### 5/5 — Очень удобно

*2026-08-20*

Очень удобное приложение, пользуюсь уже год) Я ни сторонник писать отзывы, но это приложение всегда выручает. Почитала отзывы, что у большинства слетают и аннулируются заметки, у меня пока такого ни разу не было..

**Developer response:** Спасибо, что пользуетесь minical уже год и нашли время оставить отзыв. Нам очень приятно, что приложение выручает вас в повседневных делах. Мы стараемся делать простой и удобный календарь и будем продолжать улучшать minical.

### 5/5 — Best layout

*2026-08-19, version 5.11.18*

So many calendar apps do not allow you to see all the text gene you tap it. This has the most perfect beautiful layout. HIGHLY recommend for people who hate the way Apple calendar and Google Calendar look. Syncs easily to my existing data

### 3/5 — Dev question

*2026-08-17, version 5.11.18*

I can’t contact you guys via social media as your website requests so I hope this is okay instead. Is there a way to dim past days in the calendar, including past holidays?  I can see that future and past months are dimmed on current month display, but I’d like for every day this month before today to also be dimmed. It feels more glance-friendly to see how much more time there is left in the month, and what day it is today, if this was an option. Thank you! Love the app otherwise!

### 5/5 — Great calendar

*2026-08-16*

As someone with adhd, it’s really hard for me to remember what all I’m doing and have scheduled, that’s why I love this calendar! It’s super easy to add stuff and I love that if the app notices you are putting the same thing on another day it will copy it over. I also enjoy the length amount of reminders you can put on it, I just wish it was more like the reminder app where it can be an alarm too. Don’t quote me on that, though I might be wrong. I enjoy that you can make the activity different colors and I love that I can put it as a widget on my home screen. Would highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to share so much detail. We're glad the copy suggestion, the color options and the home screen widget are working well for you. Thank you also for your suggestion about alarm-style reminders. We'll keep it in mind as valuable feedback. Thank you for recommending minical.

### 5/5 — нужна возможность добавлять фото

*2026-08-11*

отличное приложение, только не хватает возможности добавлять помимо ссылок и описания к событиям еще и фото!

**Developer response:** Спасибо за тёплый отзыв о minical. Возможность добавлять к событиям не только ссылки и описание, но и фотографии — принимаем как ценное пожелание и учтём при дальнейших улучшениях приложения. Благодарим вас за то, что поделились своей идеей.

### 1/5 — Widget

*2026-08-08, version 5.11.18*

Mainly used to use this app for the widget on the lock screen and even tho I customize my lock screen and it shows the widget there when I’m customizing, when i actually go to my lock screen it’s not there no more, it used to work fine but not anymore

### 1/5 — Good app

*2026-08-08, version 5.11.18*

Keeps bugging me to review boo

### 5/5 — The best calendar app i’ve ever used

*2026-08-01*

I’ve been using this app for years now and can’t find anything else like it. It’s nice on the eyes and gives me every option i need in a calendar app. i love how it’s customizable and you can personalize it so that it’s easy to understand. I think i’m going to use this app for the rest of my life to be completely honest. The $12 or however much i paid one time when i first got the app to unlock all the features is so worth it, and NO YEARLY SUBSCRIPTION. Thank you developers for giving us something amazing.

**Developer response:** Thank you for using minical for years and for such a warm review! We're delighted that the customizable design fits your needs and that the one-time purchase felt worth it. We'll keep improving so you can enjoy minical for many years to come.

### 5/5 — Почему пропали виджеты?

*2026-07-28*

Я покупала полный доступ pro и постоянно для работы пользуюсь этим приложением, но недавно пропали виджеты, что делать??? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

**Developer response:** Спасибо, что приобрели minical pro и постоянно пользуетесь приложением в работе. Сожалеем, что недавно виджеты перестали отображаться. Не только в minical, но и в других приложениях такое встречается как общая особенность iPhone; перезапуск iPhone и повторное добавление виджета часто решают проблему. Подробнее на странице https://minical.app/ru/faq/widget-empty . Если это не поможет, пожалуйста, напишите нам через форму обращения на странице помощи.

### 4/5 — Suggestions

*2026-07-26, version 5.11.17*

Love the app, but I there’s a few features that you all could add! As someone who bought premium
1. Highlight dates
- I’d like to be able to color/highlight the entire square for very important dates, like how it looks when you select it, but permanent 
2. Custom colors
3. Typing when inputting times
- it gets tedious to have to scroll to the time you want

That’s all for now!
