1. 1/5Keeps resetting my calendar

   I have been using pocket life for almost 6 years. This past year when I paid to renew my membership. I lost everything for the past five years. Every event that I’ve logged notes history of appointments I tracked. I submitted an inquiry through the support. Never heard back. I was physically sick from losing all of that information. Had already paid for the year so I had started over. I use this planner as a way to track my very busy schedule with myself and my children and my spouse. Today I went to check to see what time an appointment was later this week. And my calendar has completely reset again. Everything I had plugged for the entire year is now gone. Every reappointment I have logged through the rest of the year is now gone. I cannot describe the level of inconvenience this has created. I will be looking for another app in the future. And do not recommend using PocketLife at all. Whatever updates they implemented at the end of 2025 are faulty and undependable. The subscription fee for this app is not worth the trouble and missed appointments. It will create. Do better developers. And I have to spend the rest of the week contacting different offices. To check on appointments for my three children and myself for the rest of the year to make sure I do not miss anything last minute.

2. 5/5I feel in control

   I’ve dreamed of being one of ‘those’ people since i was a child. You know, the people who are so organized it almost makes you dizzy? My organization skills have always been sub par. Ive tried almost every app on the app store, planners, sticky notes, paper calendars and even white boards. Ive had this app for about an hour and i already feel more organized than i ever have. I really like how you can customize the shapes of the labels, as well as the color choices. I HATE getting an app and they have 5-6 ashy or pastel tones and thats it. im a visual person so its way easier for me to view. The only thing i would change if i could is, if you could sync your meal plan from the ‘any list’ app that i use to grocery shop and store recipes/meal plan for the week. That app is so handy for check lists/ grocery organizations/ and more. These two apps together? WHEW, i would be unstoppable! Thanks for creating an interface thats not completely boring for those of us out here that, without this range of customization, would forget they even had a schedule planned ( reminder/alarm or not) being an adult doesnt have to be completely boring, and this app gets you excited to add new things to your schedule!

3. 3/5Still a great calendar

   Update: I was contacted by the developer and told that I can still create a customized alert but that the option has moved to the bottom of the screen. (Nothing about this anywhere in the support FAQs, by the way.) I added a star since the feature is still there, but only one star because this is the most ridiculous place to put it! I can’t imagine why they would move it from the most logical place on the screen to a completely different place. It didn’t help that I couldn’t find anything about it in some kind of “new features” update. Like I said, I’m glad the feature is still there, but I find it awkward and not at all intuitive to move my finger from the alert setup to the bottom of the page when I want to customize. ***** My rating just dropped from 5 to 2. The reason: you can’t create customized alerts anymore! The option seems to have disappeared with the latest update (August 2023). Honestly, that was one of my main reasons for my continuing to purchase this app, and I have been a happy, loyal customer for many years, until now. Here’s why that option matters to me. Let’s say I have to get up at 5:30 a.m. one day for something. I don’t want t be reminded exactly one day (24 hours) before because either I’ll sleep through it or the reminder will wake me up unnecessarily at 5:30 the day before the event to remind me about it! If I can set my reminder for 22 hours instead of one day, that’s so much better. If they don’t find a way to bring the customized reminder option back, I might as well just use the Calendar app that comes in the iOS.

4. 5/5Love it!

   Love that it links w other calendars (though I'd prefer to mesh them all together onto one grand calendar), love that it's linked w my reminders, and the alerts AND the alerts based on location/drive time!! (though could use more options for the audible alerts) love the layout-that I can see a portion of what I wrote w the color I chose on each day instead of a simple dot that doesn't mean anything without clicking it... don't like that I have to keep paying for it over and over every year but like it so much I keep doing just that. Recently figured out how to view my calendar on my iPad- and share it between the two devices- so I can be on the phone and adjusting the iPad calendar at the same time. Main thing I would change: when you have 2 events for the same day, be able to choose which one goes on top! To prioritize the at a glance display. I’d rather know at a glance I have a doctors appt that day over knowing it’s my lil icon indicating it’s a pay day.. as even tho I try to do things w different colors, inevitably the more important one defaults to the bottom layer and I miss things.. easy to click and view but not so much at a glance to see that little border..

5. 5/5Awesome

   I never know what to title a review, bus Awesome pretty much explains it. My friend introduced me to this app a few years ago and I have not been able to live without it since. I was the paper calendar person because I like to physically see what I have going on and not just a dot that says I’m busy. Apple shows a dot when something is on your calendar, that can be a birthday, an event, a holiday I don’t celebrate etc. the only thing I don’t like about this app is I can’t delete the holidays that I don’t celebrate but that’s fine. They recently fixed the glitch when inviting someone. When I first got the app I could just start typing and the contact would appear. Then for about a year or so I physically had to go into my contacts to add them (always the same people) now I can add those same people I always add to events by just typing again. I know it seems petty but it was the ease of the app and I liked it. But it never stopped me from using it. I love that it just lays everything out and it so simple to read. Work is one color, fun things are another and important things are another. It works out great!
