### 3/5 — Need more options

*2025-04-08*

I love this app as basic as it is, but it really does bug me till I actually do what I need to get done. That’s very important. The only thing that I wish they would allow smaller font.
You can’t change the size of the font. It’s very basic whoever does this app please work on it we love it

### 1/5 — Use to work great

*2024-11-29*

I’ve had this app for years & used it everyday. Recently even when I turn the reminder off I still get alerted. I ended up having to delete the app because the alerts won’t stop. Super bummed about this because it has been a huge asset to my day and I can’t seem to find one that works like this one used to.

### 3/5 — I've Loved This App for Years, But Now There's A Glitch

*2024-09-21*

This has been my go-to app for many years. It's always served me perfectly. However, recently I discovered that the reminders keep coming every minute despite my canceling it or deleting it. No matter what I do, it keeps buzzing. Can you please fix this? I use it for my as job as an assistant to a busy CEO and desperately need this to work. Please, and thank you.
