### 5/5 — My favourite calendar app by far!

*2023-06-19, version 2.8.2*

I have a lot of appointments in my calendar and like to be able to see them in month view. This has been the best app so far both on iPhone and on iPad to see all my events clearly at a glance and has become indispensable in me not missing appointments 😂

### 4/5 — Happy but…

*2022-08-16*

Happy with it overall. But it would be great if there was a whole month view for the widget.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review.
Since there seemed to be no demand for the one-month display widget, it was not supported. We will consider your request in the future.

### 5/5 — Great

*2020-07-06, version 2.6.1*

Even the trial version, I can customize the most smallest of colour displays, it adds appointments from email messages, it also connects with the iPhone calendar ap... I'm detail oriented, I love it.

### 5/5 — Only Calender I Use

*2019-10-24*

Love it.  Easy to use, to view.  Great!

### 1/5 — No color transfer

*2019-09-21*

Colors that I have set on my calendar NEVER transfer over and edit keeps freezing. And when I try to set colors I have to do one at a time because it won’t allow color to transfer to all events or it says it’s saved to future events but no color shows up!  Temperamental app!! Pls fix

**Developer response:** Thank you for pointing out the bug. Investigate.

### 1/5 — I lost all my appointments.

*2019-09-06*

I lost everything

### 3/5 — So so

*2018-08-20*

I really do like how easy it is & how you can see everything at a glance. However!!! Having it set up Monday thru Sunday is very confusing. All paper calendars & organizer before electronic calendars have always been Sunday to Saturday!! Will be looking for another app. Can't tell how many times I've glanced at the calendar & thought Tuesday was Monday!!

### 3/5 — Delete an event

*2018-08-19*

I love this calendar except you can not totally delete an event and that is needed if that is fixed I will give it a 5 star

### 5/5 — Still a great app!!

*2018-08-02, version 2.4.3*

I have been using this app for more than 6 years now and is still one of my go to app. It’s simple and keeps me organized.  Thanks!

### 4/5 — Good, could be great.

*2018-04-04*

Live the month view. Needs simpler event creation, for instance the cursor should be on the event-name field right away.
