    My partner and I both have crazy work schedules and having a shared calendar app helps us keep things straight, plus the GIFs are cute - the app has a lot of issues though. When I try to edit an existing event, the app just glitches and quits. Sometimes my partner and I can’t see ANYTHING the other person has put in, even when we have it set to show the other person. Then we have to go back in and update or recreate the event in order for it to show up on the other’s calendar. Having a calendar together doesn’t really help if we have to constantly ask “can you see my work dates on the calendar this week? They’re XYZ” I’d also like to be able to put in locations and notes for the events - a feature to add addresses would help us a lot, as would a space to add notes like “remember gift,” “black tie,” etc. We might try a different app until this one gets some fine tuning.

  • Simple and visual, but needs repeating events!

    I’ve tried a lot of calendars and this one is easy and visual enough that I actually use it without getting bogged down by text. I love that you can set custom images for events.The only issue is its very annoying to type in the exact same events for every week. Things like work and class could be simplified by allowing us to input repeating events. Please add this feature to make this the perfect app!It would also be incredibly helpful to favorite images to use as icons from the gify or web section, or automatically apply icons to reoccurring events ie. same icon for all work shifts. It would be an excellent quality of life update and make the app easier to use.

    Hey Veronica! We're happy to announce that repeating events are now in the app. Please check it out and let us know what you think. And if you like it, please consider bumping up the rating 😉 Have a great day!

  • Great for scheduling with friends

    I was looking for a calendar app that our group of friends could easily use to plan events together. We tried sharing google calendars and it was too sloppy and required too much work on everyone's part. I found this app and it's perfect for what we use it for. One person can create an event and share it and if anything changes, everyone is updated. It's use is similar to Facebook events but for a smaller group with a bigger focus on seeing what your friends are doing and if they're available.

  • One thing missing

    I'm planning a trip with my husband for our first anniversary and was looking for an app that he and I could both use to keep track of our itinerary. I loved trying out this app but unfortunately had to delete it because there was no place to put the location of everything :((( I really wanted to use this app but not be able to put the location of each event I have on the calendar really defeated the purpose. I'll have to find another app for this reason

  • Calendar not updating for each other

    Fired up this calendar again thinking that after a year the developers would have had time to fix the issues of not being able to remove reoccurring events and now I find that my partner and I can’t even see any recent events that we have added. I would be happy to pay for a product that works, but seeing basic things not work (like deleting an event) make me doubt that it’s worth giving up money for this app. Maybe I’ll consider it again if these are fixed within the next month, but I’m going to start looking for alternatives.

  • Can’t log in

    I installed the app with no issues, but I attempted to create an account via email, phone number, AND Facebook several times each and would get an error message each time I had to verify my account. I’d love to use this app if I could only log in.Update: Thank you very much for your response, Fredrik — I’ve sent you an email and hope that my login issue can be resolved. Changed from 1 star to 3 stars because I’m very grateful for the communication! Would love to update to a higher rating if I can use and enjoy the app!

    Hi! Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We are so sorry that you experienced this annoying issue. The account verification process is done by a third party provider and of our hands 😞. I would love to figure out what goes wrong. If you have the time, you are more than welcome to send me an email to fredrik@joinraft.com and explain where things go wrong and I will try to help you personally.Have a great day!Fredrik Johansson, Co-founder Raft
