Brilliant. No fancy gimmicks, just the perfect and simple date wheel I was after.

### 5/5 — Simple Date Wheel

Very nice!

Be nice to have a digital read out of the dates as you rotate thru in one of the corners.

### 5/5 — Love it. Exactly what I was looking for

*2024-02-15*

Please add a field in which I can see the date I’m calculating from and a button to auto set that to today

### 5/5 — Simple and effective!

*2021-10-21*

Great - Nice to have this always in my pocket!
One suggestion: Add button on top to automatically go to today’s date if needed. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Too big on iPad mini

*2020-11-10*

Look like an hexagon more than a wheel if you know what I mean

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2020-04-03*

I would give 5 star if this app has features like;
1. A “TODAY” button to go back to today by one touch
2. Haptic feedback when rotating wheel
3. A window that shows date the Red arrow is pointing.
Hope to see these in the next release.

### 1/5 — WARNING - RIP OFF DO NOT PURCHASE

Just like a classic paper wheel on your phone. Easy to use and really quite elegant. Well done!

### 4/5 — Perfect (almost)

*2019-03-07*

Easy to use. Love the clean interface. Only thing I recommend is the possibility for panning while zoomed.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2019-02-24*

Works well and is easy to use. Cheaper than buying an actual date wheel.
