Calendarium - About this Day Reviews

Great way to start each day. The links to Wikipedia articles for each item are an excellent feature.

One star deducted for occasional factual errors (see below), and use of obscure units of measure, such as Mw fot earthquake intensity.

Error example: 20 January 1953 says Eisenhower was the first US Presidenr inaugurated on 20 January in accordance with the 20th Amendment. Not true. The 20th Amendment was ratified in 1933, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt was inaugurated for his second term on 20 January 1937.

Calendarium gives you everything that happens on this day in history which I compare it to a radio station that has a almanac in the morning. Wish they also gave the birthday of famous people born on this day.

The icon for Calendarium does not reflect the current date-Reflects & stays at the date that Calendarium was purchased. Although when app is opened up the correct day does pop up which I find a bit annoying & tacky, especially since it is not that hard to fix this inconsistency.

I had Calendarium for about 2 wks & deleted it. It was mostly a list of wars, crashes & accidents. How about some fun facts or interesting little known info??? It was instead a depressing litany of people being crappy to each other. It is a part of history but jeez, how about some soul inspiring happy moments? Or maybe during black history or women’s history months, focusing on that. Just really hated reading lists of how many peeps died on this date for whatever reason.

It makes a good entertainment while on line or at the DMV. A novel way to access Wikipedia. It may be more interesting if you can select directly a date instead of the one by one days.
Thank you

Love waking up and finding out what happened on today’s date long ago. Sometimes I know what transpired on today’s date, other times it’s all new to me.
Great app!

I think it would be interesting if there was a possibility of navigating though days more easily than going back and forth day by day.

Also I think it could have an option to see the most important facts of the day.

Great Ap. I look forward to reading what happened on Dailythe current day in history. It’s part of my daily routine

Great calendar to keep up with all those special days as ya go, Birthdays, appointments, sport events, Maybe top 3 apps on my phone, set it and it will not let ya Forget it, Great

Once I figured it out, the feature that allows one to “google” the event to learn more detail is an invaluable history teacher!

I literally use this every day. I use it to know which day it is for my 365 project and to know sunrise and sunset times. The little history nuggets are also nice.

Can you please update your app icon? It feels like I’m in 2010 when I look at it. Also a better variety of facts!

Reading the historical events I lose myself and can spend longer than I intend but it is fascinating to research some topics.

It is fun to use Calendarium & gain a historical perspective about events that happened a year; a decade; or much further back in time.

A very interesting app that shows ‘this day in history’. Love it!

I enjoy Calendarium immensely - yet the ability to share on social media has been removed eliminating the ability to share quickly.

I’d give it stars if they brought that back - please.

Please put some good news in Calendarium .
Dislike the clips on who killed who every day.
Other than that it’s a great app!

I just deleted Calendarium. The most recent dates I have seen are 2017. Nothing later. Is Calendarium no longer updating?

I’m always looking for an icebreaker for conversations throughout the day. Non-political, and fun

Interesting points in history but mostly focused on negative events of mass killings and war events.
