Customer Ratings & Reviews

Love this calendar and the fact that it plays pictures when calendar is not in display

This thing got the name Chaos Calendar. We have 5 kids, travel, sports and so much more- this thing makes life so much easier!!!

Works perfectly. The price fits just right for the amount of things it can do.

Family loves it. Send reminders straight to your email.

Little bit of a learning curve very user-friendly.

Our family loves it! We don’t have any issues with it.

It great everything in one place family love it get one didn't hang it yet have it on the shelf

Does everything we need it to do. Display is clear, runs seamlessly. Really enjoy the screen saver set to a slideshow of our pictures.

It was installed last night. As an early birthday present for myself, being the owner of two business businesses and working a full-time job this will come in handy.

I absolutely love my 27” Skylight calendar purchase. I was ecstatic that I was able to purchase the one I wanted through Best Buy. I made the order online and picked it up in the store.

Love this calendar!! It has helped my family stay organized and especially love the slide show of photos.

Purchased Dec 9, 2025 as a Christmas present for my wife. Calendar worked great. Tasks, not so much. Tasks randomly would not input directly through the device. Completed tasks would not delete. Soft reset of the device typically fixed the issue. After abouth the tenth time doing this over the next 3 days, I contacted tech support. Step 1, soft reset..duh! Step 2, hard reset. That fixed it! For about an hour. Called tech support back, and they said it must be my wifi connection. Less than 20 devices in my home, on 1G Fiber. Everything else is working, but ok. Performed wifi test. Signal is fast and strong. Not wifi. Checked Facebook and Reddit. Whattaya know! This is a known issue! Returned the device to Best Buy because Skylight tech support misled me into thinking it was my problem and not their software after resetting didn't fix the issue. Save your $650 dollars. Buy a tablet, download Google Calendar, and hang it on the wall. There! I just saved you $400 bucks and a $100 subscription fee. Oh! When your subscription is refunded, it's pro-rated by the full month. You're welcome!

Would give 5 stars if it wasnt for the limitations you have without paying a membership

Unfortunately they need MUCH more work on the actual interface before I can call this a useful product. It's truly been it's best for my family as a photo frame. The app can only do so much. Chores are listed only in alphabetical order. You are forced to add a number or something in front of it to list in the order you need it to be in. You're unable to add chores or do much of anything on the desktop version. It just wasn't a great fit for us and after nearly 60 days, we've made the decision to return. It's got AMAZING potential... but it just missed the mark for what my family was looking for.

I am in love with my new Skylight calendar! I actually upgraded from my smaller 15" that I've had for over a year. A few things I love about my Skylight in general: 1. My kids have stopped asking me what they have going on tonight! All after school activities are loaded so the entire family is on the same page. 2. It is easy to sync and entire calendar, or just events from my work calendar. I connected my entire Gmail calendar to the calendar, but for my work calendar, if there is something I want to share, I just add an "attendee" which is the email address for the calendar. It's great!! 3. MAGIC IMPORT. I was nervous to try this, but wow does it work great. I snapped a photo of the monthly lunch menu from our school, sent the photo to the calendar email, and it seemlessly added every days lunch to the menu. Again, this way my kids have a one stop shop for lunch at school, what's going on over the weekend or that day. 4. Chore Chart! I'm reprogramed some fun new chores for the school year, and my kids seem to enjoy checking off their "to-do's." I like the new feature that also shows expired chores that haven't been checked off. 5. The SIZE!! Wow the CalMax is gorgeous and something all my friends ask about when they come over. I even upgraded to the membership, and I can turn it into a photo frame of my family (rotating or static) when it's in sleep mode. It's so fun and easy to add images, my kids love seeing it! One thing I am going to do is hire an electrician or hire BBY Geek Squad to move my outlet behind the device! In looking closely at the power, it does need to be recessed to fit it. For now I will purchase a cable concealer online to make it look a little more clean! I also chose to orient mine horiztonal, which i'm loving, but vertical is an option as well. You can see the full week in view this way really nicely. Overall, this device is a game changer, and I'm SO grateful for the ease it's brought to my families life!!

