FamilyWall: Family Organizer

I love this app. It’s helps me and my very disorganized husband stay in sync. The only thing I have issues with is the location tracker. It doesn’t seem to be accurate a lot of the time. For instance, the other day it said my husband was still an hour away when he was walking in the door. I would love to see the locator updated to be live and accurate. And would also love to see family wall come out with physical trackers—kind of like an AirTag or Life360 with tiles. We have a young child that goes to daycare in the middle of a downtown city. I always worry about when he gets a little older, gets brave, wonders off, or is involved with a kidnapping (I know that will probably never happen, but you never know in this day and age). Other than that, we love this app.

I love the calendaring, scheduling, meal planning, etc. My only complaint is that the small thumbnail calendar widget for iOS lock screens shows “No events”, even for days when the calendar is full of events. I suspect this is a bug, and one I hope can be fixed soon.

I bought the premium for my family. I got charged, but the app never updated to the premium version. I like the app it has some great features but the fact that I got charged and never received what I paid for is an issue for me. UPDATE: I reached out to apple for a refund and once that came thru I repurchased the premium. With the premium the features that you get are great. So I’m upgrading my stars from 1-4. The original purchase might just have been a glitch.

This app would be very useful if it's features actually worked. Unfortunately that is not the case. I have had trouble with many of the functions such as making myself a participant. There is no way to contact a company with trouble sitting questions, and the articles available are very limited. When I finally became frustrated enough to delete my account out would not allow me to. Instead it just provided an error message each time I went into setting this manage my subscription.

I love this app soooo much. It has organized me and my husbands life. I ONLY wish for it to have a cleaning schedule section where I can list chores for the both of us to complete.

It’s amazing for sharing!

I love it but there are some bugs. I often have events deleted for no apparent reason, they are just gone. I’d also love an option to delete previously used events from the recommended list when you’re entering an event. There are things I entered 1 time a year ago that always pop up rather than things I’ve entered 100 times.

Edit*** The map issues I was having previously are all smoothed out I’ve noticed as of today (fingers crossed it keeps working!) and I truly couldn’t ask for more. This is still my absolute favorite app for my busy family. I’d be lost without it!!!! This is absolutely my favorite app. I can put all of my family’s appointments and activities on the calendar to keep us organized. The shared to do lists are amazing for everything from daily tasks to password lists, grocery lists and assigning chores. I put all my favorite recipes in the recipe box and can quickly pick meals for the week and add them to our meal plan, plus add the ingredients to our shopping list and I check the stuff we already have on hand. The map feature might be my favorite for keeping track of my loved ones especially with the SOS feature however it rarely works. I love how customizable it is unlike another paid app I use in that I can choose who I want to share my location with, for how long and I can get notifications when they come and go from saved locations. Unfortunately that map hasn’t been locating my loved ones or sending the notifications any longer despite refreshing, resetting permissions and reinstalling the app. I would HAPPILY pay a much higher premium fee for this to be corrected and to be able to use this app for all our needs. Overall still my favorite app and I literally use it multiple times a day. Just holding out for the map to be updated in a way that the features function properly.

We’ve used this app for over a year but it’s suddenly updated and all we get when we open it are blank icons. It’s been rendered useless which is really disappointing because my family does really love this app.
