Calendar events are read-only on your Android device. You may not create or update events on your device and sync them back to Shutterfly.
QUICK START
1. Launch the Shutterfly Calendar app.
2. Click ”Add Account”
3. Choose “Shutterfly Calendar Sync” from the “Add an account” menu.

That’s it! The initial sync may take a few minutes, depending upon the number of calendars you have and your internet connection speed. After the sync is complete you can view your events in your Android calendar app.

I paid the $0.99 and added the app to my phone I added my Shutterfly account and in the sync area it says the sync is not available at this time. Very disappointed and I hope somebody will get back to me in regards to this as I have already tried to email the creator
Why would you spend money for something that NEVER works? It's very ANNOYING and FRUSTRATING - spend all this time creating calendars and they won't sync to phone.....UUGGH! I agree they need to create an app like shortly share for Apple. :(
The description says they've fixed sync errors but I'm still getting them. Paid for nothing. Extremely disappointed. If the product is no longer being developed, it should be taken out of the store.
Dont think it works anymore?
This app does not work at all for me. It states sync is having a problem and will be back shortly. Please fix this app it's a waste of a dollar. Update: I also tried to email the supposed support they have for this and the email address came back undeliverable several times.
No longer syncs with Shutterfly. Also developer help link is not valid.
Paid the money but won't sync to a s4. Waste
Does not work
Continual "Sync error" message. My phone is a S7 Edge.
Won't sync on my LG
Wont sync.
I have not been able to sync in months. I deleted, reinstalled and it still won't work. What the heck!!!
Downloaded and paid for it and it won't sync keeps getting error
The sync does not stay on. In order to keep the calendar sync up to date, i continuously have to log in through the calendar settings. I would have to do this multiple times per day. I don't understand why shutterfly can't just create a share app like the one they have for apple????
I have a samsung galaxy s5. I was excited to download this app. However every time I try to sync my shutterfly calendar, it says "sync is currently experiencing problems, try back later". I uninstalled the app a few times & tried to reinstall it. Very disappointed.
Found a way to sync shuttering calendar without this app that is free.
I have the latest version as of (4/28/14). I am running the app on my android OS version 4.3. The account keeps disappearing. I have recreated it three times now. Useless until this is fixed. I was unaware of the samsung bug. I will give it another try and amend my review accordingly.
You can subscribe to SF calendars via GCal without this, but I was looking for a GUI for non-tech moms. It's having trouble talking to Shutterfly. Boots me to the 'wrong pw' screen, try again and it hangs. What I really want to do is sync, not just view (er, crossload & download). Misleading app name.
_______________Update: Had some initial issues with cancelled events, but that has been fixed in the update - 1.0.3. Also, being able to select which Site Calendars to sync is now and option. With all that said, I am adjusting my rating to 5 stars! ____________________Moto X - Android 4.4 Considering there are no other apps to speak of, this works for the most part. One glitch that I have noticed: When a single event is cancelled within a recurring sequence, all the future events get cancelled as well, even if the online Shutterfly calendar shows that it is not. Like the fact that you can customize the colors for each site calendar. But again, it would be nice to select which Share Sites you sync. After sports seasons are done, no need to have them sync any longer.
I've got three kids. Between classroom sites and sports teams its hard to keep track of all the events. This rally helps.

I just purchased and downloaded this app (version 1.0.11) to my Droid Turbo. Setup account but it fails to sync. Keep getting error: "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." Is this error with Shutterfly or the App? Great concept, great interface based upon screenshots on app page in Play Store....but terrible execution at this point.
