so i am looking for a better calender event/alert app than the stock one

anybody know of a really good one? also this is probably a dumb question but any one i use i would have to have "notifications" on right to be alerted? reason i ask is w/ the normal calender alerts i dont need notifications on it still works

If you are using iOS 4 then, no, "notifications" (push notifications from a server) are not required -- this is because iOS 4 supports so-called local notifications which an App can schedule in the future... perfect for alarms :)

Right but i need a app for a alarm, that can alert me not just the next day a specific date - any recommendations?
 
Nevermind :rolleyes:

NotifyMe 2 for anybody that may be wanting the same thing

Awesome app wayyyyyy better than the stock Calender Alert
