Calendar Snooze for Android
It used to be a 5 star app, but since the new ad provider came I am getting ads even with the paid version. Really annoying especially when on mobile data. Please fix this.
Why oh why do people break things that worked just fine before?! So many things wrong with this program... Uninstalling what was once a truly useful utility. Disappointed
Worked flawlessly ... until the update! Now rarely if ever does it speak events ... if it happens work with a recurring event then it reminds me on only the 1st event and doesn't do anything for the next recurrences. Looking forward to the resolution because this was one of the best apps in my Samsung Galaxy S7 edge with nougat.
it was a GREAT app until for a LONG time, suddenly around May 2017 stopped firing notifications! i gave up..., calendar notifications should be close to 100% reliable, i am getting notifications randomly and no more than 10% of the time.
UPDATE: I was giving the settings one last shot before uninstalling. I unchecked Notify Smart Watch, and turned on speech in Reminder Settings, and now my voice notifications seem to be working to some extent. Sometimes it's a full minute or more after the reminder fires that I get the voice announcement, sometimes it's immediate, but it's something at least. Had an HTC phone once with the option to get voice notification of my calendar appointments, and was lost when my next phone didn't have that feature. Calendar Snooze fixed that, and I've had it on all my phones for years now. HOWEVER the most recent update has broken speech function! Now it's just a minor extension of the stock Calendar app capabilities not worth the memory space. I'll give them a few weeks to see if it gets fixed. If not, I'll be uninstalling.
I absolutely LOVED this app before the last update. But now it DOESN'T SPEAK the REMINDERS which was the best of its many great abilities. AND it has lost its attractive layout. On Samsung Galaxy s7
Excellent app using since many years. Purchased since long time still its showing ads. Purchased via in app. Please update the major bug asap and receive 5 stars. Using galaxy s8.
Landscape is horrible. Trying to scroll to select "dismiss" selects a snooze time instead. Dismiss is off screen, HORRIBLE. Needs to have dismiss on screen when it pops up, should NOT have to scroll!!!
Used to be great. Now doesn't work anymore, not sure if it's my ZTE Axon 7 or something else.
NO support. Paid version broken. Impossible to get refund. CAVEAT EMPTOR
Speech not working. What happened to this once great app??
Some events are not firing alerts or reminders. Android S7 Nougat
This app was great before the update that made the speech stop working.
The thing rocks !
No longer works and paid key no longer recognized. F'ing developer no longer responding. IHATE YOU
I don't like this last update it messed up everything I loved about it. During the reminder, I can't read anything in the title of the Reminder, it's like the font size was set to 1 or something. The audible reminder continues even though I tapped the Dismiss or Snooze buttons. So if I get a reminder in a quiet place, it will continue to read out, "Doug, you have an appointment in one hour thirty minutes". Annoying! Nexus 6 on T-Mobile.
Something is still wrong with this app. It used to be great but since the latest updates it no longer works at the correct appointment time. I've been in touch with the author and offered my services to test any future beta versions for them. Fingers crossed it will get corrected because when it works it's absolutely amazing
Update May 18, 2017--This is an app that I have relied on every day for years. It is the best calendar alarm on the market. It wakes me in the morning, reminds me to pay taxes and bills on time and makes sure I don't miss appointments or forget something that has to get done. Problems introduced 2 months ago with major revision were quickly addressed and the app is better than ever with a bunch of great new features. Update Mar. 23, 2017--recent revision broke app. Orig. Review: Fantastic-does everything I need it to do to keep me on schedule. After using free version for a week with no problems I upgraded to get rid of ads.
I used the free version for 3 years or so and it worked perfectly. Decided to buy the full version because I had been so happy with the free and decided that it was only fair to finally pay the developer. Since I've installed the paid version, I've missed several appointments and reminders because the paid version only seems to work randomly. I've sent two complaints to the developer and all I get back is an automated message that says "we'll get back to you." I AM BEYOND PISSED AT THIS POINT.
I used to love this app. But it stopped working when Android 6 was released. Over a year later and the app still hasn't been fixed. I recently upgraded my phone to Android 7 and nothing has changed. Over 50% of the time the app does not notify or remind me of calendar events. Even though I have the paid version it still shows ads. I've filed several trouble tickets with the developers but never hear back from them.
Have always used this app. Been brilliant. Still using free version. Updated it, now voice notification still carries on even after dismissing the notification. Everyone in the office knows when I need to pay bills!
