Calendar

Easy to keep me on track as seem to be very busy snd donโ€™t want to miss planned events
Love it and will keep using

Alert time should be programmable!

Generally a good app but you should not be limited to fixed alert times (such as for example those offered by the app eg 10 min before / 1 day before etc). Even my old Nokia allows me to set a totally separate date and time for my alert. (eg I can add a calendar event for Friday at 10 am but set a reminder alarm for this event to go off anytime I choose (eg at 9pm the Thursday before or any other date and time I pick). Other than this the app runs well for me but this is a major problem hence I still tend to use old Nokia for diary, backing it up too Google calendar! Come on Apple, please sort out the ability to define date and time of requested reminder alarm when you add an event. Many thanks

Works well but would love a few more options

Love how I can put my appointments in with address and plan out my day to not be late. Wish that when your looking at the month view that if you have something planned thatโ€™s all day or for a couple days/week that you could change the colour of the date/number. Right now all the dates/numbers are white when looking at the full month, but it be nice if for example you had something planned for three full days their number would be a different colour like say blue. So that when Iโ€™m just glancing at the month I could automatically see that on those days I have something planned. Id only want this option go things that go for the full day or multiple days.

This digital calendar allows you to schedule events many decades in advance๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฟ๐Ÿ‘ผโ˜๏ธ๐Ÿฐ

I am 69 years old. Iโ€™ve witnessed good and bad things here on this planet. I Love God, family, people and honor the Sabbath Day from Friday sunset to Saturday sunset. Jesus is my Lord and savior. He died for my sins and yours. He will return and receive us as his own one day soon. I look forward living in a violent free peaceful place; no more suffering for innocent children and mothers. No more sickness and pain from chronic illnesses. I worked for a really good employer to provide for my family. Iโ€™m very thankful to my dad for showing me how hard work and staying focused can give you opportunities you couldnโ€™t imagine! Iโ€™ve had the privilege of visiting another country and invited to the Prime Ministerโ€™s mansion. I want to visit the mother land where creation started someday. God willing!
My wife and family are most prized possessions on this earth. My prayers are that we all be saved when Jesus returns!! Hallelujah!Hallelujahโ€™s! Amen!!

Handy but not quite polished

It is very nice to have my calendar in my phone so it is always with me. And it is great to be able to see my wife's calendar and she mine.

But this app has a big problem.

I missed several important appointments by showing up at the wrong time before I caught this Calendar app in the act of changing event times and realized that it was the problem.

When I am making an appointment, the natural flow for me is: I create a new event in the agreed date, then I enter the agreed time, then I enter the name and place.

Calendar does not cooperate with that flow. When I enter the name, it silently goes and changes the time to match that of the previous event of that name. It goes and silently changes that which I explicitly entered just a moment earlier! That is unacceptable.

If I were entering the name FIRST in a new event, then I can see how automatically setting the time could be helpful. But when I have already set the time, changing it silently is outrageous behavior.

Here is my suggestion to the developers. Before the app goes and automatically fills in any field, it should pop up a window asking permission to do so. And every field should allow a value representing blank or unset, and this should be its default value when a new event is created.

Calendar

I've been using this calendar for the last 12 years
All my work days are recorded from office main frame and viewed on my ph
Best work tool ever

Helpful thanks

Helps me keep organised. Simple to use and if I lose one device my calendar is on another. Brilliant

Fastest calendar out

Lacks some integrations to reminders but I personally just use the calendar for everything so this works great.

Super fast to navigate and perform all actions, and dropping links directly in to the calendar is a nice touch.

Reminders

Wish the calendar reminders actually came up as notifications or if there was an alarm option

This is a WONDERFUL app!!!

Iโ€™ve enjoyed the use of the Calendar app since I became an Apple Customer. Once, I got my first real cell phone, iPhone 8, I instantly FELL IN LOVE with Apple technologies because the only device I had for 3 years prior to that was the iPod Classic. As I got my hands on that first iPhone, with SO MANY FREE APPS, I used Apple Support nearly every day to become fully aware of itโ€™s abilities and when it would need to be updated. So I would use BOTH The Calendar App and the Reminder App to remind and alarm me of daily activities and weekly activities such as housekeeping, doctor appointments, specific phone calls, and my desired daily times for medication. My MOST FAVORITE part of this app is that you can use a ringtone purchased from iTunes as the Alarm sound if you choose to. With each app that has this ability and every beloved family member of mine, they all have a favorite song ringtone of mine for them. The default ringtone is my most favorite song of all time!!! Iโ€™m EXTREMELY HAPPY to be an Apple customer and highly enjoy the Calendar app too.
