### 4/5 — Nice app but upgrade was unsuccessful

*2020-02-25, version 1.0*

This app is exactly what I was looking for, but had to upgrade to be able to sync iPad with my iPhone with iCloud and to have more than the five reminders the free app allows. So I paid for the upgrade and still cannot do either. Not happy and can’t reach the developer to fix.

Future upgrade of the app should include an hourly countdown.
Sometimes, events ends the same day at different moments.
