s just plain text, so tapping on it does nothing.
