For ease of use and setup (just add the satellites you want), I find SatSat to be perfect for what I want to do; including a nice feature to add a calendar reminder with notification! Easy to see passes for the next week, etc.
Try a few---use what works for you! ;)

Try a few is great advice. I decided one day to download and try them all —even if it cost a few bucks.
While I agree the ability too set calendar entries is great (and that is a feature a few of them do), what I or another person like, might not work for you. Also, not every app will have all the features you want normally. For example, I would love to see a footprint in SatSat but it’s other features, make it so darn easy to use in the field, I go with that one.
Good luck,
