Latest update · v5.0.2
What the developer says changed (the verdict above weighs this against what reviewers report):
Timepage 5 has been a long time cooking, but it's finally here! It introduces Week View, which is the feature you've asked for the most. Getting it right meant thinking carefully about how to make Timepage do more without getting cluttered. We read every email and review, and talked to many of you as we developed it. Alongside Week View, this update brings a refreshed Day View, Month View on iPhone, smarter event entry, new customisation options, and a big ol' list of cool little things. We can't wait to see what you think! A massive thank you for being a Timepage user. We're a small team that loves making it and we appreciate each and every one of you.

Who it's for
Timepage is for users who prioritize a visually appealing, highly customizable calendar interface and appreciate integrated features like weather and travel time R4R8R41. It's suitable for those who find native calendar apps uninspiring and are willing to overlook or tolerate occasional bugs and syncing issues R1R34. It may not be for users who require natural language input, robust search functionality on desktop, or a completely bug-free, seamless cross-device experience, especially given the subscription cost R12R44R86.
Evidence note: The recent reviews skew significantly negative, with a 0.295 recent-negative signal, which is higher than the lifetime rating suggests. Many positive reviews focus on the aesthetic and core functionality, while negative reviews frequently cite persistent bugs, syncing issues, and subscription frustrations. The developer's release notes mention a new Week View and refreshed Day View, which some users appreciate R6R10R34, but many recent complaints contradict claims of improved stability, particularly regarding crashes and widget functionality.

- [R1] Greta app !: Love the experience. Beautiful and far superior to Apple’s. One small suggestion: the live activities window. Needs redesigning. The second by second countdown is unnerving, maybe by the minute is ok, and the time of appointment should be the largest clear time on window. Just saying… i enjoy the app 👍🏻👍🏻
- [R4] The Best Calendar App: I don’t really care for the Apple calendar. I tried the Google Calendar doesn’t do anything for me as far as visually seeing different types of appointments and things. I used to use a calendar that allowed me to customize background pictures and color code appointments, but the price for the sub subscription went up astoundingly high. So I was on the hunt for something new.
- [R6] Love this app!: I find this app to be super helpful and intuitive to use. I am so grateful to have a calendar app that gives me joy every time I open it. The sounds make me especially happy 😄 and the sleek interface and custom colors are so pleasing. I find it much easier to use and add events, etc. on my mobile than on my computer but it's still handy to have the calendar to view on my Mac when I
- [R8] I LOOOOVE Timpage: I could never get into calendars - mostly because the design of GCal / Apple Calendar etc never inspired me to use it more. Timepage is the only calendar app that makes me want to come back and work on my schedule - the design is meticulous and customizable, the built in features are incredibly useful (like what time you need to leave to make your appointment, or what the weathe
- [R3] The Best: I am all about getting apps that are functional. I can’t find any other app that gives me a weather update notification, bill reminder, and my schedule on my watch. This program is 100% worth getting.
- [R22] Keeps Raising The Bar: Just when you think that Timepage couldn’t get any better the team at Bonobo does it again - the latest updates with the all new weather, timeline streamlined changes, etc…all but places Timepage into its own category of time/schedule management - I’ve been using Timepage exclusively for over 10 years now and it continues to the the Gold Standard for this category. Great Job
- [R41] Visually Stunning App: I sometimes have a hard time seeing, but the layout of this app is very clean and sharp. I don’t have issues with “visual clutter” like I do with built in calendar apps. I also love the fact that if I add an event or task to any built in calendar app on iOS or android (Windows, iPadOS or MacOS as well) it automatically syncs and shows up on Timepage. I also like how it has m
- [R9] Can’t live without it: I juggle a business, family life, and caregiving responsibilities. I could not do ANY of it without Timepage. How did the developers know exactly what I needed?! Timepage is my forever scheduler/organizer.
- [R10] Very Nice Refinements in v5: I appreciate the careful thought that went into Timepage 5. It’s still beautiful as always, but is now more elegant and easy to use than before. At a doctor’s office when setting a future appointment with the receptionist, I found it hard to hurriedly swipe between screens to check a date weeks or months ahead. I’d end up in the wrong place. This is resolved with new
- [R16] Easy to Use.: Perfect for my task and appointments, but also offers so much more.
- [R34] Timepage is the BEST❤️: I love the Timepage format and the bold RED colors. The week format is sleek and easy to view. It certainly beats the built in Apple calendar!
- [R40] Good app, but…: I am enjoying this app. I find it better than Apple‘s calendar application, but I wish there were better communication from the people who are directing the future of the software. I am paying money for it and I would love to know what is coming.There are many features that could improve this software.
