FirstSeed Calendar Reviews

by FleaBittenVarmit

I give up. I just downloaded this and I am fixing to delete it. Not sure why you need to save all my events and everything I put in the calendar. I have downloaded 5 tonight and they all want to either sync with other calendars, connect to facebook or something else to track my life. DO NOT EVEN BOTHER DOWNLOADING THIS!

I am a sucker for the next gear calendar app and this one has the month view that I always look for. Seems polished and smooth. Good stuff.

Would like to see the add button moved to lower right so I don’t have to reach so far if using my phone one handed. But overall pretty good.

This is my favorite Widget app! It offers me a 2-day Event list on an easy-to-read display listing out Today & Tomorrow. Perfect for my Today screen quick look.

Easy access to month view in the calendar itself. It shows Reminders and rolls them forward!

One small change I ask is…for the font S & S color setting. I don’t need to differentiate it from the other days of the week. But I’m forced to pick a color and choosing black isn’t supported by dark mode so disappears at night.

Also, we don’t need the icon on the watch complication. Would like great to use that line for part of the date so it was easier to read.

Deleted Fantastical……Deleted Informant 5.
Deleted Google Calendar. Plus any calendar apps I have installed. Paid for some but not all. Trust me I have downloaded and tried EVERY popular calendar app there is!! ALL of them were missing something that I always felt like
Well it does this or that...but it won't do this
one thing or another. This one hits all the marks and checks every box!! Vertical scrolling? DONE. (Really you have many scrolling options) Customize widgets? DONE. This truly is an app that you can make your own. Looking at Fantastical? Skip it and save $40 a year. All FirstSeedCalendar asks for is 5.99 and then you own it!!! DOWNLOAD IT NOW AND ENJOY!!!

I refuse to go back to fantastical and have been searching for a replacement for some time. This is honestly the best one I’ve found and you should at least give it a chance because trust me, I’ve practically tried every other calendar app on the store there is. Only complaint is it took me a minute to find out you need to turn on natural language input, which was just a weird thing to assume people wouldn’t want automatically on. But if my biggest complaint is “I had to go out of my way for 45 seconds to find and configure the settings” then you should at least give this company a try.

Edit: I have to eat crow. Customer service is amazing and quite diligent at addressing issues. This developer is really working to a premier reasonably priced calendar option for IOS. They care about their customers and are receptive to ideas and willing to actually implement them if they make sense. Don't hesitate to buy this one. FirstSeedCalendar has a few flaws, but I have no doubt that the developer will correct them slowly but surely. This really is a great option and I highly recommend you purchase. The pro version is worth every penny, and this is coming from someone who hates to buy apps.

Why on earth is this not allowing my family to get the pro version at no cost? I have emailed the company and have yet to receive a response? FirstSeedCalendar says it allows family sharing, but I've yet to see evidence of this. Otherwise, FirstSeedCalendar is decent but I do see room for improvement. Recognizing conference calls and automatically allowing you to join would be great. Automatically showing a full screen view of calendar entries are selected would be nice (or at least giving the option). The option to keep Saturday and Sunday font color the same as the other days of the week would be great so it would automatically change with light/dark mode. I have lots of other ideas that would give FirstSeedCalendar a definite edge. There are a lot of things that I do like about FirstSeedCalendar , but my main issue is the family sharing for in-app purchase of the pro version. I need a resolution on this ASAP. Rating will be amended once this is rectified.

Great calendar and reminder app. The watch app works well as well. Highly customizable and no subscription!

The drag and drop could use a little work, but it’s the best looking calendar app I’ve used.

After all the searches for something that work with my reminders that’s it. Great one man very very very good app bro. Keep it going. I’m definitely will use it for allot time.

I have to say that FirstSeedCalendar really is a wonderful app. The attention to detail is what I think really makes FirstSeedCalendar shine. For example, a very small thing is when you hit Today, it flashes the month, day and year. I could name many other things but you really have to try FirstSeedCalendar. You get it free and then can upgrade to get full featured app.

Yes, my title is in all caps because I’m yelling about how good FirstSeedCalendar is. It has the features I’ve been looking for: a perfect widget that opens into a full featured month view. Calendars will take a permanent place on my Home Screen. If you can’t find what you want in FirstSeedCalendar, you’re not going to find it in any other. Thanks to the developers for making this awesome utility to help me keep track of my schedule!!!

The developer is right on top of incorporating features for iOS 14. This type of concern for staying current and caring for customers is very admirable and much appreciated. FirstSeed Calendar is recommended without hesitation.

Previous review: Aside from the lack of horizontal views the white font is very difficult to read in certain colors used for calendars. An ability to choose a black font for a calendar would be very helpful.

Previous review: FirstSeed is a good and very useful calendar & reminder app. If it offered horizontal views (via rotating iPhone) it would be a five star app IMO. Recommended.

I have been using this calendar off and on since it first came out. I have always liked it but previously it had been missing some features that I really desired. The developers, however, have continued to upgrade and add features to the point that it is now feature equivalent to many of the better known calendar apps. The only area that it is really behind is in team collaboration but personally that is not a need that I have. It is also a much more affordable price than many of the others. I am moving to it almost exclusively and recommend it.

This is THE calendar I’ve been looking for, with every feature I want. The unique full-week layout has always been #1 on my calendar wish list but is very rare to find. My reminders sit alongside my events so I can see the whole day in one place. Fantastic.

With the paid version I can drag and drop to rearrange events and reminders, no more having to go through endless steps just to change a date. Oh, and the paid version is a ONE-TIME cost, no expensive subscription. Lots of customization options too.

I can’t tell you how much time I’ve wasted through the years scrolling through calendar apps trying to find the features I want. They’re all here and I’m done looking. Hallelujah!
