Today, we share an important milestone in the evolution of Readdle's journey. Our commitment to improving your time-management experience has led us to a key decision: the sunset of Calendars 5.
This move isn't just about closing a chapter; it's also about starting a new one as we aim to simplify and enhance our users’ experience with the planner app, Calendars. We're transitioning away from Calendars 5 to focus on this unified approach.
The legacy of Calendars 5
We understand that having multiple app versions can be confusing, and we aim to make things simple and seamless for you. Our decision to sunset Calendars 5 is driven by a desire to streamline and simplify your experience.
For over ten years, Calendars 5 has stood as a testament to Readdle's innovation. Since its launch, it has offered features that stand out in the crowded space of productivity apps, such as intuitive natural language input and a straightforward interface. Thanks to its attention to detail, Calendars 5 was recognized by The Verge for delivering a reliable and impressive user experience. More than just helping you keep track of your schedule, Calendars 5 aims to support your broader goals and aspirations.
Though we're moving on from Calendars 5, we encourage you to look at the journey it's been on. They've contributed to our understanding of what makes an effective time management tool.
