See your whole year on one screen.
YearView shows all your iCloud and local calendars laid out in a year grid: twelve months as rows, days 1–31 as columns. Each event appears as a colour-coded bar in the grid so you can see at a glance how your time is spread across the year. It runs on the Mac and on iPhone and iPad.
Two views let you see what you need. Timeline positions bars proportionally to actual clock time within the day column, revealing how your hours are really filled; turn on Align Weekdays to line up the days of every month in weekday columns. Calendar replaces bars with a heat-map grid—four months to a row—where colour intensity signals how busy each day is. Click a bar or a day to see the event details.
A sidebar lets you toggle individual calendars on and off and filter events by time of day, weekend, all-day and multi-day events. A note shows which filters are active and explains an empty year. Time zone support works as in Apple Calendar, and the app is available in English and German.
On the Mac, an optional menu bar mode shows today’s date in the status bar and lists the day’s events in a popup, without keeping a window open. Right-clicking the menu bar icon gives quick access to open the main window, open Settings, or quit. You can also publish your year as a web page to share with others.

Download TestFlight from the App Store on each device you want to use if you don’t already have it.
On your Mac, visit testflight.apple.com/join/JDs7Q72G. On your iPhone or iPad, visit testflight.apple.com/join/HxtjfGcy. TestFlight opens automatically. The Mac and the iPhone & iPad app are separate betas, each with its own link.
Click Install in TestFlight. On the Mac the app appears in Launchpad and your Applications folder; on iPhone and iPad it appears on your Home Screen.
On first launch macOS or iOS will ask for permission to read your calendars. Click Allow full access—YearView is read-only and will never modify your data.
Neither macOS nor iOS offers a read-only calendar permission tier; the only readable grant is full access. YearView uses this permission to read your event data and display it in the grid. The app makes no write calls and has no editing interface—it never creates, modifies, or deletes any calendar or event.
YearView collects no data of any kind. No analytics, no crash reporting, no telemetry. Your calendar events never leave your device or your private iCloud.
Event data is read directly from the system’s EventKit framework and rendered on-screen. Nothing is written to external servers or stored outside the app’s standard app sandbox. No account or sign-in is required beyond the Apple ID used to install via TestFlight. Read the full privacy page.
