Tuta: Secure Private Calendar

Fully functional and calendar subscriptions work great. It's very streamlined. I like the color schemes and how you can toggle between the agenda view (which is new to me!) and the other time frames. The subscription system is nice, it allows me to nest my time organization, with my tuta calendar being the most micro and detailed. I am guessing I'll adjust to the minimalist framework and start to relax a little. Really impressed with everything tuta has created.

I really want this to be my solution! Tuta has so much going for it, in theory. But both this and the mail app CONSTANTLY crash, usually after only 30-60 seconds at most. And for some reason my calendar events won’t show without a connection, and seem to have to reload every time the app opens, which makes it very slow and sometimes completely and painfully useless. 😭😭😭 Time based things i need to be able to act on need to keep existing on my device when the power is out, ffs. I’d be happy to try to trouble shoot whatever this mess is, I’ve tried to find any settings that might be in the way, but I cant fond anything, and they only provide support for the paid level. Which, I mean, I get valuing your time, but why would I decide to pay you when my experience of trying out the service is that it straight up frequently does not work? 😩 I have no basis upon which to place hope that it will work after upgrading. And i know I’m not the only one struggling - there is a reddit forum that shows more ios users reporting constant crashing, but i don’t have an account so i can’t read the replies, only the complaints.

I switched from google calendar for data privacy issues. Tuta has great data privacy and so I appreciate it for that alone. The usability is low. Events are automatically made 30 minutes and the user has to scroll through 60 individual minute markers to make an event an hour long. Viewing the calendar by the week only shows 8 hours a day which is not helpful when trying to plan for day and evening events. There is no option to expand the week view of the calendar to include any more than 8 hours per day. This is in the desktop, mobile as well as IPad view. This doesn’t sound Iike a big deal but has become a massive annoyance. Once again, great for data privacy but awful for usability. Looking forward to any and all updates to the calendar.
