Use it every morning while I’m getting ready for work. Use it throughout the day to check my appointments for the coming weeks. It syncs all appointments from iPhone calendar ### 4/5 — A great app !! *2020-06-10, version 3.1* Simple and elegant design. No ads. No tracking. No notifications. Just a simple and useful “home screen.” Great for work or home. Some duplication of holidays from Outlook calendar but simple to delete these. One of my very favorite apps! ### 3/5 — Some issues *2019-04-07, version 3.1* The app is nice but having some issues: 1. Calendar does not sync with all Ipods AND Ipad Air I have; 2. The paid App only works on either Iphone OR IPad unless you paid twice separately for them. Yet you don't know until one of them is paid and installed. I have purchaed tons of Apps, all of them is paid once and compatible for both Iphones and Ipads. ### 4/5 — Good but need to update for Weather error *2018-12-17, version 3.1* This app is still beautiful desktop clock and calendar. Everything is fine. The only one error is in the weather indicator. It works well in Fahrenheit but cannot show Celsius weather. Could you please correct this problem? OK.. I found Celsius works fine in the English mode but still malfunctioning in the Korean language mode. ### 3/5 — Nice App but needs help *2018-05-24, version 3.1* I’ve contacted the developer twice to fix a problem with the calendar selection page. The page is devoid of text and only check marks appear. I haven’t been able to sync my iCloud calendar, but the outlook calendar is synced. I’m hoping it is because the iCloud calendar needs to be selected, which I am unable to identify. ### 3/5 — Could be better *2018-04-23, version 3.1* A great app for appointment reminder. Easy to use. I just wish it would keep the records of my appointments on my calendar. There are times you need to go back and review your appointments. ### 3/5 — Bug at the Calendar List *2018-02-27, version 3.1* The calendar list name isn’t showing up. Till now, we have to click at every cell to select the right calendars, it is a try and error thing. ### 5/5 — I love this app *2017-02-01, version 3.1* Beautiful well laid out display covers everything I need to know in a quick glance. ### 5/5 — 99% Useful *2017-01-26, version 3.1* Fantastic easy to use app that gives me an overview of my day and week/month ahead. Clean and functional design. Developer- the following features would be welcome, and allow me to get rid of all the bloated 'day planner' type apps on my devices. Updating to iOS 10, add showing scheduled Reminders (with a way to add or edit a reminder), and presenting an option to reduce the size of, or remove, the time would be welcome. A few tweaked color themes would be nice too. ### 4/5 — Happy to Place iPhone at Desk-side *2016-10-09, version 3.1* I was looking for apps in order to use my old iPhone 4S at desk-side. This app shows time, calendar, next schedules that are all I would like to know. I love the simple, beautiful design. I would like to suggest a few tings to make the Work Time five-star app: (1) Please provide an option for selecting the start day of a week -- I prefer Monday. (2) Because iPhone 4S has a smaller display, the calendar is shown in a small size; an option to enlarge the calendar in exchange for using smaller font in next schedules and for shrinking/hiding the weather forecast space would be very helpful for me. ### 4/5 — Love it! *2016-09-19, version 3.1* Love having time, temperature, forecast, brief calendar all in one simple display. Only thing missing is the option to have an event repeat every weekday (but not on weekends). Even better would be option to choose custom multi-day repeats that are not "daily", "weekly", or "monthly". Still, will keep and enjoy and hope for update! ### 5/5 — Love this app!! *2016-06-06, version 3.1* Simple app that gives you a top down look at the day. The first app I open everyday. Loads in an instant. Easy to set up. I bought both the phone app and the iPad app. ### 4/5 — Great app. Works great!! *2016-05-01, version 3.1* Works great and has all my birthdays and holidays. I'll keep this one. ### 4/5 — Simple slick and neat! *2016-04-30, version 3.1* L.O.V.E. this app. Simple, slick and neat. It's wonderful to know when and where I am, as well as where I need to be soon. It would be soooo cool if we could make it our wallpaper. Constantly presented on the phone while it waits for me. Just love it and want more of it! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Setting are blank. *2019-02-19, version 3.1* Can’t fix the settings or choose the calendar because the settings page is blank. ### 1/5 — Junk *2019-01-08, version 3.1* You have to open the app to use it. It doesn’t simply show as your desktop. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2017-11-19, version 3.1* Automatically adds all calendars so that events are duplicated; but “calendars,” under settings, shows NO calendars, only check marks so that changes cannot be made. ### 1/5 — Very useful *2016-09-19, version 3.1* Neat app, needs to be a widget also ### 1/5 — Nice while it worked *2016-03-10, version 3.1* This was a nice app for a few weeks. Now it only shows its splash screen for one minute and then it crash. Tried reinstalling, but no success. ### 1/5 — Overcharged Me! *2016-02-09, version 3.1* Great app, but charged my iTunes account $20 for this "free"app! ### 2/5 — not worth the money *2016-09-16, version 3.1* please add a timer option. ### 2/5 — One Problem Immediately Apparent *2016-04-08, version 3.1* The app is correct about my location, but says it's 83 F outside. In fact, it's 53 F outside! ### 2/5 — Not for Calendar Use *2013-10-24, version 2.1* Sorry I paid for this app which appears to be only for aesthetic purposes. The monthly calendar itself is fixed to the current date therefore useless to me. User cannot view any date other than present date. Cannot view or review dates/notations on past dates or view months to come to choose dates/check schedule ahead. User can schedule events using a scrolling feature but nothing correlates to the actual monthly calendar on the screen. The calendar on this screen is nonfunctional. If you want yet another app that shows time and temp and current date, you can can select colors to light up your screen but for my purposes, a working calendar, it's useless. A waste of the $1.99. After I discovered the problem after the DL, I did contact developer to ask about the calendar function in case I missed a setting that kept the monthly calendar on the screen frozen. No reply. ### 3/5 — Love the app but… *2021-11-07, version 3.1* Love the app, but sometimes the calendar doesn’t work and the app is in disparate need to be updated. Last one was 5 yrs ago and now doesn’t work until update is done. If it’s still in the App Store then get on the ball and get that update done. