The Calendar and Reminders apps look about the same as they did in iOS 26, but there are a couple of useful new Apple Intelligence features that make both apps more intuitive. Natural Language for Calendar Apple Intelligence in Calendar lets you add events by describing them in natural language. It identifies people, dates, and places while you are typing, and you can tap to add that info. It's not as fluid as Fantastical, but it's better than before.
