How good is the calendar app? Can anyone comment on the Calendar application?

The Calendar function that comes with the iPod Touch is pretty basic: You add appointments by clicking on the "+" sign up in the upper right hand corner and you can add "title," "location," "start & end" times (though you can only go in 5-minute increments i.e. 1:00, 1:05, 1:10....etc.); set event to "Repeat"--daily, weekly, every 2-weeks, monthly, yearly; set an audible "Alert"--5, 15, 30-minutes before or 1,2-hours before or 1,2-days before, or on the date of event. And you can add detailed "Notes" on the event as well. You can view "list"--which lists all of your appointments; "day"--that lists the current day or the day you select by the hour and shows any appointments that you've added; "month"--shows you the monthly view, the current day is selected but you may choose any day and that will highlight so there's a viewable difference, and any appointments that you've added will have a "dot" on them. When you highlight that date a brief description will show up on the bottom of the screen. It's pretty decent though I still use my cell phone to put in appointments because I don't always have my Ipod around. There's also a "contact" app on the ipod where you can store name, addresses, phone numbers, email address and website URL's, a photo for the person, and an open field to add whatever. this is my first iPod and I love it. As long as you have a wifi connection you can really take advantage of the many apps that are available--most for free or a one time fee of .99-2.99--you don't need a wifi to use the "calendar" or "contacts" app--so you can skip the high fees from cell phones and data plans! There might be a fancier calendar app available for download but I haven't looked into that. Sorry if you get two posts from me, but my first response didn't show all of the details so I had to edit it!

Unfortunately the calendar for 2014 wasn't signed. I tried getting his signed 2015 calender when it first came out on DistrictLine.com/JoeyGraceffa, but they were all sold out. Your best bet if you want a signed 2015 calender would be to go on DistrictLine.com/JoeyGraceffa. They're a little more expensive, but there should be some in stock. Also more Joey merch there. Not to make anyone stray away from Amazon.com though :|

Depends on what you want, of course. It's more useful and functional than a keypad-only phone. Calendar is fine, I had no trouble with alarms etc. I used it as my mp3 player for a while, so that works well too. But it is NOT a smart/android phone -- just looks like one. Ultimately, it works fine for calling, keeping appts, playing music and maybe texting -- though I didn't like the virtual keyboard very much.

Yes.The only issue with them is that they stick out above the number (not the problem). The problem comes in where there is a holiday or other special day that is used in conjunction with yesterday, today tomorrow cards. It's a little annoying, but not a deal breaker. We LOVE this calendar and my daughter has grown in her ability to use it on her own.

There were various calendars in the software but they seem to all be templates - none of which I could work with. I was looking to make a customized 11X17 calendar which I could fold and staple. I saw no way this program could even come close to fitting my needs. I'm not the brightest guy in the world - but I'm no dummy either. This limited software did not even meet my minimal expectations.

For the record, why are you dumping the iphone? Let me know how the missing sync works. Do you use it for calendar, memos etc.?

It has been worth the buy for me. It wasn't hard to learn. I use online manual for questions. Customer service has been excellent by phone and via e-mail. Also, I got $50 back as a discount for signing up for an event they sponsor. Once I figured things out which was almost in one day, with some feature I need to figure out here and there. It has saved me a lot of time. I highly recommend this program.

Wilbur...I am not familiar with the fact that a calendar & contact list are "required". I didn't have this issue as well as having to enter e-mail address and password to access the software. If you think you are having issues with the software try uninstalling and then install again. Otherwise, you may have bad software and will need to contact Amazon or Individual Software. I have found 'AnyTime' to be glitchy and fraught with problems, so no surprises when I read others having issues. Poor quality product. Good luck!

I use it as a one year "rolling" calendar. Months are pre-written, just add appropriate year to see out one year from current month.

Yes you can and it's a fairly simple process. Instead, however, I would recommend going to this site and it is magnificent at creating calendars with various that you may want or need: http://www.calendarlabs.com/printable-calendar.php?template=tL1mA W Radle

While I like the Pre 2 because it's simple and easy to use (and I still use it), I would not purchase it again. Apps are available but do not seem as plentiful as the ones offered from Apple of Windows. My suggestion would be to research it a little more than relying on the answers given here.

I have the rx5915, it has a calendar similar to Microsoft Outlook, since it runs Windows Mobile, also it has a Pocket Excel, Powerpoint and Word. Got it because it was a combination PDA, GPS unit, GPS works very well.

Since this is an Android based device, there are any number of apps on Google Play for Hunting/Fishing calendar, Lunar tables, Tide charts, etc. Just make sure to get one that can store all the data off line, since it doesn't have a cellular chip in it, so you don't have to worry about it not being able to update. I purchased mine to use for my job installing high speed wireless data networks for oil and gas and for hiking.

Currently the App is only compatible with Apple products, but they are in the process of working on launching an Android equivalent app. Let me know if you have other questions, thanks

Brandon is right. I love mine too, but the only person who cares enough to create and update apps for this is Tarek from Wazapp (so you can connect to the Whatsapp server). I'm using it in Zimbabwe and it works well in cities with lots of 'service' but once I'm out of town, others still have 'service' on older phones and mine won't pick up a thing :( But I do still love the look and feel and I won't graduate to windows or iphone, so not sure what's next. Cheers!
