ICalendar for Negative User Reviews
✓ Was my fav calendar appI’ve been using this app for so many years. No matter which one I tried to compare this was still my go-to, mainly because it automatically brought in my reminders which I use a lot, plus the ability to use various colours to sort & seeing that full week on 1 screen “with reminders” to get full picture of my weeks. Also I’ve had to contact help desk before & they did reply assisting me which was appreciated. Now suddenly they want money to bring in the reminders??? Now you’re like the many other apps that I tested & found useless. Sad it’s come to this. I feel lost. It was my fav! 💔.Version: 5.2.2
✓ Needs more optimization (its still slow)On the surface it looks ok, but it's very slow when not using day view. I'd recommend using Agenda (another app) until they fix the performance issues. It's got potential though..Version: 2.6
✓ Awesome appUpdate : just dropped a star, pop up keeps asking me to rate the app when I have already given a review. Took days to find this app - extremely happy, does everything I want it to and works flawlessly. Help for the app is both fast and professional (great customer service) One thing I would like to change though is the ability to drag and drop an event.... Would like a switch to toggle between on and off, as it is too easy to change an event time without you realising it changed,,, then again my hand shakes so I notice this more :-) Will change the review if this is addressed in an update :).Version: 4.4.2
✓ Needs a few common sense improvementsWhen adding an event the event box/window jumps around when changing from writing the name of the event to all other options of planning the event. This is extremely annoying when you are in a hurry (not trying to admire the bounce around cool graphics of transitions). Also, it would be nice to view the last week of a month & the first week of the next month together (not be forced to only look at the weeks in one month at a time). These changes would be highly recommended to the developers. But other than that, it’s a pretty good calendar app. There’s probably better ones out there but good enough to use..Version: 5.1
✓ CrapIt kept closing down don't waste your money.Version: 1.2.2
✓ Great for keeping on schedule with college assignmentsThis saved me when I was trying to make sure I didn’t miss any assignments my last 2 years of college. I haven’t had to use this for a few years after that. But I need to used it today to make sure I did a couple tasks today. I forgot to put a time on them after I had already saved them but it kept glitching and taking me back to the previous screen. Also, I remember that this didn't sync at all with Google Calendar which would’ve saved me a lot of manual labor of having to enter my assignments from the syllabus. Other than that this is a solid app to use for reminders and settings tasks and color coding them for each class like I needed..Version: 5.5.1
✓ DisappointedI was excited to get iCalendar because of the customizable snooze function. When receiving a Calendar notification I have the option to snooze for minutes or hours. I find that very useful. But I found a major limitation. iCalendar does not run a background task on the iPhone. This means if you add an event to your calendar on Google from your computer it will not sync with iCalendar until you use your iPhone to actually view the calendar. So I would add events to my Google Calendar from my computer and not receive any notifications on my iPhone. Just having icalendar open but not displayed as the active app on my phone does not cause the calendars to sync If you schedule all of your calendar events using your iPhone then it should work fine, but if you're like me, working from the desktop all day and scheduling events from there, you won't get event notifications without opening the phone app to cause it to sync. I did exchange a few emails with Symfonie customer service. They were patient and helpful but acknowledged the limitations of the app..Version: 5.0.1
✓ All hypeI downloaded the app because I thought it would be better then the standard app. Well it some ways the standard app is better. Another drawback is that the app requires it’s users to spend money on things the standard calendar app does already for free. Only real unique feature is its ability to customize repeating events and being able to move them. Really wish they had a trial subscription and set of forcing you to pay 399 right off the bat. Had I been able to try it I would’ve never subscribed to the app.Version: 5.1
✓ Great until it wasn’tI’ve been using this for our family calendar for years - we’ve all loved the ease of use, ability to copy and paste multiple times, but especially the custom color coding. I have four people’s schedules to coordinate and a business on top. Color coding everything was paramount. I had custom colors set for all the calendars. After this last update I’m locked into a list of preset colors for some reason. I can’t use my previous colors or even set favorite colors - it’s just a small palate and that’s it. I also can’t change from local calendar to google calendar once an appt is saved. This is particularly difficult since it added “local” calendar with the same name as my family calendar - I ended up putting several appts in under the local calendar. When I went in to change it to the correct google calendar, it would only show local calendars as options for me to switch it to. What was a great app needs serious work to get it back to great again..Version: 5.0.1
