1. [R1] Timepage 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.
2. [R4] Timepage 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.
3. [R5] Timepage 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.
4. [R11] Timepage 4/5 · US Love the app!: I would like it even more if it had more visuals for overlapping schedules. I also feel there could be other ways to view the week and schedules. I love this app. Been using it for years. I can also see that there can be improvements.
5. [R14] Timepage 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
6. [R21] Timepage 3/5 · US older brain: it’s a little to complicated for my older brain
7. [R23] Timepage 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
8. [R32] Timepage 5/5 · US Very nice interface: I like the interface. It has good color options. It seems easy to operate.
9. [R3] Timepage 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.
10. [R7] Timepage 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
11. [R13] Timepage 2/5 · US Where are the widgets???: The widgets just randomly disappeared after the latest update, I need them!
12. [R12] Timepage 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.
13. [R16] Timepage 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
14. [R19] Timepage 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.
15. [R6] Timepage 3/5 · US 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
16. [R44] Timepage 5/5 · US 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
17. [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.
18. [R105] Calendars 3/5 · US Phone Sync: Waaaaaaaa, Calanders worked fine, then one day poof, would not sync with my phone. Tried to reach help but got AI… I have not learned how to talk to AI, ended up with all these things to try…no luck. Try something else, I paid for the year or I would leave.
19. [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.
20. [R67] Calendars 1/5 · US Not the best: I have used many calendar apps and you have to pay for repeat events like wth!! Over rated in my opinion. Use time tree!
21. [R70] Calendars 2/5 · US Free version does not allow recurring events: Looking for free basic cal but lack of ability to make events recurring makes this an incomplete calendar. Other functions seemed great.
22. [R73] Calendars 1/5 · US Very Sneaky! Features taken away and locked behind a monthly subscription: I was using this app for a long time on its basic level. Now, after the last “update”, they took several simple features away and locked behind a monthly subscription. Editing colors, multiple alarms for events and reminders have been stripped naked. That’s a hard NO for me. That’s like car manufacturers would suddenly ch
23. [R15] Timepage 3/5 · US 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
24. [R28] Timepage 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
25. [R60] Timepage 3/5 · US CHANGES ON COMPUTER DON'T UPDATE ON PHONE: The app is great except for one glaring problem. Stuff that's updated on the computer don't update on the phone application. This makes it extremely inefficient since you have to contastly take out your phone to make updates to your calendar. PLEASE MAKE A CHANGE so that I can see changes on both
26. [R69] Calendars 3/5 · US No longer worth the money: I bought this app when it was a one time fee. Then they changed it to a subscription and I paid because it’s what I’m used to. But it is consistently behind in syncing with shared calendars, and my phones calendar now offers all of the same features, further making an annual subscription a waste of money, when I’m having to go into my phone calendar regularly to see thin
27. [R55] Timepage 2/5 · US Update issues: Updates always cause glitches with the widget. Current update has caused the widget to disappear.
