### 4/5 — Good but slow

*2026-05-03, version 1.6.13*

Pretty good just slow, and it has shut down on me multiple times.

### 3/5 — Crashes

*2026-04-30, version 1.6.13*

Love the concept. However it crashes frequently when trying to input schedules

### 3/5 — I need larger & darker font

*2026-03-19, version 1.6.13*

I cannot see when I make lists as the font is too small & too light. We love the shared app but doesn’t work if we cannot see it! I looked in settings to adjust but didn’t see anything. 

Thank you!

### 3/5 — Was good at first

*2025-07-03, version 1.6.11*

Loved this app at first, used it for months, but now it is no longer syncing to my family. I’ve tried to remove and reinstall on all devices but it is not working.

### 4/5 — Love- only 1 issue

*2025-06-22, version 1.6.11*

I LOVE this app. I suggest it to everyone that needs to try and organize their life. My only complaint is that twice in the last year I’ve had to delete the app and reinstall after realizing that my stuff wasn’t on my families phone. I have the family stuff most updated so I hate to lose it. I did reach out to customer service to see if they could help me figure out what to do but I did not get a response. Other than that, this app is the best!

### 4/5 — Great!

*2025-06-15, version 1.6.11*

This app is super easy to manage and helps keep my family organized. I was looking for an organizing and planning app for a long time but you pay for all of them. After scrolling for ten minutes in the App Store I found the first free app which was this one. I am the 12 year old daughter but I am the one doing everything. I got my family on this app and it really keeps my dad, stepmom and brother more organized. My parents are divorced so I put the days that we go back and forth and all that stuff. This is also useful for if I have a school event because I put it on there and my dad makes it on time. This is an AWSOME app and I would definitely recommend it.

### 3/5 — Great app but updates don’t sync

*2025-05-01, version 1.6.11*

App is great, especially that you can add a number of users, my only issue is that if someone updates the schedule it doesn’t update for the other users, only the person who made the update so can’t be relied upon

### 4/5 — Pretty Good!

*2025-03-29, version 1.6.11*

My teenager kept begging for me to stop using my planner calendar (printed book) and move to a digital calendar so we could all access it at any time. I still like my hard copy planner and I just don’t  like how Google calendar works and can’t get behind it for anything other than work appointments. So she found this app for us. I like it! It’s very ascetically pleasing! It’s great how we can “assign” a family member (or more than one) to the event. I do wish there was a “private” option so that all my stuff that the family doesn’t care about doesn’t have to be shown on their calendars. Same with the checklists and To Do Lists… I would like an option to have a “private” list that is not shared. I just don’t like clogging up everyone else’s calendars with my individual list. Otherwise, everything works great. We have no issues with anything. Love the simplicity and the sharing! I don’t think I’ll ditch my paper calendar yet, but it is very helpful for my teen to be able to pull everything up and know when her doctor appointments are in a few minutes. Keep it up!

### 4/5 — I wish

*2025-01-28, version 1.6.11*

I really like the app it makes it easy to keep everyone’s schedule organized and everyone informed. I do wish there was an option to not that certain colors are for certain events. Such as purple is for all family members, orange is for appt. Blue is for dentist. Things along that nature where you don’t have to try and remember it right off the top of your head.

### 2/5 — Great but won’t work

*2024-10-22, version 1.6.11*

Great app but I can’t get an email verification send to my email so can’t sync all the family on it. 
Have tried about 20 times and still won’t send. 
Had great potential but I’ve given up now

### 4/5 — Works well

*2024-10-22, version 1.6.11*

I love the app! Just wish it had a widget on the Home Screen.

### 4/5 — Personalization

*2024-07-23, version 1.6.10*

Would like to be able to set a default landing page based on user preferences. 

Example: when I load the app, I would like to have the calendar set to display per my settings. 

Overall, this has been a better coparenting app for my daughter than another app we previously used.

