im a premium user but can't get help
April 2026 The app is not synchronizing with my resident calendar. causing items not to be listed in the jorte calendar. Design used to say black and red. As in black background, red letters. Now it's just black with white letters. The function boxes are white so you can't see the letters. Where is the letter color option??

Occasionally deletes all of your entries. I now have a completely empty calendar for the second time. Some events only populate temporarily, but then the details disappear, and you're left with a date marker with no information.
I've used Jorte for years, loved it, and have everything in it. I don't sync it because I prefer all info stay on my phone, not on the interweb. Lately NOTIFICATIONS ARE SHOWING UP 24 HOURS LATER!!! ...AFTER THE EVENTS HAVE PASSED!!!! I haven't time or patience to figure out! EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED!!! I NEED A REPLACEMENT ASAP!!! This just started within the last couple months! It's getting worse! MISSED A VERY IMPORTANT MTG yesterday because of this and it's NOT THE FIRST!!!!!
Used Jorte for years without issues. On this phone (Realme GT6) started having startup issues. Sometimes it opens fine. other times I click on a calendar widget - nothing happens. Then try opening as an app, hangs with just the white background. kill the app, try again, no luck, still hangs. Basically unusable. Update: reinstalled as per the developer's suggestion. Still the same. Sometimes it starts fine and works for a bit. Several days later, I can't start it at all - just hangs
I can not synch my Samsung Phone Calendar to my Samsung Tablet Calendar. I've sent 3 emails but no helpful suggestions were given.
new update I have uninstalled and reinstalled as you have requested has done no good it is still removing itself from my desktop I have purchased sisters in the past and will not purchase this anymore if this keeps up since you've done the last update it started doing this and I don't like that widget will not do me any good if I can't utilize it when I need it immediate response is required and would be appreciated
I rely A LOT on the agenda widget. First, the widget agenda is all bunched together, that i have to find what I have going that day and second, the widget doesn't scroll! What you see, is all the info you're going to see! Not satisfied with the widget AT ALL!!
I had really liked the jort calendar, but the ads they put are getting on my nerves! I'm female and don't need to see a bunch of scantily clad girls! It's sickens me that when it goes I try to click on something to close an X it just keeps going to something else. If you're insisting on putting ads at least make it so that the stupid things can be closed!
whats the point of setting an alert when it comes in 24hrs later...........app used to be helpful seriously???? erm, really should I switch it on/off too! its never in dnd mode.
Remove lunar calendar
All of a sudden, all my already-entered events spontaneously went from 1 day to 2. Choosing "All Day" fixes it but I can't do that for every event that exists!! And, the date entered doesn't match the date it is appearing on the calendar. Off by a day.
great, been using for years. widget started disappearing randomly your suggestion does nothing to help
not suitable for india
switching from easy settings to advanced settings doesn't do anything.
After last update Reminder no longer works, I use this a lot and have used this calendar for years but will have to delete and download a Planner if I can't get it to work again
I've used Jorte for years and loved it until now. I got a new phone and ALL my information is gone! Ever single past, present, future and recurring appointments are gone. HELP! I can't find help anywhere
did not like. not easy to use.
4.5 Stars! I've been using the Jorte calendar for a long time and continue to be impressed with its capabilities. Recently, the app started randomly closing, but I'm hopeful that today's update will fix that bug. Jorte is at the top of the calendar game with the customization of icons, backgrounds, and overall design that it offers; it truly is unparalleled. There are some things that the developer can do to improve the app. Simplify the menus--so many options make it confusing and overwhelming
please stop the inaproptate adds!!!!!!!
I have shared a calendar with my wife for several years. I am the owner, my wife is the administrator. For about a month now, everything that I enter in the calendar as the owner has been synchronized and updated for my wife, but not the other way around. If my wife enters something, I simply don't get it synchronized and displayed. What have you done? Are you currently having problems synchronizing shared calendars? Your app is just useless like this.
Most recent update broke something. Single day entries are duplicating or stretching over multiple days. Clearing cache doesn't help.
I've used this calendar for years but it appears to be broken now. All of a sudden it stopped giving notifications. I tried everything. Then un-installed reinstalled it to try and fix it. Now when you go to pick the default calendar, there are no options in there so it will no longer even show my Google calendar in the widget. Emailed support but no response.
Notifications are still not coming on time, they are now 6 hours late! It might be time for me to abandon this calendar after 10+ years. I don't know why but every update makes it worse. I have notifications as a priority for this app.
I paid for a subscription and it keeps telling me I'm not subscribed! I'm not paying again 😒
I used to love this calendar, but now it is terrible. They never update the themes/icons/wallpapers (which is the main reason I preferred this app). When they do add something, it isn't universal. It is only in their language. I don't see a point in subscribing anymore. I am going to cancel after years of using this. Such a disappointment!
After it was fixed for a few months, the disappearing widget bug has returned in the most recent update (and seems worse than before). And as before, battery optimisation settings have no effect on the widget's disappearance, pressing on the invisible widget is the only way to bring it back (until it disappears again)
Uninstalling Due to inappropriate Ads. I've used Jorte for YEARS on many phones. Was the best calendar widget. But now with constant misleading ads pretending to show nudity, you've lost a very long time user.
was AMAZING for years and years, but all of the sudden (last few months) I've notice syncing issues. upon trying to access my jorte acct on the webpage, the domain is not accessible. something is going on. I'm see the same issues others are facing. This was a great service for such a long span. the lack of communication or details of why there's service interruption/issues is ridiculous. EDIT: "Access blocked: Jorte PF Cloud's request does not comply with Google's policies. "
Been using the app for many years now, thought to upgrade to premium so i can export the files in csv and to my surprise there's no export date/file option anymore 😅
Since the recent updates now there are ads running across the bottom of my calendar. Hate this new version and it needs to go away or I will be forced to uninstall it and just use my Google calendar. Have use Jorte for years now and want to continue without these annoying ads. I decided after this review to continue using Jorte and see if it would be better, ads got better but now it will not sync everything from my Google calendar into my jorte calendar no matter what I do. It only syncs parts.
I really luv this calendar, but I'm so frustrated because I have been trying to purchase premium for weeks now, I've literally spent hours trying to buy it,&I do mean hours, so I've given up now, disappointed.
got Jorte for years and paid premium for those cartoon characters theme and icon pack. without notice all the cartoon character themes and icons I got were no where found in the app. it's just a basic calendar app now.
app works, it's just that when creating new events, the offered icons or emojis are all white people. I can't seem to change this in the settings, so I dont utilize them as much as I'd like to. We ALL love emojis... Also, along with creating an event with words, I wish I could write, draw, or add a personal photo to go along with the event.
how can I put it on my homescreen
just to get push notificatio u hv to pay sunbscription.no way! uninstalling.u wasted so much of my time.i wanna refund
Being able to take pictures is worth it but still needs a better UI. The ads make it difficult to use < sadly
