Good idea but very limited in terms of app functionality - there's no link to other calendars like outlook, you can't even add events to your diary from the app ( you have to go to the website, which isn't great to use on a phone) and the events/scenarios are very limited. For example, under "making and attending appointments" there's only help with making an appointment, nothing to do with attending. I guess the value is mainly in the support aspect rather than the app.

Recently diagnosed with ASD. This was recommended by DSA to help with uni course. It's incredible. Everything takes less time, and uses far less energy. I've bullet journalled for years - and this feels a lot like a virtual bullet journal (minus the collections, plus solutions and support). It's taken a couple of weeks to get used to, and there's plenty more for me to add untill it's functioning at it's best for me. I'll report annoyances as further suggestions for improvement as I find them.

I'm sure the app is useful for some people, but the fact the calendar can't integrate with any other calender system like Google or outlook (meaning you have to duplicate event single event manually into BiH), makes it absolutely unuseable for me.It also lets you create lists of solutions to problems, but there's no functionality to "tick" them off, you have to go look at your log to see what you've clicked or not.Everything on the app requires a huge number of taps to navigate to.TooExpensive!
