Let me say WOW! I was trying to find something to help organize a family of 5. I have been using the Skylight calendar for 7 months now, I like that there are new features added with an update (which they do periodically over wifi) allowing for more functionality. This is user friendly, kid friendly, highly adaptable, you have the ability to edit from the app on your phone, sync sports calendars, chore charts, lists, meal plans, and more! All while being easy to use compared to other more high tech “boards” that are overly complicated to use. It took me an afternoon to mount on the wall, create our family profiles, and just start adding all the chores and calendars almost immediately. The (older) kids and husband can download the app and have access to the calendar from their phones also. It has allowed me to free up mental space and clutter with chore charts, meal plan boards, etc. If you are debating, I highly recommend this product.

Purchased this for my wife for Christmas. She's an analyst for the DoD and is very organized. Show absolutely loves it. Even said that I "won" Christmas this year (she usually beats me in that competition every year). She was even able to integrate some calendar app that she uses... Not one of the "usual" ones
.. can't think of the name at the moment.
She also likes the chore chart for the kids.
App works very well. Set up wasn't the greatest, but not hard.
She also paid the subscription to have her photos show up on the calendar. It's actually been a really nice addition to our kitchen. It's a photo display most of the time, but a very well done productivity tool the rest of the time.
The other bonus was that it came with a stand and a wall mount. Really appreciated not having to buy an accessory to hang out on the wall or stand it on the counter.
I would definitely recommend this product.

This smart device has made my household run so much smoother. It helps my family stay on top of chores, meals for the week, and even grocery shopping. With the $50/year subscription, we can email important dates directly to the Skylight email, and they automatically upload to the calendar—super convenient!
One of my favorite features is that we can also upload pictures, turning it into a beautiful digital photo album for my family. It’s such a thoughtful touch that brings us joy every day.
I honestly wish I had purchased this sooner. It has been a tremendous help in organizing our busy lives while keeping our memories alive. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to simplify and enrich their home routine!

My mother in law got this for me for Christmas and I love it! The calendar helps keeps us all on track. The chore chart actually gets the kids to do their chores, its nice they can check each one off as they do it and it gives them a burst of fun when they complete all their chores for the day. The lists help me stay organized and its great that they are in the app as well as on the screen. We havent used the meal planner much yet but its gonna be wonderful when we do. Def a huge help for a family with busy schedules.

Amazing organizer and calendar, it lets you add multiple calendars so you can sync everything together. I put it right near my front door so leaving I can check my day, you can add meals per day, chores, and a to do list as well. This has completely changed how I plan out my time

I had grown tired of managing multiple calendars - multiple work and family calendars, plus family activities. Updates would never make it to the right calendars, and we ended up as disorganized as I started.
The Skylight device was perfect for merging all of the calendars. The sync feature makes this very easy. It is also easy to view tasks and chores, no more "to do" list floating around on a post it note. The calendar is out in the open and makes it easy to check schedules.
All in all a great solution to stay organized at home.

With as busy as life gets nowadays, it’s always nice to have a center for all of your plans. We are a family of four in between soccer practice, dance and other events. This thing has helped keep us all on track. My wife and I especially enjoy the fact that this has a chore tracker and our kids have been on top of their chores since we installed this thing a number of months ago. Yes you do have to pay for some of the advanced features but it’s only $40 a year and the peace of mind of knowing what’s coming for dinner and just having a really nice digital picture frame on the wall helps as well.
The installation was extreme Easy and took no time at all. I already had a hole in the wall from a previous security system that we are no longer using, and this fit perfectly over it and was able to hide the cords in the wall as well.
Simply put if you’re on the fence just do it. It’s a great piece of mind for your family to be aligned on all the things coming down the pipeline!