✓ Still a long way from replacing a FilofaxAlthough quite simple and elegant in some ways it is not really all that different from many other apps aiming to do the same. The big drawback is that it doesn't remotely match the versatility and practicality of the good old Filofax, and is immensely cumbersome to operate by comparison. Back to the drawing board!.Version: 4.5
✓ Deletes future events!!Rubbish app! Deletes future appointments and events! For no reason! Has done this to me twice now! I am livid.Version: 5.0.1
✓ I don't like this app at all. Please refund my moneyPlease refund my money. I am not enjoying this app at all..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Lost all appointments!So upset!! I Used to love it but with the recent Apple update all my appointments and history dissapeared!!! Hope there’s a fix to restore it??.Version: 5.5.3
✓ Used to LOVE This App!I have used this calendar app for many years. It has always been a 5-star app! I use it on both my iPhone and iPad. Since one of the recent updates however, I can no longer edit the calendar events on my iPad, only on my iPhone. For instance, if I change a time on the event, it does not allow me to save the edit. This is something I’ve noticed over the past couple of months. I thought it was because I needed to update to iOS 16, which I did just recently. However, that has made no difference. Please fix this app!! I rely on this calendar to keep all of my daily things to do in order..Version: 5.5.1
✓ Don’t LikeIt’s changed - can’t set your own calendar color Also after putting in the info if changed, the color of the entry goes back to that horrible yellow color. Also what ever you put in the subject line it’s never complete when you go into full month view. You have to go back into the entry & enter the rest yet again then select the color yet again to keep it from the default color. Liked it much better before all the changes..Version: 5.3.1
✓ Bug not fixedWhen sharing invite monthly view gets changed to a day out, ie Saturday 17 June becomes 16 June. Daily, weekly and yearly are unaffected..Version: 5.5.2
✓ Poor synchingThis is a very useful app made very frustrating by the fact it doesn't synch properly between my iPad and iPhone. I constantly have to compare the 2 calendars to see they are in synch. Usually, they aren't..Version: 3.9
✓ Native calendar is betterI dont know why this company made this. The only way to add an appointment is to use the "+" button and spend the next 5 mins swipingi g in times instead of tapping and holding on the time you want. It takes too long when you're on the phone with a client Does not recognise multiple calendars..Version: 1.2.2
✓ SyncUnable to sync seamless between devices. It seams that all purchases have to be repurchased on each device. Calendars don't synced properly..Version: 4.4.4
✓ So mad!!!Have had this calendar for years and loved it. But after the latest update, all my inputs into the calendar (work schedule, birthdays, etc) all disappeared!!! Now I don't know when I've worked or what my upcoming schedule is. I have to find and re-input all the data!! And if I have to do that, then I'm doing it on a new app that won't screw me over!!!!!.Version: 5.0
✓ RealtorI used this app for 2-3 years not bad but now they auto assign Day / phone number and address really cause me a lot of trouble Today December 21 2017 I type “Lunch at golden mark” at 1pm the calendar auto assign the golden to Location then the calendar look like this “Lunch at mark”. Golden mark is the full name of the restaurant can you show me how to stop this auto action. Pls advise.Version: 5.1
✓ BugI love this app! Unfortunately I cannot open any event this morning to change or modify. Very frustrating!.Version: 5.1
✓ Waste of 69pBought without reading reviews!! Full of bugs, can't edit appointments once they're in the Calendar and nothing additional to native calendar on device. Not sure how this got onto the app store. Save your money, only wish I could get mine back. Deleted within an hour of downloading, not worth the storage space..Version: 2.9
✓ If bugs were fixed it would be a fantastic appAbility to choose colours from a palette is great, as is overall presentation. However, I cannot add or edit events, which makes this app somewhat useless. I presume this is some sort of bug and I suggest the developers fix this quickly otherwise what has the potential to be a wonderful app will be side-lined forever. A "year view" would also be greatly appreciated. I'm on an iPad2 with the latest software..Version: 2.9
