You haven’t updated this app in three months so is it safe to use or should I delete it?

What is going on with goals!!! I have goals I’ve used for over a year just disappear. And then if I try to create a new goal it doesn’t populate correctly. For example daily goals will only pop once or twice a week and not start for five days.

I find it redundant to have to click on the app just to check out what today’s date is...

Absolutely love this app! I do with there were some features added to the app that are available on the desktop, such as colors mimicking desktop web version more precisely (on desktop I have a calendar colored white with black text but it shows up gray on the app and I'm not a fan of that). Also I would love to be able to choose custom colors on the app, and not always have to dig out my computer if I'm setting up a new calendar or changing colors around. Diming past events like desktop would be nice as well Some other features that would be nice is Setting default calendar to add events to and Lastly, I would love to be able to set default views. I'm not a fan of the schedule view. I would prefer to use month and it go to the day view when I click on the day.

I love the google calendar app. However, the previous updates all had the widget that would fit in multiple days tasks into one widget window. The new update only shows the tasks for the day. So you're not able to quickly check tomorrows tasks fast enough without clicking the app, which I think defeats the widgets purpose and limits it greatly. I wish the old widget remained.

The app puts my events in different times zones so they are always off by an hour. And when I try and change it to the correct hour it makes it wrong on my computer. Seems like a bad design choice

I honestly love this app. I wish they would make it for everyone to be able to use regardless of who provided their mail account.

Needs apple watch integration

Beautiful interface, high functioning app. But one little thing bothers me because it’s such a simple little detail. Seems like an easy thing to do, apple calendar does this. Why not have the screen icon reflect the current date instead of a perpetual "31"???

The iPhone Google calendar app is always slow and delayed when trying to update or edit events. Sometimes after I edit an event and click save— it doesn’t save and I have start over. I have no issues with any other iPhone Google apps, just the calendar.

The app is worth five stars. I only wish the app icon on the Home Screen showed the actual date which is the sole reason for 4 stars. Otherwise excellent.

I would like to have the option to change the time of all the session for a goal at once, because it picks the time for all the session I waste of time changing them one by one. I that could be fixed it would be awesome!

The calendar events created/updated simply “appear” to have been created half the time. When I close the app and open it again, or open on a different device - it’s not there anymore. This usually happens when I’m moving an event from one time slot to another. This is extremely annoying and might even lead to missed appointments and such.

With this app I can stay on top of my assignments and it really benefits my grades! It is ameasy to use and of all the google apps this one is my favorite. Great app!

Helps me remember things. Alarms. Easy to set up events so they repeat at whatever frequency I need. Super user friendly. Totally recommend for anyone w ADHD! Better than a planner, in my opinion

Reliability has fallen off significantly. Edit a calendar entry and you edit another without closing & reopening app. Perhaps Google has abandoned it :-(

I very much enjoy this app. I use it to control all of my appointments for my massage business. It’s very convenient because I travel and factoring travel time is a big deal for me.I love the fact that you can set up reoccurring appointments everything about this app is brilliant except one thing. Why can you not set a reminder for different quantities of time that aren’t full half hours? I mean an 1.25, 2.5, 1.75 reminder PLEASE!!!!!???

You’d think Google would intuitively have their calendar app open an event’s meeting link in their own Google Meet app. Instead it opens in the Gmail app. Not only does this make no sense, but it makes it very difficult to multitask with emails during the meeting. This creates difficulties when needing to refer to an email thread relevant to the meeting’s topic. I’m forced to use 2 devices.

Only a few suggestions for a future update: 1. Have the screen icon reflect the actual date. I’m tired of seeing “31”. 2. Instead of scrolling “horizontally” to see future or previous months. Scrolling vertically is more seamless. Also add a “go to (date)” feature. 3. Color options for Appts need to be more vibrant and varied.

After the last update, my settings are screwed up....again!! Why oh why after an update I cannot select a color heading for my events?! Please fix this! It’s soooo frustrating! I like the ability to colorize my events. Ughhhhh!