Many bug in latest version using in Samsung S8. Missed many appointment and snooze not functioning
Had to downgrade my rating as it will not see I purchased the license if it can't get to the internet everytime I have a reminder. I want my money back...
This used to be great until the last update. I used it for years. Now, with the ongoing notifications, they are always on top, taking up all the visible notification space. At least have it as an option not to use ongoing notifications.
A really cool way to get notifications about a calendar event, speaking to you as if it was your personal assistant.
Like this app, but it just hung up a call when a reminder popped up :(
I keep my work calendar sync'ed with my Android calendar and this really helps me keep from missing meetings when I get busy away from my desk. Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but I was sure the old version showed the meeting location in the reminder. The new one does not, which is a shame. I shouldn't need to go to another screen to find that while I'm heading to a meeting. 5 stars if it included location. For those getting a ton of old reminders, there is a setting for that. Maybe it's new with the new version. I just found it myself while looking for a solution to no location.
This Calendar Snooze app has been extremely helpful. When I retired my ancient LG phone to a new Samsung Galaxy S5, I was so upset that I could not get the settings the way I wanted; i.e. continuous alerts, louder volume and different alert sounds. With this app, I am able to get that and customize my appointment alerts to go off and dismiss when I'm done. So far, it's very dependable! Thank you
This app has been good addition to Calendar but mine has started shutting down, too, and still doing it with the new upgrade. I was trying to clear a back log of old reminders created (not sure why) but REALLY Disappointed that the symbol for repeating reminders is missing from the edit view. Hope you can put it back please.
When I first installed, it was great. Now it fails to fire or fails to repeat or closes without offering the option to repeat. It's also started requesting telephone access (why?), denying which hides the app screen behind an unclosable page prompting you to give the app such access permission and preventing operation of the app. No longer usable.
PLEASE GO BACK TO OLD VERSION! It was working fine! Now I can't see my reminder of it's more than two words long. I'm going to find a new app if you don't fix this.
There's an old saying: if it ain't broke, don't fix it. New version has a location marker obscuring part of the header. For some reason you are repeating the snooze button options with a dropdown, thus wasting valuable screen real estate - why? The colour options are too bright (could you only spare one byte for the colour?). Now it looks like a child's toy version, without subtlety. What was wrong with the way it looked before? Please rethink the way it looks.
Edited down from 5 stars. Great app, I gladly paid for the pro version, but new design is cumbersome and distracting. Has started randomly firing reminders long after the event; no response to my help ticket. Disabled and installed Calendar Notifications Plus instead.
Used to give speech alerts as advertised, now they don't work after the latest updates. Tried removing and reinstalling, still the same problem. Main reason I installed (and purchased the key) was for speech alerts - please fix this!
The old version worked so much better at snoozing (the whole reason for the app). The new features are broken. When I snooze from my watch or from the notification on the lock screen or pull down, the alarm never goes off again after the snooze time.
I like this app. Use it all the time. The new update is cool. However the digital link for numbers is not linking to the phone dial. Please update. Also the written reminder is abbreviated in the reminder dialogue box when in landscape. Allow full content to show
This used to be the best. Lately I get phantom alerts after dismissing one. Pesky notification sound/vibration but nothing to dismiss & have to reboot. I get no response to help requests to the developer
Downgraded to 1 star after i nearly died while trying to dismiss a meeting. In old versions you could dismiss them with one swipe to the right, without looking at the screen. Not so much with 4.0, especially while driving. Orig review: If you upgrade to 4.0 from an old version, you have to remove app and reinstall else voice notifications stop working.
Horrendous update, should've listened to others and stayed with the old version. Hint to developer: when I reschedule a reminder to another day, the original one should go away. Also, what happened to swiping sideways? Oh, and the graphics are UGLY now too.

•I want old Calendar Snooze back! •Shows event Title in too small a font. •Location not displayed w/o button press & even that dosn't work! •No DISMISS button on top for landscape (needed for driving). •'FOR' button gives all options along with other buttons, so why the wasted-space dropdown of alarm choices in the middle? Space should be used to expand Title & add Location. •'FOR' button wheel used to scroll AND accept number input. Now, no number input! • Voice message continues after pressing DISMISS button. •No SETTINGS menu on Notification screen, as there used to be. •The new programmers should have left this app alone! •I made a change, too...from 5
