Many appreciate the organizational capabilities, particularly the calendar and chore chart features, which help streamline family life. However, some customers express concerns about the subscription requirement and the relatively high price point. The lack of a battery is also cited as a drawback by a few users.

    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.

    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!

    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

    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!

    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.

    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!

    This has been on my wish list for a while now. I finally purchased it and it did not disappoint. After a few calendar mishaps I wanted a way to simplify managing the family schedule and to be able to display our google/outlook calendars for the whole family to see. This is the perfect solution. Now everyone can see what is happening for the week or month ahead. Setup and calendar syncing was quick and it is extremely easy to use. We love the chore and list features as well. Very happy with this purchase!

    Excellent Smart Calendar with Room for Improvement

    My family really relies on using our digital calendar to add all the things going on in our lives, events, and more. The Skylight Calendar brings a stylish yet minimalist way to bring that to the forefront of your home and it's been really great to use! PROS: - Unboxing showcased a nice tablet like device with a few mounting / stand options for where you want to locate it. The smart calendar is plug in operated so it has to be plugged in at all times so you know. - Setup is really easy but it is essential you have Skylight's companion app. That is how you will import your calendar and set everything up. But all in all a smooth easy setup process! - Once setup, the Skylight Calendar looks fantastic in our home. It's nice and bright (you can manually adjust or auto adjust) and the colors of different events or tasks pop on the screen. - On the calendar, I like the different views you can have (month, week, schedule, etc) so you can get the immediate next few days picture or the big monthly picture. - Something subtle but really nice to me, the Skylight calendar syncs colors from my Gmail calendar to the Skylight calendar. As in if I put all my "sports" things as yellow in Gmail, it will mark them yellow in the Skylight app. Something a lot of other third party calendar apps have issues with for some reason. - The Chore and task list is also a really nice feature that I think looks great and is easy to use! Of course you can update these lists on your phone or on the tablet directly. CONS: - I really think the Skylight is a nice device, but when it comes down to it, this is a $300 tablet that shows you your calendar, chores, and lists. Which I think is great, but I think it has room to do so much more than it currently can. At the time some of the things I think it is missing - being able to draw messages, syncing task list with your Apple / Google task list, dark mode, being able to stream TV/Movies/Music, building out the app so you can update the Skylight device settings from your phone, and more customization. - All of my "issues" though are simply things I think Skylight could do via app updates so that is a positive however! BOTTOM LINE: - The Skylight Calendar is a great way to visualize all the things my family is up and keeps us more organized while looking high quality doing so. I think their is room for improvements by adding more functionality to the device - but for now it still does exactly what I need it to do!

    Fabulous Idea and Execution

    I am in love with this Skylight Calendar 15" touchscreen smart calendar. This calendar can do so much more than just be an electronic calendar that syncs to your smartphone's calendar, other calendars, if you have the URL to direct it to, or if none of those apply you, can do direct entry into the Skylight calendar. My husband is a retired 71 year old that does not have a smartphone, but nevertheless has all sorts of appointments and he was always asking me to tell him what was scheduled for the day. Well, he can now see all of his schedule on this device since it is centrally located on my kitchen counter. By the way, you use different colored dots to categorize the appointments for the events and appointments within your household. Therefore, no matter how many individuals, pets, elderly parents, etc. you wish to track, this display has an easy method to chart and display all the events and appointments that are relevant to one's life. Where to begin. So, the product comes with a 15" screen, an electric power adapter that connects into your wall's socket, a quick-start guide, and 2 ways to display this device-either by an easel-like stand that attaches to the back of the unit or a plate with screws and anchors that can be mounted to the wall and thereby used to hang the frame. I opted to use the easel-like stand to make it portable The physical set up, as well as software, and connection to WIFI were seamless and easy. Most of these aforementioned items and processes are fairly intuitive. Beware that this is another app-guided product so if for some reason the owner does not have a smartphone or loses their phone, that might be a no go or a no use period until the phone is replaced. In fact, there is a barcode to scan to get the app on page 4 of the quick start guide and this works for all makes of phones. As you proceed through the account set up, you will need to use not only your own email for receipt of messages of set up, but also the receipt of an electronic version of the "User Manual" that is very detailed that I saved to my desktop computers at home and work for ease of access. You also need to create a user id that ends with @ our skylight.com. Almost as soon as you are progressing through the set up, the tutorial will ask you if you wish to purchase a photo plus plan, discounted for an annual payment vs. monthly payments, to make this not only a calendar, but also a digital frame that goes into a slideshow presentation when in screensaver mode. Pictures can be emailed to the Skylight calendar or uploaded through the mobile app, which is what I do. Oh, you can also add photo subtitles to make it fun and share the photos with friends and family by text, email, or even print. These photos can either come from the gallery or you can take a new photo right then. A simple tap on the screen takes it back from screensaver back to calendar. This subscription can be canceled at any time. A couple of quick impressions. On the back page of my Quick Start Up guide, there is an error in directions for Multiple Calendar Views that drove me buggy until I called the toll free 855 customer service number that I Googled for Skylight. You can adjust your calendar's display to either daily, weekly, or monthly . However, It says that in order to do so, the adjustment is in the top left corner. No, it is in the top right corner and with a simple tap or touch on the arrow facing down, it expands into daily, weekly, or monthly to which you pick which one that you prefer and then you touch calendar on the left side of the screen to lock in your choice. This calendar also can display and chart the progression of chores and whose responsibility they are, and the creation of customizable lists for groceries, to-do, etc. that is then synced to the Skylight phone app so those lists then become portable as you go about your day outside of the home or work, wherever you set up this device. The only somewhat negative I feel is that I believe that the $39.99 annual photo plan fee that I paid is high for a digital frame and after so many years it will cost quite a bit to make this device be multi-functional. There is a 2 year warranty and unlimited access to Skylight's toll free 855 number if you have tech issues or set up problems for no fee. That is a big plus for me, too.

