Improve event overlapping
Overlapping events does work in general (and is my preferred method over side-by-side view in day or week views).
However: sometimes the overlapping algorithm fails, e.g. one event completely overlaps another event (e.g. if both at the same time).
I use 10-15 calendars (categories) at the same time, so it happens quite often, that I have events listed at the same time or overlapping.
Please fix and improve the overlapping algorithm (e.g. minimize the sum of percentages that are overlapped by other events)

As a father of three having a life of my own I can only agree!
An indication that there is more than is displayed shouldn't be hard I think? -

Currently, only 4 simultaneous events can be displayed in day view and the other ones are ignored. I would like to have a way to change that, or an indication that some events aren't displayed.
This would be useful when syncing external calendars (eg: University schedule, Facebook, family), which can lead to many events

I would suggest to have 1 calendar as primary, so all events in this calendar are shown at all times. Overlapping events of other calendars are shown less "prominently".

Or swype through / select arrows / flag appointments after selecting one

Or/And just add option to prioritize one calendar. Usually i'm interested in my calendar(details) and just want to look how other people are available to schedule an event

Yes, mentioned this a few times myself to the support email address. Does look clumsy, and there is a lack of consistency across views, devices, etc.