Make the cover of the app the date please

I am a hairstylist and use this calendar app to book appointments. Never had an issue until the last few months. It deleted a bunch of appointments which caused me to double book and have no idea. I have lots of angry clients now thanks to this app

Way too many messages trying to get me to install all kinds of crap

Colorful

As an independent business owner this app truly let me down. I’m am deeply disappointed.

This app is unusable as I can’t see any of my recurring appointments! I switched back to Apple’s default Calendar app, and lo and behold, I can see everything. Fix this flaw pronto, Google.

Everything about the app is great, layout features, etc. But two things that make this a 3 star app. One which I agree with others is that the monthly view is not scrollable. It makes counting weeks and days a chore when having to swipe and find your place. Make the monthly view scrollable. The other is the home widget does not display tasks that one creates within the app. It displays holidays but nothing that one creates. Please fix and will update to 5 stars!

Used to be a great app until a few weeks ago, now it freezes all the time, struggles to sync and not updating correctly. My desktop app on windows is working fine. Needs to be fixed in the iPhone!!!

This is a good app. I wish it had the go to date feature. I would like to be able to go to a future date or a previous date without having to scroll through the calendar. It would be nice if I could just enter a date and go to it.

The update I ask of google is to add the date to the app icon. By changing from the iOS default calendar to the google calendar this is a major helpful feature that is lost.

I loved using this app for my crazy college schedule, but then after covid happened and we all went online I stopped using it until recently and I’m honestly so frustrated with whatever is going on with this app right now. 1. I can’t color code my different reminders and events anymore which is one of the reasons I used this app. 2. A lot of the features and edits we could make on reminders and events are gone somehow so the only thing I can do when adding an event is add the time and date. 3. Speaking of adding a time to an event, it doesn’t even let me add a start or end time anymore, like what is that about? 4. I can’t add dates to dates that we’ve already passed. This one I could get over but I like adding events to previous dates to see what I did on that day. 5, and probably the most frustrating one of all, whenever I add an event and put a date in for it it literally doesn’t even put it on that date and puts it on a random day. I tried it multiple times with different dates, past and present, and it did the same thing every time. I’m really frustrated with whatever happened to this app because I honestly can’t even use this app anymore with how many issues that have developed since I stopped using and I don’t even know how to fix it or get it to work the way it’s supposed to. Maybe I can’t, and I don’t think I can, and this is a job for the developers to look into and maybe fix, but I’m just annoyed about all of the issues and these need to be fixed.

I’d give it a minus star. Hate it. It replaced a fabulous one I had for many years that had no cutesy pictures and one a one step add and edit. Some young person needed to get silly and I have to go back to paper to see weeks and months.

I don’t know why I thought that the calendar feature on my IPhone would be too difficult for me to figure out how to use. However, after only a couple of “lessons,” (from the most knowledgeable, excellent IPhone expert I’ve ever known, my son, who’s currently at NCSU completing his degree in Computer Engineering 😉😂) I had gotten up to speed regarding the use of this great calendar feature! Like most people, no matter where I am on the go, I’ve got my cell phone with me. Now, this means that I’ve got my calendar with me, too... so no more making plans/appointments on a little paper calendar that you can fit it in your purse, back pocket, random piece of paper, and then having to write what you scheduled down again several times on your calendar at home, at work, and wherever else you keep a calendar... or I remember the most frustrating thing for me!! ... no more making an appointment for something like a follow up time to see your doctor or planning a lunch date, only to arrive home, check your calendar, and discover that you’d just double booked yourself... Once you were finished sweeping the floor, having gotten up most of your hair that you’d just torn out, and answered four IPhone calls, calmly explaining that the screaming that they’d just heard must have come from her TV and that she’d get that turned down right away...so sorry to have bothered you... yes, you never really do know these days... thank you for your concern... oh, yes. I definitely would do the same for you for sure...yada, yada, yada, yada, blah, blah... blllaaahhh. ...And then I got myself calm and collected and decided which of the two that I’d double booked was going to be the most gracious to me about my need to change the plans we’d just made. Yep! I love the IPhone calendar!

This app helps my whole family stay. Onnexted and be “in the know” of what’s happening and when with our family.

