I gave up using the calendar feature, now Weekplan is only a tasklist fo me.

- Google sync doesn't refresh. Contacting support didn't help me.

- Google sync misses random items. Contacting support didn't help me.

- 2 calendars can't be synced 2 ways. Contacting support didn't help me.

- calendar UI is very inconvinient and confusing

I love the idea but sorry, it's more like a beta  version at the moment and you shouldn't ask money for it.

Will try using tasklist only form now. There many issues with tasks features also but no blockers so far.

Hi Peter and Anna, 


I am a potential week plan customer but so far threads like these have put a seriously bad taste in my mouth.  Could either (or preferably both) of you confirm that this issue has been resolved?  I cannot try week plan before purchasing because I wasted my free trial using the (at least as of a few months ago) worthless android mobile app. I am wondering if both the mobile app and the email issues have been taken care of since it seems there have been some updates.  Week plan looks perfect conceptually but from my mobile experience and others comments I would be paying a large sum for a lot of buggy features that may or may not work and worthless mobile apps.  Since I have a Mac this would mean something like $40 for a year of using a buggy web app.  I don't have that kind of money for a service I can see right here, doesn't have the customer service capable of actually resolving a major issue.  

Hi, Zach!


We are sorry to hear about this.


Our dev team has released a couple of updates these past few months. 


We are more than happy to give you another free trial as an exemption. May we have the email address associated to your Weekplan account?

One more issue I already reported you some time ago and now I discovered that it's still not fixed.


Google sync takes my tasks from Weekplan and copies to Google Calendar as all day events with reminder.

I have notifications disabled for all day events in my Google Calendar and time is not defined in Weekplan item but it still sets it in Google Calendar.


Peter

Hi,


And another issue I discovered.

Weekplan Google Calendar sync creates new all day items in Google, from Tasks in Weekplan and sets their status to "busy" in Google. The result is that my all days are "busy" if there is at least one task at this day.

Nobody can send me meeting requests now because all my days are busy.

Disconnecting again my calendars, not usable.


PS. I am pretty sure I reported the same issue several month's ago.

Hi, Peter!


Our apologies if you are still experiencing this on your end.


The fix for the Gcal issues have been released recently and this should have addressed all the reports we received.


I will reach out to our dev team again to check on this.

Yes i can see that I can't sync 2 calendars 2 ways and is is a big problem.

You could make it works this way. 

- One of Google calendars is a "default calendar"

- all items created in Weekplan will be added to and amodified in "default calendar"

- if we change an item in Weekplan witch is created in Google calendar, it would sync back to the same Google calendar


Sync testing.

Still is not working. I deleted item Foo1 in my Google Clendar and it's still sitting in my Weekplan calendar. http://prntscr.com/j15044

Hi, Peter!


Thank you for the response.


I will relay this to over to our dev team. We will respond to you once we have a feedback.


Hi, Peter!


Thank you for patiently waiting.


Please be reminded that you cannot push events to 2 calendars at the same time but you can pull from multiple calendars.


May we ask if you are still having issue with the sync function? After setting up the pull and push kindly click save.


If you are still having issues with the sync function, kindly send us a screenshot of the Gcal settings of your workspace and we'll have this checked bu our dev team urgently.


We will wait for your feedback.
