Have a consistent look & feel for appointment entries/amendments and back button/cancel..
1) Your single tap, pop up window for the monthly view is wonderful! Makes it much so easier than double tap, to go to DAY view and then to select an appointment for updating or have a new appointment entered. Why don't you make it the same, consistent access for all the other views? Pimlical/A actually does that, so it is a lot more consistent. Whatever view is displayed, a single tap always pops up the dialogue box.
2) For the back button, which I have configured to be the CANCEL function in the EDIT view, there was a warning message to confirm that I wanted to discard my changes, while exiting a full day appointment (task) edit with my back button (CANCEL). However, when I did exactly the same thing for an appointment set for the next day, the back button CANCEL function took effect with no confirmation warning. Why the inconsistency? It would be good to always have a confirmation when the back button is used for the CANCEL function.
Please advise. Thank you.

Thank you for your prompt reply. Although the Day view and the Agenda view do have text that are reasonably large enough for the appointments to be selected for update, however, sometimes the Day view contain quite a lot of appointments all bunched up together. In that case, it will still be quite difficult to select exactly the desired appointment. More importantly, having pop-up windows for all views will make it more consistent. There are also actions such as marking an activity as completed or cancelled, that can be carried out in the pop-up window level, without having to go down to the Edit view. Hope this clarifies.

Thank you for these suggestions! Regarding #1:
I suppose you mean the week view should display the pop-up window, but probably not the day view or the agenda view, right? So you just need it for the week view in addition to the month view?
Regarding #2:
When using the back button to cancel editing an event, CalenGoo checks if something was changed. If not changes were made, no warning is displayed.