Widget is so ugly and no options. Looks like no time whatsoever was put into it. Come on! Still haven’t added any of these from a review I wrote years ago. They obviously don’t listen to their customers at all. Option to gray out past/previous days so it’s easier to see the current day your on. Shade the weekends a different color to stand out. Add the current date or renaming events for the day to the icon. So many other calendar apps do it, such a basic feature to add. Ability to make the month view the default view. When I tap the event in month view, take me to that event instead of the entire day.

So annoying. Everytime I delete and edit an event, it freezes on me. This has been happening for months but I've been too lazy to complain but now it's just annoying!!!

It used to be my favorite calendar app. But they changed something, and working with this app has been so frustrating. The most basic need for adding events in different color category is nonexistent!!!!! I will stop there

I may just be doing something wrong, but when i create a reminder in the future, it doesn't save to the right date. For example I saved a "Physics class" reminder for tomorrow, and set it to repeat weekly, but when I hit save the reminder is suddenly set to repeat every sunday?

I’ve deleted all of Google’s apps until they are updated and Google complies with Apple’s privacy reports. It’s interesting that these apps used to get weekly updates and now have not been updated in TWO MONTHS. Makes me wonder what Google doesn’t want us to see.

Google Calendar won’t show the date on the app logo unlike the default one on apple which can tell you it immediately if you just look at app logo.

Bugged with the inability to change the date for recurring reminders. I select Tuesday, the reminder goes to Monday. Huge failure here, I can’t rely on this app to function.

Full of bugs and awful to use

Please insert Persian language.

Every time I try to save a reminder, it schedules it for a different day. I give up, it will not save things to the correct day and it’s extremely frustrating.

I downloaded Google Calendar because I prefer the more detailed month view where I can see my events at a glance with fewer taps. I uninstalled Google Calendar because it never sent me notifications for my events. One of the most important parts of a calendar app, you'd think. I double checked, triple checked, quadruple checked that I had them turned on in settings. I turned them on for the lock screen, for the notification center, for banners. I wanted them everywhere. Never appeared. I expect better from Google. Oh well.

This app helps plan my schedule and it helps me achieve goals! I just started using this app 10 days ago. I highly recommend this app!! It helps me organize what I have to day to day!

This Is a Amazing software that I love I used this for a while and it’s been keeeping me on track forever it’s as good as apple’s Calander but this one is super good as well. #First review

With billions of dollars of money at their disposal, they can absolutely update the app to show the date in the app icon without a user needing to open the app to look for today’s date. The fact that they haven’t, after years of complaints, proves that Google just DGAF about their users. Prove us wrong Google and fix it.

I can’t STAND that I can’t scroll through the calendar. It makes it so hard to count the weeks when I’m scheduling follow up appointments for people. It seems so obvious. Of course we want to scroll! We don’t want to flip through pages! Ugh. Really frustrating. I already complained through the app but never heard back from anyone.

Make the face of the APP icon correspond to the actual date. It is highly inconvenient that it displays 31 everyday of the month.

Why is it so hard to create a new calendar on the app. It doesn’t seem like I can do it at all which is a huge pain in the arse.

I like this app, but I think they should add some more features. Firstly, more colors, because I like using different colors for different kinds of events. Secondly, an undo option would help greatly, when accidentally editing an event. Thirdly, more photos for different locations that actually depict what the place looks like. Oh, also, I forgot to mention that a lot of the time I am missing classes and things because my notifications don’t appear sometimes, even though I set notifications for this app! Additionally, due to the recent update, we are unable to see upcoming events. Please change this back!!!!

They need to make this available on the Apple Watch

1) The UI lags too much. 2) Goals that I put in to fulfill everyday do not appear every day, not even in the same week. 3) It was designed by incompetent idiots, because if it were actually good, when I say “Mornings” are the best time for a certain goal, I reallllllly mean MORNINGS, not afternoons, and not whenever else the app randomly wants to put it. 4) I have to move a misplaced event more than once. 5) The UI is slow. If I am opting for the most simple pattern of events and goals, which would be to have the same things at the same time every single day, CLEARLY, it should be easy for the app to put everything in at the same time I put in as for the day before. It often either takes more than an hour to do it, or it doesn’t do it at all. 6) The design, the setup, the mobility is beautiful to me. But I want to throw my phone out the window when pretty design won’t do crap. I honestly don’t know how this app has 4.6 stars when many of the most recent reviews put it at sub-par quality. Looking pretty isn’t enough Google.

