Jorte Calendar Reviews

I LOVE JorteCalendar and have used it for years, for everything. I just resubscribed and now all my events are gone! Any time I open JorteCalendar it’s like I’m starting it for the first time with all the prompts at the beginning. I also am not able to go back to previous months as they just appear with a blank white screen. I have sent an email to the support email with no response. Please help. I’ll be more than happy to change to the normal 5 star review once this problem is fixed.

I’ve had this calendar for 6 years and about 4 phones. So over these years I have bought a lot of icons, which I used on a daily basis. (I live through this calendar) I recently switched to an iPhone and had no idea I couldn’t restore my purchases. So I have been back and forth with people from Jourte about just refunding and I’ll repurchase on my new phone. But since the purchases have been over a span of 6 years they won’t do it. And won’t really give me a reason why. They just say they can’t. 🤨 I’m extremely disappointed at the lack of reasoning with these people. I love this calendar, mainly because of the icons. Once I find another calendar that I can sync, I’m switching.

Uprgraded to Plus... app is now frozen and crashes. Updated JorteCalendar ... still frozen and crashes. I can open JorteCalendar but cannot click on anything. Nothing works. Cannot access my schedule, cannot create new entries. Emailed support twice over the past several days... no response. I have several years worth of appointments and all of next year’s work calendar already input. I need access to all work days for 2022 for tax purposes (I don’t work a simple Mon thru Fri). This is unacceptable.

I see there was an update recently. JorteCalendar is super glitchy now. He kept asking me to reauthenticate so I kept doing it. That finally stopped today but now I cant edit or delete or change any of the appointments or events I had in the calendar before the update. The edit and delete buttons are gone, GONE. The only option I have is copy and then I have two of the same event and I can’t delete either of them. So frustrating and confusing. Guess it’s time to look for a new calendar app.

Hello I really love JorteCalendar with all the stickers to help someone like me whose more visual to remember important times and dates!! Hope to keep seeing more day to day stickers being added!!

One thing I’m trying to figure out is how to change the alert tone for Jorte calendar reminders as it only does a thump. I have an iPhone and my text message tones are set to the circles sound. It’s so frustrating because sometimes I have very important notifications and I cant here it when I don’t have my phone in my hand. Please help!!

This is the only thing that keeps it from 5 stars

I've been a Jorte User for more than 10 years, but it doesn't seem JorteCalendar is being updated to use the newer features of the iPad Pro:
- it does not use Split Screen
- it does not use the floating app window
It's frustrating when I'm trying to multi-task and don't want to keep swiping to and from each app.

Also, I'm disappointed that Jorte hasn't yet created a work-around such that I could use the default iOS Calendar and still be able to sync the Meeting ICON that goes with it. The appointment data transfers, but I have had to add manually add the meeting icon to both Jorte Calendars on my iPad Pro and iPhone.

I really hope that they could fix all of the above. That would be so awesome if they did.

The latest update has caused JorteCalendar NOT to open when tapped. I also have 15.0 on my iPhone so something needs to be adjusted. I love JorteCalendar but I can only get into it by going into the update and opening it.

Hope you can fix some more bugs soon.

I previously stated that JorteCalendar which I use often suddenly kept crashing. Problem seems to have been resolved. Very good daily planning/calendar app. Not sure about the comment regarding data collection and since I don’t have iwatch or components that give health data that doesn’t seem to apply to me.

JorteCalendar serves the basic purpose for my scheduling needs. I don't like that there are several color choices to apply to important items; however the only one that registers is red. I can't figure out what happened, because when I first began using JorteCalendar I could utilize any color within the options.

I highly recommend the Jorte calendar app. I’ve been using it for several years now and I am still as excited to use it as I was on the day I discovered it.

There is no other calendar app out there that is even remotely comparable. Jorte lets you adjust everything: the colors, fonts, background, wallpapers, icons, etc. You can adjust everything to truly make it the best fit for you.

They also offer way more icons than all the other calendar apps, and it is super easy to just add them to your calendar as an appointment or as a reminder. They come out with new icon packs regularly, and their icon packs truly are little works of art (many of them are designed by the amazing artist at HJ-Story).

In addition to offering tons of features, a high degree of flexibility, and super cute icons, Jorte has the best and nicest customer service. You can always reach out to them, and they even take into account wishes for future icon packs, which most apps wouldn’t even think about doing.

So If you’re looking for a calendar app, go with Jorte. I tried so many before I found Jorte and it’s really the only one that truly checks all the boxes. LOVE my Jorte!

I have been using Jorte for years. I can keep track of all my appts. And have my calendar synced to my google. I can make several different calendars in JorteCalendar.
The reminder feature is also a wonderful feature.
Truly the best calendar app I have ever used

I have used this calendar app for many years. It’s always been an awesome app for me. Easy to use and if an update happens to change something, write to JorteCalendar developer is easy and they are quick to reply and try to help you resolve the situation. Haven’t come across any they haven’t been able to walk me thru yet !

I have used Jorte calendars for many years.
I love the easy to read calendars.
The different colors and shading greatly assist tired eyes to speed read and keep track of the text.
Appointments can be added to your calendar from your mail automatically.
This is a useful application that is pleasure to use.

I have been using this since 2010 and I’ve only paid once to get the basic version. If you just need a basic calendar and and daily reminder, or a task tracker, then this is all you need. The only issue I have with JorteCalendar is it doesn’t automatically update to a new time zone if you move to a different state ( e.g from mountain time to eastern).

This calendar app used to be really laggy (I tried it a long time ago and my 4s iPhone couldn’t handle it lol) but now that my phones upgraded to a 12th gen it runs really smooth and runs exactly as the devs probably envisioned it would. I like how it has stickers, countdowns and all sorts of unique things.

i've had jorte for a long time... so long that i can't remember. when the last update to iOS broke functionality i was noticeably frustrated. i tried countless other calendars but none of them were even close to bringing what jorte offered. i felt lost... my whole life is scheduled there with icons and the such to help me remember very important things immediately. after finding the hack to unlodge functionality from a perpetual hang... jorte is finally back!!!! i ended up using a new account, but was able to import the same calendars and see all my customizations and icons and the such. please don't stop keeping up JorteCalendar! i'm shocked that there aren't more raving reviews! thanks team!

So JorteCalendar has been updated and is back to running like it did in the past. My calendar now syncs with my online account better and events will delete when I delete them. Loving the ability to set my own personal background from my photo album and of course have always loved being able to set my own color schemes.

I have had this calendar app on my last four phones!! It is the best and only month-at-a-glance calendar that I have found that I can put repeating functions and reminder alerts that work like having that paper calendar I used for decades. It helps me see at a glance what is ahead. I LOVE this Jorte Calendar app and couldn’t be without it. — Kudos to the developers and THANK YOU!!

I’ve used it for 3 years and I love it.
I really like the feature that allows me to change the color of a day of the month. My work schedule always changes so I like to make all the days I work one certain color (lime green) so I can see my work schedule at a quick glance.
I also use it as a mini diary of what I did that day.
And I love setting reminders for things on my schedule so I don’t forget them.
Thanks Jorte!!!

I’ve been using Jorte since 2016. I love JorteCalendar and use it daily to keep track of appointments, birthdays, and special events.
You can share JorteCalendar with others so you both always know what the days plans are and can edit as well!
