### 3/5 — Note

*2023-01-25, version 1.5.3*

The idea of ​​​​the application is great, but there is a problem when you paste and lock the screen, everything goes

### 2/5 — Too Many Updates

*2019-10-28, version 1.5.3*

Y’all aren’t doing enough beta testing. The bar is higher for paid apps. Go free (and refund those of us who have already paid) if you’re going to use us as test subjects.

**Developer response:** Hi,
Thanks for your review. We keep adding new features based on users feedback. Some apps have weekly updates for us we try to keep the app up to date to catch up with all the iOS changes. We usually do not release frequent updates.

Please email us if you have further feedback or questions.

Regards,
Support team

### 2/5 — Not what I expected

*2018-05-16, version 1.3.3*

Based on the screen shots this app isn’t what I expected.  I was planning on using this app as a shopping list app but it’s not what I expected.

If you had two shopping lists each item for each list will be listed individually and not as a sub list to each of the stores.  

In addition to all my other items in my reminder they show up also under the widgets area too.  

Thanks but not what I expected.

**Developer response:** Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a feedback. Actually you can view all items from several lists in one view. Scroll until you see “All reminders”. From the setting you can hide or show the lists that you are interested to see in the widget. 
Please email our support to help you better use the app.

Regards,
Developer

### 3/5 — Good idea; ugly graphic design

*2018-02-05, version 1.3.3*

Good idea but the developer needs to care about and make at least some effort at graphic design. 

Shaded Emoji type characters for alarm bell, folder etc. on flat iOS 7 UI style? Really? Ever read the iOS UI guidelines and examples?

Buttons with text labels having underlined Unicode characters like URL links in an HTML doc? Seriously? These clutter up the UI, distract from functionality, and look amateur. 

Don’t small time developers ever look at other apps for good design? Being able to code does not make you good at design. Just get a friend with any artistic ability to critique your design if you don’t feel confident about your own aesthetic sensibilities

### 4/5 — Almost perfect!

*2018-01-05, version 1.3.3*

Would be great if one is able to copy/text/ share list

### 1/5 — Didn’t even get to try it.

*2017-10-23, version 1.3.2*

It froze up my brand new iPad Pro. First app to do so. Gone gone gone.

### 1/5 — Not working...

*2017-09-30, version 1.3.2*

It doesn't expand in iOS 11. Hitting "show more"/"show less" doesn't fix it. Neither does removing/re-adding, restarting phone etc. It only shows the top line of the first reminder on your list and that's it. Please fix it.

### 5/5 — I really like this app!

*2017-08-12, version 1.3.2*

I really like that this app keeps reminding me of the things that I need to do in such a timely manner! It's so cool! Rachel

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2017-06-15, version 1.3.2*

Very well done!

### 5/5 — Getting to live it

*2017-06-13, version 1.3.2*

I started using this recently as I had to change my calendar and the calendar use reminders. Like this as it allows me to enter reminders on my lock screen and also look at all reminders. So far, I have found nothing I can complain about. Thanks for such a great product.

### 1/5 — Widget doesn’t even appear in widgets list

*2023-10-30*

I just purchased it, everything up to date, uninstalled, reinstalled, opened it, closed it, offloaded and reloaded it, rebooted my phone… all in various orders.

I can’t get the widget to even show up as an option, so the app functions as the digital equivalent of a paperweight.

### 1/5 — No difference with or without

*2021-10-03, version 1.5.3*

I’ve had this widget since I bought the iPhone X when it first came out. After finally upgrading to iPhone 13 pro I pondered what the widget really does - so I deleted it to see what I’d lose. Guess what? I lost nothing! My Apple reminders behave exactly the same as they did with the widget. Could be user ignorance? Maybe. But when I reinstalled the widget and checked again I saw absolutely no difference. I deleted it again, same outcome. So I see no point for having this widget. I’m moving forward without it.

### 1/5 — Glad I didn’t have to pay

*2020-02-19, version 1.5.3*

Got app free to try. Didn’t work. Would have been even less happy had I paid anything for this. All it does is allow me to open my Reminders - which I can do on the Reminders icon. Even video help is useless.

**Developer response:** Hi,
This is not the purpose of this app. The purpose of this app is to be used as a widget. Please add the widget to your Notification Center. Tap on quick help, it will show you how to do that.
When you open the app, you will only see the settings for the widget.

Please contact by tapping on “send feedback” from the app for help setting.

Thanks

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2020-01-23, version 1.5.3*

Used to be great but doesn’t work anymore.  It’s permanently stuck on ‘Today or overdue,’ and it’s impossible to change to show all reminders.

**Developer response:** Hi,
Please contact our support, we will be glad to resolve your issue. This might be because of your settings.

Regards,

### 1/5 — Doesn’t look like help video

*2019-03-27, version 1.4.1*

My app doesn’t open up with a nice full view of everything that needs to be manipulated during the set up of the reminder.

### 1/5 — You broke it

*2019-01-17, version 1.4.0*

Like SO many other developers you broke it with this last update. Deleting.

### 1/5 — Fake

*2018-11-08, version 1.3.4*

It says free but it cost 1.99$ and my bill is cut off :( .

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for iPhone syncing google calendar

*2018-11-06, version 1.3.4*

This app does not work for my situation.

### 1/5 — such a waste of time to install this app

*2018-05-16, version 1.3.3*

such a waste of time to install this app

### 1/5 — Update not working with iOS 9 device

*2017-12-14, version 1.3.3*

This app was working well on my iPhone 5s until the recent update. Please fix!

### 5/5 — Does what it needs to

*2020-04-17, version 1.5.3*

So far so good. I’m afraid of any new update.  😑

**Developer response:** Hi,
The usage is the same we only added extra features based on customers feedback.

Please contact us we are happy to help you and clarify anything that is confusing.

Thanks

### 5/5 — If it has icons too

*2020-01-25, version 1.5.3*

It was good if for each work use its icon in front of task

### 5/5 — Much improved since 2018

*2019-11-05, version 1.5.3*

Most problems corrected, best Reminders widget.

### 5/5 — World record for fastest fix releases.

*2019-10-03, version 1.4.2*

I just got the app early this morning. I emailed the support team with a few issues/concerns that I discovered when I initially tried the app, and had a satisfactory fix or explanation to each item by EOD. Very impressive. Other apps (not just reminder apps) at best say they’ll fix the issue with an update in a certain number of days or weeks. This app released an update today in response to my email. That’s incredible.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2019-01-24, version 1.4.0*

Great app and very useful reminder widget.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2018-11-02, version 1.3.4*

I got this app because the native Reminders widget doesn’t show me all the reminders I’ve entered. Sometimes I enter things that don’t necessarily have set due dates but are things I need to do at some point. This shows me everything simple and effective!

### 5/5 — Giving it 5 stars.

*2017-12-31, version 1.3.3*

User friendly & very practical!!!!

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2017-09-18, version 1.3.2*

Best widget to-do list. By far. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Reminder

*2017-08-17, version 1.3.2*

Able to stay on task

### 5/5 — Hi

*2017-08-16, version 1.3.2*

Is one of the best applications
