This is the one seen advertised. Super cool and helpful. It synch’s to your phone via the app. So, anytime you think of something you can add it. When you are in the grocery store, just look at the list on your phone. Has different profiles so you can see who’s got what going on when. Make sure you mount it close to an outlet, because it has be plugged in. You’ll want a cord protector thing so you can cover the cord so it’s not just hanging there. We got the smaller one (15 inch) which is perfect I think. Like an iPad mounted to the wall in the kitchen. Instead of keeping notes on the fridge, just type it on the screen - it’s a touch screen. Neat product, super easy, that we use everyday. Unexpected benefit: Can’t remember the last time you did xxx or when you went to xxx? Just scroll backwards and viola! Doubles as a historical record.

I absolutely love this! It has helped me stay organized and now my husband knows exactly what is what. The recipes are simple and help for a quick meal during the week and I love the new feature if taking pictures of my pantry and refrig and it gives me ideas to make from what I have in stock!

Terrific product that works great, is easy to use and really helps a family stay organized. Stops the "Why didn't you remind me" complaints. My daughter got one first and that is how I learned about it. Easy to use also. Read more
Love my Skylight calendar! It’s user friendly can be managed on my phone or on my skylight calendar. Makes my life so much easier. I love that I can set up chore charts for my family so they don’t need to ask me what needs to be done 🙂 Read more
My wife pushed me to purchase this Skylight Calendar as we head into the new school year. Our kids are finally at an age that they want to know all the things. What do we have going on during the day, what are we eating, and what chores should they be doing. Well a few weeks in, I can say this is a game changer with a few caveats. Integrating calendars could not be easier. We are an Apple household and it was very easy to make our calendars public to get a shareable link and add those into the Skylight companion app. Within minutes we had the calendar reflecting all our shared, personal, and sports calendars. I think we may have 5 - 6 syncing without issue. Skylight also offers a holiday calendar that we enabled. Profiles allow you to easily create task lists for your kids. Both of our kids have repeating daily tasks, think empty the dishwasher or shower, that were easy to create. They also have weekly chores, like pulling weeds, that we setup. While viewing the calendar, you can enable a view to show how many tasks they have for the day and how many they have completed. As they complete these, they can easily mark them off. As they complete tasks, if you pay for the subscription, you can assign star values so they can claim rewards. We have setup a few rewards for them, but still playing with the value of rewards to number of tasks they are doing. We are also using this as a digital picture frame, which you must also pay for through the subscription. They say the photo storage is unlimited. I think your cloud storage is unlimited, but the device has to have a cap. Currently have maybe 300 photos synced to. After 5 minutes of no one using it, it begins to go through them. One complaint I have, is even though I’ve synced 300 photos, I tend to see the same ones a lot. I don’t have any proof, but think the device may refresh the photos it has in its storage, but not hold them all which is why. From a form factor standpoint, this is a well built device. It feels very solid and has a pretty crisp screen. It includes a stand or wall mounting parts. I have no fear of my kids damaging this device, hopefully. Overall I think this is a great device for keeping a family who has kids without their own phones/devices on track with what’s going on, on task with chores, and display family photos. However, a few complaints: 1. A subscription to unlock rewards, meal planning, using it as a digital picture frame is kinda crazy for the cost of the device. 2. While there is a sleep mode to turn the display off at night. It’s on all the time. Feel like they should have included a sensor to detect motion to save energy. 3. While ours has been on and connected for a few weeks, I know there is an update out there that includes weather that we have not gotten yet and there is no way to force a software update. So kind of at the mercy of when updates come out. Overall a great little device, with some quirks. Read more
Very easy to configure and set up. The interface is user friendly and you can add multiple profiles to help keep up with everyone’s busy schedules. The plus option is only $7/month and it allows for meal planning, recipes, and photos to truly customize your experience. You can filter your view based on the day, week, or month. Great purchase and highly recommend for anyone looking to get more organized. Read more
This Calendar is one of my favorite ways to keep organized. They have great support and are willing to help you if you run into issues. The quality is really good and design is very user friendly. You can track tasks, events, and even create multiple schedules in different colors for family members. Can also create incentives for kids to complete chores. It is so good I have two of them. One at work and one at home. They even sync with other calendars (ex. Google calendar) Read more
I was pretty apprehensive about this product since our paper calendar seemed to be working fine but wife had it pretty high on her wish list. Functionally it seems to have a simple, easy to use interface. I haven’t tried connecting to it remotely so I can’t speak to that. I’m guessing (hoping) that it has some interoperability with existing calendars (Google, Apple) but haven’t tested it. It’s a solidly built unit with a couple of mounting/display options. Clean design that doesn’t clash with surroundings, even my kid can figure out how to check off tasks and chores. I don’t like that it doesn’t have a sleep or dark mode. My wife puts it to sleep at a certain time of day but I’d rather it dim after a period of time when not being used. Perhaps that’s an option. Read more
