Tiny Calendar: Planner & Tasks

I love Tiny Calendar. I wanted a productivity app that could let me view the whole month and also include text about whatever I had going on; not like many calendar apps that only give you the option of color-coded dots that indicate you have *something* happening that day. I love the multiple calendar views. I love that it syncs with the google tasks app so that I can see my to-do list and appointments in one place. I love that you can make recurring events, so I can mark when recurring bills are due for every month and when family members have birthdays, just by checking a box. This app is everything I needed. I’ve stopped using paper planners and calendars, and I used to obsess over them. Tiny Calendar replaced all of that. I always know what I have going on, because my phone is always on me. I also really appreciate that a dark theme became an option, it’s even better now. I can’t think of any negatives. Thank you for this amazingly helpful app!

I almost never submit reviews but since I paid to have this app until September I feel compelled to speak. I really wanted to like this app. And I guess if I only had one calendar to manage I would probably love it. I like the interface, the different views available, etc. Unfortunately, I have multiple calendars, for work and personal use, that I need to manage in a calendar app. And when I add an event in one calendar, say my Google calendar online, I need it to automatically sync across that calendar on my phone and iPad. It did that for a little while, but apparently over the last few days, the app decided that I didn’t need to see updated event info on my iPad that I created on my phone, or vice verse. Or that an event I created on my MacBook calendar didn’t need to sync to my iPad calendar. I have tried to be patient. Uninstalling and reinstalling this app multiple times. I timed it and it’s been over 20 minutes since I created a test event in my personal Google calendar on my MacBook that STILL has not shown up on my phone or iPad calendars. I have done everything imaginable to remedy this (like constantly hitting the sync button and toggling calendars on and off within the app) but nothing is working. So, goodbye Tiny Calendar. It’s been real but when my paid subscription expires on September 2 so will my use of this app.

I’ve tried several calendar programs and have actually come BACK to Tiny Calendar. Of all the ones I’ve suffered through these many months, Tiny Calendar is the most user friendly and synchs with and consolidates my iOS and Google bits so I can accept a Google calendar invitation on my desktop, for example, and it will then get pulled into Tiny Calendar (i.e., you can continue to use your other calendar and reminder apps for easy data input, and use Tiny Calendar as the hub of everything. Why not 5 stars? Well, even the paid version of Tiny Calendar doesn’t have the ability to add details to Tasks (besides due date and a label.) I can setup repeating events, set reminders for events, etc. - but not for Tasks. I live and die by my to-do list and like to have it on a real piece of paper, so I’m really bummed. I like to have that oh-so-small-but-gratifying experience of crossing stuff off with a pen. I do like that you can choose to export (email or print) your calendar in a few different versions. Unfortunately I can’t export Tasks... if I could just have a way to print my Task list... <hint hint>
