24me Smart Personal Assistant Ratings and Reviews

Great but suggest an improvement

24ME is one of my favourite calendar apps ever. It does nearly everything I want a life based calendar to do, I’m very happy with it. 2 little things that I think would make your app even better is:
1. When you look at the calendar as a month, you can see three events in one day and then if you have anymore it will add a little “+1/2/3” etc. You have to go into the daily section to be able to view all those events. I think it would be so much simpler if you could just tap the date and all of them popped up somehow.
2. My parents are divorced and I have a very tricky timetable as to when I am with each of them. I have different coloured events that sit at the top of each of my days to tell me. But it would be so much simpler if there was an option to make a day coloured, for example the 23 May was slightly blue to indicate I am at my dads house.

I really love your app and these improvements would make me love it even more!

24me is functional but not excessively complicated

I don’t usually write reviews but having recently spent about 20 hours in a week obsessing over finding the best organiser app for me, I think 24me deserves a review. I had the app before I started exploring organiser apps. I learned a little more about GTD strategy and decided to try find the app which best incorporates calendar, daily scheduling and task/project management. To me, there are many design features which could be developed to create an app which is better than anything that currently exists. However, not being a programmer myself, I’m not sure if writing such an app is feasible. Having investigated the current status quo via experimentation with many apps (obviously not all of them!), I have found that 24me works best for me due to a good balance of functionality and simplicity. I find that with these organiser apps, having more features and customisation options can result in making entries becoming too time consuming, which for me, defeats the purpose. After all the time I spent and money I pent on apps and subscriptions, I’m back with 24me, so perhaps you too, should give it a try.

Well thought Out App

I really like this app. It’s easy to use but functional Also. Notification Function is great And Reliable. The Apo has a really nice Feel to it It’s easy to set reminders and tasks. I think it’s got a lot of potential. I would be more inclined to buy it if I could choose a period that doesn’t auto renew. I have Other Apos where you can just select the period you want. The hassle of having to worry about turning auto renew off and going to iTunes etc puts me off. Something to look at as a lot of users might think the same. I have another 2 Apos that give me the month option without auto renew and I’m buying every month but Probably would not if it was an auto renew option. Something to think about. Good Job Developers. Think 24me is really good

Developer Response ,

Thanks so much for taking your time to writing to us! What you can do is to make a monthly purchase, and then cancel it immediately. Your subscription is going to be active for a full month. You will then need to make another purchase in the following month to keep the subscription active.

Very useful!

Slowly getting my life into order using this app. It is functional but not without personality, full of features without being bloated, and the developers seem to have a much better understanding than most of how people actually use calendars and planners. There are a few tweaks to the task page in particular that would make it easier to use:
1. The ability to add tasks without a due date. Even the "later" button just makes them due at an arbitrary date which just creates more work when the day comes around and your brain dump from two weeks ago suddenly starts sending your phone into hysterics...
2. Making it easier to drag tasks around. The haptic feedback slows down the process in the calendar as well as the task list, it would be great to have a setting that turns this off.
3. The ability to quickly add tasks from the notes page - so e.g. if you have a note due at 3pm then all tasks written in that note are also due at 3pm. If there is no due date just put them in the "unscheduled" task list.

In the far future, natural language interpretation and a very simple goal tracking feature would make this a true personal assistant. That said I love the app for what it is and I think you're doing a fantastic job :)

Thank you so much for writing us! As for your suggestions, 1️⃣add tasks without a due date - it is possible: when adding task, go to the "time" tab, go "today" (the date) and tap on the 'Clear', then tap 'Done'. That will set the task with no due date. 2️⃣ dragging tasks is possible. take a look at this video - and see how you can drag tasks with 24me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYsQ2PEXBzg&index=5&list=PLZk8nRzKKBqZ5XpVuCJimRNkOjH9Ge90j&t=0s -- as for the rest of your suggestions, Natural language is defiantly on our list!

Okay but some deficiencies

There are quite a few really annoying things about this app. You can’t convert an event to a task and vice versa (which needs to be done a lot because adding something defaults to meeting and if you’re in a rush you’ll forget to select “task” and then you’re stuck with it). It takes too many taps to close a single occurrence of a recurring activity (just make the “delete series” a feature in the edit mode! It’s not that hard!). It crashes whenever I try to watch a tutorial. It hasn’t got a web/desktop version. I can’t figure out how to create a task without a deadline. It has so much potential - I just wish it was made more for users, which should be a given but in this case they seem not to have. I do like the Apple Watch integration, and the nag feature (when it works). I regret paying for it - with these issues it’s like I’m using a free version of something, not a paid version.

Great App

Loving his app so far! Does exactly what I need it to, which is put my calendar AND my reminders in the same place!

My only comments/feedback are that the adjust image still seems buggy (noted as a fix in this version?), it would be great to choose from a photos folder other than Camera Roll, and it would be nice to be able to customise the colours of my calendars from within the app, instead of having to exit it and go into the native calendar app.

But those are minor issues really. Overall, thank you for making a very easy to use functional app!

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the feedback and your suggestions! We really enjoy reading all your comments and learn from your experience. Regarding the event labels, indeed we plan to make this feature more robust. However, note that for tasks and notes you can change the label color. As for the image problem - please send us a screenshot of this issue to our support team and we would be happy to help you fix it (support@twentyfour.me) :)

Fabulous Organiser!

Different viewing options customise your view of the calendar - all are clear and colour coded, making it easier to read and locate items. In addition, personalisation of images for calendar make for a very pleasant appearance - which I love, as it makes me happy simply to look at something I find attractive. Very easy to use - adding new items, viewing items and checking off tasks when done. Extras include the ability to link social accounts and finances to your calendar, as well as syncing to your previous standard calendar that comes with an iPhone or iPad, and your contacts. All in all a wonderful App!

Easy to use

Easy to use, good views available, has password protection. Initially had issues getting started with this app. It was unable to connect to any of my calendars (local or email) therefore wouldn’t let me add an event. After a long time troubleshooting, researching, downloading a multitude of other calendar apps, I found a different calendar that actually gave me an error message reflecting the fix I needed to resolve my local issue. Suggest to developers to add a KB detailing all of the menu options in Apple iPhone settings where calendar permissions and restrictions are modifiable. The error reflects only one area to check when I actually had to check about 4.

Very happy

I have a small business, it is very convenient to schedule in different clients, but I did want something where I could work out proposed schedule for the next couple of months I like to be organised, but it kept changing on my other app for actual appointments, may be a selection when adding to whether you want that individual event linked or something. But other then that love how you can change the banner colour so allocate individual colours to different clients and at a quick glance see who is the next day.

A winner

I love Apps and have regularly used and continue to use Apps for exercise, fitness and health tracking. I have tried many personal assistant Apps over many years and have never stuck with them for more than a week. I have been using 24Me for a month and I find myself sticking with it. Like any successful relationship it is not easy to analyse why this one. Maybe ease of use, clean interface, relevant notifications? Has my recommendation.
