Is there any way to return to the calendar format prior to the latest update?

I have written on their suggestions page to at least give us the option to revert.

Why give us the ‘excellent’ scroll idea 10yrs ago... A real first, and now make it fiddly to use, that’s bad design and bad ‘management direction’.

I thought Apple was about function and form, simple intuitive software that doesn’t need a manual...?

Oh how that has changed, dongles on MacBooks... just to keep aesthetics looking pretty, silly lightening ports that fill with fluff, just to ‘not’ use usb and now usb ‘c’. And now wireless only headphones/charging... just to look ‘Uber’. And don’t even mention trying to move media from an iPhone to a PC...!

it’s about time Apple put customers first and realised that these points I just mentioned make life difficult for users, it’s damaging to brand Apple.

Who wants to be the richest in the world if your product isn’t as good as it was 10yrs ago...?

Its time they listened to their customers, gave them some kudos and dropped the ego thing.

Agree. It was easy and great how you changed the time before.

who approved this horrible UI

. Fix it now.

overall Apple products going downhill. The quality is a joke nowadays and I have used Apple products since the early 90s

I agree. Unfortunately it is the way of such bulletin boards and other Internet interactions. Probably the best we can do is model decent behaviors and hope that some will catch on. I just hope that none of those sharp-fingered responders are teachers who behave like that toward students.

Saying snarky things about people is hardly what I would call modeling "decent behavior".

I find some of the responses on this discussion to be rather abrupt and rude. Not everyone is a tech expert and people simply want some advice.

What’s rude is joining an ongoing discussion without reading its history first so you don’t ask what has already been answered, or repeat answers that have already been posted.

I remember a few Usenet forums and BBSs where there were very stern warnings against doing that.

I agree this calendar app update is terrible. I never take the time to review an app but I’m making an exception. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve entered an appointment wrong since the update. I’ve relied on the calendar app for so long but now I have to write my appointments down with a pen and paper...what is this?! 1995? It’s impossible to pull up one day at a time, to see only appointments for that day. It’s not intuitive when making several appointments at once. Ugh so annoying.

It’s terrible.

Ugly, stupid and less intuitive. I’ll never get used to this new schedule. But this is classic Apple. You adapt to Apple. Apple never adapts to you. It’s always a love hate relationship with Apple. I’m looking at options for my next laptop and phone to be a PC, android, and google calendar.

I agree with the others who are frustrated with the 14.2 calendar updates. I would like to know how to go back to the earlier version. It was much more intuitive and quicker to see my calendar at a glance. I now have to scroll to see my day at a glance. When scheduling someone that is too time consuming. Please update this so we have option to go back to earlier version.

Thank you

Whoever thought the calendar update was a good idea should be fired... Its horrible please go back! Also when I copy and paste something into an email I dont need something popping up top telling me I did.

I agree. It’s the awkwardness of all the movement around the screen:

I add an appointment

Tap on the date

The first thing below my thumb is the time

I move BELOW that to select the date

I move back UP to select the time

This opens the keyboard which is down BELOW the date

Type in the time on the keyboard

Go back UP above the dates to select AM or PM

Carefully use my thumb to scroll the calendar up (without selecting another date by accident)

Tap in the end time BELOW the calendar

Tap in the time field which is now UP above the dates

Tap back DOWN in the keyboard to enter the time

Tap UP in the date field to select AM or PM.

This is crazy.

I agree... my calendar is never right. The change is awful!!! Change back to the way we used to set dates and times! Please revert! It looks like there are several hundreds of people who feel this way!

Did you submit feedback to Apple?

Agree completely. Worst update of a program in a long time. Also, when I open the app on my iPhone, I often get a blank screen telling me "No invitations" instead of the interface to set up an appointment.
