## Description

Raft is a beautiful shared calendar for couples, families, and close friends to connect, plan together, and see what others are up to. Connect with partners and friends, share events, and chat inside calendar entries with images, emojis, and animated GIFs.

Countdowns help you anticipate weddings, anniversaries, parties, and other milestones. You can share selected plans while keeping others private, invite people with a tap, and keep everyone in sync with reminders and a collaborative feel.

## Review summary

Users praise Raft for its shared calendar concept and fun, easy-to-use interface that helps couples and families coordinate schedules. But many reviews report reliability problems: login errors, calendars not syncing between partners, frequent crashes, and missing or flawed features such as deleting recurring events, adding locations, and the invite flow (with a paid model). The app shows strong potential but requires substantial fixes to be consistently usable.

### Pros

- Shared calendar helps couples/families coordinate schedules and keep everyone informed.
- Fun, interactive experience with cute GIFs and an aesthetically pleasing UI.
- Easy to use and user-friendly interface.
- Keeps people on top of important items without needing to call each other.

### Cons

- Sign-in/authentication issues and login failures across multiple reviews.
- Poor synchronization/sharing between users; partners often can't see each other's calendars or updates.
- Frequent crashes and instability when adding or editing events.
- Missing or broken features (e.g., deleting recurring events, adding event locations/notes) and post‑purchase invite/paywall changes.
