Events not showing on widget.

I recently bought this app just so I could have a widget of Google Calendar on my Mac because I don’t have an iPhone anymore. It’s simple, basically a simplified version of the regular google calendar. Also has most of the feature of google calendar. but not being able to see my upcoming events on the widget is so annoying. It’s kinda exactly why I wanted the widget and it’s not working. I also am running Tahoe 26 beta 3. Im not sure if this is just something happening because I’m on a new beta version. If you’re just looking for google calendar widget for your Mac I think this would be perfect if they’re able to fix this issue. UPDATE!! the devs emailed me and helped me fix my issue. This issue was user error. I will say tho I don’t think I would have figured out how to fix the events not showing up if it wasn’t for a video or help from someone. I’m very thankful the devs not only helped me but responded very quickly to issue I was having. I can say now this is exactly was I was looking for. If you want a Gcal widget that works on Mac without having an iPhone and also looks like the original Gcal widget on iPad I HIGHLY recommend this one! thank you devs!
Developer Response
Hi do0tin, Thanks for your feedback. The Widgets should be working properly on Tahoe 26, I did some updates on GCal this summer to prepare for Tahoe 26. Maybe a setting issue. Feel free to email me at support@yellowmonkey.studio for more information. Best regards, Dalis
EXCELLENT Google Calendar Application

I have been using this application for years and have no idea why it has so many negative reviews. Earlier it was not perfect and did have some glitches, but the new update is amazing and is exactly what any heavy-duty Google calednar user would want. It works exactly like Google calendar online and also has nice native macOS keyboard shortcut features. I have had no issues with links and creating new events. Making new events is easy; it is just like the web version of Google calendar.RAM is usage heavy compared to other native applications (roughly as much as a Chrome plugin), but still reasonable.Dark mode is good but there's too much 'glow' at times and the text for scheduled events do not have enough of a contrast with background colors. Would be nicer if the dark theme took a more modern and 'flat' approach, but is still a fine theme.I would use this over other GCal calendar applications such as Woven, and this is superior to Apple's built-in caledar if you're a Google Calendar user.Overall, excellent application and amazing update!
Excellent!

Very usable Mac desktop app for viewing and editing Google calendars. Attractive, straightforward, usable interface, and everything seems to work exactly as it should. This is the only non-browser app I've found that shows not only my own Google calendara, but also other Google calendars shared with me exactly as in the browser view of Google Calendar.I can also testify that customer support is excellent, as I had a little problem when I first installed the app (user error?), and the developer contacted me within half a day to help.Highly recommend!
Has Potential

I don't know why there isn't a dark mode, or theme built into the normal Google Calendar, but the main reason I bought this app was for the dark mode. And in a lot of ways this app is good. It shows me my calendar, has all the normal features I like and is great... as long as you don't change the view from wherever it's set. For example, I set it to the Week view, and if I try to change to the day or the month it just locks up. Eventually it usually updates but I typically end up having to close it and reopne it. If it worked smoothly I would give it five stars, but it just feels janky, and as I'm trying to use it for work and look ahead and behind for appointments, I just can't handle the level of jank this app has. Back to the web client and Dark Reader I guess.
