I use the calendar app that is installed on every iphone from the start. But I am open to suggestions.
Google Calendar I have tried too. It has the disadvantage that it only can be opened while having internet access which I don't have 24 hours a day.
Unfortunately I have been glad too early. The solution of the second problem brought the first problem back. :concern:
In the settings I have chosen that I am reminded when the appointment arrives. Now the built-in calendar app only beeps once at that time which I can miss easily. In the sound...

Where in the built-in calendar or reminder app can I change the sound to a...
I can't find a free app that reminds me reliably of important appointments.
The built-in calendar and reminder app beep only once which I can easily miss. The built-in alarm clock app beeps long enough but it can only beep on a certain day of the week and not on a certain date next month. The...
