Ich kann den link nicht einfügen, es wird kein Video gefunden. Ich kann die Videos vorher nicht anschauen, bevor ich sie einfüge. Ist sehr mühselig. ### 4/5 — Klasse App - nur noch eine Bitte… *2022-12-17, version 5.5.8* Ich liebe diese app und benutze sie seit Jahren. Eigentlich klare 5 Sterne, aber ich habe noch einen Weihnachtswunsch an Euch: Wir alle wissen, dass Hardware/ Software sich immer mal ändert. Daher fände ich es super, wenn man den fertigen Kalender ab dem 24. als PDF druckfertig exportieren und herunterladen könnte. Für die eigene Festplatte. Bitte, bitte, bitte… die Erinnerungen sind zu schön um sie loslassen zu können! ### 3/5 — Not working well *2022-12-05* If you post in a group on Facebook the link doesn’t work. I love the idea and it was so simple but the link is not working correctly if posted in my group. **Developer response:** Dear Aimes770, sorry Facebook is handling links differently than everyone else, so we have to still see how to solve this problem. But if you share the Link per Email or post it to some Website, it'll work as expected 😊 ### 4/5 — Decent but a couple flaws *2021-12-28* Overall a pretty good app and was a fun surprise but my two complaints are that you can save photos but not videos, and that when you’re looking at a day and you swipe it doesn’t go in numerical order from lowest to highest, it just goes to the next tile. So if you’re on 1 and swipe instead of taking you to 2 it will take you to 8 or whatever the next tile is. All in all minor complaints as it allowed my wife to create a fun and thoughtful advent calendar. ### 3/5 — Mon avis *2021-12-02, version 5.4.1* Bien mais pas assez développé ### 2/5 — 😐 *2021-11-25, version 5.4* The idea is great, but it doesn’t send the link of the created calendar to the recipient. Error message: 502 Bad Gateway. ### 5/5 — 🎄Super persönlicher Adventskalender🎄 *2021-11-18, version 5.4* Seit Jahren nutze ich die Advents App um für meine Familie, Freunde und Kollegen Adventskalender zu basteln und ich freue mich, es diesmal mit den eigenen Videos noch persönlicher zu machen! Vielen Dank für das Update. Die App wird jedes Jahr besser ### 5/5 — Schöne Überraschung für besondere Menschen *2021-11-18, version 5.4* Ich benutze diese App schon mehrere Jahre und bekomme jedes Mal freudige Antworten auf die von mir personalisierten Kalender. Das macht immer wieder Spaß! ### 5/5 — Hervorragender Support *2021-11-18, version 5.4* Seit Jahren verschenke ich Adventskalender mit dieser App und alle Beschenkten freuen sich jedes Mal riesig darüber. Nun der Schreck, die App stürzt dauernd ab. Eine kurze Mail am Samstagabend und Sonntagmorgen schon die erste Rückmeldung, Sonntagmittag war das Problem bereits behoben UND ich wurde hierüber auch nochmal informiert. Hier bin ich über keinen Cent traurig, den mich die Kalender kosten. Vielen Dank an so ein tolles Team!!!!!! ### 4/5 — Love it *2021-11-08, version 5.1* Love the app and it’s such a great way to make a thoughtful Advent calendar for friends and family to enjoy. The only feedback I’d give is to change the patterns/design on the numbers a bit… it’s been the same for a couple of years now. ### 3/5 — Très bonne application *2021-11-08, version 5.0* Je valide advent app a 100%parce que c’est chouette,on peut créer nos calendrier et mettre ce qu’on a envie,raconter sa vie sur le calendrier et l’envoyer à des amis.par contre si j’ai mis 4etoiles c’est que enfaite je sais pas si c’est fait exprès mais c’est écrit en anglais quelques part sachant que je suis pas d’origine anglaise et est-ce que ça serait possible de modifier cette petite faute.répondez moi vite et à très bientôt j’espère que vous allez évoluer 😁. ### 5/5 — Absturz *2020-12-03, version 4.4.5* App stürzt nach dem öffnen sofort ab, Fehler wurde kurzfristig behoben. Läuft jetzt perfekt. Sehr schnelle Reaktion. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Déçue *2025-12-01, version 7.0.2* J’avais écrit un message sous chacune de mes photos , il n’apparaît pas , je suis déçue de votre application car j’ai payé en plus 2,99 ### 1/5 — Disappointment *2025-11-03* I was really excited about this and spent hours creating a calendar then I sent it to someone to test out and only about three of the days actually worked. 😔 All the others just came up as some “internal service error” screen. **Developer response:** Dear Contessa, We're truly sorry to hear you're having a less-than-ideal experience with Advent App 😔 We'd love to help make things right! For the best experience, we recommend that your recipient also downloads the app to view the calendar there 📱✨ If they were trying to view it in a browser, they may have encountered issues in the last couple of hours due to a temporary server problem on our end. The good news? Everything is back up and running smoothly now! 