    I must say I was super excited to see a digital calendar like skylight that can be placed anywhere in my home. I thought it was a wonderful concept! Throughout the years I have been normally accustomed to utilizing my mobile device's calendar to try to stay organized. I have even tried to have those wall decal calendars that can be placed wherever you want and then you can write with a dry erase marker what you have planned throughout the month. I barely used it, which was a waste! In a modern world where everything is much more digital who has the time to hand write all of the to-do list, chores and all of the important appointments, meetings and anything that's planned for the month/months ahead? Definitely not me! I have three kids and my day to day week to week schedule can be quite busy! The skylight calendar has become my personal assistant. I like that I was able to wall mount my skylight calendar and it's great that you can also have it as a desktop. Set up was super simple! I immediately downloaded the skylight app and was able to sync my gmail account to the calendar. I really like that with my gmail and the skylight being synced if I'm on the go anything I add to my phone's calendar; it is immediately on my skylight calendar. It's also great that the app allows you to add your to-do list and chores. The app is really helpful! My kids like seeing the calendar and learning about our upcoming plans, appointments. My five year old daughter is learning about the days of the week and the months as well as time. This calendar has been very helpful in many ways! The only con is that to have photos on the skylight calendar you have to pay for a subscription. Other than that the calendar by itself is well worth it! It is definitely keeping me much more organized and it's making the process of adding things to my calendar fun as well as the to-do lists and chores.

    The Skylight Calendar has made my life run so much smoother. Bouncing from work, school, kids, and drs appt can definitely get really hectic and stressful. Having The Skylight Calendar has really helped me stay focused and organized. Adding events, and chores was very simple. The Calendar is easy to use and displays everyone's schedule. You can color code so you know who is who. The app is also helpful because from there you can add events, delete, and edit without doing it from the calendar device itself. You can also get notifications if you want. The cool feature is that everyone can sync in and add events to the calendar. This is amazing since you don’t have to constantly ask, they can just add it. The Skylight calendar can be mounted on the wall or set it on the counter. I went ahead and set it up on the wall by my desk. There is a subscription you can get for $3.99(I purchased it just to try it) which allows you to send the pictures that you have on your phone or videos and they appear on the display of the calendar, for $3.99, it's a bit much and definitely not necessary. For the price point of this device that should’ve been already included. The display is nice and big enough, the touchscreen is precise. It also displays time and weather conditions. I recommend this product to anyone looking to stay on top of their busy life.

    As a newlywed, new small business owner, step-parent and dog parent, it can be a lot trying to navigate the demands of life. Being able to keep up with different schedules, appointments, and also grocery shopping and who’s turn it is to do a chore can seem nearly impossible some days. Enter the skylight camera. This nifty smart calendar has been a convenient lifesaver in my household, and receives daily use. Out of the box you will need a small screwdriver to be able to put the stand together to rest on a counter, or you can also mount it to any wall, but I chose the former. You have to download the app on your phone, begin the setup process which was fairly easy. I did have difficulty getting my iPhone calendar do synch with the device despite following the instructions step by step, and made my calendar public and emailed it to the email I setup my Skylight household with. You have multiple calendars to choose from like yahoo, and google, but icalendar was the only one I had an issue with so that was the reason for the loss of star. If you want to be able to use it as a digital picture holde of sorts you have to sign up for, and pay for a subscription which I chose not to do at this time. There is no free trial available. Overall being able to have everyone’s calendar, appointments, and shopping lists in one place with a sleek display has been great and I really appreciate having the skylight calendar.

    I absolutely love this for my family! It keeps them on track with their chores/To do's each day. Best part is my husband is getting things done instead of spending time on the internet! I can input dinner menus and sources on the basic plan. I'm still using the Cozi app in conjunction with the Skylight but Skylight is set to import that calendar.

    Super simple to set up and helps to keep our family and caregivers on the same page for who needs to be where and when. While I did not expect the chore chart to be a feature that we used, it has easily become one of the highlights with our daughters (5 and 10) very motivated by checking off their tasks. I am also a big fan of the fact that it has minimal use outside of the intended features so that it does not become a different streaming source for entertainment. I am sure that we could accomplish similar tasks with a flashier interface or something that could do more, but the simplicity is really the biggest draw for us.
