They do not show as having been selected, so I do not feel I can rely on them. I have used this app for quite a few years . ### 2/5 — Deleting events *2026-09-08, version 26.5* The app has now deleted all my events 2x ### 3/5 — Ok *2026-09-06, version 26.5* I love the calendar but I miss the ability to share a single event with my loved ones. I don’t want to share my whole calendar to send a birthday event, or to share with my husband that we have to pick his mom up at the airport. ### 3/5 — Been using for about 15 years!! *2026-09-02, version 26.5* Its s great app, lots of features other apps don’t have. But the latest version does have some bugs that are getting annoying. I thought they’d have fixed them by now… ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-08-30, version 26.5* I’ve used PocketLife for a few years now. I absolutely love it! With my busy schedule, this is the best app to keep up with me. ### 4/5 — Good *2026-08-30, version 26.5* Works quite well, but a bit expensive. Just got used to it so not that drawn to (free) alternatives ### 4/5 — Needs more tools *2026-08-30, version 26.5* Needs an event copy option to include location so you don't have to make a template for everything. Other than that it's pretty good. ### 4/5 — Great, only one wish *2026-08-29, version 26.5* This is an excellent calendar. It lets me use different colors for different types of events. Ok I would like it even more if it would sounds the alert for an event every few minutes until I acknowledge the alert. My old Palm device did that and I found it very helpful! Thank you for this great app!nevhc you y ### 5/5 — PocketLife is incredible! *2026-08-29, version 26.5* I’ve been using for years now.
