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.

What the heck

I was on the app and then it showed random links

Recently app update deleted the informations

My reminders some deleted after recent update

Deleted Data

I’ve been using this app for years now and this has never been an issue but suddenly ALL of my data deleted and even trying the steps the app offers didn’t work. Why is it that the only backup available is from TODAY? AFTER all of my things were deleted.

Use to love it

I’ve used this app for years with very minimal issues. Randomly yesterday everything I had scheduled on my calendar vanished with no trace. I can’t even restore the data from my iCloud or the app. Apparently there was an update the day this happened and I didn’t see that everything was gone until today. Very frustrating when the calendar was my life line for my ADHD brain to stay on track.

DO NOT USE

I had this app for about 6 months, it worked great and was perfect for everything i needed, until one day i open the app and EVERYTHING is gone. Every single event, birthday, reminder, completely disappeared. I followed the instructions on how to get everything back and nothing worked. I have no idea what was on the calander for this upcoming week and now I’m going to have to download another app and remake the whole thing. Don’t get this app theres so many others to choose from !!

Great calendar!

Super simple and great large calendar for my ipad

Does all I need.

I have abandoned paid for “Fantastical” due to their constant search for more profits. Simple calendar is more basic but provides all the essentials.

I would gladly pay for this app…one time, not the monthly BS

Don’t download this!!!

Entire calendar keeps disappearing, I use this for my job and have to ask clients to confirm dates they’ve booked. Deleting the app

only flaw

can’t transfer between devices everything else amazing

обязателен доступ к календарю

без этого ничего не рабоатет лол

GREAT APP

This App is well done, accurate and helpful. I very much like how it helps me regulate my daily routine.

Terrible design

Apparently if you make a recurring events you can’t edit or delete it. Terrible. I made a recurring event for monthly and now it’s just on my calendar forever and I can’t delete it. Will be deleting the app because of this.

Got to get

This app is great for all ages. I’m a senior and have been using it for years and I’ve never prior to the last several years, used a Calendar app. No papers, no notebook.

No longer has multiple alerts

I am disappointed to see that the update 2.8has not fixed the issue of setting up multiple alerts for a single event. I have the previous release (2.5.3) on my iPhone 16 pro and the app works great. But the latest releases on my iPhone 17 pro seemed to have remove the ability to have multiple alert reminders for the event. I normally would have the alert go off 1hr before, then 30minutes before 10 minutes before the event

I wish Apple would let me install the previous version, because I have had no issues with it. Both phones are on iOS 27.0.1

It's annoying to use multiple calendars now.

Fortunately, when I am home I have my 16 pro near me.

Awful.

Removed all of my events continuously. Re downloaded and upgraded the app and all of my events were gone.
