### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for

*2013-11-03*

Simple and to the point. Shows what is in your calendar on weekends better than any other calendar app I have seen.

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2013-11-01*

Great for planning the weekends.

### 5/5 — Great design and functionality

*2013-10-27*

Well designed clean visual of my weekend plans. Easy to see my plans and access them. A quicker and better visual than existing calendar apps.

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2013-10-22*

Love having my lovely weekends in a different place than work meetings and boring stuff. Fun UI!

### 5/5 — Great App to enable planning your most fun days !!

*2013-10-20*

Great App to just look at Weekend schedules and enable planning them. You don't have to check the many calendars you have and search for what you are doing 5 weekends from today. Gives you a 12 weekend view of Saturdays and Sundays…a great, great app !!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2013-10-13*

Use it all the time to plan my sailing week-ends. Highly recommended!

### 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

### 4/5 — Great app

*2014-06-08*

I love the simplicity of the app and that I can now, eventually, plan my weekends easily. 

This is a real case of "does what it says on the tin", effectively and easily. 

The only thing it needs, in my opinion, is to be able to add calendar items from the screen rather than going out and into my main calendar.

### 4/5 — Close to perfect

*2014-02-22*

I have always thought calendar apps were missing a dedicated view of just weekends. This app hits in a home run in that regard. The recent update fixed some minor annoyances in the first version. It is limited to just viewing, and the official calendar can’t even be launched from this app. That is fine, since it doesn’t claim to be more than that.

There is one negative, the times are only displayed in 24 hour format. That and the inability to even launch the calendar from this app are why I took a star off.

Overall, great app.

### 4/5 — Really useful app

*2014-01-31*

Brilliant for concentrating only on weekends in your busy calendar. Very useful and looks good too. Thanks. Seeing a year of weekends would give it 5 stars from me!

### 4/5 — Pretty straightforward, very useful

*2013-10-14*

Option to show more than 12 upcoming weekends, bookmarking select weekends would be nice for later versions.

### 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!!

### 5/5 — Simple but very effective

*2015-11-07*

This is the perfect example of keeping something simple and very effective. Weekend planning has never been made easier!

*2015-06-13*

Simple view of upcoming weekends.

### 5/5 — Nice, convenient, practical, good app!

*2014-10-30*

A very good help.  Shows all my weekend engagements in one easy to access app. Can't recommend it highly enough!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2014-10-29*

Wow, what a cool app to focus on weekends! Hope this app connects with Pegg'd! Xo

### 5/5 — Elegantly excellent

*2014-07-28*

Does what it says elegantly and simply. Really handy for someone, like me, that has very busy weekends planned a long time in advance. Only thing it's missing is understanding Bank Holidays.

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2014-06-26*

Love this app for quick reference of just weekend plans. Simple to set up. Such a time saver.
