Description
What and When is a widget displaying your agenda. It reminds you about your next appointments, tasks and anniversaries.Appointments are retrieved from your different Google agendas. Tasks are retrieved from one of the following applications : Astrid tasks, Dato GTasks or SSI gTasks. Birthdays (and anniversaries) are retrieved from your contacts list.
What and When is very customizable. You can choose the period to display (from 1 day to 6 months), to display or not the appointments, tasks, birthdays or anniversaries, and many other options related to these events (private appointments, overdue or with no due date tasks, contacts pictures, etc...). There are 4 sizes for this widget : 4x1, 4x2, 4x3 and 4x4. What and When can be displayed as well in portrait or landscape modes.
The widget appearance is customizable. You can set the display colors and transparency of the date, line of event and information bar zones. You can also choose the text color (between black and white) and some other colors. WARNING : you must have Android version 2.2 (Froyo) or above to customize the widget appearance.
You can have many instances of What and When on your desktop. You can configure each instance separately : for example one for appointments, one for tasks and one for birthdays and anniversaries.
What and When can also display the day and time of the next alarm. An information bar reminds you the number of active events for today and for the period that you have defined.
Shortcuts (that you can define) are available for each event line to open the applications related to these events (calendar, tasks manager, contacts). You can also add shortcuts on the events counters and on the alarm.
Lite version differs from full version for the following items :
- The events display period is limited to one week.
- Only one Google agenda (that you can choose) can be displayed.
- Private appointments can't be hidden.
- No widget appearance customization.
** NOTE **
What and When is a widget. So there is no shortcut in the apps menu. To install it, click on your home screen and select the Widgets menu item. There you'll find the icons of the What and When widget.

Good widget Good widget. Can view calendar events and tasks together with a nice interface. Will be 5 stars if there is an option to show the labels and description in 1 line only, so that more events/tasks can be shown within the block.

Where do appointments come from if not my calendar? Do I have to use one of the 3 task managers?

would use it but birthdays show up wrong for linked contacts, it shows one for each individual contact vs just one. Otherwise 5 stars
