Google Calendar supports offline access from mobile –– but not desktop.

Google Calendar only displays notifications when it is open in your web browser. Regretfully, I did not have it open, so I just missed a meeting.

Firefox will not load Google Calendar this morning. I did not experience this issue before today. I tried reloading the webpage, restarting the browser, disabling uBlock Origin, and restarting the computer. Safari will load Google Calendar though.

@calender Thank you for the tip about Thunderbird. Can you recommend a calendar service with a native app?

As much as I dislike the Google ecosystem, it remains one of the most popular scheduling tools - especially when collaborating with others. I always prefer to have my to-do list and calendar be one & the same, but Google's to-do app is atrocious. At least TickTick is able to integrate with Google Calendar.

Being based on the web, it’s super useful across all Operating Systems.

It’s easy to use, setup, and is very straight forward. If all you need is a calendar program that you can sync with all your devices natively so that you receive alerts and notifications without any unnecessary setup, this is the program for you.

its better to be a reference for your scheduling point because of its weak interface and widget...

Google Calendar is easy to use and features plenty of options for integrating with other calendar and scheduling tools. Its ubiquity makes it easy to use as a reference point for scheduling, and it works as a common tool to introduce new computer and smartphone users into the world of online event scheduling.
