New phones part two

I recently wrote about getting new phones and how the rep lost my calendar. He restored it, (with duplicate entries) but I thought new entries would get better.
Today I realized two doctors' appointments were missing. Thankfully I remembered them, but had to call to get the appointment times.
Then I saw that our daughter's birthday wasn't on there! I wouldn't have forgotten that, but still.
What else is missing?
I ordered a paper wall calendar from Amazon immediately. It should be here in two days.
I'm never trusting technology with important appointments and information again.

Glad you have the phones and are getting used to them, My calendar info and other info comes from all the journals I use to keep up with my online work,

I keep a journal, too, but not for appointments.

That sucks. I change my phone every year but all the information are transferred easily. Nothing missing at all.

@1creekgirl Yes, I make sure I don't. I only trust one brand for that.

@1creekgirl Me either. There always seems to be a certain amount of 'teething problems' with new phones.

Me either. I love my paper calendar. I don't know what I would do without it.

When I was going through treatments, I had huge calendars on my bedroom door. Some days had two and three appointments. I'd never remember all of them without reminders.

It seemed so good at first, but what a headache it's been.

Hmm. Technology has its limitations. That paper wall calendar should keep everything in order. 
After reading your initial post, I was thinking of using my phone to store appointments. After reading this one, I'll stick with pen and paper.