✓ No Good AnymoreI used this app for many years but a couple of times recently it has lost all my shifts for work which is really annoying. I ticked every calendar but still it doesn't show my shifts. I am not going to put 18 weeks of shifts in again and l can't risk it doing it again, so l can no longer use it. I tried contacting support but was unable. It's a shame because before this l enjoyed using it mainly due to the colour coding..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Little changes make a big difference!Really like the new layout of creating an appointment, and the new logo, however when creating an appointment the old style would change the colour of the selected calendar appointment automatically. The new version it allows you to choose the selected calendar, however doesn't update the colour accordingly!! Very annoying when working with multiple calendars!.Version: 4.0
✓ Think I'm moving onWas a 4 and 5 star app but no longer. I used this app for years and liked it. I don't like the new icon, however, changing the dates to dots. (One of the reasons I preferred this over Apple's is because my entries show up with their name/title instead of a dot so why would I want dots on this icon.) The dots wouldn't be a deal-breaker on their own but I'm also tired of the nickel-and-diming for features. This is a paid app for pete's sake, and it is a calendar app--you have to pay extra for US holidays? That is ridiculous. Thank goodness I just have them transfer from the native app. I can see using IAPs for certain features but holidays isn't one. And now they've added another IAP for locations. If this was a 99-cent app it might make sense but it costs a good bit more than 0.99. I also now have another calendar app that does a better job of displaying events in month mode so looks like I'll start using that one instead. I've always liked the clean look of this app but the recent changes that I don't like and the continual addition of features that cost extra, some of which should absolutely be included in the base PAID app, are driving me away..Version: 5.2.1
✓ CrashingI loved this app and used it all the time I updated it yesterday now it won't work. Everytime I try to open it it shuts off I'm very upset.Version: 2.5
✓ Luv it, but...Luv the app! Much better than default default Apple calendar. However, won't sync between iPad and iPhone (even after working through vendor's help suggestions) this makes it useless for me..Version: 4.5
✓ Poor updateI will not get into the issues I’m having with this calendar because there are too many to name. It used to be much easier to use but since the latest update the ease of use is now very time consuming. I have no idea what happened but it takes me longer to fix the mistakes iCalendar makes than it does to create an event. I sincerely regret the update! Been using for years..Version: 5.3.2
✓ Really annoyedI used to LOVE this app!! I recommend it to soo many people!! Unfortunately the whole thing got scrambled after the last update! None of my temples were working so I had to create new ones. All the monthly and yearly events I had as repeats are all in the same color so my whole calendar is purple. I am really big on color coding so this really annoys me. I have to go in manually to change all the event colors one by one. It’s not time efficient. And when I use the “all day” button it marks it as 2 days on my calendar. I have tried for a while to adjust to this but idk how much longer I’m gonna be able to tolerate it. I want it to go back to when I loved it!!!.Version: 5.5.3
✓ Awfull interfaceBought this app hoping for a decent UI with Google calendar but sadly disappointed. Will definitely be uninstalling and trying to work out how to get my 69p back from Apple. Will be uninstalling immediately. Worse app downloaded to my iPad 3 since I bought it a month ago.Version: 2.0
✓ Does not deliverI bought this app in order to display a calendar month with week numbers. An essntial feature for business I thought, but one this app does not deliver - nor for that matter does the standard defualt Apple calendar app. Therefore my quest for a suitable app continues. Also disappointed that you cannot zoom in when the Month mode is selected. Result - I cannot see myself using iCalendar..Version: 3.8.1
✓ Just okIt's ok.. Not worth the money tho.. Any other free app can do the same thing. I don't like how the text is so big in the month view you can't see all of the list.. Meh.. Dissatisfied I spent money on it.Version: 4.4.1
✓ Middling app except for one featureICalendar has got really cool 'visible range' filtering (i.e., display only those events that occur between a chosen start hour and a chosen end hour) but otherwise the app is middling. Pricing is good (no subscription!) but the pricepoint is high (unless you care for visible-range filtering, in which case the app is an excellent value)... Developers say in release notes 'we respond to every email we receive' but that's nonsense; I've sent numerous emails and have not ever heard back... Do you care for visible-range filtering? If so then you'll like iCalendar, if not then probably you won't..Version: 5.4
✓ Good conceptLooks pretty good, but the event loading is laggy! Please fix it so it loads automatically:) event entering screen could also be changed to look like rest of app (same font/style). The custom colours for events is a great concept though!.Version: 2.3
