Short story:
Good for tasks and scheduling. Bad for homework and projects.
Long Story:
So I really enjoyed this calendar when I first downloaded it at the end of last semester. I enjoyed it so much that I bought the paid version so that I could have more classes on there thinking that even after finals it would be useful. The problem with this is that it doesnt quite do what I want it to. Yes, it has 5 or so different calendars so you can have classes/homework on one and clubs on another, but the calendars are too crowded. Theres no option to view only the day and things that are due that day. Instead it only allows you to view one event under the calendat and you have to scroll in order to read the others.
Another thing I dont like about this app is that after tasks are completed, they dont hide, turn a different color, or go to the bottom of the list. Im testing out different apps to keep track of homework and one of them allows all the completed tasks to either be hidden or moved to the bottom, while tasks that are due within the next couple days, or are high priority, turn red and are moved to the top of the list. I prefer that style, because I dont care how high of a priority "Homework_2" was, when I finished Homework_2 last week. It needs to move down and make room for the next set of homework.
The things I do like and use with this app are: the ability to have different backgrounds for differently labeled calendars, the reminder which causes my iPod to alert me that things are coming up, and the sync with my google calendar. I wish it would sync all my google calendars (including the ones people share with me) because all those events are important in my life and I also wish that it would sync each google calendar with a certain calendar created on the app itself so that all my calendars are synced.
Over all I would say the calendar aspect is good and that this app is good for tasks and event scheduling, but that its only worth the money if you already have a second app for homework and such.
