App: Importer for Calendar
Developer: Stefan Keller
Genres: Business, Utilities

Importer for Calendar lets you convert spreadsheet data into calendar events. You can import the events directly to Apple Calendar or save them as .ics files to import them to another calendar app.

# Main features
Importer for Calendar comes with many thoughtful features. Simply copy your data in your spreadsheet app to the clipboard and then paste it into the Importer for Calendar to convert it into calendar events. You can save field assignments for recurring imports, so you don't have to do the assignment from scratch each time. You can preview the conversion result before importing, using a list view or a detailed individual preview per event. To work with third-party calendars like Fantastical or BusyCal, you can save the converted events as .ics file.
The app can handle a variety of date, time and duration formats and also supports the creation of alarms.

# Privacy
Importer for Calendar does not collect any data. All conversion takes place locally on your Mac - a clear advantage over online converters where you never know what happens to your data.

# Is the app free or paid?
A full-featured app like this, which doesn't charge for updates, which doesn't display ads, has (and must have) its price. In a free basic mode, Importer for Calendar limits event titles to a length of 12 characters, among other things. This allows you to download and play around with the app for free to get a feel for whether it might be of use to you. Full functionality can be activated with an inexpensive one-time purchase.
