Very glitch lately. I have had it for years, and it has always functioned very well. But in the past several months, it skips around while you are trying to navigate the months. Also, when you choose the date to enter a new event and hit save it puts the event on today's date and you have to go back and correct it. Very frustrating.

WARNING! Jorte has the best display out there--having the event text displayed on the month view is indispensable to me. However, DO NOT SAVE your events to the local "My Calendar" or even to the Jorte Cloud Calendar. Syncing or even exporting Jorte's local calandar is imposible without 3rd party apps. (And many of those won't see that calandar anyway.) Do yourself a favor and, within Jorte, make your Google account calendar your default calendar. This will save you many headaches!

Updated: Never fully got resolution but issues decreased. Still one of the better apps. But I think my fear of relearning has me stuck here. Orig: Calendar widget disappears from screen on galaxy s10. I have to open the app, click on a day, click on an event then close the app in order for th widget to reappear. HELP/FIX!! Ps. I did reach out still awaiting a response and yes checking spam folder.

UPDATE: My issues have been resolved so I am happy now. OLD REVIEW: Got a new phone and the cloud sync doesn't work anymore. Can't download a backup because that's a premium feature now, which is really shady. I've been using this app for years but it's messed up that I can't restore all my events anymore, so I'm deleting this and finding something better.

I know it's been 8 years since I posted that inquiry regarding the possibility of adding a budget to the app, but there's still NO OTHER APP that offers both. Yeah yeah, I know, it's ridiculous that I'm still planning my budget around dates. Guess I'm behind the times. Yep, I'll look into that aforementioned 'behind the times' problem by checking the dates in my calendar app. Believe it or not, NOBODY has 1 app that does both.

Been using this app for years. Now it has issues opening on its own. It won't give a reminder at the correct time. Missed an appointment... time to start looking for a new calendar app. I will miss the widget. I am still trying to use. But what is wrong with all the timezones? One place it says eastern time is -5:00 to GMT, other places in the app it says it is -4:00 and when all is said and done the time on my events are still off by an hour or two.

As someone else noted I've been duplicates in regards to Events. I can create an Event, but when I alter it an additional Event pops up. One is the original and the other is a posted Event with the changes I made. Is anyone else experiencing this? It's an annoyance, but not really a complaint. The app has otherwise served me well for several years with minimal issues.

I have used Jorte as my primary calendar for 5+ years. I have been very happy with it. But a problem cropped up when I switched from an older Moto to a new Samsung phone. It keeps giving the message "Reauthentication required". I am pretty app savvy but can NOT figure out how to do that. BTW, I use the free version w/o subscription.

In my early days of smartphone use, this was the best calendar app on the market. Since then, it's just grown bloated with unneeded and unwanted features and bugs. Most notably, I keep a screen solely devoted to this app's widget and that screen is almost always blank now. The widget just doesn't show up. It's THERE. You can click on it, but you can't see it, or use it for its intended purpose. Notifications are hit-and-miss too. It's just become a hot mess. Shopping for new app.

This is a fantastic calendar app that I had used for over 4 years, BUT since March 1 (right after an update) it crashes on my Pixel 4a-5G. The calendar opens but the next screen touch crashes it. I am so disappointed. Support acts like no one else is having this problem. So I've uninstalled and looking for another calendar. Upgrades s...
