Don’t get me wrong, there’s a lot to like about Google Calendar. It’s free, easy to use, and works seamlessly with the company’s other services, including Gmail, Drive, and Tasks. It’s even integrated with Gemini, so you can do things like prompt it to make a calendar entry.

However, the app does have its downsides. It lacks any visual flair whatsoever, which is a common theme among Google apps. It doesn’t support natural language processing, so you have to add in the date and time manually instead of just writing it out, like you can with most other tools these days. And the fact that it’s owned by Google is a concern for some, since not everyone trusts their data with the tech giant.
