Very useful App

This app has proved to be one of my most useful. It’s simple to use, flexible, allows colour coding and I can update entries any time.

APP WILL NOT OPEN

I love this app, but for months it won’t open! I’ve tried rolling back iOS’s and nothing. I have tons of dates saved in it, and I can’t open the app to see them! VERY DISAPPOINTED. The app support is also non existent and I’ve tried to reach out personally and have yet to receive a response. :/

Has everything I need!

Cool app. I keep track of all of my upcoming events. You can change the colors of events as well. I love color coding things!

Keep up the good work!
