### 3/5 — No longer supported

*2025-01-04, version 2020.3*

No longer supported with current iOS. Was great while it lasted!

### 4/5 — Update Needed…

*2023-06-05, version 2020.3*

It’s been 2 years since last update…needs a booster update…it does get glitchy at times.

### 2/5 — Widget Doesn’t Update Automatically

*2022-12-18, version 2020.3*

Nice appearance, but widget doesn’t update automatically.

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2022-04-24, version 2020.3*

Looks very nice and it’s what I’ve been searching in others.
I really wish there was an option to hide  weekends and hold the widget on Monday-to-Friday view, always starting on Monday.

### 4/5 — Disappointed this stopped working briefly

*2021-12-30, version 2020.3*

This has been a very good app, used daily for a couple of years. I paid for the pro licence. So I was disappointed that it stopped working with ios 15.1. The widget seems to be working a bit better with 15.2, but I still can’t get the settings to load at all.

### 3/5 — App crashing

*2021-01-06, version 2020.3*

Super useful—nothing else like it. But app keeps crashing. Please fix!

### 4/5 — Good on my phone

*2020-09-18, version 2020.1*

The widget stopped loading on the iPad so deleted the app there, but after years it still works well on the phone. Five days in the widget makes it too cramped, but the three days display is perfect for my use.

### 3/5 — Love it, when it works

*2019-12-22, version 2019.19*

I really like this app, when I use it in the widget section. However, it’s a crap shoot as to whether it will actually show me my calendar or not. Sometimes it’s there, but most times it’s not. I have to uninstall it, reinstall it, and it will work for a while. Sometimes I don’t do anything and it is there, then unable to load and then it’s back. I wish the programmers would fix this already because it really is a nice app.

Update:  I just updated my iOS to the latest version as of Dec 2019 and it is working again. If it remains stable I will update again and give the 5 stars it deserves.

### 3/5 — What happened?

*2019-12-01, version 2019.18*

Been using this for sometime now. And until recently I have been very happy. For some reason, the widgets only say unable to load. Not sure what is going on? But maybe upgrade to iOS 13.2.3?

### 5/5 — Love app but iOS 13 broke reminders.

*2019-10-30, version 2019.15*

I love the app and use the widget every day. It’s a great way to see multiple days in your calendar and keep on top of your reminders. Great developer and great customer support!

### 2/5 — Only Works Sometimes? UPDATE 2

*2019-10-19, version 2019.14*

I found this app/widget while watching a video about iPad productivity tools and thought it looked great.  After downloading I set up for a three day view, tied it to 4 of my calendars and pinned it to the top of the widget favorites.

I love seeing the next three days in an easy to read yet small widget.  Unfortunately it only shows my appointments some of the time.  I have played with the settings, deleted and re-installed and reassigned the calendars but the appointments disappear intermittently.

Hopefully there is an easy fix to this frustrating problem.  If I find it, I will change my rating to 4 stars.

UPDATE - After updating the app to version 2019.14 I no longer have the issue with appointments disappearing.  I’d like to see some more options for appearance settings in future updates. I have updated from 2 stars to 4.

UPDATE 2 - After Apple pushed iPadOS 13.2 my events appear only some of the time.  I can no longer count on the app to work so I have deleted.  I wish I would have stuck with the free version.

### 3/5 — Good app

*2019-10-05, version 2019.12*

But pro version is too expensive for a student

### 3/5 — Ios 13

*2019-10-04, version 2019.12*

Still having problems loading the widget. Need to issue fix.

### 2/5 — App broken by iOS 13?

*2019-10-01, version 2019.12*

Installed onto both iPhone XR and iPad Pro 12.9”.  iPhone XR works fine; iPad version completely blank.  Deleted, reinstalled twice.  No-go.  Widget is broken.

### 2/5 — Calendar widget not showing info

*2019-09-28, version 2019.11*

I was so excited to get this app after watching a video on the new iPad os update. Sadly, the calendar aspect is not working! It will show up at times and then will be empty. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it. It worked initially and then it happened again. Super frustrated that I bothered paying for the pro version! I hope this is just a glitch and will be fixed soon.

### 1/5 — Broken on iOS 17

*2023-11-15, version 2020.3*

Eventail used to be such a useful widget but it no longer seems to be supported and hasn’t been updated for 2 years. Since updating to iOS 17 my existing eventail widgets are blank and it doesn’t appear in my widget list so I can’t add any new ones.