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple is often The Best *2022-11-16, version 3.1* This is an app I can say I’ve actually USED for years. It’s nothing special, but with a click of a button I can see: - Current time (in my desired format) - A nice simple calendar of current month - Succinct weather forecast for the week -Agenda view of desired calendars. The layout for this is almost perfect. SO many calendars today are over-engineered, the UI is….”busy” and it is simply not practical. For me, when I just want to know “What day does the 18th fall on) or “Do I have any appointments on the 6th?” or any practical question I need answered as such, one click, one view…and I’m out. Simple as. Highly recommend this. Note: there is no “workflow” this is for viewing purposes only. K.I.S.S. calendar. ### 5/5 — 5 Stars for the App and for its Creator *2022-06-12, version 3.1* I rarely write reviews about apps, but I wanted to share with you my experience with this app. I looked at a lot of apps to turn my phone into a watch and this one by far is the best. However. I would also give at an additional 5 stars for its author. I wrote him some feedback and he has been the best in replying, listening and taking note of my feedback! Bigger companies should take note on how this guy listens and does his best to make material changes to his work to accommodate your observations. Amazing app and great service!!! ### 5/5 — Super! *2021-08-25, version 3.1* Really nice & efficient. Just needs an alarm & it’s a perfect nightstand clock as well. Very well thought out. Might also design it for landscape on an iPad, on which it works as a very large version now. Could grow its functionality for iPad, say, to show an incoming phone call & list contacts &/or tasks, etc. Lots of room to make it a valuable desktop display on iPad. However, it’s perfect as is! Thank you very much. ### 5/5 — Best calendar/clock app *2019-08-21, version 3.1* I love this app because it has everything you need at a glance. I couldn’t find one designed as well as this one. I would had paid more for it... thank you to the individual who designed it. Fantastic job!! ### 5/5 — Retirement Time *2019-07-22, version 3.1* You don’t have to work at a desk to use Work Time. I’m retired and use it wherever I don’t have a clock, and for reminders of my upcoming activities. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2018-11-25, version 3.1* This app is perfect. Use everyday ### 5/5 — Great app! *2017-10-02, version 3.1* I use this app everyday for my work schedule! However ever since iOS 11 came out the app has a weird glitch when clicking on the date. Half the screen gets stuck. Maybe any fix for this? ### 5/5 — Fabulous! *2017-07-21, version 3.1* I've been using this app for two+ years and wouldn't be without it. My hubby and I are in our 70's, each of us with lots of appointments but one car. We both have Work Time and list all appointments in our Calendar APP under a shared "Family" calendar. When making new appointments we always know if there could be a conflict. I'd be lost without Work Time. ### 5/5 — Love it, even if it lacks two features *2017-06-25, version 3.1* Kudos! This is a handy tool and well done. It hasn't been updated in a while so maybe the next version can include 2 features I consider important : the ability to scroll back to see the history (useful to satisfy IRS requirements for contemporaneous records); and the ability to display the calendar for any month (quickly answers the question of what day it is when scheduling future appointments without having to scroll endlessly). ### 5/5 — Awesome App! *2017-05-20, version 3.1* This app is great and has many colour options that would suit most unless you are a picky crybaby that gives a bad review because you don't like the placement of the zero, lol, which by now I hope you know you can fix. If any of the other complainers read the specs you would know this is a calendar app that allows you to input dates, adjust dates, check what's going on for the day and future days (just use the scroll feature) check the weather and provides some serious minimalist eye candy. In the future, reading the specs before you purchase is usually a good idea and complete common sense. Hope that whole $1.99 on your $800 phone didn't break the bank! Nice upgrade with some new themes; still a great app. I'm glad we have a choice about the placement of the zero because IMO it looks ridiculous when removed. Awesome app. I don't have any problem finding the app icon to address that comment; its new and in the same place it has been, right at the bottom amongst my most used. *Edit: really only to appeal the the developer to please keep up all of his apps, especially both both Work Times, for the phone, HD for iPad as they are still the best all in one, calendar, clock and weather app. Love Time, still best the best countdown and still use Nite Time as well. I'd be willing to pay for an update or new features and a Mac version would be super awesome! * As for some of these reviews: people, I hope you finally figured out how to press that "i" info button in the corner, to customize the app in the way you wanted :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
