User reviews

My all time fav calendar app!

I absolutely ADORE SimplyCal!! I’ve been using it since August 2022 (yes, I went back through my app history to see when I downloaded it just for this review lol) and I haven’t looked back since!

It’s so easy to navigate and use, and SO MUCH BETTER than the default calendar app Apple gives you! I love that you get to see a month view and that you can color code everything.

My only complaint (though it’s not really a complaint since it doesn’t actually affect the app’s performance or my experience) is that I wish there were more colors to choose from! Yes, while the 20 lovely colors you have access to are great, I WANT MORE! Perhaps I’m just greedy (and slightly OCD) but I want a full on color wheel so I can customise my colors and make everything completely different, without even the slightest chance of two shades looking similar. 😂

Overall, I LOVE this app and haven’t even once considered switching to anything else. I do remember going through a few different calendar apps before coming across SimplyCal, but as soon as I downloaded it, it became the obvious choice

Love, love, love it!!

Time zones

If you travel to different time zones this app is Not for you. I schedule things out before I travel. When I get to the new time zone all my schedule times change.

Really like

Love the ease of operation and the syn is best. Reminder is spaced as I like. Colors stand out for quick recognize.

Favorite Calendar App

I love this app. I have been using it for several years. It’s the only digital calendar I use. I have recommended it to friends and family.

Everything gone

Every single event and reminder I had on there is completely gone.. including memories I had.
