About this app

Your Calendar Widget is a widget, that can be used on the homescreen, lockscreen and your notification bar to show your upcoming Google Calendar events. You can easily configure and adapt the widget to your needs. Each widget has its own configuration. This allows you to have several widgets with different calendar- and display-settings.


Features
• The widget can be used on the homescreen, the lockscreen and in the notification bar
• Almost every element can be adapted to your personal preferences
• Agenda, inline-agenda and simple display mode. There is a variety of different event display options
• Various options for event-visualization in order to identify upcoming events more easily (timeline, badges, notifications, font and background settings)
• The month-calendar provides full access to the entire calendar right from the homescreen
• View birthdays and anniversaries of your contacts
• With the Task Integration tasks can be viewed and edited (Google Tasks, Microsoft To Dos)
• Countless predefined themes provided by the system and the community
• Events can be filtered using the event title
• Any number of widgets can be created, each with its own configuration

Ratings and reviews

Really well done widget! Never crashes, never fails to update. Great customization. Looks really sharp and works well. I really want to support the developer and get rid of ads, but the price for the premium version is absurdly high for a widget, especially if you want Google tasks integration. If not for that would easily rate five stars. Ads are not too obtrusive, so I've used anyway for years and recommend you do too.

Used to love this widget but it now doesn't show any google "family" events despite the calendar(s) being selected in settings. I tried all troubleshooting steps listed in the description here multiple times. It just doesn't recognize any event created this way regardless of updates to calendar account in the event. It means a LOT of events don't appear on the widget unless I create a new event with a non-family calendar selected initially. I use family calendars for a reason, so disappointing.

I like apps with enough settings to customize until they look and behave how I want. This one has the most tweakability by far. It's not required but if you take the time, it will look great forever (and there's a config backup!). Wish I could include screenshots to show how beautiful this widget can be. A suggestion: an option to stop the calendar from switching months when you select days not in the current month. Maybe switch only when selecting the corner days (the ones with little arrows).
