Calendars 5 by Readdle App Reviews

I find the monthly display very useful and also like the ease of entering appt in free text. It is faster than standard fill in the field approach

Ive been using it for years and its a great replacement for the Calendar app. I love being able to read the names of my events at a glance and dragging an event to a new day.

I use this app as my extra brain to keep track of my scheduling. I not only track my events but also my families and many times it has saved me from double booking! Unfortunately this week the app started to replicate a recurring event each time I opened it! I cant get rid of the event and the Calendar 5 support staff havent provided any solution that works. There doesnt seem to be a default setting either! On my own I did discover the reason why I wasnt able to delete the event. There is a master calendar that apparently comes with Apple products that I dont use. I was under the impression I this app would be in control since I put the event into it, but evidentially not. The problem was compounded by Readle customer support who kept referring to a cloud calendar!

I switched to Calendars 5 about a year ago and Ive never looked back. The syncing between iCal on all platforms makes it incredibly easy to keep up with everything no matter where you add new events, but its much easier to add new events in C5. The use of actual language entries is super handy as well. Love this app.

To affirm what many others have said, Im running two other similar apps side-by-side for comparison. With a formal, long-standing diagnosis for ADD, I need to effectively manage the symptoms in a variety of ways; including tricks/tools that are simple, reliable and effective by "automatically" increasing self-awareness, focus, thinking/doing in a more linear fashion - in other words, taking ownership and responsibility to manage the symptoms by putting as much as I can on "reminder lists" that I can trust; rather than my monkey mind. Thus, the reason for test-driving 3 apps. Ive found the Readdle app best for me because of its wide, one-stop shopping approach and it is just more visually appealing.

It took a minute to figure out all of the features and the differences between the iPad version and the iTouch/iPhone version, but now that I have been using it for a few weeks, I am loving it! Great app and it syncs easily to my other calendars and task/reminder apps.

Way better than the default calendar and easier to manage as well as navigate.

This has got to be the best, most user friendly and integrating app. I have ever used... Rene

It works very well. I would like to have control over the holidays but otherwise I really like it.

Excellent. Well worth the few bucks to purchase. Does everything flawlessly and easily. I love this app and use it daily

This is the only one I use now. The simplicity of this calendar and the week view option makes this the best hands down!!
