Howbout: social calendar 12+

This app is mad clever and FREEEE

My friends and I always have trouble finding a time to hangout and this app helps a lot. You can pin events which count down the days for the events, you can hav bucket lists, the plans are color coordinated to each person so you can tell who is free or not, you can invite people to see who is going to the same event you are, you can add details to the plan explaining what you are doing, add a location, you can mark your plans as busy, maybe busy, or free, alert everyone when the event is starting and if it’s a day or a week away (even more times available), you can set an event for multiple days without individually adding it, you can add multiple events on a day, and you can add memories to the app, and pictures to your plans. If you only want to look at your schedule or a certain amount of people you can press on the people to limit the viability of whose plans you want to see. Very great and useful.

Fantastic

I’ve been looking for a shared calendar app for a good while now. This one is almost exactly what I was looking for: it’s customizable so I can have the week start on Monday and use 24-hour time. It’s simple and easy to use; I can be cute and creative without the options being overwhelming. Currently I share the calendar with 3 other people and it’s worked out incredibly well.

My only suggestion so far is I wish I could select a bunch of days and add my work schedule; I have a wonky schedule so I can’t select a recurring date. As of now, I have to add my work schedule to every day individually which is annoying. But worth it for everything else.

Needs to fix and add things, pretty decent

I’ll start off by saying I hate how you HAVE to add three friends to even begin using it and they keep shoving it down your throat until you do so. Another thing I hate is how you can’t use the calendar to pick days when you’re trying to put down a multi-day, all-day event. Anywhere you put your finger, it’ll just go to the day before that ?? For whatever reason and then when you try to save it, it shows a completely different date like at that point what is the little calendar for if it doesn’t even do the job. A widget on the iPhone would be pretty helpful too. Other than that though I actually quite like the app. It’s very helpful with planning things with friends and easy to organize. I find it very useful in my everyday life. It would be way nicer if they fixed those mistakes.
