The free version has restricted features. If you're new to Fantastical, there is a trial to test it out to see if you like it before deciding on a subscription. While Fantastical does have a subscription model now, previous users of Fantastical 2 get most of the features unlocked, so it's still very functional. The natural language input is also top-notch, as the app easily understands and fills out all of the appropriate fields while you type out something as simple as 'Have lunch with Mom at In-N-Out on Tuesday at 2 p.m.'

For example, you can have work calendars viewable while you're at work, but personal ones when you're at home. If you are running multiple calendars at once, things can get gnarly - Fantastical lets you customize sets of calendars to view at once, and they can even be location-based, so things don't get too crazy when viewing. You can customize your views for daily, weekly, monthly, and even yearly, and your agenda of events appears in the side bar as well. With Fantastical, you are getting a fully functional desktop app that also has a menubar version for quick access.
