Sunrise calendar is getting snapped up by Microsoft for "at least $100 million." The calendar app, which
integrates sources diverse as Google Calendar and Trello project management and is available on
Android, iOS, OS X, and the web, has carved out a niche for itself on the devices of many users.</p> <!--break--> <p>According to TechCrunch, Microsoft's plans for Sunrise are varied:</p>
<p>We've heard Microsoft will keep its apps alive as stand-alone products, while using some of its technology for its own future products. That's similar to what it did with Acompli, which Microsoft acquired for $200 million.</p>
<p>Acompli recently relaunched as
Outlook on iOS and Android, offering a fully-functional email client that stands toe-to-toe with Apple's and Google's. It might not even be a long time before we see what Microsoft has in store for Sunrise —
they bought Acompli just back in December 2014.</p> <p>Source:
