### 2/5 — no added stickers after subscription?!

*2026-07-12, version 3.5.3*

I wanted ‘No Ad’ so I subscribed. No new added stickers are showing to use. Please fix.

### 2/5 — Wrong Month

*2026-07-04, version 3.5.3*

I’ve really loved this calendar app for a long time but recently the widget shows the wrong month. Deleted and reinstalled the widget. Deleted and reinstalled the app. Nothing fixes it. It’s a shame I have to delete it years into having it because of bugs.

### 4/5 — Wrong month

*2026-07-01, version 3.5.3*

Love this calendar, but now it’s not recognizing the current month. The “current month” is always the next month. Example: it’s current July, but my widget cal says August is the current month.

### 3/5 — Almost perfect

*2026-05-28, version 3.5.3*

This is the ONLY calendar that has a widget that displays daily tasks in its month calendar widget to preview without clicking on the calendar. I have two BIG problems I’m begging to fix.  The widget won’t go dark and have a black calendar. It has in the past but for a year it’s been only white.  PLEASE fix this.  Also it’s not showing up as an option for my iPhone 17 pro as a lock screen widget. Please help fix these and it’s a 10

### 4/5 — All data deleted ?

*2026-04-30*

All of my data has dissapeared no matter how much trouble shooting I have done. Please help! I love this app I rely on it !!

### 3/5 — Updates

*2026-04-24, version 3.5.2*

I used to love this app and used it nonstop, I’d have my current month and next month on a Smart Stack on my home screen so I can scroll back and forth. They recently updated their widget to where you can no longer add the next month onto the home screen so now all I can see is the current month and it’s been super glitchy. I’m actually starting to hate the app now because there’s no point in only seeing a few days ahead on the month. Wish they would have left it as it was.

### 4/5 — 위젯칼 업데이트 후

*2026-04-17*

안녕하세요 위젯칼 몇년째 잘 쓰고 있는 사람입니다. 위젯으로도 이번달, 다음달 이렇게 두개 잘 쓰고 있습니다. 그런데 이번에 업데이트를 하고 나서 다음달 위젯이 똑같이 이번달로 나오고 달력을 5월로 맞추면 이번달 달력도 같이 동기화돼서 5월로 넘어가더군요. 
이 오류 수정해주시면 감사하겠습니다. 감사합니다.

### 3/5 — Why no dark mode on widget?

*2026-04-11, version 3.5*

I used to could make the calendar widget dark black background. It has gone away when I open the widget and it is full screen, it is dark, but the widget on my phone is not. It did not used to be this way. Can you please

### 2/5 — Advertisements

*2026-04-09, version 3.5*

Tired of the Ads popping up when I need my calendar immediately

### 2/5 — Forced ads?!

*2026-03-13, version 3.4.2*

I’ve had this damm calendar app for years. Within the last two years, it now has extremely annoying forced ads. ITS JUST A CALENDAR! I store my due dates for bills on it

### 1/5 — Ads are annoying

*2026-03-12, version 3.4.2*

The ads are super annoying. Tried lookin for a way to buy the app but couldn’t find one. Time to find something else

### 2/5 — Too many ads

*2026-02-04*

Every time we open the app, there’s at least 2 ads, it’s starting to make me want to use another app.

### 1/5 — 近期頻繁出現廣告問題（已付費用戶）

*2026-02-01, version 3.4.2*

近期總是頻繁發生出現廣告，要一直去設定裡點還原應用內購買，有時候點了還是出現廣告

### 1/5 — Update the app

*2026-06-03, version 3.5.3*

What has happened to this month? Calendar? It didn’t change. It’s still a previous month.

### 1/5 — Monthly Widget no longer works

*2026-05-23, version 3.5.3*

I thought it was just a glitch but the monthly calendar widget no longer works. It’s the only thing I used it for and can’t find another. Smh

### 1/5 — Paying to use for years and everything is gone

*2026-05-10*

Ive had a subscription for years, and just within the last hour, every thing ive ever put is completely gone. I feel lost without my calendar

### 1/5 — New glitch- calendar stuck on previous month

*2026-05-10, version 3.5.3*

This app has been great (besides the ads) up until two months ago. Normally the calendar would automatically swap to the next month, now it is stuck on the previous month greyed out. I have tried deleting it and reinstalling but it still is greyed out. I made sure I do not have it on “show previous month”. I am not sure what to do but it’s frustrating. I would also love if there was a one time no ad fee instead of a subscription. I would pay 30$ to never see ads again because I love the app so much. This new glitch is just so frustrating

### 1/5 — Update

*2026-05-02, version 3.5.3*

What has happened to this month? Calendar? It didn’t change. It’s still a previous month.

