### 2/5 — Doesn’t seem to work

*2024-10-01*

I emailed company, after purchasing this for the sole reason of documenting music numbers every Sunday at church. I have no interest in syncing my current used calendar with this app. But this seems to not allow me to add to it directly. So it’s of no use. Can you add update for us to use as we need? Then I’ll change and give 5 star review.  But honestly this is why I don’t like purchasing apps before knowing how they work. It’s wasting money.

### 3/5 — Just what I needed

*2022-09-06*

worth the $1. i like how the days expand to show all the events on that day. A competitor app only showed the first 3 events for each weekend unless you clicked into it, which was not helpful. However it would be nice to actually edit the events. when you click on an event, it just takes you to that day in the Apple calendar app.

EDIT:  after using it for several months, it now crashes every time I try to open it.  It could be a recent iOS update- or maybe I have too many calendars syncing.  I have to completely uninstall and reinstall to get it to launch again- but that only fixes it for a couple weeks and it crashes again

### 5/5 — Really helpful when you need it

*2018-11-14*

Love the ability to look at upcoming weekends separate from overall calendar. Glad for the update to iPhone X size screens and iPad split screen mode. Glad to see the app is being kept fresh!

### 5/5 — So far it does all that I need

*2016-05-09*

A great way to get a quick view of what you have coming up outside of your work calendar. I like that it is zero config, just pulling from the calendar app. Being able to add Friday's works nicely too.
Just what I was looking for!

### 5/5 — Awesome now!!

*2015-11-11*

If you want to easyway to organise your social calendar in this is definitely the app you need to get!! I have used it on an earlier version weher Fridays were not included, they have now given the option to include Fridays and this tweak makes organising my social life just so much easier!!
Get it, you wont regret it!!
