Hi guys,

I'm Dominik from PoweryBase, dev. team of NotifyMe. We've been trying hard to let people understand what's the difference between Calendar and NotifyMe. I couldn't describe it better myself, so here's a user's comment from NotifyMe review on AppVee.com. Hopefully it clears things up a little bit:

I wouldn't really compare NotifyMe to Calendar.app from Apple.

NotifyMe:

1. Start typing immediately on launch
2. Scroll the time
3. Tap "Save"

Apple Calendar:

1. On start, you have to tap "+"
2. The "title" (reminder name) brings you to the next screen
3. Type the reminder
4. Tap "Done"
5. Tap "Starts", you have to set the start date on the separate sceen
4. You have to tap "Ends"
5. Set the time AGAIN
6. Then you tap "Done"
7. Then you tap "Alert"
8. Then you have to SCROLL to the bottom
9. Tap "On date of event"
10. Then you have to tap "Done"

Oh my god! 10 steps for adding a simple reminder? Who would do that? And why would anyone want to do all of this and find himself bloating his Calendar with reminders like "Take out the trash"? Calendar si for important events, meetings, work, not for simple reminders.

We are also building a separate web interface, where users will be able to log in with their account, manage their reminders and also set a reminder for their husband/wife/kid/friend/whoever who permits that feature for the target user. More advanced features are in the works. We believe saving your reminders remotely and delivering them via Push has a lot of benefits and we are working to deliver them to our customers.