- [R2] App randomly freezes: I love the app except that it seems in the last few months to randomly freeze and doesn’t load completely, leaving me with a blank screen. Reloading doesn’t seem to keep all info intact.
- [R15] Avoid at all costs!: …Unless you want a calendar app that crashes EVERY time you input an event. I got lured in by how pretty this app is, but it is a non-functioning mess. No natural language input. Crashes consistently. Laughably inept at events that repeat. Big mistake paying for this.
- [R33] THIS APP IS LITERALLY USELESS!: Updated: I HATE THIS APP! I’M DONE! Suddenly, almost nothing works. Can’t add, can’t delete. Why are the creators okay with putting out and CHARGING for something that doesn’t work?!, , , - I can no longer add anything to the calendar from the full view! PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP. The app is useless to me without this!
- [R102] want to actually be able to use it: i’ve been using this app since it first came out, and while I love the idea of it, I find it intermittently unusable bc of the crashing and loading. for this reason, I choose not to update the app but recently accidentally did and now I can’t even use the app without it freezing me out within 4 seconds of loading it. please fix this experience. i’d love to chang
- [R35] Nearly impossible to sync across devices: Spent 2+ hours trying to get Timepage to sync between my Mac and iPhone and NOT default to syncing with google calendar. Got support involved. Eventually gave up and canceled my free trial. Not worth $24.99 for something to take painstaking problem solving on the part of the consumer. In theory, I loved the visual layout and ability to add both events and
- [R36] Syncing not reliable: The TimePage/Actions apps have a LOT to recommend them. I really want to make them my main system, but the syncing just isn’t reliable. I think the problem is maybe more rooted in Actions than Timepage (?), but changes made in the Actions app on a Mac often do not show up in Timepage for Mac (and sometimes not in the corresponding apps on ipad/iphone either). They usually do
- [R53] Gorgeous, rich-feeling app BUT….: No way to search through your events on the macOS version (only mobile) and my experience is that Timepage is almost 12-24 hours out of sync with any changes I’ve recently made (to, for example, my Google Calendars). It’s always warning me it’s time to leave for events I deleted from my calendar long ago. Sometimes, it’ll tell me to leave anywhere from 4 to 24 hou
- [R94] Failure: Since it will not sync between devices...
- [R20] Amazing, but found 2 bugs: This app is my go to for planning my life. It’s beautifully crafted. I have encountered two bugs though. The primary is that my widgets are no longer showing my calendar events. Then when I tried to contact support, the button went nowhere…so I’m posting this here. Hope to see this resolved and hear from support soon
- [R21] Widget no longer works: While I really like the layout, it has become frustrating that once again the widget didn’t work after an update. Not worth the subscription if they can’t get the widget to work as it did when it was affiliated with Moleskin
- [R26] Where are the widgets???: The widgets just randomly disappeared after the latest update, I need them!
- [R39] Issue with weather widget: When clicking on the weather widget on the home screen it doesn't let you swipe out of that window into your schedule not matter what you do, it used to be that you swiped the edge of the screen and it would bring you back but now it just stays on that screen and still detecting touch because it will slide along the temperature forecast. Pls fix this </3
- [R12] No natural language input in 2025: This apps UI is beautiful, that’s about it. With no natural language input in 2025, when other apps have had it for over a decade, this app easily need to go to the sideline. Update: Still no Natural Language feature. And live activities feature is broken. Very disappointed.
- [R205] Pretty. Terrible.: I really love the look of Timepage, it’s one of the nicest looking apps I’ve ever used. At the same time, comparing its functionality to Fantastical, Timepage comes up pretty short. As an example, it doesn’t understand natural language inputs such as “every Friday at 5 pm,” the way Fantastical and Todoist do. It often opens to a day that’s several days in the past instead of
- [R11] This app looks so good but Please make this free 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏: Or at least have ads
- [R27] Stop soliciting!!!!: For years, I loved Timepage. But you need to STOP STOP STOP these popups repeatedly asking me to sign up for your blasted bundle! I do not draw or design, I do not need your sketch app. Nor the reminder app. When I open my calendar, I need it now, right now! I am on w/ a doctor or client, checking my schedule, needing to make an appointment fast! How many times do I have to sa
- [R30] Need subscription now: The UI is great! But you need a subscription to be able to do anything with this app. Didn’t used to be that way.
- [R32] Not for free: I downloaded but after 2 mins, I deleted it! Haha, you're force to purchase! No option to try it first. So yes, I deleted it asap.
