  • I like it

    It’s a good app, but I stopped using it for a little while and now it won’t let me write on it and it’s really bugging me because I have a schedule I need to write down. I uninstalled it, then reinstalled it, but it didn’t make a difference. Other than that point, I recommend this app
  • Definitely not what I thought....

    Everything was great when I accessed the app on my iPad. I thought wow how cool and it was functional. However when I downloaded the app on my iPhone XS Max, that when the trouble began. The app did not sync my notes like it states it will. I did the troubleshooting suggested from the developers’ site and when I did that I lost all my notes. As of now, I still haven’t been able to recovery my notes.

    How can this be fixed???

  • Great App!

    I use this app to keep track off workflow and personal time. All functions very well and I honestly enjoy the layout and minimalistic design. One thing I would really appreciate though would be an option to insert a text box (to utilize the keyboard/touchpad) and an option to insert shapes, forms, pictures something along those lines. My handwriting with the Apple Pencil looks horrible when I have to write things down real quick :>
    If it should get implemented then I’ll add the fifth star ;)

    Edit: …and it would be great to have the ability to link, days, weeks, months etc. that way you can see that there have been notes place from the respective view. ✌🏽

  • Love this app

    This app does exactly what it claims to do, and it does it well. I have an older iPad, and I appreciate the “Performance Drawing” setting, which allows the Apple Pencil to function better on older iPads. This is a really well conceived, well executed app. Worth the money, especially when you consider it’s cheaper than a basic physical/paper planner.

    One note: it would be great if there were a full-screen function. The tabs along the top and the back/forward arrows on the left/right ear up a lot of space. It would be great if a future update allowed you to zoom into just the the content of the app, removing the navigation.

  • Page too light

    Finally a1digital planner where you can actually write in. I have one problem the lines and words that make up the calendar. It’s very light almost can’t see if you don’t open up. Please darken it. I thought by going into settings display and appearance I can darken the words and lines. Other than that I love it.

  • Handwritten digital planner for the win!

    Already love this app! Hand writing notes helps me organize my thoughts better and helps me remember them better too. I’d love to be able to do an export though so I can preserve this as a journal type thing. The landscape mode as everything I want. I don’t mind zooming in or out because that’s part of the beauty of iPads! Would be great in the future to add text recognition and an ability to search. App is well worth the price!

  • Quickly became essential

    I stumbled upon this app and I’m so glad I did. Within a day I had transferred my bullet journaling into the app. Within two days I could feel the app becoming ‘essential’ --- to the point where I actually worried about the app going away. For me that’s a sure sign that an app is making a real contribution to my life.

    I found Pencil Calendar intuitive to use. The UI/UX is professionally and thoughtful designed. Sync between my devices is quick and reliable and, most important, I’ve not experienced any data loss.
    I’m really pleased that I made the plunge investing in this new app. The dev team seems excited about the potential this app and I am too.

  • Good app - with potential to be great

    I love how this app works and the layout. Amazing! However I need two items to make this app usable in the long term. The first is a reminder, set a date / time to remind of looming deadlines or meetings and 2 a search function to be able to find items in the past for reference.

    Fun but unnecessary additions would be stickers, auto fill appointments across daily, weekly and monthly and ability to include attachments stored in other places.

  • I’ve been looking for an app like this since I got my iPad

    Because of this App I can keep My adapts and daily customer calls for each day and not use a manual datebook. I only wish that I had The ability to print out a single day both pages , or weekly schedule, or a monthly calendar
  • Seems to the job

    I would give it 5 stars if the info transferred from day/ week/month. Currently it is only on the page it was put in.