### 3/5 — Glitching

*2024-07-01, version 1.6.10*

I love this app & have used it for a while but it’s glitching and not saving things correctly. It’s adding an extra day on to everything I do. I have even gone back in and changed it (my work schedule) so that it was correct & then next time I went in…it had gone back to adding extra days. So I’m having to recheck everything to make sure so I don’t miss work. I haven’t really used it since it’s been doing that because it’s just not reliable anymore. I might have to download the app I had before this one.

### 4/5 — Love the app

*2024-06-26, version 1.6.10*

I been using this for years, love the concept, but there hasn’t been much updated in years. Before I go looking for another app I would like to know if there will ever be widgets or interactive home screens. It would be of much help without having to open the app

### 1/5 — Instant Delete

*2025-06-25, version 1.6.11*

I might have taken the time to see what the calendar was like if it didn't insist on knowing my birthday. 🤬

### 1/5 — 3/14/25

*2025-03-16, version 1.6.11*

YOU SCRAMBLED ALL MY DATA!!!

### 1/5 — Needs an update

*2025-01-15, version 1.6.11*

App won’t open and keeps crashing.

### 1/5 — Can’t merge calendars

*2024-12-09, version 1.6.11*

For some reason, I am unable to merge calendars. It says we are synced, the whole point of this app was so we could be on the same page and schedule things around my  baby so I have a support system.

### 1/5 — NO SUPPORT

*2024-09-25, version 1.6.11*

I have been using this app for years & have A LOT of information in it. It suddenly stopped working a few days ago.  I have contacted support 6 times over the past few days and have not had a single reply. Would not recommend due to the lack of support - very disappointed!!

### 1/5 — No widget

*2024-09-10, version 1.6.11*

My BIGGEST complaint is no widget to view the actual lists for the day. I have to rely on synced calendars in other apps to see it on my Home Screen in a widget. My wife doing her own business, my work, kids practices, school, etc, if I want to see it I have to go into the App. A simple widget like google calendar that you could see on the home screen and I’d delete every other calendar. As it is, I would say it’s decent because what good is a digital calendar that have to open the app to see? Features even in the free app are great; however, see above.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2024-08-07, version 1.6.10*

I have set up our calendar but can’t add family members to it! I have contacted the App but have received no reply. 
I like the way the daily entries are displayed and I can use the App fine myself but really need a solution so all the family can view and add to the calendar.

### 1/5 — Stealing from me

*2024-06-30, version 1.6.10*

bought this app for my family no longer use it and the keep charging my card monthly for a subscription that i can not cancel because it doesn't exist anymore.  It's coming from out side of  the apple ecosystem because when you call apple support they can't even trace where its coming from.

DO NOIT USE THIS APP IT IS A LONG CON TO STEAL FROM YOU.

### 1/5 — App crashing when syncing

*2024-06-21, version 1.6.10*

Was very excited for this app as I thought it would tick all boxes. I set up my family account, verified email and filled in EVERYTHING to get started. Went to sync for my husband to join and it keeps crashing saying I do not have an email set up. I went through the whole process. Tried to log back in and everything is gone and it will not sync again.

### 1/5 — App keeps quitting

*2024-04-30, version 1.6.10*

I just started using the app and when I try to set up my custom theme, choose ten photos and click the check box, it quits the whole app and doesn’t save my choices. Not going to use

### 5/5 — Family organizer

*2025-11-22, version 1.6.11*

Best calendar app. Ever

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2025-08-11, version 1.6.11*

This app is absolutely perfect I feel like it’s been a serious game changer with coordinating my husband’s and I’s schedule. It has so many cute features that are missing on so many of these other calendar apps, I highly recommend! Huge bonus that I get to customize it with my own pictures 😁.

### 5/5 — Good tool for monthly bills

*2025-04-30, version 1.6.11*

My kids are grown so I don’t have as many people and activities to keep track of.  I find this Family Organizer app great for keeping my bills and due dates straight.  I use pink if they’re on auto pay, blue if I have to pay it and then turn them black once they clear the bank.  I mark birthdays and other reminders are in different colors. I’ve really grown to rely on it as a daily tool.  I’ve never been so organized! My only wish is there would be more colors added. The different shades of pink and blue are too hard to distinguish between. Red, yellow, teal, adding more color options would make it perfect!

