Hello, In actuality, the iOS calendar app can be as efficient, if not more so, as the old note-taker. I use it daily to make and maintain work appointments.
It does require becoming extremely comfortable with moving one's finger around the screen to find fields. However, once this is mastered, calendar becomes very efficient.
