Review summary

Many users praise Caros Calendar for its simple, user-friendly design. However, repeated update-related problems dominate feedback: data disappearing or becoming inaccessible after upgrades, failed or incomplete backups/restore, and difficulties transferring data between devices. Other recurring issues include poor or missing search functionality, recurring events not working as expected, widget disappearance, and stability/compatibility problems with newer Android versions. Overall sentiment is mixed: the concept is valued, but update-induced data integrity and maintenance problems are the main complaints.

Pros

Easy to use and a simple calendar interface
Works well and generally reliable when it functions
Well-liked, familiar calendar app with a simple design
CSV backup/restore capability

Cons

Data loss or inaccessibility after updates/upgrades
Backup/restore failures or inability to backup all calendars
Search functionality missing or poorly functioning (no tool, unsorted results)
Recurring events not working or not repeating next year
Stability issues and Android compatibility (crashes on startup; data transfer problems; widget removal)

2025-03-28	Va*****	Events disappear from the calendar, and then suddenly appear. This is happening with today's events. For example, I have an appointment today. I met with a person and go to the calendar to mark "done". But this event just doesn't exist! I'm creating it anew because it's important for me to remember this event and mark it as done. In the evening, I go to the calendar to check which events are left and I see that the meeting that disappeared in the afternoon appeared in the evening.

2024-11-05	Ni*****	11/5/24 Could you please make the "event search" results SORTED BY Date (maybe as an option) like old versions?much easier for people like me who has years of data in it. Thanks. ###6/9/24 ### Still the best. But can we increase the 5000 events limitation to 10K? Thanks. 9/2/22 The best simple calendar

2023-05-25	An*****	How am I supposed to backup the calendar? The only working option is to restore items, not backup new items that have been entered.

2023-03-05	Ju*****	It was good before new update. After updating, I cannot backup all calendars but one by one. It is time consuming. Can you provide an option for backup all? Also, give me back the function to search by calendar. Sometimes the title is similar, the searching result is messy and hard to find one I want.

2022-10-30	Mi*****	I like it but it does have some sync issues

2022-09-29	Mi*****	This app seriously needs another update. The latest update sucks! I scheduled a recurring event for a birthday reminder, but the repeat item isn't working. The birthday shows on the calendar for this year, but not next year. Please allow me to have the option to return to the previous version that I've been using for years! This sucks.

2022-06-19	Ji*****	Many things were changed after update. Design matrials were improved visulally, but I can find inconvenient things a lot such as search function structure(It is very poor..) I hope this should be revised in the next update.

2022-06-11	Ja*****	I lost everything with the new update. I have a special needs child and all of her appointments are now deleted. It originally doubled everything each day too so "workout" would appear 2-3x each day instead of once. I am so upset right now. I depend on a well functioning app for doctors and therapy appointments for my daughter and one update, it's all gone.

2022-06-05	cy*****	Was happy with the app before the upgrade. I can not access any of my information after the upgrade. Calendar does not open nor show any of my information. There are years of information in there. And the restore data button isn't working. Thinking of uninstalling and reinstalling but afraid to loose all my data if its still in there.