✓ Doesn’t work anymoreEvent notifications suddenly became hit and miss a couple of months ago, including brand new and old repeating events. Tried re downloading a few times, creating new events, checking settings. Some events had no sound, but now most events give no notification whatsoever. It’s rubbish and it used to be great. No update in six months. I’m unsubscribing from paid calendars and deleting the app..Version: 5.2.2
✓ SucksNever works properly!.Version: 5.1.3
✓ Do really I need it ?Not a big difference in this and native calendar App , why I bother downloading it, deleted ..Version: 4.3.1
✓ Crashes constantly!Tried it anyway even though people said not to! Can't use! All it does is crash!.Version: 2.7.1
✓ Slow appSwiping between months is slow and multi-day apps shows the event name on each day in month view as opposed to one name that goes across several days..Version: 2.3
✓ Moving on...I have loved this app for so long, color coding each family members schedule was a huge plus; however, with recent updates I am no longer able to add people to events that I create in my calendar. Being able to do that allowed me to share important things on the family calendar with my husband. I tried to reach out to support a couple of times and I appreciate their effort to try to fix it but it doesn’t seem like it’s fixable at this time..Version: 5.3.2
✓ Hating recent updatesI liked how it would outline today’s date on the monthly view... now the date number has a little circle around it and it’s barely noticeable. Also, if you tap an event to expand it you used to be able to tap anywhere outside the box to close the expanded view.... now no matter where you tap it’s opening & expanding other events. I’m considering other calendars because these 2 things alone really blew it for me.Version: 5.2.1
✓ Outlook not right-DeleteChanges to Outlook don't come through. It relies on the calendar app on the iPhone, which doesn't update if you make a change to an Outlook appointment. If you have outlook appts that change, nothing will update and it will be gibberish. Delete..Version: 4.3.1
✓ Good AppIt's a good app. I wish there was predictive text when adding events to calendar.Version: 4.3.1
✓ Unhappy with changesUntil recently the Outlook calendar was great. Then the display on both Apple devices faded and were illegible. Only option was to uninstall and then download again. Now the colour options I preferred have changed slightly and when first opened it displays only the day rather than the month. Small differences but it’s not as enjoyable as it was..Version: 5.5.2
✓ It is OkIt irritating that when you look at a specific day the calendar goes into a day format as default and does not go back to the monthly view after unless you click a few different buttons to get to it. You would think it would default back to your original setting. Also the app should show the date it is on your home screen without having to open the app..Version: 5.4
✓ Love the app, frustrated by widgetI really love the app, almost everything about it! I've used it for years👍🏻 However, since I started using widgets on my lock screen, I am super disappointed that it doesn't work despite saying it is available👎🏻 Most of my apps are updated every 2 weeks even for the smallest fixes, but nothing to fix widgets from iCalendar? After 2 months, I'm really leaning towards searching for a new cal app...which is super unfortunate bc I truly love it, and don't want to have to reprogram my recurring calendar events🙁.Version: 5.0
✓ I loved this app, but...I loved using this calendar, but after an update it stopped loading on my widget screen. I’ve tried absolutely everything, and it will only ever say “Unable to Load”. It’s infuriating, and causing me to switch to a different calendar. Sadly..Version: 5.1
✓ Colour blockingDisappointed that the latest update has taken away the large blocks of colour and left only a small rectangle. I purchased this app because of it's look only to have it revert to what other apps look like. Even your sample still has the old look. Please bring it back..Version: 3.0.20
✓ Doesn't sync properlyIf you have a google cal entry that runs over more than one day (like a weeks holiday), then it will appear as a single, one day entry. Also, if you add an entry in the app it doesn't sync that entry with google, the sync only works from google into the app. So any entries I make on my iPad can't be seen by google calendar..Version: 2.7.1
✓ Appt Times Don’t MatchUsed this app for years and this has never worked for me. When I’m in the month view and tap on a appointment, the thumbnail opens and it shows me the information but the appointment times are always incorrect. When I open the appointment to edit the times it shows that they are correct. Asked for help and was told to uninstall and reinstall with no effect. Will still use but is frustrating..Version: 5.4
✓ Money grabThis is only a calendar and doesn’t do anything beyond what the free calendars can do. After your initial purchase you have to pay again for the tasks feature, which is what I was looking for in the first place..Version: 5.1.3
