perfect for me and my friends

yes

Very limited if using the free version

If using the free version, the app is very limited and I am not liking the organization and view options (weekly). I’m sure the paid option will be better. May delete this if I can find something better.

Response from developer

Thank you for the honest feedback. We’re sorry the free version and weekly view don’t feel flexible enough for you right now. We’re continuing to improve the organization and view options, and feedback like this helps us understand what needs to be better.

Not free

I downloaded after searching for free calendar apps and as I finished setting up now it’s only a 7 day trial. Wish these apps would disclose clearly before wasting time.

Sooo close to perfection

If I could color code different events that would be AWESOME!!!! Yet there’s only the colors of the family members available. It helps with work schedules and such- but combined family events or important things- we need more color

Everything you do, you have to pay

I don’t appreciate apps that make you pay for every little thing you want to do! I couldn’t even see the whole days of the month unless I paid money or do anything except for the current weeks. This app is a waste of time and can’t believe they advertise these stupid apps!

Response from developer

We’re sorry Cubbily felt too limited in the free version. :( Month View is currently a Pro feature, but we understand why that’s disappointing if you expected more free access. Thank you for the honest feedback, it helps us keep reviewing how to balance useful free features with supporting ongoing development.

Not worth it

I won’t download this app. It’s not a free app. The features in the free version are practically useless. The view of the colander is weekly view which again is useless. Charges for the paid version are high and not worth it.

Response from developer

Thank you for the honest feedback. We’re sorry Cubbily didn’t feel useful enough in the free version. We’ll keep reviewing how to make the free experience more helpful while still supporting ongoing development, and feedback like yours helps us improve.

Functional but annoying

The utility of this app is great for scheduling family reminders, but for some reason it feels the need to constantly send me notifications that I can schedule things on this scheduling app. I want to disable notifications so it will stop sending me useless messages but then I wouldn’t get the notifications of the things I am actually scheduling.

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for the feedback, and sorry for the annoying notifications. You can adjust some notification types in Cubbily → Settings → Notification settings. If that doesn’t let you turn off the specific messages you mean, you can go to Settings → Contact Us in the app and tell us which notifications you want removed so we can improve this more precisely.

Great customer service

I switched from google phone to iPhone and when I tried to log back into my Cubbily-pro account, login in from a google account was not available to the iPhone start page. I emailed the team hoping to regain access to my original account. Their responses were prompt and helpful. They fixed something in the back end to allow this to happen, and even prompted me with an email that the change was successful. And now I’m back in!!! Definitely one of the best tech customer support services I have encountered in years.

Hi Moni, it's great to see you again. Thank you so much for the 5-star review, we’re truly glad we could help you get back into your account, and your kind words about our support mean a lot to our team!

Great calendar app

Love that you can share with family and everyone syncs and see what’s happening what’s coming. It would be great if able to have more than one reminder with free version but overall great app

Response from developer

Hi Tiko, thank you so much for the 5-star review, we’re so glad Cubbily is helping your family stay in sync, and we really appreciate the suggestion about adding more reminders to the free version.

Meh

I don’t like that I can’t add events or work shifts without that person being in the family. I just want to add everything and have my family see it.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback, we understand the need to add schedules for someone who is not an invited family member. As a workaround, you can create a Child Account as a placeholder (Family tab → Invite (+) → Child Account) and assign events/shifts to it so your family can see them.

Review

My husband and I needed a calendar app we could view together and this has been more than perfect!!

Response from developer

Hi Sarah Belle, thank you so much for your review, we’re thrilled Cubbily has been the perfect shared calendar for you and your husband!

Great for family sharing!!

We finally found an easy free calendar to use for a family of 4 (two kids in high school). Makes our life so much easier. Great job!

Response from developer

Hi lisdfe, thank you so much for the kind review, we’re thrilled Cubbily is making scheduling easier for your family of four, especially with busy high school calendars!

Game Changer

This app is such a lifesaver for sharing busy schedules! No more text threads and “I didn’t see that”. Everything is right on the schedule for the family to see

Response from developer

Hi Kels3542, Thanks so much for the 5-star review, we’re thrilled Cubbily is helping your family stay on the same page and skip the endless text threads!

