Premium purchase required to even use the app

I used to brag about this app to everybody! My entire life was on this app, I loved it so much. And then out of nowhere I get an add. Never gotten one of those before but I can deal with it. I see it offers a premium version, but I’m happy with how it works so far so I just shrug it off. Then I try to schedule an event and add an extra alert, a feature I had relied on forever. All of a sudden, I have to pay to use a simple feature that should be a part of any calendar. There was no alert for any of this prior to its update, and it’s entirely stupid. I get premium if its a new and improved version of the app that requires a bit of money, but there’s no reason to put a paywall in front of something as simple as an event reminder, especially if it was a small and free feature only a few weeks ago. Everything about the premium version introduction makes this app now unusable. I am deleting the app after years of loving it because it is legit unusable now. Sure I’ll miss it but I really am upset with this.

amazing until they added ads and locked features

Have been using this app for about a year now and have liked it much more than the Apple calendar, but now I’m planning on switching back to Apple or finding another app to use because of the ads and because they locked features I could previously use under this new premium subscription. The ads pop up right when you open the app and about every five clicks, and they are videos that cover the whole screen and that you have to watch for five seconds. Not sure what all features are locked now but I tried to set a reminder for an event before the day-of and it even said I needed premium for that. Really sad about all these changes and I hope the developers return things to how they were before :(

Loved it until adds started showing

Used to love this app. Still love its look and user experience, except, since a few weeks ago I started randomly getting ad pop ups. So now when I want to quickly add something to my schedule I get a pop up that slows me down and honestly sometimes makes me forget what I was adding. I'm viewing multiple personal plus a family calendar on this app. The best feature is that you can see the entire month on the screen with little lines showing first few appointments on each day, and you can also quickly toggle to a single day view while keeping the month calendar on the same screen.
For me this is a feature that is a must and I haven't found in any other app.
But I am about to research for other apps since the ads are driving me crazy, and if I subscribe to premium it doesn't say that the ads will go away. Ughh.

No happy about it

Free got years and know you have to pay for it. If not adds. Sucks

Ads

This app used to be great but they just changed it so every time you open the app there is an ad. Even if I quickly leave the app without closing it or my phone shuts off for a second, another ad starts. This is so inconvenient especially when trying to make plans on the spot or picking up an extra shift at work. I will 100% be finding a new calendar option that is ad free and still free to use. This was a huge downgrade for the app.

Ads

This app was great till they added ads, now it’s constantly asking for me to get “pro.” I can’t even add a new event without having to deal with ads. I’m out.

Was great but ads ruined it

I really enjoyed this app since it was easier to navigate instead of the apple calendar, but now that ads have been added I am disappointed. I understand needing to get like income from it I guess but like every time I need to check my schedule or tap out the app a new ad plays. Disappointed since I’ve had this app for years, and I get frustrated when I quickly need to check a date

Disappointed

I’ve used this app for years, probably 5 if I were to guess. It’s always been my go to and recommendation to friends. However, as of today apparently the free version of the app is un-usable. Makes you watch ads before being able to look at your calendar! Seriously? The pro version has zero perks or any benefits besides not having to watch a one minute ad to see what time your daily agenda. I can’t even figure out what the other “benefits” that are advertised. If you’re going to make the free version impractical y’all need to get to the drawing board to make the pro version more appealing. Maybe adding more color choices for the type event? Literally anything besides this bologne you’ve got currently. I’ll stick out this free 2 day trial I don’t think I can justify spending $1.99/month to get the same app features I had for 5+ years prior to this dumb update.

Ads Have Ruined It

It was a great planner to use until the recent introduction of pop up ads everytime you open the app. They also show up everytime you add an event or leave the app, no matter if it’s only for a few seconds. I will sadly be deleting it after years of use because these ads have made it unusable.

Keeps getting worse

This was the best calendar, until they removed features like adding and editing calendars. Now, every time you open the app there is an ad! (Unless you pay a monthly fee) I guess I'm using Google Calendar now!
