Skylight debuts in Calendar 2 to keep your family organized

Skylight may have started out as a digital photo frame, but today, the company is more focused on helping families stay organized with shared calendars, lists, meal planning tools, and more.

At CES 2026, the company debuted its newest product: the Skylight Calendar 2, which offers a sleeker design than the original 15-inch calendar, but is smaller than the 27-inch Max wall-mounted calendar. Like its larger counterpart, the new digital calendar and family organizer app also lets you swap out the frame in different colors to better match your home decor.

The biggest selling point isn’t the digital display itself, but the underlying software and AI capabilities. The core feature — Calendar — is actually a combination of all your family’s calendars from whatever service you use, whether that’s Google Calendar, iCal, Microsoft Calendar, or even your kids’ sports apps, like TeamSnap.

The calendar is color-coded to see everyone’s schedules at a glance, and it’s even possible to import “calendars” that are actually just emails with a few key dates or flyers sent home in a kid’s backpack. (The latter is an AI feature where you can take a photo of the sheet and update the calendar with new events.)

The company is also trying to address other pain points for families like managing grocery lists, appointment reminders, meal planning, and recipe discovery. Of course, it can still display your family photos too, when not in use.

The app is well designed to be easy to read with simple navigation, pops and even pictures that make it possible for young children to use it. For example, they can finish their homework by looking up a picture, even if they can’t read yet. Parents also love the ability to plan meals, whether it’s simply pointing out that Tuesday will be taco night, or going so far as to find a recipe and make a shopping list. Skylight is useful here too, as it can automatically create an ingredient shopping list for you or even add it to your Instacart app.

Another smart AI feature lets you take a photo of what’s in your fridge and get a recipe recommendation based on what you have.

The need for such a system clearly resonates with customers. Skylight, a successful and profitable company since day one, now has more than 1.3 million families using its digital calendars to date, and more are likely to come as the new design ships.
