But frustrating. *2026-04-28, version 2.6.21* I purchased through your Etsy site, the icons. I have an iPhone. Is it even possible to use them with my iPhone? And cannot use any of it with Goodnotes or Notability, without paying a subscription. ### 4/5 — Helpful app *2026-01-26, version 2.6.21* Love this app! The only critique i have is i wish there was a search feature to find certain task or events from past months or years. Also, a quarterly frequency ### 4/5 — Helpful app *2026-01-15, version 2.6.21* Love this app! The only critique i have is i wish there was a search feature to find certain task or events from past months or years ### 3/5 — Very simple & pretty bit glitches quite often *2025-12-28, version 2.6.21* I’ve trying to keep some insights in the notes option and 50 percent of the time it doesn’t save the note and closes the app. Bit frustrating ### 3/5 — UPDATE *2025-12-23, version 2.6.21* Needs new features, updates it’s aesthetic but old no widget feature for live updates for lock screen bit of a boring app now ### 3/5 — Really love this app. But…. *2025-12-06, version 2.6.21* I love this app. I just wish it would sync across apple devices ### 4/5 — Love it! *2025-11-10, version 2.6.21* Super cute and love the one time payment option. Only thing that could make it better is sync with reminders app. 🩷 ### 4/5 — Español *2025-10-04, version 2.6.17* Me gusta la app pero tienen que ponerla en español ### 3/5 — Like a lot, but major 1 drawback *2025-10-03, version 2.6.17* I really love the aesthetic and simplicity of this user-friendly planner/calendar. I especially like putting my “to-dos” on my calendar dates to keep everything is one place. The one drawback I have been wanting to use since the day I got this app is that there is no “search” option. Can we please add a way for users to search keywords to lookup previous appointments or other calendar entries? Also, it would be so helpful to sync this with my family Skylight digital calendar. Those two additions would move my rating to 5-stars! ### 3/5 — Line art not working *2025-09-30, version 2.6.17* I spent the original $9, then an extra dollar and can’t get the line art to work as a widget, it is just blank. ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-07-27, version 2.6.17* I love this app, I use it to plan my photography content ### 5/5 — Está muy bien *2025-07-12, version 2.6.17* Me gusta mucho la aplicación pero me gustaría que tuviera más elección de idiomas. ### 3/5 — Almost perfect *2025-06-18, version 2.6.17* I love the look of this but i have two issues, app won’t take full screen on my ipad, also it looks awful in landscape. Second and most importantly, it doesn’t refresh the calendar by itself, i have my tablet on forever but the calendar doesn’t update unless i click back or something. ### 5/5 — Top *2025-06-04* Dommage qu’on peu pas programmer des couleurs par thème par exemple, dommage qu’il faut payer les widget sinon je recommande ### 3/5 — I want to love it *2025-05-15, version 2.6.17* I so badly want to love it, but there is a combination of things that make it not so. - If it had month at a glance, I’d pay for this app yearly! If I’ve put something on my calendar but don’t remember where, I have to search every.single.day to find it! - roll over incomplete tasks - scrolling forever to set a time: not convenient. Maybe an analog clock could pop up and one could just tap the number? - pastel greens would look so nice with this colour palate 😉 ### 5/5 — Love *2025-05-13, version 2.6.17* Been using Planebella for about 3 years now. It’s absolutely amazing helps me keep track of everything from appointments and birthdays to bills. Love that I can set to do items, events etc and have them recurring. Highly recommend! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Trying to charge me again in the same week! *2026-07-09, version 2.6.21* No where in the App Store does it say there is a weekly charge for this app. I paid for the app and two widgets on the 5th of July and on the 9th of July the app tried to charge my card $11.99. ### 1/5 — Back~Up and Sinc *2026-03-27, version 2.6.21* Phone does not back~up info to Ipad ### 1/5 — Cute but not functional *2026-01-01, version 2.6.21* Wrote out my 2026 goals, had several items listed, did not click save, set phone down, all items erased. ### 1/5 — Not worth the price *2025-05-26, version 2.6.17* You have to pay extra forthe features that you really want. The basic most basic app. I want my money back. ### 1/5 — No help *2025-03-08, version 2.6.17* Have been trying to reach her for months for an issue and still haven’t been able to reach her. ### 1/5 — Hmmmm *2025-01-30, version 2.6.8* I’ve tried to sync all the calendars offered, and it still won’t pick up,what I just did on my phone or iPad. ### 1/5 — No help *2024-12-09, version 2.6.8* The app in itself is great and beautiful. But I’m having an issue with it and I’ve been trying to reach the creator for months and she never replies to anything. She’s impossible to reach. For this reason, I will put 1 star hoping to reach her. Otherwise I would’ve put 4 stars. ### 1/5 — Not compatible with ipad *2024-01-16, version 2.6.7* Screen does not fit ipad SOOO DISAPPOINTED ### 1/5 — Not worth the money *2024-01-01, version 2.6.7* Disappointed! ### 1/5 — iPad version *2023-05-23, version 2.5.92* We need the iPad version ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — love it *2026-06-15, version 2.6.21* Refreshingly clean design, easy to use, good job. ### 5/5 — . *2026-02-21, version 2.6.21* I like the app but think it’s kinda silly you have to pay for other parts of the app ### 5/5 — Love This App! *2026-01-28, version 2.6.21* This app is such an aesthetic! I love how simple and elegant it is. The updates have been great but do hope they’ll consider being able to add pictures for the notes/journal potions. Otherwise, I really love everything about it! ### 5/5 — Planbella *2026-01-28, version 2.6.21* Awesome! Love ❤️ it! ### 5/5 — Beautifully Aesthetic!! *2026-01-05, version 2.6.21* I love this app! I’ve been looking for something like this for years! Wish there was a search option and that the Journal section was more diary-like and didn’t show other tasks, notes, and events. Maybe in the next update? Even still, I give it a 5-star!! ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-10-09, version 2.6.17* I really Love this planner. I have been using google calendar for the past 3 years it works amazing as well. But Planbella is more simple and its my style it makes me want to look at my calendar daily. It doesn’t feel cluttered or overwhelming. Suggestions: Add a search feature. With so many events throughout the year i would like to search an event rather than looking for it on every month. ### 5/5 — The best app *2025-09-27, version 2.6.17* I’ve had this app for years and still use it on a daily basis. It is so useful to use to jot down random tasks you think of throughout the day that you’ll forget. This is definitely my most used app besides Instagram. ### 5/5 — Funzionale, bella ed elegante *2025-09-08, version 2.6.17* Uso Planbella ogni giorno e la trovo davvero stupenda: grafica elegante, semplice da usare e molto funzionale. Mi piacerebbe tantissimo se in futuro fosse possibile creare calendari separati, con un nome e un colore specifico per ognuno (ad esempio personale, lavoro, famiglia). Sarebbe la ciliegina sulla torta per rendere l’app perfetta! Complimenti agli sviluppatori per l’ottimo lavoro ✨ ### 5/5 — Very pretty diary *2025-07-31, version 2.6.17* I’ve started using a diary on my phone and it’s a very easy diary to use, especially with the widgets. The only thing I’d love to see added is a search feature as it’s hard to find entries if you’re not sure if the date. ### 5/5 — Love *2025-07-29, version 2.6.17* Been using Planebella for about 3 years now. It’s absolutely amazing helps me keep track of everything from appointments and birthdays to bills. Love that I can set to do items, events etc and have them recurring. Highly recommend! I would say it would be nice to have an overview section of reoccurring items in the month as I use it to track bills a lot --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
