User reviews

Calendar Does Not Work

After deleting and reloading the app several times, I continue to receive the error message “System was unable to retrieve the calendar information.” Without access to the calendar, the app is absolutely useless.

Can’t log in

Well this app is useless. I can’t even see the password I entered to confirm that it’s correct. The same password works on desktop but is rejected in app. Have you even tested with a password manager?

Error! Invalid Login

The app doesn’t work anymore. The website works, but the app just returns Error! invalid login. But it’s the same login that works in the website!?!?!??!?

Painful user experience.

Can’t log in

Well this app is useless. I can’t even see the password I entered to confirm that it’s correct. Have you even tested with a password manager?

Glitchy

Doesn’t let you edit exceptions when needed
