### 3/5 — Great simple timeline

*2026-09-01, version 1.8.4*

Easy to use and great for simple timelines where the events appear in order without proportional distance between them repeating the elapsed time. Date format fixed to year-month-date in numbers.

### 3/5 — Bug?…

*2026-08-02, version 1.8.4*

I’ve basically had this app for around three whole years, and I never had a problem with it… until now. I was doing an evolution of the Russian flag, and it didn’t show the picture even after I selected it. Using pictures was a pretty fun feature I’ve always used on this app and the fact that I can’t use flags or etc in my timelines just make them look plain and boring. I was wondering if this was a bug that you can fix or whatnot.

### 3/5 — Fantastic but doesn’t update all information to the cloud.

*2026-07-30, version 1.8.4*

This has been perfect for creating my own timelines but recently I got a new phone and only 4 of my entries out of 100’s had saved to the cloud. Very sad.

### 3/5 — Injustice 2

*2026-06-09, version 1.8.4*

The story of a cujo sci fi movie 1983

### 3/5 — Needs a few more additions

*2026-04-21, version 1.8.4*

It’s good but if there was a way to make it so the time is not in military time would be nice. Also maybe add a time line that can go left to right and vice-versa.

### 3/5 — Needs some big fixes

*2026-01-24, version 1.8.4*

I want to use it for world history dating back to the earliest times. However, it cannot handle very long times ago. For example, I want to note the time of the first human settlement, at Jericho, in 8500 BC. But the app cannot handle 8500 BC and stores it as 4713 BC. That seems to be the earliest year it can handle. Please fix this.

### 2/5 — This app seems to be abandoned

*2025-12-18, version 1.8.4*

The app is good but it does not allow you to input dates earlier than -4713, which limits it. The developer is not responding to request to fix it.

### 4/5 — 날라갔어요

*2025-12-07, version 1.8.4*

잘 쓰고 있었는데 폰에 깔고 패드에 까니까 갑자기 둘다 날라갔어요..

### 4/5 — Periods of time

*2025-09-25, version 1.8.4*

Hi, this is an incredible app, and i love it for my study of history, but i would be glad if you would be able to add not only one-time events, but also longer periods of time. Thank you very much and have a nice day!

### 3/5 — Good but needs some improvement

*2025-08-14, version 1.8.4*

Great but we need the ability to change date format -mm/dd/yyyy. 
Also, cloud back-up

### 5/5 — Simple & Great

*2025-08-02, version 1.8.4*

This app is great! It allows me to keep an ongoing timeline of  important events in several different people's lives. It would be nice to be able to change the format of the date and it would be nice to be able to attach more than 1 picture to each timeline date.

### 5/5 — 5

*2025-07-15, version 1.8.4*

perfect. love it

### 5/5 — Analysis

*2025-07-08, version 1.8.4*

Still figuring it all out but I’m working on getting my stuff out of my car so I  move in a house by myself

### 5/5 — Extremely Easy to Use

*2025-07-02, version 1.8.4*

Very Useful!

### 4/5 — A request

*2025-06-17, version 1.8.4*

Not sure if you still update the app, it’s pretty good. But can you make it so the BC number goes past -4713, it’s a little annoying for me

### 5/5 — Simply Amazing

*2025-06-14, version 1.8.4*

Easy to use, exactly what you need when you want a Time Line

### 5/5 — Does what it says

*2025-06-06, version 1.8.4*

For the free version, I have no complaints. It’s user friendly and well laid out.

### 1/5 — Needs work or has been neglected

*2026-07-01, version 1.8.4*

Purchased upgrade as was a fair price and liked simple clean layout but found cloud syncing and saving faulty. Timelines created with care and effort disappears and sync between devices is patchy and unreliable. Makes it unusable. Shame.

### 1/5 — It’s fun

*2026-02-20, version 1.8.4*

Yeah could use some improvements

### 1/5 — Data went missing

*2025-05-13, version 1.8.4*

Used the app for a good while, suddenly all my data is gone. The timelines are present, but ALL the data is gone. Total waste.

