PERMISSIONS
aCalendar only asks for mandatory permissions for its functionality. No data of yours will ever be shared with anyone unless you decide to. We have no access to any of your data. If you have any questions about permissions please contact our support by email.
APP2SD
Unfortunately app2SD cannot be supported, because homescreen widgets do not work from SD. This is an Android limitation. But aCalendar is optimized not only for speed but also for size.

The best calendar app This is an update from my 2013 five star review. This is the best calendar I've used, much better than Google calendar and Samsung native calendar. It's very user friendly, has lots of options for colors, reminders, recurring events, etc. It syncs perfectly between all devices. I once had a problem setting a recurring event and emailed dev. I received a quick response and answer to my issue. User error on my part. That this dev supports app and provides so many options for free, it's amazing. Thanks Dev!

I have used it for a while and really enjoyed it but today it has deleted one of my calendars and I have lost all my appointments! It was not synced so it could not be a problem with sync. And after the developer responces I am getting I wish I could give a rating of 0/5!

Good calendar app Good calendar - it had the features j was looking for that Google Calendar didn't have. I wanted to be able to copy events (from one calendar to another), and wanted the app to have suggestions based on previous events (even did it for event location). My only complaint would be that when you copy an event, and select a different calendar for the new event, it changes the new event's duration to the duration of the last event used in that calendar.

Almost great, but ultimately a fail.. The bit about having to manually set the size to get it to match up properly with the header is crude, *and* it gets totally confused about size if you rotate your device. I was going to live with the awkward sizing, but the rotation problem is a killer. Too bad the time for a refund has expired.

Best of everthing I tried … and I tried lots of them. Only one thing I miss from another calendar app - a possibility to color-code days (background color) in month view, so I can at the glance view days I work, am out of town etc… PS - for all U who want to change default font color - you can do it in calendar list by long-pressing the calendar name.

PLEASE let me customize the "Day" view by HIDING the annoying and wasteful right pane (e.g. "7 Friday OCT"). I do NOT need it, and it's a complete waste of screen real estate. Please make this an option! I want the entire screen to be used for this day's events. Thank you!

We offered you tech support for a FREE app for a problem that is not even caused by our app. Not sure how that justifies trying to give a rating even below the 1-5 scale.

You should only need to do that once (twice for tablets because of landscape) and only when your launcher is buggy (usually the launcher would send the correct dimensions to the widget).

