Google Calendar: Get Organised 4+

I use various Gmail and Google Workspace accounts and this puts them all together well. Has nice functions like pulling in events from Mail etc. The goals feature is pretty neat and even syncs with Apple Health for fitness related bits. Being able to use Google maps for event locations gives you good and accurate time to leave notifications.

The one thing I would love to be added is event templates. If you have the same types of events that you put in your calendar all the time because you have appointment based work, it takes too long to enter in events. This feature that I get in third party apps is essential to me. I’d love to see it built in to this app.

Another thing that could be improved across Google calendars services generally is appointments. They could be so good, but they currently miss the mark.

It is a nice improvement over the Apple one which I used less. This one puts in data without me having to do anything which means I can rely on it more. There are just two things I have come across that it seems to be lacking which I would like implemented. The first is that I would love if you showed the day and the date on the icon. Now I glance at my phone and all I see is 31 which is wrong and to be honest it bothers me. The other thing is something I really hope you will implement but I don’t have high hopes. You currently search my gmail for receipts/data etc to add into calendar but I have another email account (through another provider) I would like to be included in your searches. Any way this could be done? I realise you might not want to do this as it’s not gmail but you could lay the ground rule that the main email account must be gmail for it to work.

This is a great app but would be nice to have a setting which allowed for the full 24hrs to be shown at once, especially for those of us with the bigger Phoebe screens. Also the ability to scroll across the week view without having to move 7 days at once. Once more when events collide, allow them to overlap slightly, perhaps don't budge them over quite so much or you end up with a tiny bar in the week view and you can't read what the event says. Also if the app icon would show the actual date like the Apple Calendar app does. Lastly if the google apps communicated with each other such as google maps automatically giving an estimated leave reminder by calculating how long it will take me to arrive at an event via my most used mode of transport. Would love these ideas to be implemented.
