Helps Me Organize!

I’ve always been someone that utilized calendars, but this one has to be one of the best specifically because it can link my type-A self to my partner that struggles to remember plans! We can put in what we’re going to have for dinner, what nights we have dates, family events, tennis matches, and more!! I also love the feature that everyone in the family can add events and that more than one person can be assigned to the event. We originally got the app because we wanted to plan meals between his turn to cook, my turn to cook, and his mom’s meal nights, and it’s so helpful for that but much more. I even left Apple calendar to put all my events in jam and have them all in one place (:

An absolute MUST HAVE!

I’ve been fortunate enough to try this app and it’s a big game changer for me and my family. I love having all of our dates in the same place. It really makes my life easier, especially with the good old ‘mum brain’.
The functions and aesthetic of Jam is super satisfying. 😍
Would highly recommend!!

Calendar function issues

I get persistent errors adding and removing reoccurring events. Removing reoccurring events seems to create orphaned schedules that don’t delete. After removing events it sometimes fails to
Log in. It auto renewed my subscription…. Too late… I paid for a year … dang!!! Avoid this app until they get those most basic bugs fixed…

I’ve tired them all- Jam is the best!

Over the past four years of being a mom, the be tried every family calendar out there. In our family we need one place to manage schedules for two parents with four jobs in four different industries that all have complex and varying schedules, an Au pair, and three kids. Yes, we live in a state of abject chaos, but with Jam we at least have some idea of where we need to be and when. The level of detail is great.

Amazing app for multi-generational caregiving

My husband and I have a neurodivergent child who has a multitude of appointments, classes and therapies every week as well as hours of administrative work between insurance and IEP’s. At the same time, my mom lives with us as well who has her own medical needs and appointments. Jam has been a miracle for our family getting my husband and I on the same page and keeping on top of everything we need to do for my son, my mom and our household. On a personal level, having everything in Jam has given me a level of calm because I know it doesn’t all have to live in my brain. Finally — I had a million questions about syncing my calendar (and a total mess old calendar situation) and the customer support was amazing! They got me completely on track and were so helpful!!!

Grandparents Dream!

The Jam family calendar has been paramount in keeping me in the loop with all my grandkids soccer games, gymnastics, dance and all the school functions! Now I don't have to drive my daughter nuts constantly asking her for all the information. This way I have it is right there at my fingertips and with any details when necessary. I don't even believe how much easier and less stressful this is for me and I am sure my daughter not having to constantly keep track for me. You will love this app and the time it will save you!!!! This app is a definite winner!!!!!

Jam- making our lives easier!

Jam has made our lives so much more organized! Previously, my husband and I had some shared lists on Apple or google for specific needs or events, but it was never smooth- someone forgot to share it, or the list was deleted, etc. With Jam, all of our planning and lists live in the same place, and there’s always a placeholder for the many many things we are trying to keep track of. We use the calendar to plan out our weeks, and it’s great. The best thing about the app- it’s the only thing we both actually use!

Hubs and I finally on the same page

This app helped my husband and I get organized with ours and our kids schedules. Gone are the “no YOU’RE taking him to karate today” and the “I told you to pack swimsuits to the birthday!!” And the shared lists are amazing for everything from grocery to To Do around the house stuff.

It removed so much of my mental load and hubs likes it too cause everything is all in one place and we fight less. Just a really well designed app. Highly recommend.

So easy to use

My parents got this app and invited me to join. It’s so easy to use - I have all my plans on there and everyone knows what’s going on. We kept track of all my school and college app deadlines. They can also tag me if I need to drive or pick up my younger brothers and all in all it’s a lot less drama for everyone. We used ti always miss things and now that never happens!

Works for our insane schedule

Jam is exactly what I’ve been looking for. I work full time and my husband travels most weeks for work — between our son’s school schedule, sports schedule and of course our dog (like another child!) our lives are super hectic. Jam helps us all know what’s up everyday, my son included. I especially love the feature where you send things to Jam and it ends up on the calendar!!
