It has ads now but not obnoxiously disruptive ones. I actually paid for this app before but it kept asking me to buy it after I already had so I just ignored those prompts. This newer version has all the great features from the older version...easy to see date boxes...easy to set reminders...and it's a pro privacy company.

I love this app! It helps me stay organized and has so many custimizable features. Some of them are color coded presets for events ( I have concerts, birthdays, doctor appointments and to-do), you can set a custom reminder (I usually set it 90 days in advance for taking off work), and it's very easy to use. It is the best app I use for productivity

Simple and easy to use. Has a full month calenders widget that goes right on the phone screen. Only 2 things can make this app better. 1 is a way to mark a bunch of days all at once for the same type of event, like a work schedule. The other is being able to get rid of ads without needing a subscription to the app. Otherwise, this one is better and easier to use than the rest of calenders apps I've tried to use, which is rather a lot. 5 stars easily!

I had the free version of this calendar for a long time on my phone, it was great! However, the new mandatory paid version put a stop to this otherwise wonderful calendar. Prior to this change it was an easy five star. Unfortunately, looking at the new paid version, it's not worth paying the extra for. I'm moving on to a new free non-Google calendar.

Excellent & easy to use app...IS WHAT I USED TO SAY‼️ However, after this recent FORCED "free trial", the reverse has happened‼️ It definitely is no longer "easy to use", & after reviewing the nightmares other users are experiencing after losing important information, "excellent" is not the term that comes to mind. I truly enjoyed & trusted using your calendar app...Perhaps, when you've sorted all this out, I'll be able to feel that way again.✌️

Find it despicable. Locking ppl out of an app that comes pre-installed. After saving everything to this calendar, you can't access unless you buy the 'new' one. Set up to give no choice, except to switch to their "pro-version". (Complete lemon) Then there's the responses from the developer. Always the same thing over and over. Slight variations but, "oh come on, not too much, can get full refund (in 2 hours)or refund anytime"(yeah sure). Disgusting,. Used car salesman, more trustworthy.

I loved this app and have used it for years. It was nice to have a truly simple calendar app. The latest version of this calendar forces a trial for a pro version of the app. I don't mind the $2 charge for it, but I do not like that there was no warning or communication before pushing this on the users. I exported my events and have moved to a new app that is more trustworthy.

New forced update deletes all your calender info. Have my whole life saved on my calender, as many professional adults. This recent update forces you to try the 14-day trial and either erases all your previous calender info, or is showing you a new interface for the trial, not sure. Either way, right now I don't have any of my saved dates and appointments, birthdays, anniversaries, notes, etc. Immediately going to use Google calendar because I no longer believe this app saves dates reliably.

App updated to a paid version without notice. If you select "later" on the update screen it closes the app. The developers also give the same formula response to everyone complaining about the change without actually addressing their frustrations. I used this app BECAUSE it didn't have a lot of features and was very straightforward. If I wanted features (for free) I'd use Google Calendar.

It was ok at first. Very average, nothing extraordinary at all. THEN it stopped reminding me of my events. I had that reminder set for an hour before the event. The reminders popped up only AFTER I opened the app hours later. Absolutely useless! NOW they want me to PAY for this useless app? Total waste of money. I'll go download another FREE calendar that will actually WORK. There are so many to choose from!
