Ratings and reviews

Works principally fine but if I disable syncing of contact accounts it just reactivates syncing once I leave the app. But I want to have all contacts in one account and don't accidentally save them in one of the others, so I want to disable the synchronization of the other ones because my mail provider doesn't allow me to delete the other contact accounts unfortunately.

Almost good. Calendar sync works well, however, recurring tasks in the tasks app are lacking options. In the web interface I can select every 3 days, for example, but those tasks do not sync and the tasks app doesn't have same options. A bit disappointing.

The app was useful for syncing my calendars until it suddenly stopped syncing two weeks ago, with the error android.os.RemoteException: Unable to retrieve provider data for account