It helps keeping track for what you have to do in the days of your life

Every time an event is created it shows it twice on the calendar and I also wish you can add your own picture to the event or invitation.

Exactly what I expect from a Calendar app and integrates nicely with cross-platform usage. But why isn’t there a way to change the Calendar assignment once an event is created?! Please consider making that feature available in the near future.

I missed the first 15 minutes of my class 😂 luckily it was syllabus week. I checked the notifications and everything is set to “on” so it should work but it isn’t. Maybe a bug?

I am very disappointed with google calendar for ios. I loved how it showed all schedules on whole month calendar on Android. Not on ios.

Please add an updated widget set for iOS! I’d like to see multiple days in advance as opposed to just the current day.

I love the overall look of the app, the functionality, and how user friendly it is. However, I’m having issues with setting the reminders. I’m setting a reminder for a specific day but every time I save it, it doesn’t save for that day (I.e. I set a reminder to do something on Thursday but when I save the reminder it saves under Wednesday). I just need some explanation as to why that occurs. Overall, I like this app better than other calendar apps.

Update - thanks for bringing back the extended week preview in the widget!!! Original - The app in itself is very nice. My only complaint is that the widget now shows only the current day’s schedule, instead of showing the upcoming week’s schedule. The previously supported extended view was a great feature, and because of this “downgrade”, I’ve now switched over to the iOS default calendar. Bring the previous view back!

No problem with the app, but the widget is sad. Compare it to the native Apple calendar widget - is it really so hard for Google to do something similar?

I wish we could add picture on the event. In my case a picture of the dog ( I am the owner of a mobile dog groomer business). This calendar doesn't have anything different from the Apple calendar.

Widget doesn’t display events made by goal, tasks, or reminders.

Basic functions in this calendar work well, but the repeating events function has worked inconsistently for as long as I have used it. Sometimes it works for awhile, then suddenly, without my changing anything, it’s all screwed up and I am forced to delete the event and start over again.

If you have more than 10 reminders and you want to delate them you have to go one by one and that’s so annoying. The reminder doesn’t go to the day you put it, I was putting a reminder for December 28 and the reminder was set up for January 4 and I change to December 28 but it put it again to January 4, so annoying. Please help. I prefer to use some papers as a reminder, works better; using this app just give problems. The reminders disappear, I have a daily schedule and for one moment to the other is just not there anymore so annoying. Thanks for trying to make a good app but it just not work right for me.

Medium widget won’t display more than 1 all day event but there is plenty of space for that and even upcoming events would be possible.

I think Tasks is the only major improvement of a Google Calendar over the default Apple Calendar. However it’s only a feature in the web app, not the iOS app- which is a shame!

This app works great to keep me and my appointments on track. I couldn’t function without my calendar. The only minor complaint I have, which can be easily fixed, is that the app icon doesn’t show the current date. The Apple standard calendar app reflects the current date and this one doesn’t. Would be a nice feature to add.

Since they like taking down my reviews I'll do this again. This app does the opposite of enhancing productivity. Does the opposite as it always requires restarting to get basic things done (like editing text in an event). Would be quicker just to right things down

So many times when you schedule reminders on certain days, it just completely changes when you save it into another day. Extremely frustrating.. major issues with the apps software

I recommend this for work and personal use!

All of a sudden I can’t add a recurring reminder. I set a reminder for Jan 3 repeating every two weeks and it switches it to Jan 9. Not even the same day of the week. Over and over until I gave up and am now writing this review.

Color coding is much better than Apple calendar, and whole layout is easier to see at a glance than Apple. Only question, is it /will it be possible to search back more than a year? That’s a feature I often miss in Apple calendar, and am forced to use the online full version of Google calendar to find past events. If it’s not possible with the Google calendar app, I’ll probably just uninstall it.

Even with settings on properly

The iPhone and the actual website have a great source for tasks and all these new features. The iPad app does not have these. Please please add them it’s a huge game changer!!

