User reviews

Waste of time

Doesn’t even give you a winger.

Have to pay

Can’t see the Home Screen widget without the huge lock in the middle

Easy & Fun

Like this Ap because it is fun to use, easy to customize, and helpful to keep track of special events.

Stop with the subscriptions!!!

The free version is ok. You can count up or down. You can upload pics and I think set music (not sure who uses this feature but whatever). No widgets, lots of ads... but if you want to just pay for the app, it'd $14.99/year. That's obscenely greedy for such a basic app. A one-time fee of $5 would be the absolute most this is worth. It's not the most intuitive app either.

Used to be good but now ruined

I loved this app. It was nice and simple. Fun, easy to use, and now they're forcing me to consent to 47 advertisers??? No. I don't want it that bad anymore.