Kids

This is a good app for doctors appointments and other things to get your loved ones and give family updates

Response from developer

Hi moongirl1234, thank you so much for the 5-star review! We’re really happy Cubbily helps you keep doctor appointments organized and stay connected with your loved ones. 💛

Life changing

Really helps get organized. We love the questions of the day and they get the whole family involved. It’s the highlight of my day to read everyone’s answers. The design is clean, bright and the ability to customize the colors make it visually pleasing - which helps with my adhd.
I haven’t had success with other app based calendars but Cubbily makes it easy to enter new events & it saves old ones so when a new one repeats it pre-populates which makes life so easy.
Don’t use the lists feature much, but the reminders, the widget… everything is just easy and pretty. aesthetically pleasing to keep my motivation going.

Hi Grayseeuh, thank you so much for your review! We’re glad to hear Cubbily has made organizing easier and that you enjoy the Family Question with your family. Knowing it’s become a highlight for you really means a lot to us. We’ll keep striving to make Cubbily even better!

Compatible with ipad, but the screen is tiny.

I had the app on my phone and I recently got a iPad, I hoped to use this app on my iPad instead of my phone so I have a bigger and clear view of mine and my friends schedules. But it shows up like a iPhone, the screen appearance is tiny and I can’t make it any bigger. Would be so great if there was a version on here completely compatible with iPad

Response from developer

Hi broooookkkkiieeeee, thank you for your feedback, and I’m really glad you’ve been using Cubbily on both your phone and iPad. At the moment, our app runs in iPhone compatibility mode on iPad, which makes the screen look small. We haven’t fully adapted the interface for iPad yet. An iPad-optimized version is already on our roadmap, because we agree that a larger, clearer calendar view would make a big difference for families. We don’t have a release date to share yet, but your feedback helps us prioritize this work. Thank you again for pointing it out, and we hope you’ll enjoy Cubbily even more once the iPad version is ready.

ZERO STARS - Total RIP OFF !!

Do NOT spend your money on this app. There are WAY better calendar sharing apps out there.
I did the 7-day free trial, along with various others, to see which could do what I needed. I wanted to see 5 x different calendars in a ‘landscape’ view with overlapping activities in hourly columns. Cubbily couldn’t do it. So I faffed around trying to see if it could offer an alternative, it couldn’t. The app design is far to cumbersome and has zero efficiency, let alone organisation appeal.
The WORST part was when I forgot to cancel the trial period, on day 7, without any notification or warning, they charged me £49.99!!
Exactly two-minutes after the transaction was charged to my card I sent a message via Apple App Store to request a refund. Two days later I got a reply that they declined my request to a refund because they said I had used the app. I complained again, telling them that I hadn’t, but more importantly, that the app could NOT do what I wanted it to do! I cannot use it, won’t use it, and will never use it!! So why should I pay £50 for nothing! I DO NOT WANT ACCESS TI THE APP. Plus they can check that I did not use it after about day 3 of the trial period.
The refused and refused and refused.
Shocking behaviour from a trading standards point of view, and from a customer relations perspective.
I will shout from rooftops to make people aware of the unethical business practices of this company.
Save yourself a ton of money, and stay away from CUBBILY.

Great app, only two downsides

This is a great app for organising my family’s week. The only two downside’s I see is I’m unable to change the public holidays to represent Australia and not being able to add in activities to repeat everyday,week,month,etc. Other then that it seems quite handy and seems like it will be helpful in organising all our lives a little more.

Response from developer

Hi Lawrence, thank you so much for your kind words! We’re really glad to hear Cubbily is helping your family stay organized. We don’t yet support Australian public holidays, but we’re actively working on a global version with localized holidays, and Australia will definitely be included soon. As for repeat events, the feature is already available: when you tap on "+" to add an event, you’ll find a “Repeats” option that lets you set daily, weekly, monthly, or custom recurrences. If you get a chance, please check that out and let us know if it fits your needs. Thanks again for your feedback, it really helps us improve!

Have to pay which is dumb

Once again. The number one feature I’d like to use on an app like this (work shift feature) I have to pay for!!! Jesus why is it so hard to find a good calendar app that’s FREE?! Money money money. All anyone ever wants. Christ on a stick man.

Great for family

The app is great as everyone can have their own picture and colour to help sort out members. A monthly view that doesn’t cost $80 subscription for the year would be good option

Response from developer

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We're really glad you're enjoying the personalized features. We hear you on the pricing for monthly view — it's valuable feedback and we'll definitely take it into consideration as we plan future updates.