### 1/5 — DO MOT BUY; Pro Version is a RIPOFF

*2021-08-15, version 2020.3*

Do NOT buy the pro version; it does not add the choices that are advertised. I plan to call Apple and request a refund.

### 1/5 — bad

*2020-10-09, version 2020.1*

i paid 5$ for pro and i can’t even make it a widget. useless.

### 1/5 — No Widget

*2020-09-25, version 2020.1*

App seemed promising, so I thought I’d try the free version. Downloaded it and went through all the settings, added calendars, etc. But I couldn’t find how to “ add widget” like the instructions said and widget never showed up on the home or widget screen. Would appreciate some instruction, the troubleshooting page was no help.

### 1/5 — Missing widget

*2020-09-22, version 2020.1*

Downloaded pro version, widget will not show up to pin on Home Screen. Set up instructions are posted in some type of predator language.

### 1/5 — Would have been a great one

*2018-03-16, version 2.1.5*

But the widget doesn’t load correctly

### 1/5 — Beware of bugs

*2018-02-21, version 2.1.1*

This app does not perform. I am stuck in the configuration mode and unable to properly utilize many functions and go to the main menus.   I upgraded but still no improvement. I reinstalled the software but it is junk.

### 1/5 — Fails to load

*2018-02-18, version 2.1.0*

The widget just says failed to load

### 1/5 — Unable to load

*2018-02-18, version 2.1.0*

Just installed app based on the good reviews previously. But the app cannot even load onto widget page at all.
As it is, of no use to anyone...

### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2018-02-17, version 2.1.0*

Don’t bother. Can’t even get to home screen. Worst app I ever saw. Glad I didn’t pay for it

### 5/5 — Must have calendar widget

*2023-10-19, version 2020.3*

Your whole week of events is just one swipe over to the today home screen, and it’s compact and well featured. The interactive mode allows you to quickly open an event in a favorite calendar app, navigate to a location, and open an event url. Eventail is a great widget companion to other full-featured calendar apps.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2021-12-16, version 2020.3*

Well thought out, has everything I could think of, and amazing for students

### 5/5 — Great calendar widget!

*2021-07-12, version 2020.3*

The legacy calendar widget had everything I wanted in a calendar widget with the weekly events view and long term upcoming events. 

At first the widgets did not appear in the widget list but they appeared after restarting my phone so it might have been an iOS issue.

### 5/5 — Essential app

*2021-01-02, version 2020.3*

This app carried me through work from home and is so well made. Love the iOS 13 widgets. iOS 14 ones need some work, but thats more due to Apple ruining widgets and not on the developer.

### 5/5 — Flexible and very useful

*2020-08-08, version 2020.1*

I think this will be the first widget I actually use daily.

### 5/5 — A must-have utility

*2019-12-05, version 2019.18*

I mostly use eventail for its calendar functionally, and it has single-handedly saved me from being late more times than I can count. The ability to see your schedule for the day at a glance and with so little effort is incredibly convenient and makes it easy to keep track of when my next meetings are at work. The app is also highly customizable, so I only see calendar events I actually care about. 

I highly recommend this app to anyone that uses a calendar.

As a side note, the developer is also very active and addresses bugs pretty quickly. When iOS 13 came out, something about the OS broke widgets, and there were half a dozen updates that came out to address the issue (to the best of the developer’s ability) until it was finally fixed, which is great!

### 5/5 — Отличное преложение!

*2019-11-29, version 2019.18*

Самый крутой виджет для стандартного календаря.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2019-11-24, version 2019.18*

This is the app you must have!

### 5/5 — The calendar widget I was looking for

*2019-11-14, version 2019.17*

Edit 2019-11-14: 
I see a number of reviews indicating that the widget does not work. That *was* the case, but the developer was able to get that fixed in one of the recent releases. Now the widget has been rock solid. This widget has been something I depend on throughout the day to quickly and easily see what's coming up in my day and week. The Pro features have been absolutely worth it for the added functionality. I've got apps on my phone that I rarely interact with. This app/widget is the opposite. Not a day goes by that I don't make use of it. 

Original:
I wanted something where I could easily see my week. This widget is exactly what I was looking for. Nicely customizable and compact. Provides a ton of information. Developer has been awesome and worked hard to fix issue with disappearing events. I can now give it 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Must have calendar widget

*2019-11-08, version 2019.16*

Your whole week of events is just one swipe over to the widget screen, and it’s compact and well featured. The interactive mode allows you to quickly open an event in a specified calendar app, navigate to a location, and open an event url. Eventail is a great widget companion to your favorite calendar apps.
