User reviews

Excellent AreaBook Dupe!

I’m really liking how closely this resembles Areabook as nothing else has quite compared since I got back from my mission.

I would appreciate seeing the progress bar throughout the day, and I would also like to have it sync with Google Calendar. How can we do that?

Response from developer

Hi! I’m glad you’ve enjoyed it so far - we just dropped those two features today! Is there anything else that you’d like to see? Please bettercalsupport@connectitcorp.com and let us know if we got it right!

Needs improvement

This app could be great. I love having goals built in that I can customize and I really enjoy having the planner part. There are a lot of bugs that need to be fixed before I make this app my only planner. Also the canvas feature isn’t very accurate and there’s not much it can tell you, better to just use the canvas app separately. So the paid version is definitely not worth it.

Hi nedak123, I’m grateful for the feedback, we have updated the app with performance enhancements, would you be able to email bettercalsupport@connectitcorp.com and let me know any others you have, and what you think we could add to the pro version that you feel would be worthwhile. Thanks! -Mark

One more thing.

This app is amazing. Thank you so much to whoever made it. There is one option that would take it from 90 to 100 for me. In our mission we used the filters a lot. It would be great if there was a physical filter on the map where you could filter events right there depending on what type of event it is (meeting, event, work, etc) and also your contacts like the designations that you already can make in the settings. Over all, amazing app. And thank you so much for making it! I look forward to a potential update soon!

I love that thought, Coca! I will look at adding that in the future! Thank you so much much for the support, and feel free to email bettercalsupport@connectitcorp.com if you have any other feedback / features!

The App I've Been Looking For

This app is exactly what I've been looking for ever since I got home from my mission! There are a few minor details to improve, but it's already so much better than my regular calendar app! This app helps me stay organized and manage my time on a daily, weekly, and monthly basis! I love that there are even weekly goals you can set to help you remember to try making a new friend, going to the gym, making a meal at home, etc. It's different from how I used this type of app on my mission, but that's the point! I'm excited to see how this app continues to evolve and improve!

Room For Growth

Great ideas behind the app. It has the kinds of detailed settings you would hope to see to tailor a calendar to your own preferences.

Few notes:
Daily view is great, but it would also be nice to have a monthly view with events. Like a list view where the month fills the top half of the screen and when you click on a day the events for that day fill the bottom half of the screen.

Also, there is some issues surrounding the events. If I change an event color inside the event itself, the color doesn’t update until I restart the app. Second, when I delete or edit a repeating event and select the option “just this event” it impact all events past and future. This really constrains the flexibility to use the calendar function which is the point of the app.

Hi Static Bird, we're sorry to hear this. We are in the process of adding a monthly view and we have fixed the color selection issue. Please feel free to reach out at bettercalsupport@connectitcorp.com if you have any other ideas - we'd love to earn back those three stars! -Mark