Great app. I am coming to like it. I would very much appreciate it if it could cache the next/previous view before I need it. ie. load the next of previous month in the month view etc. I like to scroll down and hold the screen to display next few days. You can only do this if you scroll to the next month and then scroll back.This is only an irritation though. Great app.
Great app Would give it a 5 but the only thing is it only stores data for 1 year if you upgrade your phone you lose all your data for 1 year in the past does acalender plus save for a longer period of time as I am about to upgrade my phone and i donr want to have to enter events from over a year ago
Tapir Apps GmbH November 4, 2016
aCalendar is not at all involved in storage and synchronisation of your data. This is a limiation of your cloud service (probably Google Calendar). In total love. BUT......! Widget needs work - doesn't retain whenever turning on phone :( Have to Add & Set-up every single time :(( Using on the Go Launcher Z app. PLS PLS PLS FIX THIS.... love ur app too much to change!!!! Alcatel Idol 4s v6.0
Tapir Apps GmbH November 6, 2016
For technical problems please contact us by email with details. All 5 widgets work fine on all of our test devices. Good but.. Needs work. Needs ability to change colors of markers for birthdays, holidays, etc. Needs ability to change font size for events, etc. Colors are limited and you cannot change a background marker color. It just changes the text color. Sadly Google calendar is better and that's something to be said.
Tapir Apps GmbH October 13, 2016
You can set font size and calendar colors. Different colors for background and foreground are not supported by Android calendar framework and also the Google calendar app doesn't support this. widge also broke down with miui need to set again and again. MORE COMMENTS, the color scheme is very ugly even with purchased content. could you please learn on how to use color plz. function wise, it is ok............. dear team, suggest you shall learn the colour arrangement from june app, even google calendar. your colour is really very engineer
Tapir Apps GmbH October 21, 2016
Maybe you misunderstand something, the calendar colors, today color and main theme color are all customizable by you. The color theme is only ONE color, in different shades. Please contact us by email to support@tapirapps.de if you have any questions. Love it but still getting ads with the ad free! Love this ap, have used it for ages. I'm very particular about week view and this definitely gives me what I want. Would be 5☆ but having paid for ad free, I'm still getting ads. Doubly annoying when they're for aps I already have!
Unreadable Colors Google calendar entries are shown in yellow font on white background. I paid extra for color configurable version but it did work (Nexus 5x)
Tapir Apps GmbH September 25, 2016
You can set the color for each calendar in the calendar list. Used to be 5 star. I loved this calendar until the new update. It takes me twice as long to schedule an event, and makes it too hard to add five minute increments. I'm hating it and thinking of changing.
Tapir Apps GmbH November 2, 2016
Hello, maybe you can send us an email to support@tapirapps.de with some more details on what bothers you - then we can try to help you with this or fix the problem... Acalendar- Android Calendar I don't like it because I can't set my own notification theme, yours are stupid. Also there's only blue and green for monthly colors that are free? Stop nickel and diming everything. Make all colors available! Jorte calendars are better
Tapir Apps GmbH November 1, 2016
Hello, for event notification sounds, you can choose from all available sounds for alarms/notifications/ringtones on your phone. For color coding different events, we recommend to create different calendars - you can do so (and also choose between 48 different colors) in the calendar list. These features are for free... Clean and functional Nice clean format. The only problems seems to originate in android. It's the first calendar app I've seriously considered making my default calendar, and this coming from a former Palm and Zaurus user who is frustrated by the limitations of modern calendars.
Great app and excellent app support Had previously used the app and loved it. Had an issue with the app widget on my new phone and was contacted by the developer and problem (user error) was resolved very quickly. Thanks!
Tapir Apps GmbH October 8, 2016
We're not aware of such a problem, please contact us by email to support@tapirapps.de with details. Love this calendar! Only complaint thus far is that I had to pay 0.99 for holidays in my country to be added, and Halloween was not included. (Oct 31)
Tapir Apps GmbH October 1, 2016
You didn't state which country you are in. We usually include official / federal public holidays. If Halloween falls under this category, please simply write us to support@tapirapps.de. Good but not perfect yet Good customisation options but I wanted a 1x4 widget with a floating week view. Would also prefer entries on month view to have rounded edges for more aesthetic appearance. The ability to delete some holidays and use only one line for birthdays instead of two would also have been good. Going to keep this app for now but looking for a better fit.
Great Calendar Ive tried several different calendars, this one does the job !!! My only complaint is not being able to stop the daily "forcast". Please make that an option!
Great Calendar App This app is very easy to set up and use. I really like the usability and the flow of the app. While there are always little things that are nice to have or wish to have or maybe beneficial, the bottom line is the app does what it states and it does it well. I have faith in the developers that they will work to add features as they move forward.
