Crashes on iPad
Fails to load correctly on iPad.

Wasted my money! UGH!
Wasted my time too, trying to figure out how it works! Plus it charged me for purchase twice! Beware!!! I saw some mixed reviews. Perhaps some people have emailed & received instructions from the developer, but if it's that difficult to figure out, it's really not useable.

Useful but buggy
This app solves the problem of how to copy and paste an event on the Calendar, which Apple's built-in app incredibly does not support. However, the app search function causes the app to crash. Sigh.
2014-07-29
It works
Since the latest update, everything works perfectly except search. It crashes when you search for an event. I give it 5 stars, because I know they will fix this like all previous versions

Worthless!
A complete waste of money!! I want a refund!! Won't do anything it says its supposed to do!

This app does not work at all
From what I can tell, the app takes over the "repeat" function from iCal. If you attempt to set up a customized repeat in Calendar Tools, then the repeat function is no longer visible from i Cal.
The home screen on Calendar Tools lists "events" by date that are taken from iCal. You can filter them according to date or event. You can see either see appointments according to days between two dates you specify, or you can see them according to the type ("x meeting").
From the home screen, you can click on an event ("x" meeting) and then add a "custom recurrence". You can specify 3rd Tuesday of the month; 2nd Friday of the month on a repeat daily/weekly/monthly basis. However, when you click "Done" nothing happens, so you cannot save the custom repeat. In effect, the very feature for which you buy this app does not function.
Also, the app states in the FAQ that you can either add an event in iCal or in Calendar Tools with custom repeats. This is inaccurate on both accounts. If you open up iCal, you get the standard repeat options that comes with it (none, daily, weekly, 2 weeks, monthly, or yearly). If you open up Calendar Tools to add an event, you get the exact same options - no customizable repeats as advertised.
In short, this app is a waste of money - it does not do what it is advertised to do. Don't buy it.
I put in a request to Appiplayer to refund my money. If they are at all reputable and refund my money, or make the fixes to make this app functional the way it is advertised, I will add their response to my review and report the outcome. It's such a crazy thing that getting customized repeats is such an elusive function when it is available so readily on other platforms. Frustrated.

Limited options
Doesn't work for me. I can't enter an event in January 2013, it is not that far out. Looks like you just can enter events in the current calendar year. Also, I use multiple calendars and I just see one of them. Last I can't look or adjust events past 2012.
It needs to address years, otherwise useless.

Crashes
Bought this app to customize recurring events. DOES NOT WORK. Crashes every time.
2012-07-02
Awful App
Burn your money before buying this app. Awful app. Since purchasing, my entire calendar has been wiped out, there are no "custom features" even visible without going through massive gyrations. Tech support actually answered an email but failed to answer my question about custom recurrence, how to filter events and more....all they did was explain how to close the app from the multitask bar. Really?
Anyway, save your cash and avoid this app.

Waste of time and money!
This app is AWFUL!!! Don't be duped. All I needed was to be able to copy an event from one date to the next as recurring events continue over time but not on regular days. I wasted $6 on this app where you have to count out how many days the event is in the future, instead of just picking the stupid date! My events are always 30 to 60 days at a time, so I may as well spend my time creating a new event rather than count days and trust my math is right. A COMPLETE WASTE!!!!!

Mr.
Had a bit of trouble at first but support was very helpful. They got me going with clear instructions which included screenshots after 3 email exchanges. They appreciated my suggestions on how to make instructions clear and said they are working on it. After learning to navigate the app it is really helpful and is all it says it is. With clearer instructions I would give it 5 stars.

Don't Buy
This app does NOT do complex recurring events
2012-02-14
Limited
App does let you custom create repeating events but will not give you access to all events as it claims. The app only gives you access to events of the current month which is very limiting.
2012-01-12
Excellent add-on to my iPhone calendar.
It allows to schedule multiple alarms for appointments.
2011-12-22
Brilliant App
This is exactly what I’ve wanted. It fixes many shortcomings of iCal. Thanks very much.
2011-11-28
Wow!
Great add-on. I can handle recurring events easily now.
2011-11-27
Poor App
This app does not do what it claims. It changes dates of your appointments and puts them into your calendar at what appears to be random places.
2011-10-08
Good App
But it is missing 2 features that I should think are rather obvious.
1) Custom recurrences cannot recur annually. So you can't set up an event like a holiday that happens on the same day of the week every year, like say, Easter or President's Day. Luckily the app "US Holidays - Add them all to your Calendar" will do just that for you automatically, as well as having options for religious holidays too.
2) You can delete individual occurrences of events, but you cannot delete an event and just tell it to delete all future occurrences as well. Luckily Week View Express can do that, and it's free.
The above functions were really te reasons I bought this app. It seemed certain that it would do both of those things, but it does not. It's great I suppose if you have a problem with duplicate events or you need to set up weird recurrences that are weekly or monthly. But I don't, so those other 2 apps I mentioned worked far better for me at a fraction of the cost.

Love this program
I migrated from a Compaq iPAQ 2200 series to an iPOD Touch as a PDA and handheld computer. The calendar and a PPC program called Calendar + allowed me to do complex repeats (e.g. 3rd Thursday of each month). When I got to the iPOD's calendar and found that I couldn't do that I was really disappointed. Enter Calendar Tools. It does everything I could do on the iPAQ.
The author(s) say that this is an add-on to the native calendar app. I'm glad of this; I find the views in the native app better than the views in Calendar Tools. Just my taste there. I also like that I can switch back and forth between them for certain kinds of tasks and know that my data will be accessable in both.
Beyond the possibility of complex recurrences, there is another function that I love in Calendar Tools: I can look up appointments alphabetically. If I know that I shceduled a meeting with John Smith but can't remember the date, I can look up "John Smith meeting." That was something I couldn't do before.
The most confusing thing I found was in setting up a complex recurrence: when the event is initially set, you are given the choice of somekind of simple recurrence or no recurrence. You need to choose somekind of simple recurrence, finish the event and then choose that event, tap on the box on the upper right of the main screen screen and edit the recurrence to a custom recurrence. It took me about 15 minutes to figure that one out.
That being said, the learning curve isn't that steep and the functionality is worth it. I heartily reccomend this app.

Love it!
Initially I thought it didn't do as stated (customized repeat feature) But in less then 30 seconds I figured it out. Love the the fact that it works with the iPad calendar and alarm. As soon as I opened it all my appointments appeared.
2011-07-11
Good, but
I like that I can setup reoccurring events. However, I thought that the custom alarm setting controlled the ringer sound. It does not. Wish there was this function to have different alarms.

Time Saver
I have been using my mac to setup custom repeat rules and then sync to my iPad. With this tools, I can do it on my iPad. It becomes more convenient to use the native calendar.
2011-06-15
No good, don't waste your $
This app is not useful. Does not do what it says. No guide at website. Does not work with iPad calendar. Wish I could get a refund
2011-06-09
Thank You!
I really like this app. It does just what I need. I can now easily set up birthday or anniversary alerts on the iPhone. Choose an anniversary from address book and create two alerts. The first is one week before. It is time for me to prepare gifts. The second is on the date of this anniversary. I will never miss a birthday or anniversary again.
2011-06-07
Great!
On my iPad, finally I can set repeating events to 1st Tuesday every month.
