Close to Great – iStudiez Pro Legendary Planner Review

I just started my second round of grad school and am attempting to go paperless. Looking at the description and reviews I hoped this was the app that would help coordinate my crazy schedule and allow me to organize classes, assignments, and exams accordingly. It’s SO close to great, but not quite there. Pros: Allows to build color coded courses with classes, assignments and exams inside. Lists assignments in order by date for multiple classes. Syncs with my other calendars so I can see all events at one time from the overview screen. I wish it could... Show EVERYTHING on one screen. Currently you have to click to the “assignments” / “classes” tabs to see the event listed. There’s not a way to see everything all together on the given day which is frustrating. I’m better off using a regular old calendar app with color coded tags to signify the class. Add additional notes to everything I input. For example when I add a “class” I can’t add any additional information. It just says “Class” with the date and time. I’d like to be able to enter the title of the class AND the agenda for that class. Possibly even be able to add a link to where my notes are resources needed for that class. (Seems like a really simple additional ‘notes’ field - however it’s not there) Sync / Sharing ability with other apps especially for notes - such as Evernote, OneNote, Google etc. My opinion, not worth the $2.99. Save your money and use tags in a traditional calendar app. If you’re looking for apps that also have “ToDo” right in the calendar, I recommend Fantastical or Pocket Informant.