🎉 Please ask them to give it another try. We hope this resolves the issue! If you have any other questions or run into further problems, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team at support@advent-app.com 💌 Warm regards, The Advent App Team ### 1/5 — DW *2024-11-30, version 6.1.3* I paid two lots of £2.99 and cannot get the calendar to work on my fb wildlife group? It works on Messenger on a single person but not on a group. I want my money back please? ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-01-08, version 5.4.2* I created and sent this and the receiver couldn’t open the days it kept on saying ‘it only *** date and didn’t open even thought those dates/days have passed. ### 1/5 — Very Disappointed *2020-12-03* Does not open to the Nordic scene and I didn’t see anything on the website or App Store that we would be required to personalize each door. While a nice idea for those who have the time this was not required in the past. **Developer response:** Dear LongTimePurchaser, we are sorry to hear. We are sorry this app is not what you have been searching for. Advent App is all about sending a personalised calendar. There are plenty of apps out there giving you a ready made calendar. This one is for you making a calendar for your friends and family with personal pics and memories. We still hope you found an app which better suits your needs and wish you a happy Advent Season. Your Advent App Team ### 1/5 — Please fix bug *2020-11-29, version 4.4.3* Please fix the bug before December thanks ### 1/5 — ☹️ *2020-11-29, version 4.4.3* Can’t be opened since the update ### 1/5 — The App Won’t Open *2020-11-29* This app won’t open after download. Is a fix or update available? I don’t want to lose all the work I did creating calendars! **Developer response:** Bug Fixed! Sorry for the inconvenience! ### 1/5 — Crashes. *2020-11-28, version 4.4.3* Used to work. ### 1/5 — It won’t open *2020-11-28, version 4.4.3* I made a complete Advent calendar to send out. Today I went to send it, and the app would not open. So disappointed! I deleted and reinstalled the app (losing what I made) and even the new install won’t open ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Suuuuuper App *2025-12-01, version 7.0.2* Die App ist super übersichtlich gestaltet, es ist alles da, was man braucht, einfach genial! Und 2,99 € um die App werbefrei weiterzugeben. Ist mehr als okay. Danke App-Entwickler! ### 5/5 — Great App *2024-12-05, version 6.1.4* Great app, would love to see a landscape version for iPad if possible in the future please. ### 5/5 — Nagyon tetszik *2024-11-17, version 6.1.2* Imádom ### 5/5 — Tolle App, super Support *2024-11-16, version 6.1.2* Die App ist wirklich genial, einfach zu bedienen und man kann super schöne und persönliche digitale Adventskalender erstellen. Ich hatte anfangs ein kleines technisches Problem - kurze Mail an den Support und mir wurde sofort geholfen (die Antworten kamen teilweise innerhalb von wenigen Minuten). Super freundlich und motiviert. Vielen lieben Dank für die App und die Unterstützung! ### 5/5 — Pas mal du tout *2023-03-12, version 5.5.8* Original, très belle application. Cela faisait longtemps que j’en cherchais une. super ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2022-12-18* This is the first review I have ever written, and this app totally deserves it! It is free to send to friends, free to download, has no ads (not for me anyway, could just be a glitch on my device:)), I was disappointed at first that you could only send a link to share, but then I realized that if your friend has the app to, then they can type in the link on the app, and they can download it to their device! Anyway, I absolutely LOVE this app!!! ### 5/5 — Perfect *2022-12-03* This was exactly what I was looking for. I got to customize an advent for my daugther. My daugther wanted to make me an advent as well so she was able. We both have customized advents that we are opening one day at a time. I love that no one can cheat but it allows you to open all the days up until that day if you get behind. So you can catch up but can’t peek ahead. This was the best advent app I tried. ### 5/5 — Super! *2022-12-01, version 5.5.6* Nutze die App seit Jahr 1 und Familie und Freunde finden es klasse. Die Bedienung ist einfach und übersichtlich! ### 5/5 — Super App *2022-11-09, version 5.5.3* Sehr schön gestaltet, schöne Ideen, angemessener Preis :) ### 5/5 — So sweet *2021-12-09* I love to see pics of my family each day (so sweet) leading up to the Greatest Gift of ALL JESUS Birthday --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
