### 4/5 — Overall a good app

*2026-09-05, version 4.3.2*

This app is great if u don’t have one of those little desk calendar things and it save paper. The only iffy thing about this is that have of the things i tape to figure out what they are u have to pay for it. Overall, the app is a good app i think u should get it 😁

### 4/5 — Pretty good app👍

*2026-06-10, version 4.2.8*

When you look up a holiday, it won’t tell you when that holiday is, but other than that this app is so fun and helpful! I use this every day.

### 2/5 — Could’ve Done Better

*2026-05-24, version 4.2.8*

I paid $4.99 for this app. I compared it to a free version on a different app. The free version is so much better. It has detailed descriptions and beautiful pictures to go with them. I’ve made a huge mistake. Lol

### 4/5 — Tint support

*2026-04-30, version 4.2.7*

I really like this app. I’d like to use it on my Home Screen as a widget so I can see the days at a glance, but it just renders blank. If that could be fixed, 5 stars for sure 🙏

### 3/5 — Mid

*2026-03-25, version 4.2.6*

You cant do much unless you pay

### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-01-06, version 4.2.3*

It’s okay but I can’t learn abt any of the holidays except just one on that day, just not for me.

### 2/5 — Not enough

*2025-11-20, version 4.2.2*

This app leaves too much off the list.  For example, Nov. 21 does not have things most people would find interesting, like National Cranberry Day, National Gingerbread Day, National Stuffing Day, Pumpkin Pie Day, etc. There have been many days I have heard of daily observances from other sources, and these were not listed in the app.

### 3/5 — Holidaying

*2025-10-10, version 4.2*

I love how it helps me celebrate on the daily and it’s pretty accurate. Things to improve are sharing the previewed colored blurb- when I share with friends it’s the basic app that comes up instead of what’s promised in the preview

### 4/5 — Great app

*2025-10-04, version 4.2*

Calendar has all nation holidays you can think of but no Filipino Independence Day😭 Devs pls add, other than that great holiday calendar

### 4/5 — Pay?

*2025-09-26, version 4.2*

I like this app but I think it is kinda ridiculous to have to see the origin of the holiday, but over all pretty good and yes I know it is not a lot of money but still

### 2/5 — Cash grab and lack of diversity

*2025-09-23, version 4.2*

This app is described as a calendar that shows Holidays not on the regular apple calendar. But it just shows a bunch a national holidays and American holidays. Where are the other cultures? No Diwali no Day of the dead just the calendar app. And you have to pay to use most of the app. You can barely use the app without paying most of the options are locked.

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-07-17, version 4.1.1*

Fun holidays if you want random knowledge this is the way to go

### 5/5 — A DAILY DELIGHT

*2025-06-18, version 4.1.1*

This app is well designed. It beautifully integrates with your calendar, and it makes every day a day for celebration with you, your friends, and your family. Highly recommended! Worth every penny.

### 1/5 — Pay upfront

*2026-08-05, version 4.3.1*

Have to pay prior to using any portion of the product to determine whether it meets your requirements/standards.  
No thanks.

### 1/5 — Not free no more!!!

*2026-06-07, version 4.2.8*

This app used to be free to look at each and EVERY holiday listed but now you only get one unlocked holiday to click into and the rest are now behind a paywall!!! Wtf!!!

### 1/5 — Missing Important Days

*2026-06-01, version 4.2.8*

June is National Cancer Survivor Month which isn’t listed 😞

### 1/5 — So interesting & fun to checkout

*2026-05-19, version 4.2.8*

This app I consistently check almost every day! Fun to celebrate new “holidays” I never knew existed!

### 1/5 — New Update Ruins it

*2026-05-03, version 4.2.7*

This app was something quirky that I enjoyed seeing in the morning for a while. Recently, they’ve updated it to where they’re locking most of the events of the day behind a paywall, and I have also lost my notifications on the lock screen/Home Screen for the pop up. I am not going to check the app every day to see what event is going on, it is too bad they ruined a good thing they had going.

### 1/5 — Meh

*2026-01-23, version 4.2.5*

Omits holidays included on other similar lists. Includes holidays with no citations/refs for more info. Sad I paid the $5.

### 1/5 — A Republic App.

*2025-11-09, version 4.2.2*

Unlock for more money. Perform your job for more money. More money. More money. Mo, mo, mo, more money. Useless.

### 1/5 — Good app but forced me to rate

*2025-01-25, version 4.0.25*

Within seconds of purchasing this app you’re forced to give a review with incessant pop ups. Not sure why they want to annoy people who just gave them money but I guess it works for them.

### 1/5 — Ruined

*2024-10-13, version 4.0.20*

This was once a great little app but they changed it where there is a charge for everything useful.

### 1/5 — Make it free

*2024-09-15, version 4.0.19*

Please make it free. This app seemed good when I downloaded it but I have to pay to unlock it. Maybe add a system where you have to pay for certain options like “How You Can Celebrate” which lists things you can do on the day to celebrate. Another thing you can add is access to user created content which allows you to view custom holidays created by app users who paid. You shouldn’t make users pay just to access what the day is, maybe make them pay for special features like the ones I listed above if you need them to pay but overall PLEASE MAKE IT FREE.

*2026-08-10, version 4.3.2*

This app has a lot of fun information and it’s a great conversation starter. In a recent review, I commented about a problem I had with my subscription. Two days later I got a helpful email from a developer and now it works as I would hope. Thanks for the tip!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-07-05, version 4.2.8*

Love the app. Wish it was possible, when sharing, to either have more color options or customize the color.

It’s very informative. Some of these things I had no idea they existed.

### 5/5 — Fun app!!

You get a lot of trivial info and also some great historical dates.

Missing the US Navy 250th...other than that, it is awesome!

### 5/5 — Loving this😃

*2025-09-26, version 4.2*
