Great for a busy family!

We love our Skylight Calendar! Even when we’re not using it for the calendar, lists, etc, it looks great hanging on our wall displaying a slideshow of photos.
I do love this product, but I have one idea for improvement. It would be great to have a voice feature that would allow a person to add calendar events or chores without having to manually type them in.
Mostly is good, but a few annoyances make you wish for more

Overall, I like our Skylight. It is a clean and efficient way for the family to see what’s going on, keep track of chores and grocery lists, etc. And it does those things well.
Where it fails is in the control you have over lists and chores once they are entered. There is NO WAY to sort your lists! That’s right, if you want to use the grocery list for shopping, you cannot then organize it so you can use it as a pick list in the store. Fail. Also, the chore lists cannot be sorted. So if you want to have an ordered list of chores or tasks for the kids, you have to put them in order as you type them. Annoying.
Also, the “email yourself calendar stuff” only works sometimes. Not enough to trust it. Apparently you should get a confirmation email that it worked or didn’t work. I have never received one.
Finally, I wish you could subscribe to the Skylight calendar. I use iCal on my iPhone, so if someone adds something to the Skylight, I have no way of seeing it. You can apparently do 2-way sync if you use a Google calendar, but for those of us who prefer iOS, we are out of luck.
Again, these might be minor gripes, but they are things that should work or be tweaked in my opinion. All in all, I am happy with the Skylight. If the above won’t annoy you, it will be a great addition to your home.
It was an AMAZING addition to our busy home and family of 5!! It linked seamlessly with my iCal and calendar subscriptions for sports teams. The chore function is great for the kiddos, and great for reminding me(mom.)
