How is it possible to release a calendar app that isn’t able to edit calendar events from non-app-based existing calendars? This is a wild lack of functionality that I don’t think I’ve ever seen from a calendar app and essentially makes this a useless product for anyone on the google workspace, Apple calendar, or other provider’s email services looking for an all-in-one manager. Really disappointing and unusable until this major feature hole is addressed.
If you are familiar with products from 37signals (creator of Hey email) you know they improve their products with time, and have thoughtful iterations/updates. Take the time to learn all the features, use it for a while, and you might just be surprised you prefer the “Hey way” of doing things. If not, there are plenty of other SaaS products doing the same thing as every other SaaS product.
Like email I used to hate looking at my Apple calendar. This is a fresh and useful remix on the function of a calendar.
Hey email is amazing so I expected the calendar to be as well. But it is not. It is bug ridden and feature poor. It is very pretty, but unusable for real life in its current form. Some examples: 1. Syncing external calendars has been broken since release. Imperative for the people who use Siri to add to their calendar. 2. There is no month/year view in the app. I have to open my iPhone calendar if I want to answer simple questions like “what day of the week is August 10th?” 3. There is no search so the calendar cannot answer more simple questions like “when is my doctor appointment?” 4. The thing that passes for a “to do” function cuts off the text at 25 characters and there is no way to see the rest. 5. The “to do” thing has no way to set dates, times, reminders etc. you just have to keep looking at it to hope you don’t miss anything. 6. Recurring reminders are at the 2010 stage where you can only recur daily, weekly, monthly, yearly. Weekdays, or every other week. I think every other calendar I’ve used in the past decade has the ability to recur on specific month days (like the third Tuesday each month, or the first Sunday in May). If future updates address these issues I will change my rating.
Hey Calendar isn’t just a Calendar, it’s a life management tool. Fantastic app!
Wonderfully different take on what a calendar can be without any of the fluff.
🚀 I’m only one day into the iOS app and about a week into using the calendar in general, but I’m loving the new spin on calendering. I've tried habit trackers before, but they never stuck, Hey, I’m using it as I’m in my calendar daily. Two feature requests: either allow to add a private goal to Hey, or share Hey with gCal, now I need to move between both for work, and week numbers in the weekly view would be great. Keep it up.
