Ratings and Reviews
A few glitches but customer service was excellent and issue resolved
Was really pleased to find this helpful looking app and thought £6 was a reasonable price for the convenience. Signed up and paid. After the 30 day ‘free trial’ all forward planning data disappeared. I got in contact with the provider and they were brilliant, looked into the problem and put out a new version. Downloaded it today and looks great.
Thank you!
Big changes from old app
But why? No longer can you see at a glance the transplanting times (signifying lunar activity). Yes you can filter for it but at the expense of everything else. The coloured dot system is not nearly as clear as to what a particular day or week may hold. It seems that nothing has been added to improve the app. No extra information on planetary aspects or moon phases. The filter system sort of works but there doesn’t really appear to be a need for it IMHO. Last year I found it a useful pocket companion to the Maria Thun calendar but it is now more expensive and less user friendly. Also forcing the user to opt in by making it useless without signing up is bad etiquette. I’m opting out.
Can’t see the month ahead
I’ve used the printed calendar for a couple of years and subscribed to this thinking it would show the same data. It promises to help me plan, so how do I see the month ahead in table form? I can only see how to plan my week by scrolling through from day to day - surely there is a full table somewhere?
