Across: Calendar, Your Way

I was looking for a do it all organization app, and Across was a great find which is the best the best! Key Strengths: - Widgets Well designed and functional Easy to use and functional widgets for calendar/tasks right on Home Screen - User friendly design - Great customization options - Variety of features - Integration of Tasks/Calendar Below is a note for Across on areas I think can be improved to make the app even better! Specific areas to improve: - Need more customization options in general and themes. In the dark theme section, should be an even lighter blue option. The current blue is good, but slightly lighter would make it more clear. Widgets are great but can be improved. - For 2/3 week widgets, the event should be wrapped into the next line. When only a single event, most of the name is cut off even though there’s a lot of blank space below it. - For the N days widget or week, the all day events should be shown up top. Its very important to show an all day event and there’s plenty of space above each day in a 3 day view to include a single all day event - Day Widget can be improved. Text should be bigger or options to customize it as it can be hard to read. Should be options so clicking anywhere on the task doesn’t mark it complete. Maybe have to click on the circle (which could be bigger) or double click, otherwise it’s too easy to accidentally emark them complete.

I have used this app for years, having premium. It’s been immensely helpful for managing my busy calendar and color coding is VITAL for me with my visual disability. It’s been a game changer. As for the app functionality and ease of use and organizing for those with hectic schedules especially for that have them driving around and managing many different clients, it’s the absolute best of all the apps I have tried. The random color generator for your calendars is poor design but knowing this team, they are fixing that or getting it fixed. It should at least let you set the additional colors to specific calendars and lists, otherwise it’s useless as a feature (but it looks like they have made some further improvements so look into it before spending the money for additional colors. Also, check out their other apps. This is not their only fantastic app. They have another in about to buy because like this app, it is a huge game changer for organization. Nothing else out there like these guys. Best apps by far.

Ive been searching for a long, long time and finally found an app that has a layout that I can use. 5 stars!! But….. My excitement has been somewhat diminished because of this holiday calendar “sub app” that is embedded in this Across app. It’s these annoying descriptions of all of these holidays (many of them I’ve never heard of) that appear on top of the days column. I’ve researched it for hours trying to figure out how to get rid of these things. I’ve reached out to Apple and was told it’s built into IOS 18. I cancelled it on my Calendar and Google apps (as instructed) and I finally found a place on this app where I can “unsubscribe”to this embedded holiday calendar app. It’s soooo frustrating that it keeps re-subscribing me every time I close and re-open the app. Those holiday descriptors keep popping up on the week view of the calendar. I know I can’t deal with having to constantly unsubscribe to this holiday app every time I open it up so if anyone can offer any input (ie solutions) for this I would be soooo grateful. I’m hoping someone can offer something because I love this app. Definitely a 5 star if this can be fixed.
