Turn your Lock Screen into a calendar you can read at a glance. Calendarly places your events, shifts, reminders, notes and countdowns on a wallpaper that updates each morning. Nothing to open, nothing to tap. Pick up your iPhone and see what is next. SET UP ONCE 1. Choose a layout for your month, day, week, countdown or note. 2. Select the calendars and reminder lists you want to see. 3. Add the morning automation in Shortcuts. Calendarly guides you through it. SEE WHAT MATTERS • The month, quarter or year at a glance • Today's schedule, hour by hour • The week ahead as a grid or a simple strip • Work shifts and days off • Lists from Apple Reminders • Todoist tasks, if you choose to connect them • A countdown to a birthday, trip, exam or due date, plus days since a date • A note you want to keep in sight • 58 layouts with custom colors, your own photo or a plain background FREE TO START Twelve layouts are free: four calendars, today's sticker, reminders, notes, tasks and four countdowns, including the life calendar. Automatic updates are included. On the free layouts that show a list, you see the next three items. Calendarly Pro removes that limit and unlocks all 58 layouts, personal photos, schedules, agendas, weeks, reminders, notes and countdowns. Choose monthly, yearly or a one-time purchase. Cancel a subscription at any time. YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE Calendarly does not require an account. Calendar and Reminders data is read and rendered on your iPhone, and is never uploaded to our servers. Todoist is optional and connects directly. GOOD TO KNOW Shortcuts is only required for automatic updates. You can update the wallpaper manually at any time. Calendar wallpapers work offline after setup. Task sync and purchases require internet access.

I really enjoy the calendar and the customization you’re able to do. Super easy to setup & understand. **Developer response:** Thank you! Really happy you’re enjoying it. I tried to make the setup as simple as possible even with all the customization, so it’s great to hear that worked :) ### 5/5 — Absolutely eye catching view of my commitments in-front of my lock screen *2026-08-20* Kudos to the dev! **Developer response:** Thank you!! Glad Calendarly has been useful for you :) ### 1/5 — Nope *2026-08-18* Looks and sounds great on paper, and fills a need I’ve been looking for to help out dementia addled parents, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired. I don’t know if it’s a lack of testing or foresight, but absolutely nothing about this app is simple, intuitive, or actually working. There is no amount of fiddling with layouts or setups that can actually get anything displayed on the lock screen, or even allow me to pick what to show. I have multiple reminders and calendars for it to pull data from and yet it showed nothing. In the process it deletes my previous wallpaper setup replacing it with nothing but black and a poorly composited image of a widget with the drop shadow from the clock that used to be there. I really tried for about 30 minutes to make this work, but it just doesn’t. For the amount of money they’re asking for this, it should be far more intuitive and actually work. This is a hard avoid for now. **Developer response:** I’m really sorry this didn’t work the way it should have. Calendarly does need a few setup steps because of how iOS handles wallpapers and Shortcuts, and unfortunately I can’t make all of that happen in one tap. I’ve tried to make the setup as clear as I can, and I also left a few places in the app where you can contact me directly if something is unclear or not working. If you’d like to try again, please email me at support@getcalendarly.com. I’d be happy to help you personally and figure out why your calendars and reminders weren’t showing. ### 5/5 — Very useful and thoughtfully made *2026-08-17* Super useful!!! Setup was a breeze, UI looks beautiful and straightforward. Thanks for this! **Developer response:** Thanks!! I’ve spent a lot of time on all the little details, so I’m glad it feels good to use! ### 5/5 — 简单而实用的 APP。 *2026-08-13* 开发者很慷慨，免费版本都能使用的很尽兴，感谢！ **Developer response:** 谢谢你！我一直希望免费版也能真正好用，而不只是一个“试用版”。很高兴你喜欢 Calendarly :) ### 2/5 — So Many Customizations Locked Behind Paywall *2026-03-07* Was one of the first to try this app. Loved it at first! Then, after a recent update, my layouts became stuck behind a paywall. Can’t customize your background without paying. Would love to see more from having a free version. And if the dev is going state that the first 1000 get early access privileges, they should stick to their word. If positive changes come, I will update this review. **Developer response:** I really appreciate you being one of the first people to try Calendarly. I’ve just released a new version, and if you installed Calendarly before February 18, you should now have full access permanently. The built-in backgrounds are free for everyone too. I hope you’ll give the new version a try. If your access still doesn’t show up correctly, please email me at support@getcalendarly.com and I’ll take a look. ### 2/5 — Paywall updates.. *2026-02-28* Downloaded as soon as I saw the dev posting the Reddit. Worked well but of course, too good to be true as they’ve moved to an overpriced subscription model and hindering any usefulness on the “free”. Was fun while it lasted but deleting now **Developer response:** Sorry to hear that, and I appreciate you trying the app in the first place. In the latest update we actually expanded the functionality available for free to make the app more useful without any purchase. If you ever decide to give it another try, I’d really appreciate hearing what you think about the current version. ### 3/5 — Useful but overpriced *2026-02-27* It’s a good app but I think both the yearly subscription and the one off cost is far to expensive for what you get **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate you taking the time to share it. In the latest update we expanded the functionality available in the free tier and also adjusted the pricing to make it more reasonable. If you decide to give the app another try, I’d love to hear what you think about the changes. ### 5/5 — Amazing - Works well and very valuable *2026-02-27* Just what I was looking for. I can see my day at a glance on my lock screen. I have it update every hour to show my upcoming events. Easy to set up. No bugs or crashes. Perfect **Developer response:** Thank you so much, really glad it’s working well for you! And appreciate you taking the time to leave such a kind review!! ## Frequently asked questions about Calendarly ### How does Calendarly display my calendar?
