Software Reviews and Criticism

  Great app but wish I could change more fonts

  Pendo is simple to use and easy to organize and sync with my calendar. I’m not much for journals so can’t comment on that feature except to remind people it exists. Things I don’t like: the tiny font and color for dates in the main screen for the calendar, though simple in appearance which is good, the light gray in the tabs is really hard to see well on even a iPhone plus. Sure, I am getting older but I have my eyes checked every year and I don’t need bifocals to read yet! I’d use pendo more on my phone if I could control the tab color to help with contrast and change most default fonts and their color between day and night mode. Glad the option is there with notes, etc. But overall despite the truly elegant design, to me the fonts and tabs I can’t tweak ultimately cause eye strain and rather quickly. I’m not saying everyone of a certain age will have this issue. But It would keep from squinting if I could make the calendar font at least a different color for improved contrast and clarity and of course the tabs are great unicolored but if I could make the gray darker in day mode and a completely different yet unobtrusive color in night mode I could actually see them with ease.

  Great app for everything or one specific thing

  I, personally, use the app as a journal/baby book for my daughter. I enter in events with photos, stats like weight/height, funny little things she says, etc. It really does make a great little timeline of her life, plus it continually back-up itself, so I don't accidentally lose anything. I love that you can categorize everything with tags and search for one type like all events or if I just want to see her growth pattern. Another huge plus is editing a journal entry doesn't change the entry date like some note apps. I can see how it would be great for an everyday/everything use also. It would be neat to see Pendo come out with a feature where you could create multiple journals.

  help please

  best note&remind app just one small issue:this would be the perfect app if you add'to do''s remind function to 'note'/'note''s functions to 'to do' /make it so that a repeated calender displays as 1 calender rather than as many as the repeated times(for instance,if i set a calender for 9.11 and 9.12,it displays as 2 calenders:1 on 9.11 and 1 on 9.12) currently there are ways of setting a reminder and none of them is perfect:using to do,problem: cannot add images or use 'pencil' functions of note(like underlying);using note,set a tag ,create a to do with reminder and the same tag,when the reminder shows up,look for the note with the same tag,problem:it does not indicate the content when the reminder comes up and takes more time ;using a calender,problem:1 calender displays as many calenders as the times it repeats,ergo,1 calender may display as lots of calenders hence making it impossible for me to get the overview of all to dos. personally i think it is the easiest to deal with the issue by calender:just add an option for displaying 1 calender as 1 calender instead of as many as it is repeated. looking forward to hearing from you.

  This was what I was looking for

  I have been in and out of so many calendars over the years and I think I may have finally found the one I've been looking for. The journal, notes, and calendar fits in so well and I can finally use them all in one place. I wish we could have a drawing feature like in the notes app that lets us freely hand draw into our notes. I think that would be an extra cool customization feature. Other than that, this app is really nice. Its so easy to add new dates with commands and organize things with titles and tags. It also has a really useful search feature too. You should give it a try! I’m glad I did :)

  Like "Bullet Journal" For IOS

  I'm a big fan of the ease of use and utility of Ryder Carroll's "Bullet Journal" system, but it has some big hurdles for me. I don't usually have my notebook with me (it isn't pocket-friendly), and my hand-written notes aren't easily searchable. Pendo has, for me, the same sort of ease of use (quickly get down a variety of input: notes, journal entries, to-dos), I always have it with me (iPhone), and searching can be accomplished easily by drilling down through entry type, tags, or the very specific and accurate "search" function. Everything is synced up via iCloud, and backups are saved via email. I can still use my fancy notebook for doodly ideas and such, but important content goes into Pendo now.
