Calalarm Calendar

I’ve been a daily user of v1 and v2 since the beginning (v2 since 2014). V2 was very complete, user interface was great, very quick to modify events, alerts, etc… top notch app. V3 has been rewritten, and as of September 23, with iOS 17 just released, it has still some minor bugs... The v2 was a top product, and the only one on the App Store to offer the nag function… Can’t wait to see what’s coming next on v3!!

I really used to like this app. Now with the advent of ads that appear within my calendar and clog up the month at a glance view (So all I see is ads). I’ve just about had it with this app.

Without warning, this company disabled the old version, a product I had paid for. They rendered the old app useless and forced users to upgrade to a new version that you must pay for. This is unconscionable and ruthless behavior. There is not another product like this, so you have no choice but to pay their ransom, to continue using the product. I do not like companies like this! This is shameful!

Only seems to chime alerts at random. Doesn’t stay in sync like Fantastical or other calendar apps.

V-3 was a wonderful replacement for V-2. As an older, sometimes confused, computer user, V-3 is a continuing improvement in organization and use to V-2. I give a 5+++ to the support staff. They are accurate with their advice and patient for those who go through computer appts in a fog. nnn

A Great App! It adds intuitive features that are lacking in the native Apple Calendar. This added functionality is more in tune with how one’s brain works when organizing & updating events: either manually, on a basic paper calendar or organizer system (like:”At A Glance”),or via a smartphone or computer. The ability to customize the settings makes all the difference. Instead of having to conform to the limitations of ICal or Outlook, you can tailor Calalarm’s settings to plan/organize & update as you do. BONUS POINTS: The ability to assign unique reminder sounds independent of ICal.

I have used the app for approximately 7 yrs now. It has kept me on task and kept down the stress level with the reminders. Especially useful in keeping track of expiration dates for zero interest offers and other financial deadlines.

Whenever Apple has an iOS update, they mess up app notifications. That’s when I realize that I depend on CalAlarm, its snoozes, alerts, and “move” function. (I’ve used this app since I switched to an iPhone and found that its calendar stunk.) Recently, I tried other calendar apps, to see if they improved—other calendar apps were interesting, prettier, or more popular. CalAlarm is still reliable, provides a diversity of alerts, provides customizable alerts, and you can see the appointments. Druthers: 1) Would like to see integration of tasks into CalAlarm; 2) better visibility of the “today“ date on the monthly display; and 3) new alerts; 4) the ability to make an appointment by touching a future date (currently, it defaults to the current date when making a new appointment). Make sure your iPhone is updated to prevent possible alert problems. If there’s a problem and you contact support, they will provide the solution. Thank you, Devart

As many have stated, V2 was rock solid. But ever since the move to V3 this app has been a buggy mess. Events don’t stay snoozed or they don’t get dismissed sometimes. It’s happening almost daily now and I would have definitely moved on already if there was another app like this but from what I can tell it’s the only one.

I have been using this app for several years. I keep birthdays, meditation times, Dr appointments, whatever in it.
