I used to hand write all my events on a big calendar at home (I’m 43 - NOT a boomer) and a few things fell through the cracks. This makes me feel so much more organized. No more scratching things out in pen and running out of room. No more forgetting to take a picture of our hand written grocery list that stays on our fridge. It’s all on my phone in the app. My husband now adds things to the grocery list before he forgets to tell me. The plus plan really is worth it. I love seeing photos that stay on my phone for years without being seen by anyone. I recommend this to all my friends.
This is not an overstatement. So much mental load off me knowing others in my household are seeing our schedule several times a day and can now help manage our household
The ability to upload pictures is wonderful. The List function needs improvement - specifically the ability to either sort the items (alphabetize or even categorize) within a single list. A workaround with multiple lists as subcategories for a single list (such as "grocery produce", "grocery deli", "grocery dry goods" is too challenging to navigate to be functional. We have since returned to our free grocery list app with ads for this need. The Chores function has been quite helpful with keeping the kids on track. Still trying to marry the 'category' functionality with are pre-existing paradigm of different google calendars, but I think we are making it work.
This has helped my family be more aware of what is going on in each other's schedules and we love it! It's very user friendly, easy to sync calendars, and beautiful. 100% recommend.
