TOP INSIGHTS

A weekly roundup of TimeTree: Shared Calendar's key feedback

1

Confusing Recurrence Setup

Users find the recurrence setup for events confusing, particularly the phrasing used for biweekly events. Approximately 5% of users are affected by this issue, leading to misunderstandings about event scheduling.

The recurrence setup is unclear, making it hard to know if '2' means every two weeks or twice a week.

2

Limited Device Compatibility

Some users are frustrated by the app's limited compatibility with certain devices, such as iPads and MacBooks, affecting around 10% of users who wish to use the app across multiple platforms.

I can't use the app on my iPad or MacBook, which limits its functionality for me.

3

Repetitive Location Entry

Users are annoyed by the need to repeatedly enter location information for recurring events, impacting about 7% of users who frequently schedule events with the same location.

It's frustrating to re-enter location info for recurring events instead of it being automatically copied.

4

Default Alert Limitations

The inability to customize default alerts for events is a pain point for some users, affecting approximately 3% who prefer different notification timings.

I wish I could change the default alert times for events instead of being stuck with the preset options.

Major Highlights of the Week

Ambiguous Recurrence
The phrasing for setting recurring events is unclear, leading to confusion about the frequency of events. Users are unsure if 'each 2 Wednesday' means every second Wednesday of the month or every other Wednesday.
The app displays 'each 2 Wednesday,' which is ambiguous and not intuitive.
iPad Orientation Issue
The app does not support landscape orientation on iPads, limiting usability for users who prefer or require this view. This restriction affects the user experience, especially for those accustomed to using their iPads in landscape mode.
I can't use it on my iPad or view it in landscape orientation.
Location Duplication
Users find it cumbersome to repeatedly enter location information for recurring events, as the app does not automatically copy this data. This inefficiency is particularly frustrating for users who frequently schedule similar events.
It's irritating to have to redo the location each time for repeated events.
Default Alert Settings
The inability to change default alert settings for events is a limitation, as users want more control over notification timings. This restriction requires manual adjustments for each event, which is inefficient.
We can’t change the default alerts for events in a calendar.
Mac Compatibility
The absence of a dedicated Mac app limits the app's utility for users who rely on MacBooks for scheduling. This gap in platform support is a significant drawback for users seeking seamless cross-device functionality.
The only downside is my wife and I can’t use it on our MacBooks.
Tinted Widget Issue
The widget's tinting feature on iOS makes it difficult to read event details, reducing its effectiveness. Users struggle with visibility, impacting the app's utility as a quick-reference tool.
The TimeTree widget is tinted, making it hard to see my events.

Quotes of the week

Hear from some of the most impactful users to drive changes

While setting up a recurring event, I noticed the weekly repeat option includes a field labeled '[number] Repeat each week.' This phrasing is confusing and not very user-friendly. Suggested improvements include changing the input label to 'Repeat every [number] week(s)' for clarity.

This is the best calendar app I’ve tried, and the only one that truly works for our family. I love the ability to toggle different calendars and add all relevant event details in one place. The only thing I would change is, I wish we could have slightly more users.
JEMetcalf
This app is absolutely perfect! The only problem I have is that we can’t change the default alerts for events in a calendar. I want to be able to change that somehow.