### 5/5 — Great app!!!

*2025-03-15, version 1.6.11*

I absolutely love this family organizer. The interface is simple to use which I appreciate. You can store recipes, track your spending, color code things, I love the notes section and the to-do lists. I’m a very organized person and I need things to be in one place. So having my to do lists, grocery lists, budget and calendar all in one app is awesome!

### 5/5 — Great for Family

*2025-02-07, version 1.6.11*

I enjoy that I can assign specific events with certain members of the family and then color code them as well. 
It is easy for the kids to open the app on their phone and quickly know if they are schedule for a practice/event for the day or week ahead.
The app frequently has glitches (primarily when I’m customizing the calendar background etc.) but overall I enjoy this app!
Easy to use for all members of our family.

### 5/5 — Love this

*2024-11-08, version 1.6.11*

Perfect for all my family needs and I love that I can put my own backgrounds

### 5/5 — Great app for busy families

*2024-10-03, version 1.6.11*

A little gem in the pocket that allows sync with the rest of the family . This app is everything and simple to use .

### 5/5 — Won’t allow invites

*2024-08-09, version 1.6.10*

App won’t allow me to invite others in the family. Says I don’t have email address registered even tho I do and I’m signed in.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal family organizer app

*2024-05-12, version 1.6.10*

TLDR: Great app, no need to pay to get the features you’ll love, give it a try if you’re interested!

(Background)
My wife and I had been trying to find a smooth way to sync and organize a calendar for our family, we tried a shared Google calendar, which worked in a basic sense but wasn’t great when it came to adding monthly expenses, etc. Then we used an app called Cozi, which was a huge step up from the shared Google calendar in terms of features but lacked an aesthetic appeal. Then one day I stumbled upon this app, and it had much of the functionality of Cozi but with beautiful aesthetics! We switched everything over into this new app and I haven’t looked back! I can’t say it will work perfectly for everyone, but it was a great decision for me and my wife, and I also recently set my parents up on it so that they can keep each other in the loop regarding their travel schedules and other plans.

(Pros)
- Ability to add expenses/credits to calendar days, making it easy to keep track of income and bills/expenses. There’s an option to set them as recurring so that you don’t have to enter those items manually each time
- Wallet tab that calculates your monthly profit by subtracting total expenses from total credits/income. It gives a snapshot of how much you’re in the red or the black each month based on the expenses you’ve inputted.
- Family/Sync tab that lets you sync the account across multiple devices so that each family member can update the calendar, with changes being shown in real time. **Just make sure the first person creates the family account and the subsequent users log in to that existing account using the same email and shared password. If they put in  different email, the app won’t recognize the email address and you’ll have issues syncing.
-And much more! I didn’t want to take the time to list everything here so please download the app and try it yourself😂

(Cons)
- There are occasional visual formatting errors in the daily calendar view. You may be able to fix them by closing the app and then opening again fresh. 
- Your app may have a crash issue. If it does, you can delete and reinstall the app on your phone and it should work fine. That is what happened to my dad.
- Aside from that, each person may have different “Oh, I wish the app had this…” moments. I encourage you to write a review letting the developers know to see if that feature can be added in a future update! 

(Conclusion)
Reading over what I wrote, this review sounds very positive, and it should be! This app has really helped me and my family. If you give it a try and don’t like it, there may be things that it’s lacking that you need, so there may be a better app out there for you. But I suggest giving it a try and seeing if it’s something you’ll like and benefit from using. If it is, great! If not, I hope you find the app you’re looking for and can prosper with it😊

### 5/5 — 10/10 just wish it had personal monthly view

*2023-07-03, version 1.6.8*

The support team informed me to set up an email with the account to invite people or export the data from the calendar - you need to go to your phone settings -> mail -> and add your personal email there so the app can use it that way. NOW that that’s been figured out - this app is 10/10! Great layout, visually appealing and LOVE that I can select to just view my own events if I want to. I only wish I could view my own events on demand in the monthly view as well (it only lets you in the daily view). Otherwise very very happy with it:)
