I'm a traditionalist and still use a wall calendar and diary to mark in important dates and appointment reminders. However, I do mark them in my phone calendar aswell incase I'm out and have to check any dates. I would like to read your thoughts!
 
We only have one. It's a pokemon themed calendar.

I do, but mostly for my parents' sake. They don't have the best memory and we don't always remember to/aren't always able to tell each other personally when one of us has an appointment or plans, so I always mark down when I have an appointment or when something important's coming up on our shared calendar so my parents know/remember. It's particularly useful for when one of us is making an appointment/plans so that we don't accidentally overlap with someone else's, but it also helps me remember and keep track of my parents' and Bonk's stuff.

I've always been good at remembering my own appointments myself, so I usually never mark them down in my own calendar. I save my personal calendar for remembering birthdays and things I need/want to do at specific dates and times.
 
I don’t have one for personal use. However, my small team at work has an online one that we all update and refer to regularly. That one is fine for me, as I only have to look at it and update it when I’m actually at work. I’ve tried planners for my personal life but I just don’t enjoy it and they never stick. To me they feel like work—so a work one makes a lot more sense.
 
I picked both. I use a wall calendar and two planners (one for work and another for personal) to note down important dates/responsibilities and sort them out later. I use my cellphone's reminder feature for daily reminders like taking out the trash; or as a timer for when the important date has arrived.
 
When an appointment requires that someone drives me around I will write it on the family wall calendar, otherwise I keep all my appointments in my budget actually, as future transactions, with the date and hour.
