In reality, it also increases the chances that something may go wrong, and that is exactly what has happened...
The native Calendar app for Windows Phone 8.1 has just been updated. One of the bigger changes in Windows Phone 8.1 is the ability for some of the 'native' apps to be updated independently of the operating system.

The Windows Phone native calendar. Let’s not mince words, it was quite…basic.
