2025-10-20	ad*****	Hi! I love your app and having been using it for a year or two now, and I have some ideas for improvements. Some improvement would be adding an option for more colors and icons. For example a color wheel, pattern options maybe, or even the choice to insert your own photo. You could also make so that there is more icon options, or people can draw their own (i feel it would be fun). Lastly, your app is really cute and I love it so much, so adding new features would mean a lot to me. Thank you!!

2025-08-16	yo*****	As much as I like it for the most part I really really wish the colors were not limited to the same old colors. I love pastels I love colors I like creating my own I wish we could do that instead of having to choose from the same old 10 colors provided (very harsh colors btw). Also I always click sort by “happening soon” and as soon as I get out of the app and go back in it switches back and never stays in the same list. It makes it inconvenient. I like following a list and knowing what’s coming up next and preparing for it ahead of time, not having to worry if it’s sorted or not.

2022-12-15	Fo*****	I am just starting to use this app but seems nice. You can now purchase Lifetime for $5.99. The only problem is it does not sync from devices so you have to enter again on another device. However it is in Landscape for my iPad Pro.
