Timepage

45
Value score / 100 Worth paying? No Skip it

Timepage offers a visually appealing and highly customizable calendar experience, but its value is significantly undermined by persistent bugs, syncing issues, and a forced subscription model.

Free to download seen up to $149.99 4.6★ lifetime (15,278) since 2015

Timepage is praised for its beautiful design, intuitive interface, and customization options, making scheduling a more enjoyable experience for many users R1R4R6R8. However, a significant number of recent reviews highlight critical issues such as app freezing, crashing, unreliable syncing across devices, and non-functional widgets, which severely impact its usability and justify user complaints about its paid subscription R2R15R17R21.

Free vs paid

Reviews indicate that Timepage is no longer truly free to use, as a subscription is required to perform basic functions like adding events R30R32R61R66. Users report being forced to purchase a subscription or encountering paywalls almost immediately after downloading the app, with no option to try it first R30R32R61R66. Some long-time users express disappointment that the app, which once had a free version, now requires payment for essential features R30R66.

Value complaints

  • The app forces users to subscribe to perform basic functions, with no free trial option.R30R32R61R66
  • Many users feel the subscription is not justified due to persistent bugs, crashing, and unreliable syncing across devices.R15R17R21R33
  • Users are frustrated by aggressive pop-up ads for bundles, despite being paid subscribers.R27R37R100
  • The lack of a lifetime purchase option for Timepage alone, only for a bundle, is seen as unfair.R13

Where it delivers

  • Users consistently praise the app's beautiful, sleek, and customizable user interface and visual design.R1R4R6R8
  • The app offers useful features such as weather updates, bill reminders, watch integration, and time-to-leave notifications.R3R8R41R57
  • Many find it intuitive, easy to use for adding and managing events, and superior to default calendar apps.R4R6R9R10
  • The app's ability to sync with other calendar apps like Apple and Google Calendar is appreciated.R41
Worth paying if

The paid tier might be worth it for users who prioritize a visually stunning and highly customizable calendar interface above all else, and who are willing to overlook or troubleshoot frequent bugs and syncing problems R1R4R6R8. It could also appeal to those who benefit specifically from its unique features like weather updates, bill reminders, and schedule on their watch, provided these features work reliably for them R3R8.

Skip / stay free if

You should skip paying for Timepage if you require a reliable, bug-free calendar app with consistent syncing across all your devices, especially Mac and iOS widgets R2R15R17R21. Users who expect natural language input for event creation or a search function on desktop versions will find it lacking R12R15. Those who dislike forced subscriptions or aggressive in-app ads for bundles should also avoid it R27R32R37R61.

Evidence note: The lifetime rating of 4.61728 from 15278 ratings is high, but recent reviews (many 1-3 stars) frequently highlight critical bugs, syncing issues, and monetization complaints. This suggests a decline in user satisfaction and app reliability over time, making the current value proposition questionable despite past positive sentiment.

  1. [R30] 1/5 · US 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.
  2. [R32] 2/5 · US 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.
  3. [R61] 1/5 · US Free to download: If you say free to download and I cannot get past a login page you are wasting peoples time.
  4. [R66] 1/5 · US No free version: Used to be able to use free version. Now requires a paid subscription. 😡
  5. [R15] 1/5 · US 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.
  6. [R17] 3/5 · US 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??
  7. [R21] 1/5 · US 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
  8. [R33] 1/5 · US 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!
  9. [R27] 1/5 · US 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
  10. [R37] 3/5 · US Ads: Timepage has been showing me ads for their bundle deal with their other apps, which is extremely disappointing considering It is a paid service.
  11. [R100] 3/5 · US Subscription Bug: Love the app but here the last several days every time I try to add a calendar event even though I’ve already paid for the app it keeps coming up want me to subscribe to the bundle. deleting and using another calendar app until it’s fixed.
  12. [R13] 4/5 · US 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.
  13. [R1] 4/5 · US 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 👍🏻👍🏻
  14. [R4] 5/5 · US 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.
  15. [R6] 5/5 · US 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
  16. [R8] 5/5 · US 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
  17. [R3] 5/5 · US 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.
  18. [R41] 5/5 · US 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
  19. [R57] 3/5 · US Design & Features are cool but it’s glitchy: I’ve been using Timepage by Moleskine for years now, and there’s so much to love. The aesthetics and customizability are top-tier. I also really enjoy the time-to-location feature and the humorous transportation icons, which add a playful touch. The ability to set multiple reminders for events and easily duplicate them across dates is incredibly conveni
  20. [R9] 5/5 · US 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.
  21. [R10] 5/5 · US 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
  22. [R12] 1/5 · US 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.
  23. [R205] 3/5 · US 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
  24. [R26] 2/5 · US Where are the widgets???: The widgets just randomly disappeared after the latest update, I need them!
  25. [R39] 1/5 · US 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
  26. [R2] 3/5 · US 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.
  27. [R35] 2/5 · US 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
  28. [R36] 2/5 · US 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
  29. [R46] 2/5 · US Needs work: Events just disappear. Over and over. Common occurrence for the last few years. The design is visually simple and neat, but the calendar itself is not dependable for those who need help remembering dates and times