### 1/5 — Come on!

*2026-04-30, version 3.5.3*

I literally purchased the app so I would no longer get the ads and legit just opened the app….and have an ad….please fix!

### 1/5 — widgetについて ios26.4

*2026-04-27*

ios26.4からウィジェットをダークモードにできず白背景だけになった。改善してほしいです。

翌月、先月など待ち時間なくボタンで行き来したり、ウィジェットの背景を半透明にする機能も改善してほしいです。

### 1/5 — Glitching

*2026-04-21*

The latest update does not let you move between months on iPad, the button doesn’t work. And on iPhone the button glitches, and does a weird fading effect. Much preferred when you could just wipe between months in the preview, month before and after. Needs fixing ASAP!!!!

### 1/5 — Ads are horrible

*2026-04-10, version 3.5*

The ads are *beyond* obnoxious. Developer provides no 'buy once' option.

### 1/5 — Why Ad?

*2026-04-06, version 3.4.2*

I have been using a paid membership for four years now and I am seeing ads these days. Why is it happening?

### 5/5 — Best Calendar app

*2026-08-04, version 3.5.3*

Love it! Only request is to be able to set a time to notify me about a reminder and have it stay at that instead of me having to set that every time

### 5/5 — Great calendar!!

*2026-07-30*

Despite the ads, this is the cutest calendar App! I've been using it for years!! 
However, I saw all events (even stat holidays) are dragged between 2 dates from Nov 2026 to Mar 2027??? Weird!! Hopefully there's a fix soon!

### 5/5 — I would choose this downloadable calendar over all others again & again..

*2026-06-18*

3+ yrs ago this calendar app was actually free to use, so I downloaded it figuring “Why not give it a try?”. I wasn’t sure how much I would actually use it, and assumed I would probably end up downloading it within a few days. Boy oh’ boy was I wrong though, this calendar is a must have for me now. I had instantly fallen  in love with the ease of its use. Having the widget on my home screen makes it super convenient when I need it. I use the different colors markers for work, doctor, family, & even my 🔴 before I had a hysterectomy. I looked at other downloadable calendars in the beginning & again when this started requiring a yearly subscription, & I still chose this one. I won’t use any other one.

### 5/5 — 위젯오류

*2026-06-17, version 3.5.3*

바탕하면 위젯 이번달이 다음달로 나와서 수정부탁드립니다 감사합니다

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2026-05-06, version 3.5.3*

Omg my favorite calendar widget ever!! I have been using it for years!! My only thing I wish is there was more event colors to choose from! Like pink and all that. Maybe even customize:) but overall I depend on this so much it’s great:)

### 5/5 — Удобный был виджет. Но испортили обновлениями.

*2026-04-20*

iPhone6s, ios15. Очень хорошо был сделан именно сам виджет. Хорошие версии этого приложения - v. 3.2.1 по v. 3.3. Начиная с v. 3.4 - виджет стал не удобным, лишился минимализма и информативности. Ставлю 5 звезд только за старые версии этого приложения.

### 5/5 — Love the app but

*2026-03-18, version 3.4.2*

You guys realize the calendar doesn’t show up on the widget when iPhone is on Clear mode in iOS 26 right

### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed

*2026-01-30, version 3.4.2*

I love this app. The month calendar widget is literally the best thing. It even synced with my work calendar so I always know my availability. What would be an amazing addition is if it had a 4week view option so we didn’t have to keep scrolling to the next month to see the following week. Love everything though.

### 5/5 — 매월 1일이 일요일이면 미리알림을 추가해도 안보여요

*2026-01-19*

ㅠㅠ어느순간부터 매월 1일이 일요일인 날짜에는 미리알림 추가가 안보여서 넘 불편해요... 지금 거의 1년이 다되어가는 것 같은데 버그 픽스가 안되네요... 젭알 부탁드려요

**Developer response:** 곧 원상복구 예정입니다 .빠른시간안에 수정하도록 노력하겠습니다.

### 5/5 — Premium (The only cal / widget app I will use!)

*2026-01-12, version 3.4.2*

It’s a new year and I find myself here again….trying to figure out how to pay for premium 😅

But luckily my old self in the had posted how!! Phew!! Saved myself hours. 

This might be the only app where I try so hard every damn time to find a way to pay for premium. Good job!
