★★★★★ "Used to be 4 star. They've introduced really loud adverts to try and push you to spend a whopping £35 a year!!! For a calendar app. My advice would be to use another one that's now less annoying. Shame. Was good before. They got greedy." - Al Dervin

I love this app. it's really awesome. They have made some great UI changes lately plus some updates to shared calendars that are really helpful. However, this app is now using your data to train AI as of April 16th 2026. One star is for allowing AI to steal my data, train on my data, and for allowing users to use AI within the app. It's very simple, that is not ethical handling of data and now I have to find a different app.
GARBAGE!!! After 7 years of using this app, every update just puts more intrusive ads and forces you to have the Google Play Store active. It consumes too much battery that way, and I can only imagine how much data it is sending to google at my expense.
getting a runaround trying to change my password. and it always says something like the password link expired.
REALLY ANNOYING THAT NOW THERE ARE LOUD ADVERTS SO YOU OPEN YOUR CALENDAR IN THE OFFICE OR RESTAURANT AND SOME OBNOXIOUS ADVERT STARTS PLAYING LOUDLY
This app used to work great, but then they updated it and now it sucks.
Stopped working a few months ago. Can't see anything my wife adds after a reinstall.
doesn't work
The only way to get rid of ads is to buy a recurring subscription. Enough said. March 2026 - after the recent update, app crashes/won't open on cellular data. Now it only opens when I'm on Wi-Fi.
weird app why does it exist
complicated and just trash DONT USE
Great alternative to google calendar. Both me and my girlfriend made the move over and its a great app, very user friendly but I draw the line when adverts start playing out loud. This isn't Clash of Clans.
Things were better for a while recently but after the last update once again they moved the memos to a really obscure place so I have to make a lot of extra clicks to get to it, and filled the app bar with useless features. The only things we use the app for is shared calendars and shopping lists so it's really not straightforward for us to do half of those things now.
Won't sync, won't delete events, just frustrating
Used to be 4 star. They've introduced really loud adverts to try and push you to spend a whopping £35 a year!!! For a calendar app. My advice would be to use another one that's now less annoying. Shame. Was good before. They got greedy.
just got this app how do I change the start of the week to Monday please?
Update Rating Mac 2025 2⭐ They added video ads. Everytime I open my calendar to view, the video ads will turn on and THE AUDIO will play aloud. U can click to mute, but when you leave the Date page and go to another Date, the video WITH AUDIO will play aloud again. Rated Apr 2023 5⭐ It is very easy to use and addresses my needs - I needed to see all my family members' programs in 1 calendar to see if any clash; and able to plan our family holidays coz my husband is really difficult to catch.
The app is pretty useful. Until they "upgrade" it. Then the way you access the memos almost always changes. This is typically a temporary annoyance because usually we can figure out what they did, but not this time. I need those memos, but no matter what I click on, I can't find them. We found them, but the directions you gave aren't accurate. Maybe that's how you get to them on an iPhone. Please put the memos back on the first screen that comes up when the app is opened in the next update.
This app is great for us as a family needing a shared calender - it used to be excellent, but recently the adverts have become incredibly loud and obtrusive, causing me to drop my rating from 5 stars to 2
