  1. [R3] eCalendar 3/5 · US Not enough memory: The things I love: No subscription! I enjoy the large format calendar that you can easily see what each individual is doing. I enjoy the list, to-do, meal planner and can run it from my phone. I do not have a use for the reward system but it is a great feature for those with younger kids. The things I do not love and truly the deal breaker for me. Very little storage/memory. 16
  2. [R9] eCalendar 3/5 · US Ecalendar: It is challenging to use the phone app. It is a challenge to change weeks and months to schedule events. Syncing between my family is also not very intutive.
  3. [R12] eCalendar 3/5 · US Re-Organize please!: Using this as a digital task list for me and my kiddo. There is no ability to re organize tasks once completed! Please do an update! When you type in tasks for the day you need to put them in exact order. If you decide you want to move something forward or back there isn’t an option.
  4. [R62] Calendars 5/5 · US Excellent: So easy to use, everything color coded makes it easy to see at a glance.
  5. [R19] eCalendar 1/5 · US Too difficult to sync: Not happy with this as I can’t get it to sync with my iPhone
  6. [R45] eCalendar 3/5 · US User completely UNfriendly: I love the concept of the calendar. But it is impossible to figure out how to edit entry on it in anyway. Now it says I have to approve something in my email that doesn’t exist there. This is not acceptable.
  7. [R7] eCalendar 1/5 · US Stay Away from this Product: Terrible customer service. Stopped working less than 24 hrs after starting it. Can’t talk to anyone just text and it won’t let me delete a picture I put on it. Very creepy vibes
  8. [R22] eCalendar 1/5 · US Good when it worked: It was good for about 20 months and then it started glitching and now screen is completely dead. Tried to reach customer service through amazon and no response.
  9. [R49] eCalendar 1/5 · US Worst customer service and product: This is the worst product I’ve probably ever bought. Mine shuts off all the time. I’ve tried to do customer service on Facebook. And it’s been three weeks and I’m still waiting for Facebook admin to add my comments. I’ve also emailed their customer service and have heard nothing. Crickets so if you decide to get this item, make sure you know how to fix it or
  10. [R68] Calendars 5/5 · US Love iT: I have been using it for 5 years now. I use it everyday for my crazy work schedule . It works great for me . I love the month at glance !
  11. [R4] eCalendar 1/5 · US Terrible: Very unusable
  12. [R6] eCalendar 3/5 · US Upgrades 😔: It was a lot better when it sync up to my outlook
  13. [R66] Calendars 3/5 · US Don’t bother if looking for free: Can’t even have weekly events repeat without buying Pro. Thanks but no thanks.
  14. [R36] eCalendar 3/5 · US Customer service: I was #4 on a queue for a “live agent”, I waited 1.5 hours. One and a half hours later, I managed to get to Spot 1 but never got an agent. Either not enough personnel or mismanaged customer service.
  15. [R74] Calendars 5/5 · US Best calendar app!: Not only is the app itself easy to use and fully functional, if there’s ever an issue, their support team is top notch.