Google does fabulous, magical things. But on your calendar why can’t you change it on the little logo that when it is October 1 to show a number “1” ? And when it is October 2 why can’t you show a number “2”? And when it is October 3 why can’t you show a number “3” ? Why does it always have to say 31? For your information on my iPhone it comes with a calendar app and I keep that app just to know the date sometimes at a quick glance. I wish I could delete it, but then I have to dig into my phone to find out what the date is. I guess Google isn’t the fabulous magical company that I always thought it was.

I’ve used this calendar for a long time and loved all its benefits and the way I could see things and sync w my husbands calendar. However, all of a sudden the letters are so so tiny and small that it can hardly be read . It bothers me so. I do not want to change calendars but I may have to. Please fix this and go back to the way it looked before.

At first I was able to click links and add events to the calendar. Now it won't allow me to. I have to do it from my laptop. Very disappointed. Working in Real Estate, it is more convenient for me to add events on the spot, having to remember to when I get to my laptop is frustrating. Please fix.

The app is very limited. Most of the features are only usable from a desktop browser. For instance, you cannot create a new calendar from the app.

The new update is missing an imports feature. There isn’t a way to use the mobile app to add invitees

format is ugly. can’t change much myself. :(

Google Calendar is absolutely great and I totally recommend it. I have all sorts of things on there and it helps me remember stuff which is awesome. Even a reminder to get on school zoom every day, lol. Thanks Google this is a great app!

Recently switched from using the native Apple calendar to the Google calendar app as my calendars are all on Google. While generally I like it better, the one thing that I miss that surprised me is that the Apple calendar icon shows the actual date whereas the Google calendar icon always shows 31st. I like being able to glance at it and see what date it is. I didn’t even realize I did that until I found I couldn’t with this app.

I switched over to Google Calendar because they added a widget, but it only lets me show one event!! If I do more than one all day event, it doesn’t display the event name, it just says ‘2 all day entries’. If you could change it so it can display some of the actual event names that would Be wonderful, and maybe make the larger widget? Then I will switch all the way to Google Calendar

I think that the goal setting was a really neat feature. It doesn’t seem to show your progress in the circles of how many goals you had completed for the week. Other than that, the app works great!

I have reported this weekly since January 23, 2020 and it’s still unresolved. The iOS version of Google Calendar has a 1024 character limit while creating “Reminders” and "Events". Once the 1024 character limit is reached, no additional characters can be added. Additionally, if a text selection contains 1024 or greater characters is copied, it will not paste into the text box that says "Remind me to..." or "Enter title". The Android Google Calendar version does NOT have a character limit. Can the iOS version of Google Calendar be updated so that it does not have a 1024 character limit?

I don’t get alerts for anything I’ve set a reminder on. I’m not the only one having this issue either.

Wish it had current date on app icon and along with event, reminders, and goals - a note optional or other option and more color options to choose from. Otherwise, just brilliant!!! Great to use for multiple family members.

Seriously, It’s almost 2021 and Google can’t figure how to get today’s date (and day) on the calendar app icon? Even Apple has it working! Love it otherwise. Will reset rating to 5, once G fixes it!

Bottom half of the app doesn’t even work. If I can’t scroll to bring it to the top half than I can’t click it.

The app is great but could they make it where the app icon displays the current date?

On iPhone XS. App constantly needs to be terminated and restarted because it will stop allowing users to type.

I love how the system works but I wish there was an option in settings where completed reminders automatically delete there self

Would have been 5 stars but there is currently a glitch when inviting others to the event. I send an invite to an event. The email that is received says an incorrect time in the subject and the correct time on the event.

This app has not only helped keep my life organized, but my family’s as well. Having the ability to share my calendar with multiple family members and being able to see their calendars as well is a live saver. The way the events are layer out is perfect! My only want is to be able to see all of my events on the new Home Screen widget. I don’t like how it displays one event and tells me that there is more. I would like to just be able to see them all.

Do not get this i repeat i was hacked with all my stuff including my zoom accout link and more i repeat do not get

My life has completely changed because this app is a good way to keep check of your self.