The Skylight 15” Digital Calendar is a game changer and is one of the best investments we made in years. Innovative and multifunctional I can now see all of mine, my husband’s, and our pet’s appointments, flea and tick treatments, and other appointments and events when we walk past the Skylight many times a day. I also have alerts set to remind me when it’s time to take my bi-monthly injections. I’ve recently been diagnosed with diabetes so I’m new to finger-sticks and the skylight calendar is a great way to help keep me in check until it becomes a habit. We purchased the annual Skylight Plus subscription so my husband can now have Skylight to convert emails with meetings scheduled to events and the ability to upload photos is a win win! I recommend to anyone with a busy lifestyle and even older folks like us because let’s face things begin to go when you reach a certain age or have health issues that affect your memory and for me it’s a double whammy! lol

Great family tool, keeps schedule at a glance and the chore cart my kids love being able to see what needs completed and then hitting the check makes them smile. Would recommend if you have a busy life with kids.

My husband suggested this and i absolutely love it! It is so easy to use. To specify i habe not tried to sync 3rd party calendars. U have to much junk and dont need to world to see me track my spending lol.
I can color code easily and invite family members to add what they feel i need to know like unexpected changes to work schedules or vacations. I highly recommend.
The 15" is a perfect size. It may he to heavy to mount on the wall so it is simply on our counter which works well. We live in an apartment so drilling holes is a big no. Anyone wanting to mount just make sure you use a studded spot as i am not sure dry wall will be sturdy enough. The cord is a good length.

Fantastic digital calendar. Love the features it boasts. Wish there wasnt a monthly subscription on top of the high price, but that's the world we live in today. Happy with this product. Though I wouldnt say theres a WHOLE LOT you can do on the Skylight that you cant do in, say, your phone's calendar app.

This is a great product that my girlfriend and I have used for several months now and we love it. Unfortunately, if you want to display photos on the SkyLight it’ll cost you $4/mo or $40/year at the time of writing this. It really pains me to see this feature locked behind a paywall - and not even one you can buy permanently as there is no “lifetime” option. I would *consider* paying for that as a permanent upgrade, but to only have it available as a subscription can only be seen for what it is - a cash grab. Until they make a change to this business model, this product does not deserve five stars.
Thank you for your thoughtful feedback regarding your experience with our Skylight Calendar. We're thrilled to hear that you and your girlfriend have been enjoying the Skylight Calendar for several months now.
We understand your concern regarding the subscription model for displaying photos on the Skylight. Your perspective is genuinely appreciated as it helps us enhance our offerings to better meet the needs and preferences of our customers.
While we currently offer a subscription-based service for photo display, we continuously evaluate our business model to ensure it aligns with the value and satisfaction of our users.
If you have any further questions or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to us directly at [email protected].
Thank you again for choosing Skylight Calendar, and we hope to continue exceeding your expectations in the future.

I love this, it’s so convenient that I can link it to my phone calendar so everything automatically uploads and when it’s not in use, it just cycles through photos i’ve chosen.

I love this calendar, keeps all the calendars in the family in sync and easier go see what everyone has going on whether its dance classes, recitals, competitions, pool tournaments holidays gathering its all on the calendar and alerts through the apps.
I love the feature for emailing appts. I literally sent the whole achool academic calendar and it put in every single date event, same with dance schedule for classes and studio closed dates.
One con is the seems super outrageous, so fingers crossed the skylight will not have to replaced quickly. If I get 4 years from it before needing to replace it, then I wouldnt consider the cost a con of the product. Picture is of the app on my phone showing month of December.

This is a great product for family organization! Every person gets their own tabs, there's to-do lists, chore charts, a synced calendar, and meal planning features. On top of that, it works as a digital photo frame when in "sleep mode".

Excellent resource to stay organized with work and family. My kids love it and we all enjoy the slide show feature. Unfortunately the one I ordered online did not get delivered to my house and I had to go and purchase it at the store but that was not Beat
Buys fault.

This calendar is fantastic! I do love everything about this device! I do wish it had the option to add a meal plan for breakfast and lunch as well as dinner. If I could scroll up and down into the next week or month instead of pressing the aarows right or left will take somegetting used to. 10/10 a must have!

Best family planning tool on the market. The app made it super easy to use, install, and share data. It’s so hard to keep track of our family’s busy schedules so this will be a life saver! I’m also very excited for the meal planning tool so we can easily plan our family dinners.
In addition to the calendar, it is so fun to add pictures and use it as a rotating picture frame! Such a fun conversation piece.
Lastly, we are excited to utilize the chores feature to track who is in charge of what for the week!