Why the advertisement? This is a really great app but what still annoys me is that the Amazon advertising is popping up so frequently when I want to put something into my calendar. I bought the plus version so why do I still get bothered by this? Edit : that's the thing if I look into the help section my version is shown as ecalendar plus but I still get the advertisement. I have to say I got it from the Amazon app store and not from Google play
Tapir Apps GmbH November 16, 2016
Then you have the Amazon underground version. It's not aCalendar showing ads there but Amazon underground shows ads on startup our closing apps installed through Amazon underground. That's the deal when you want premium apps for free from Amazon. If you bought aCalendar+, make sure to get the regular paid app version. Customer Interaction... Developers? Only installed to write this review, but so far so good. Anyway, I've bn reading thru other's reviews & specifically the DEVELOPER'S responses. If u are going to put urself out there with anything that involves human interaction and feedback, be prepared to accept not only the good criticism, but also the bad. Some of your responses are pretty sarcastic in my opinion & that's a big turn off when deciding which app from which developers to use. With that said, ur app has big potential. Keep it up.
Made life much easier - until reminders started going missing! I love this free app, but important reminders are going missing frequently. Any suggestions?
Tapir Apps GmbH October 15, 2016
Yes, please contact us by email to support@tapirapps.de with details of the events where notifications are missing. The Best! What more can I say? I'm very picky about calendars, and this is by far my favorite.
The best! Long-time user and never disappointed in how well this calendar functions. It's WAY easier to use than Google calendar. I wouldn't change a thing.
My Favorite Calendar app I love this app! This is my go-to calendar. It has a great interface, lots of options and settings to customize.
Tapir Apps GmbH May 28, 2016
ACalendar shows ads about once a week, we have no direct control on the ad content, but we do block all sensitive ad categories plus a few we consider questionable. You can always go for the ad-free in-app purchase or aCalendar+ to remove ads altogether. I'll try to find the ad in the admob review center to block the publisher. Best! Best cal app BY FAR. I have to constantly keep track of 10 diff drs, work schedule, 2nd work schedule, family visits, friend events, etc. It's so helpful and easy to use and look at. I only wish there were a wider array of colors to choose from for the events!
Really Like This I got a replacement phone and had to locate this calendar! Simple to use, get to see friends faces on their birthdays, no complaints. :-)
Intrested until There is no point in taking my point of view and putting it on. I have been search in for the right planner for me. I love my paper one, but it does not signal me to do something. I started using planner pro and it is awesome. Please don't not try it. For it can be awesome to those who like it!!!
A pretty good calendar Very easy to use. It used to show holidays but i cannot find or select that feature from settings. It used to be there.
Tapir Apps GmbH November 2, 2016
Hello, you can still add holidays in the calendar list - just tap on the + icon next to the menu. Great Calendar I use it every day and it works great for me. I love that it updates all of my calendars
Very happy with this app Very true to Google Calendar and like the week view. I may end up upgrading.
Can't use as separate calender Made me purchase an app. Will not let me add events unless synced to my current calender. Waste of time.
Tapir Apps GmbH October 26, 2016
All calendar apps access the Android calendar storage. Why would you want to use two different apps for calendaring? aCalendar (plus version or business feature pack) offers profiles to separate your private and business calendars. IMO Best Calendar App for Android I have tried several Calendar apps but this one is by far the best.
Needs some more work. Could the developers look at DigiCal. I have purchased acalendar but I think this is a better option. Please could you give us an option of the month view with a daily agenda at the bottom of the screen.
Great app Can not fault this app. Best I've tried and I've tried a lot. Does everything I need and more. Just installed on a new phone and lost my colour options hence only a 3 star rating now.
Sorry guys I downloaded becuase i need to sync my table and 2 phones this said it would do it but it doesn't. The set up of it is nice just didn't do what i was looking for
Tapir Apps GmbH October 20, 2016
Synchronization between devices is provided by your cloud service, e.g. Google calendar or MS Exchange. aCalendar is compatible to any cloud service. At no point do we claim to provide synchronization - aCalendar is a user interface to the Android calendar storage. A+++ Calendar It is simply the most comprehensive, intuitive calendar for Android. Developer is very accessible. Thank you.
Tapir Apps GmbH October 9, 2013
aCalendar (like all calendar apps) works on the Android calendar storage which in turn syncs with Google.
Probably you just need to activate birthdays in the calendar list of aCalendar.
Otherwise please contact us by email to support@tapirapps.de Bug? Lately the first day of week is the current day instead of Monday, as I have set in settings.
Tapir Apps GmbH November 2, 2016
Please contact our support by email to support@tapirapps.de with screenshots of this problem, we never heard of this. Review deleted
