iPhone App only
App isn’t compatible with Mac books & the web app is essentially obsolete - I really wish I could access with my laptop to add things rather than only on the phone or be at home.
Horrible app
I can’t believe that your Mobile app is so hard to use and so outdated. We are living in an AI era. Unjustifiable . Your AI customer support is slow. It’s hard to add widgets. Functionality is limited
Absolutely life changing!
Hey friends! If you are on the fence, just buy it, you will NOT be disappointed!
When I was choosing a digital calendar, I was cross-shopping the Skylight Calendar and the Hearth. While Skylight is nice, the Hearth just fit my family’s needs so much better. I knew I didn't want a tacky dry erase board or a basic chore chart stuck to my wall, and Hearth delivered the sleek, elevated look and functionality I wanted.
I honestly cannot brag enough on the Hearth team! I have ADHD, and this board is literally MY PERSONAL ASSISTANT. If you know, you know! There are so many features I am obsessed with:
Hearth Helper: An absolute lifesaver for effortlessly loading party invites, school lunch menus, school events, and family schedule items.
The New Countdown Feature: Yay!! I’m so excited about this addition!
Meal Planning & Recipe Storage: Keeps our weekly dinner plans organized and in one spot. (I don’t use it as much as I want to, but I’m working on it!)
Chore Tracking & Rewards: Keeps the kiddo motivated and accountable. (I have a strong willed child, so the rewards part is her favorite!)
Family Rhythm Summary: It basically grades our household dynamics, and I am here for it! ❤️
I also love the transparent feature update notifications! I know rolling out new tech takes time, testing, and patience, but every update makes this product even better. They were named one of TIME’s Best Inventions for a reason! 👏🏽
One suggestion for the team...Advertise more and keep collaborating with family-friendly brands! More people need to know about this product.
Thank you, Hearth team! You’ve made our home run so much smoother and my brain less chaotic! 💕

Subscription cost
For the price of the Hearth calendar, the monthly subscription shouldn’t be $10. It shouldn’t cost anything. I get all these compliments when guests come into my home because it does absolutely look amazing and people are convinced that we have are ducks in a row. $10 a month is a little steep. I could download any chores app for free or for around $2 a month. I’m sick of companies nickel and diming the consumers.

It’s a 3
It’s a three. Wish I could rate it better but can’t get it to work with other colander’s apps. And have had it a few years and never got any better. And the screen is real average. It’s a 3 star with a 5 star price tag.
Great Product, Great Support, and Seem to Implement Feedback
We got our Hearth about a month ago and absolutely love it. It’s transformed how my kids do chores, and helps me to be able to only “nag” them about one thing…”did you look at the Hearth?”
I’ve been able to allow my ADHD brain to let go of some of the things floating around in there.
When we first got the Hearth, I was disappointed it didn’t have reminders on the screen for to-do’s. I wrote in and inquired about it, and the feature was implemented within a week.
I’m sure this isn’t how all things go, as it sounded like they were already working on adding this particular feature, but it was nice to have my feedback acknowledged, and to see an improvement made so quickly.

>:( 👎🏽
It doesn’t even let me sign in!
Scam
It seems odd that you pay a lot for the calendar that then wants you to subscribe to use its features. Seems like the price point of the calendar should come down significantly if they want to charge you monthly/annually just to use it. We have used basic features on ours because I refuse to get into another scam.

Helpful family calendar
This app is overall helpful in keeping our family organized and we like our huge hearth calendar screen it pairs with. However it is not the greatest. App. It is a little clunky and not the easiest to use. I also wish it offered widgets to display the calendar or to do list on the iPhone or iPad.
Needs more functionality
The app works, but lacks a lot of the functionality you see in other calendar apps. For example, being able to set multiple alerts for the same event. The “Add Location” option is also missing a lot of locations. I can add a specific address by typing it out manually, but searching for a business directly by name is surprisingly lacking.
What would make this app most useful for me is the addition of a widget. I mostly use widgets on my phone for my most commonly used apps. I can see the calendar information in the Apple calendar app, but there is no easy way to open up an event directly to edit it in the Hearth app.

App leaves desires
Features like widgets, smart voice event creation, Alex skill enablement and google home compatibility are some features I would love to see incorporated in such a paid application. Hearth Companion App needs a search function for added events, tasks and appointments to be able to search through current and future months.

Needs a few more features
I absolutely love my Hearth Display! A few things I would love to see added as feature: the ability to fill the date with desired color, the ability to add birthdays, holidays, and anniversaries for friends/family, and a default setting for the view (ex. calendar, day, week, agenda). I still love my calendar, but I would love it even more with these added features.

Needs a Widget!
I do love our Hearth. Something that can improve the app—please provide a widget that gives you a weekly view. That would be SO helpful instead of having to open up the app every time. With a widget my week can just sit out, for me to see every time I open my phone.
I can’t delete a profile?
Deleting a profile should be so easy but the fact I need to contact support to delete a profile is burdensome.
Vast Unmet Potential!!
I am very underwhelmed by my Hearth Display. It lacks creativity and obvious features any tech product in 2025 should have.
1. It does not make sounds of any kind. No alarms. No reminders. It can’t set times and you can’t talk to it like other “ai helpers.” Very disappointing. The Hearth cannot be a central part of our lifestyle if we must continue using our other tech for these most basic functions.
2. There are almost no display customization options. No dark mode. No way to view widgets of its functions on a Home Screen. The display doesn’t even “know” that it shouldn’t show all the empty space from midnight to 8 am if it’s EMPTY. It shouldn’t make me scroll down to awake hours to see if anything is on the calendar.
3. No add on widgets which could be fun - like a vocab word of the day or an AI powered “daily briefing” which could be verbally given aloud in addition to visually. Even the weather forecast is the most basic unhelpful information ever. You can’t actually use it to check the weather as there is no hourly forecast, humidity, uv index, etc.
4. There is no “toddler mode”
5. No user identification to stop siblings from messing with each other. There is a camera. Let’s get faceID rolled out.
6. While we’re on the camera - let’s get video calling set up!
6. Part of the appeal of a wall display is that it is NOT a smartphone. Unfortunately you will still need to use your smartphone for everything that is actually useful, because those features are not available on the display.

A Game-Changer for Family Organization
Hearth has made coordinating our family’s moving pieces so much easier. I love the clean layout, color-coding, and quick reminders—everyone knows where they need to be and when. Adding events is simple, and the shared view keeps us aligned without a dozen texts. It’s genuinely reduced our stress and helped us protect time for what matters.

Overly expensive
We have owned the hearth for a year now, and truly have enjoyed it. Our subscription is up in September so we decided to cancel it since it’s 84$ a year. In this economy we just don’t have that. Because of canceling we cannot do any of the basic stuff. Like the to dos.
For the price of it and the lack of “perks” I can honestly say I regret buying this. Such a waste of money and scam.

Customizable Homescreen Widget Please!
Would love a widget option for a quick overview of the day without needing to open the app!
My kids love it!
My kids love this display and it helps motivate them to do tasks and gives them a helpful visual of their activities. Some of the interfaces are a little cumbersome still but confident those will be worked out in time.
Love it!
We love the Hearth especially being a busy family. The kids also love the upgrade for their chores and lists.
