Notion Calendar

This app works great, I use it every day for work, on my iPhone and on my computer through the browser. It syncs quickly with all my other calendar services, and the ability to show scheduled tasks from my Notion boards is really convenient. My only gripe with the app, and it’s a big one, is that there is no month view. I have needed to keep the Google Calendar app on my phone just so I can see a full month at a time, which I need to do anytime I’m trying to schedule meetings more than a week in advance. I’ve almost deleted this app many times since juggling two apps is inconvenient, but my Notion tasks won’t show up on Google Calendar so I’m sorta stuck with it. Works perfectly in the browser on my laptop though, where it has a great month view, and that ends up being where I use it the most.

Overall the app is very clean and modern, much like the Notion app. The one thing I don’t understand is why there isn’t an Agenda or Monthly view for the calendar. I use the agenda view all the time in other apps and it’s a standard view in any calendar app I’ve used, so I’m not sure why it doesn’t exist within Notion’s calendar app. I’m trying to get used to the 3-day view but I typically like to see more of a schedule forecast in the days to come without scrolling all the time. Outside of adding a couple more views to enhance the user experience and appeal to everyone’s preferences, the app is great. It does exactly what you want it to. Having the ability to natively sync with my notion databases is awesome and helps me stay on task. I would certainly recommend any/all Notion products!

There’s a lot of reviews that talk about the pros and cons of the app but let me just say my favorite thing is I don’t immediately create a new event if I just fat finger my phone and hit a random spot on the calendar. So much time wasted on hitting a random spot on Google calendar and I’m like no I didn’t mean to please - no event oh god! Love the design and the way information is presented it makes it feel less overwhelming. I would love a 5 day view - 3 days is great because it’s intentional but getting the work week in one viewable window would be helpful. I know Google calendar forces the whole week on you though which I don’t totally love either. Either way I’m excited to see where the app goes from here!