I recently purchased the Skylight Max 27″ Touchscreen Smart Calendar, and I couldn’t be more impressed. This device has truly become the central hub of our home — bringing organization, clarity, and visual enjoyment into our everyday routine. Right out of the box, the Skylight Max’s large 27-inch HD touchscreen makes an immediate impact. The display is vibrant, easy to read from across the room, and feels like a premium centerpiece on our wall. Whether mounted in portrait or landscape orientation, it integrates seamlessly into our living space without feeling bulky or intrusive. Setup was straightforward and user-friendly, and connecting our digital calendars (Google, Outlook, and others) took only a few minutes. Once synced, the calendar instantly became the place we all check first thing in the morning — no more searching multiple apps on phones or scribbling reminders on sticky notes. What sets this device apart is its all-in-one functionality. It doesn’t just show dates — it manages: • Shared family schedules so everyone stays on the same page. • Chore lists and to-dos, which are simple to assign and track. • Meal planning tools that streamline weekly dinner prep planning and grocery lists. I especially enjoy how photos can be displayed when the calendar isn’t actively in use. It adds a personal, heartwarming touch that turns a utilitarian device into something cozy and meaningful for the whole family. The intuitive touchscreen interface makes interacting with the calendar a pleasure rather than a chore. My children even enjoy checking off tasks and seeing their schedules color-coded — which keeps them more engaged and responsible for their own commitments. In terms of organization, this product delivers. Our family’s routines feel clearer, coordinated, and more efficient, and I find myself using the Skylight Max daily — something I didn’t expect from a calendar device! Overall, the Skylight Max is a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to level up family organization with style, simplicity, and smart features. It’s more than just a calendar — it’s the heart of our home’s day-to-day rhythm.

I have 4 kids and work full time. My schedule is always busy and everyone has their own thing going on (sports, school activities, playdates, etc.) it helps when u have too much things to remember, its like a weight is lifted off ur shoulders… i can set up chores for my kids to do while im at work and when they get home they can do it, i can monitor everything from my phone and everything is just simplified… lt makes my kids more productive and i dnt always have to tell them to do things because they see it on their chore list… they can also redeem stars for rewards, and meal planning is also easier since it gives me a list i can choose from since i dont always know what to make for meals. I also love the photo screensaver and i love that everyone can have their own profile

I purchased the Skylight Calendar for my daughter who has 3 young teen boys who play sports year round. They're all on different travel teams. All take private lessons for different skills. She & her husband are going non-stop with their sons' schedules. Also her husband is an "excel spreadsheet" man & keeps lists of chores, grocery lists, etc. on the refrigerator. When they got the Skylight Calendar they were able to compile EVERYTHING they have to do on a daily basis on the calendar. My daughter this has been a gamechanger in their everyday life. It's been absolutely amazing!

Setting up the review - my wife and I have a 7 year old and a 9 year old. My son is in competitive swimming, practicing 4 days a week with meets, and soccer, practicing 2-3 days a week with games on weekends. My daughter is on 2 lacrosse teams and 2 soccer teams, virtually on the go every day. Between all the practices, school events, and my wife and my own events, calendar management - even with synced and iCals were getting crazy. We were checking our phones every second to make sure we had stuff right. We tried to have a dry-erase calendar as a central location in the kitchen, but that got really annoying to write all these things down - especially if they changed. When we saw advertisements for this product, the idea completely got my interest. I heard from a couple of friends it was a good product, and decided to go for the larger screen due to our desire to mount it on the wall and have an easy to see location each morning of what the day looks like. Setup - hardware: I was very intrigued to see that the installation parts included the right drill bit size to drill holes for mounting. On top of that, it came with a sheet that proved incredibly useful as it had the outlines of the display itself, and it had a trace to understand where the holes go for the mount. I am not a handyman, so having these things helped me gain confidence to drill into the wall After the mount was up, it's a bit higher on the wall and getting the device onto the mount was a bit of a challenge as I was doing it myself. I'm sure with 2 people it would be super easy. To cap off the device, the frame is magnetic, looks polished, and was as simple as placing the frame around the edge of the display. Software Setup: This was probably the only reason I put a 4 instead of a 5. I'm well versed in tech and some of the expectations or settings were a tad confusing at first. I think my biggest unexpected behavior was when I was looking to sync my iCloud family calendars. Although the documentation did help me, and once you do it for 1 calendar it's simple to do it again, initial setup with iCloud took a bit of time. After the initial setup, the other unintended behavior, which may not be Skylight's issue, was the time it took for calendars to sync events, After the initial success, it still took how many minutes before the events showed up on screen itself, so just understand that could be the case. This goes for changes/updates going forward as well. Interestingly enough, if you update the calendar through Skylight, the updates are pretty quick the other direction and show up right away on the calendar. Aside from that quirk, I had one issue come up with changing events from one iCloud calendar to another and not being able to remove the event. Not a big deal as this was only one event. Overall though, it's amazing now having iCal subscriptions from school calendars and iCloud calendars in a large, responsive, good looking screen in the kitchen. We put photos of the kids as a screensaver, and even set a "sleep" schedule overnight when everyone is sleeping. There are also different lists you can maintain, like grocery lists or any other lists you want to make, and we started trying out the chores section - where you an assign routine or tasks for the kids and assign stars that if they complete they will get those stars. It's still early but I'm incredibly happy with the purchase and can't wait to keep learning how it can help manage everyone's crazy schedules!

Amazing product! I’ve been thinking about how to make a product like this for years. Now I don’t have to. Yes, it is a little pricey, but it is worth every penny. I had to add a license to our shared calendar to add it, but it works so well.
