### 5/5 — Simple, Clear, No Sign-in

*2019-01-02*

In planning, nothing is more important than clarity, and this app has been designed based on this criteria, and nothing else. You will never get things done if you bury your calendar under tens of color codes, etc. Whenever’s simplicity and minimalism guaranty a reliable companion that does what it is expected to do.

### 5/5 — Great interface!

*2018-01-09*

Its user interface is amazingly simple. I was looking for a minimal time planner and i had almost lost all my hope in finding one right after installing a large sized app, claiming to be minimal, but far from it. But i saw Whenever and since the size was rather small, i installed it. When i put in my first schedule in it... i realized, this is it! It was the app i have been looking for. Thanks to the deveoper, many thanks.

### 5/5 — Really slick interface and makes using calendar/to-do fun!

*2017-03-17*

I have been using this app for a few months now and have absolutely fallen in love with the interactions. The way you swipe tasks and events away is really slick. It's great how it incorporates your task list and calendar events into one spot to make it easy to see what is happening for the day. To really unlock the full potential of the a go for the upgrade. It is really what makes Whenever shine.

### 5/5 — You'll never look at a calendar the same way.

*2017-02-26*

My calendar and to-do list all in one place? Yep and it works incredibly well!

### 5/5 — ESSENTIAL

*2017-02-19*

I can no longer imagine a life without this app. It’s my primary scheduling/organizational tool and without a doubt the only one I need. It’s minimalist design and functionality make the most daunting tasks on your calendar feel manageable. Download it now, tell everyone you know. Make your life better.

### 5/5 — The good stuff

*2017-02-15*

It's all too common these days for new productivity apps to arrive on the scene, claiming to be the next best thing. Pleeeease. This app makes a convincing argument that flash does not equal utility. Its intuitive interface, clever use of simple yet effective icons, and allowing for just enough customization to keep the user satisfied are the main pillars that enable this app to stand tall amongst its peers, while maintaining a lean profile. In a market inundated with developers striving to be novel solely for the sake of novelty, Whenever is a breath of fresh, productive air. Breathe it in, baby.

### 5/5 — Amazinggg 💯

*2017-02-14*

Best calendar I've experienced yet.

### 5/5 — My go-to calendar!

*2017-02-14*

I love this app. Beautiful design and so easy to use :)

### 5/5 — Been using it for months!

*2017-02-11*

Great little app that combines the power of a calendar with the swiping ability of a to do list. I like the satisfaction of swiping off both events and to dos and leaving my day feeling like I've accomplished everything. Great app!

### 2/5 — Possible bug?

*2019-04-30*

Not sure if I changed something on my end, but I seem to have lost the ability to create new events and change the calendar they appear on, one essential function I have for this app. I hope it’s a bug that will be fixed shortly! I have many calendars and I love that I am able to maintain them all through one app

**Developer response:** Thank you for the praise, and for reporting this issue! The bug with changing calendars seems to have been caused by an iOS update. It's fixed in the latest version of Whenever.

### 3/5 — Broken

*2017-02-11*

Paid to upgrade, crashes on open

**Developer response:** Hey there, sorry to hear the app crashed on you! Can you email support@whenever.io so that we may assist you?

Update: Our latest release (1.1.5) fixes a bug that we're pretty sure was the culprit for this crash. Sorry for the delay - it took a while for us to find another person who was affected by this and could help us debug it. Please update, and feel free to reach out with any other concerns!

### 4/5 — Nice Simple App

*2025-02-07*

This is a nice simple app with calendar use.  I do wish it could be updated for ipad screen size and widget use.  Also the help/faq doesn’t seem to be showing anything, no website… but I do hope the developer may come back to this app.  Works with ios18.3.

### 5/5 — Easy to use, efficient, worth downloading

*2024-04-27*

I LOVE this app. It's very simple to use, and I really love the fact that you can easily move your tasks that you haven't completed from one day or even one week/month to the next. you can also go back and look at prior events if you need to see what you scheduled weeks or months ago. You can also integrate calendars and events from your iPhone into this app.
It's a very efficient little calendar, I would highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-08-04*

5 Stars

### 5/5 — Widget

*2023-07-18*

Love it. Favourite and best to-do/calendar app I've ever found. Upgrading to pro is like less than $10 and a one time payment; amazing. Only thing to make it better would be a widget

### 5/5 — Worth paying for, even though Free is good enough.

*2022-12-26*

Rarely do I pay for an app simply because I like it and want to thank the developer. I’ve been using this app for weeks, and it’s perfect for the way I organize my plans.

The color-coding available with the paid version is extremely helpful. I have colors for appointments, questions, things to say to people, and more.

The beauty of this app is that items don’t require start or end times, and can be dragged and dropped to other days. Didn’t get around to something? No big deal, just drag it down to another day! Boom, done - no fuss, no endless menus and tedious work just to change a date and time. Drag and drop. Done. 

Of course, items can have a start time and end time. Have an appointment at 2:00pm on Monday? Great, the unscheduled items will place themselves around that anchor point in your day. If the appointment ends up rescheduled, guess what? Just drag it and drop it into the new day - the time of day will remain, and can also be adjusted within two taps. Glorious. 

Completed items stay safe in a filter for each day, so you can review, move, or duplicate them to other days, easily. Again, it’s all drag-and-drop. 

Thank you to the developer - you have made my life better. Thank you.

### 5/5 — More Appreciation of this app

*2021-10-03*

First and foremost, everyone should recommend this app on your cellphone as a digital planner on the go.

### 5/5 — Lovely appearance

*2021-05-02*

I needed a replacement for a paper calendar, where I could simply list an event without picking an hour. This app turned out to have a very attractive layout. I like how I can drag an entry to a different day, and how pinching in or out allows me to switch between the month view and the day view. As a visually impaired reader, I also appreciate how the type size of the entries can be changed through iOS's "larger text" feature.

### 5/5 — The best list app ever

*2020-10-24*

I’ve tried them all and this app is the best. It’s simple and way to use. It’s as close to keeping an old school paper list as you can get. I’d give it 10 stars if I could!

### 5/5 — Why I like this app

*2020-04-15*

This by far surpassed my expectations. I have tried many other calendar apps but they do not even come close to comparing. My favorite feature is how you can move an event to another day. For example when I have a long term project I just keep moving it so I remember. Could not recommend enough.

### 5/5 — Only what I need..

*2020-01-21*

Love how the simplicity of the app actually make me use it every day!

### 5/5 — Great weight

*2019-12-27*

Little weight, clutter free and just what I was looking for.