### 1/5 — Disaster

*2025-05-08, version 1.8.4*

I have been looking for an app like this for a while, to help organize the books I write. However, this app does not cut it. Reasons: 1) it does not support any date system other than the normal American one (Chinese and Hebrew calendars would be nice, but I’m a science fiction/fantasy writer, so a completely customizable one would be nice to fit my world). 2) Cannot organize events easily. You have to go into each one and change the date, and if the date is the same, you can’t make one go first or last in the order you want. It would be great if you could simply hold-and-drag them to better organize events of a story, kind of like storyboards. 3) less than a week after I purchased this app and already put in an entire book’s worth of events, it randomly deleted all of my data in every timeline I had on the app. #3 is definitely the most grievous.

### 1/5 — Avis

*2025-03-12, version 1.8.4*

Nul je recommande pas du tout

### 1/5 — Просто и удобно

*2025-01-04, version 1.8.4*

Но это с начала.
Две звёзды снимаются потому что синхронизация перестала срабатывать. Ещё две звёзды снялись. А потом одно горе с синхронизацией. Нет смысла устанавливать на два устройства. Не надолго хватило этой разработки. К установке категорически не рекомендую. Только на мусорную свалку!

### 1/5 — 有内容当着我的面消失了

*2024-10-30, version 1.8.4*

点进去我的内容还在，突然它刷新了一下，内容消失了大半

### 1/5 — Times order them selfs wrong

*2024-10-24, version 1.8.4*

At the moment I’m planing this murder mystery game and wanted to organise the events into a timeline however the when I input the dates into the time line it doesn’t work for example it would look like this 

Event 1 - 5:00 PM

Event 2 - 7:30 AM

Event 3 - 11:45 PM

I’m guessing it only works with a 24h clock but in the app there is no way to change that or manually move the events around 

Please fix this !!!!

### 1/5 — Deletes / Corrupts timelines

*2024-05-18, version 1.8.4*

If you use this program expect half of your data to randomly disappear. I was working on a novel timeline when all but a few of the events vanished.

### 1/5 — No tech support?

*2024-02-12, version 1.8.4*

I really like this app. It has a lot of potential. But I’ve tried to get some tech support due to lost data and no one seems to be on the other end. Feel frustrated having put time and effort into an app and having move all the info to something more reliable. Otherwise my rating would be higher. 

I am still hoping someone will respond.

### 5/5 — Huge fan

*2026-06-25, version 1.8.4*

Very simple and just what I need. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Free and so very helpful

*2026-06-14, version 1.8.4*

I am giving the “life in the uk” test for my British citizenship. So many dates in this book to learn and remember. This app helped me to arrange the dates in a linear way and also remember them. I wish it had a “search” function to find a key word in the timeline.

### 5/5 — Love it.

*2026-05-09, version 1.8.4*

How to Backup created Timelines?

### 5/5 — Cool so far

*2026-05-06, version 1.8.4*

Not bad for simple things

### 5/5 — Nearly Perfect

*2026-03-14, version 1.8.4*

all you need is some options to allow correct placement of events in same year.

### 5/5 — Not bad

*2026-01-18, version 1.8.4*

App does what it says. Not much else to do other than to make simple timelines. Would love more features, but I don’t see anything wrong with the app at all. I just feel like if I’m going to pay, I should get way more than just unlimited timelines.

### 5/5 — 很方便，容易使用

*2025-12-07, version 1.8.4*

如果能加入多條時間線同時進行對比就更好了

### 5/5 — J 人极度友好

*2025-12-05, version 1.8.4*

对于重大事件里程碑的记录有了非常好的一个平台，感谢创作者和研发人员的创意和付出，非常喜欢，❤️

### 5/5 — So Helpful!

*2025-10-25, version 1.8.4*

I use this to track historic events, to manage concepts, and plan the future. The clean, simple interface in timeline format is so very helpful. I haven’t found anything else like it.!!

### 5/5 — Love this app. Could be better.

*2025-09-27, version 1.8.4*

Would like the option of not using the YEAR. this would allow for SEASONAL timelines that repeat annually. 

Also would like the option of having a photo-based timeline. (Not text heavy) To track my garden growth and flower blooms.