- [R23] colors: not ready for my need for color coding for every entry.. also very hard to get to where I need to go.. sad .. but expect more
- [R44] Pretty but not functional: The lack of a search function is inexcusable. The developers bogus excuse that they didn’t want to clutter the interface with a search bar is absurd. Added entries routinely wind up on the wrong date and not being able to search for them to fix them is also inexcusable. It’s a pretty app that requires a lot of work from the user and needs a ton of work on the back end.
- [R62] Good, but needs work: Looks gorgeous on the Mac. The only caveats are that the diary entries limit is too short, so it gets cut off. Also a search function would help. Fix that then it s five stars plus!
- [R45] Bring back the minimal design pls!: Pls remove the disgusting settings and “+” icon on the bottom right. Why not just keep the previous design? It’s not a must to always modify the design with an update, especially when the newer one is awful! I’m sorry about the rating, because other than this everything else of the app seems great so far.
- [R99] Why so hard to add event?: This app has been very useful to me over the years. However, now it has become difficult to use, I.e. Why make it so complicated to add an event? This is the most basic task that should be easy to do!!!
- [R115] Too much: I’ve been using your app as a paid member for years, but lately it feels like you’re overly complicating it. Adding an event to a day used to take a few taps and a drag. It was very intuitive and easy. Now it takes more steps and it’s not as intuitive. Please stop overly complicating a very beautiful and simple approach. You don’t need to keep adding, we’re happy.
- [R160] New update = garbage: Thanks for add more clicks to my life. This app was simple. Thanks for complicating a simplified process. You guys dropped the ball with your UX department. You guys should talk more. FAILED!!!
- [R67] Doesn’t work: It’s been many days and still no fix for the “failed save” pop up on reoccurring events
- [R68] buggy: still buggy after recent update. red bar says failed to save after changing time for events. i use this app for every day routine and its been throwing me off all week bc i can’t move or change anything. please fix this soon 🙏😓
- [R181] Problem never been fixed in years I’ve had the app: I have used this app for quite a few years now. I have sent my problem I keep having with the app but it has yet to be fixed. Screenshots have been sent several times but still the same problem. When I pick the option “People” (tap to add) it doesn’t work and it throws up a red banner with “failed to save!” I would think after years of having th
- [R72] Non fun-functional: Since the company has traded hands I’m unable to access a yearly paid subscription. There is no customer support response except for a failed system that puts consumers in password reset deathloop which does not resolve the issue. STAY AWAY FROM THIS APP. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE!
- [R76] Canceled: App forced me to log in again and would not accept my information. Customer service referred me to a work around. I am not paying money for an app that I have to jump through hoops to access
- [R77] Usually is amazing, but they cut me off when my subscription doesn’t expire for another few weeks!: Title says it all. I have used this daily for more than a year. Combined with Actions, it is everything I need in a calendar app, and makes scheduling super easy. BUT they suddenly cut me off even though my subscription is still active through Feb 1. And gives an error when I try to restore…
- [R7] One major missing feature: I wrote a previous review. After the recent changes I love this app more and more. It doesn’t everything I need it to save one feature that makes it impossible for me to use. I have visibility to 4 peoples’ calendars where I do not want to get alerts. I need to see them to plan things, but I don’t need nor want alerts from those calendars. I was told to look at an vote
- [R13] Onetime Purchase.: The app is good. But there should be a lifetime but option for timepage along. It’s only available for the bundle, which is not right.
- [R17] are you ever going to fix the desktop bug?: This app is everything but for over a year the desktop versions WILL NOT work and allow you to hit the "actions" button. It doesn't know you have a subscription no matter what you o. Its the most annoying thing in the world as I need to use timepage on laptops and phones. Why isnt this fixed??
- [R50] Finally on Mac: Very happy that you finally made a Mac native app for this. I love the simplicity. My “Notes” would be some of the integration with ACTIONS. I think these two blended a bit more seemlessly would make this perfect.
- [R61] Free to download: If you say free to download and I cannot get past a login page you are wasting peoples time.
- [R66] No free version: Used to be able to use free version. Now requires a paid subscription. 😡
- [R73] Beautiful App for iOS could be better on Mac OS: Works fantastic on the iPhone but widgets are unusable on the Mac, this thing has potential to be the best of the best.
- [R86] Love the look, hate the execution (on Mac): The app works well on my phone, but I like to do my planning on my MacBook. However, the app constantly freezes and restarts on my MacBook that it is almost unusable. I have to revert to my native calendar app far too often and actions is only accessible by phone. For the cost, it would be nice for this to not be an issue.
