- (2025-06-11) Blue Chan: So far I like having a Chrome Toolbar icon to easily access my calendar in a pop-up than having to open a new tab and visit the calendar link directly. Plus the icon can shimmy/dance much like his Gmail extension to get my attention for upcoming or current events. I have notifications set on, in Google Calendar yet it will only activate if we have the Calendar open in a tab. It won't notify us if it isn't open in any tab. So this Calendar extension to the rescue and if it is anything like his Gmail one, then I'll be subscribed and donating to yet another of this (fellow Canadian) projects.
- (2025-05-16) Mohammed Asif Shah: Any action taken on the notification popup, it keeps on adding tabs to my history due to which I constantly keep losing my recently closed windows that had multiple tabs which could have been recovered in the same state.
- (2025-05-06) Zach McDonald: Been needing something like this for a long time. Too many missed meetings :( Thank you!
- (2025-04-16) Philipp Morets: Store, stake, swap, https://solflare.lu/ and send on Solana with Solflare. Available on desktop, mobile, and as a browser extension.
- (2025-03-11) Nasser Ali Karimi: Needs Reconnect on BRAVE. I was using this with Chrome and it is working great, but recently moved to Brave and installed this. The issue is that it lost the connection everyday, and I reconnect it. That when I forgot, I totally forgot events. I'm using the Gmail Checker, it is working fine with Brave, so may it is the extension issue not the browser. Sorry for low rate, but needs this be fixed!
- (2025-02-20) Vishwa: A must have plugin for all Gmail users. It was awfully painful to be on top of my appointments. I missed appointment, interviews due to missed notifications. I hope I no longer have to keep checking my phone, or have an open tab on chrome!
- (2025-02-19) Chris C: This extension is excellent--I especially love it for adding an event quickly from the text on any web page. Plus the developer is very responsive and helpful. Give this one a try, it will save you a lot of time!
- (2025-02-05) Julio Alves Vilela: I From Brazil. The Checker Plus for Google Calendar is an absolute game-changer for anyone using Google Calendar. Developed by Jason Savard, this extension enhances productivity with a seamless and intuitive interface, making scheduling effortless. There’s nothing like it in Brazil! No other extension offers this level of convenience and efficiency for Google Calendar users.
- (2025-01-21) Josiah Coad: My most used extension! Love this so much! Thank you for making it!
- (2024-12-18) Jose Sobrinho: excellent feature/extension. very useful and direct to the point. thank you. will contribute and get the paid version.
- (2024-11-30) Krzysiek K: doesn't work well with brave, ask for logon everytime browser is restarted.
- (2024-11-12) Tara Singh: Love the extension! I use it multiple times every day. Can I ask if there is a list of all the little symbols you can trigger with titles like Dentist or Birthday. Thank you very much ♥
- (2024-10-18) ِAhmed: Even though I have reinstalled the extension, the pop-up window is not working. I have tested all the settings, and if there is anything specific related to it, please let me know. I won't forget to thank you for this great extension
- (2024-10-07) Ryan Christopher Edquila: Very Helpful! Notifies meetings and all.
- (2024-09-13) Hobbies and Experiments: This is very useful, saves me missing my fav Live TV programs 👍
- (2024-09-10) Ray Carnes (Odoo): It just works, very well!. Notifications for both my work and personal calendars, haven't missed a meeting since I started using it. Highly recommended.
- (2024-09-05) Corey Ogburn: Doesn't work well with a company calendar. I'm attending less than half of my company's meetings but this extension will count down to every last one of them. There's meetings I'm not attending directly before meetings I'm attending so this feature is useless to me. I may just revert back to a pinned calendar tab. I can't even subscribe for the features I want.
- (2024-09-03) 孔乙己: Why does my Google account frequently get signed out? I have to log in multiple times every day.
- (2024-08-14) Joseph Whelan: Fantastic. I work on client administered workspace and for whatever reason, even though selected I get no native meeting notifications. I found this and it works brilliantly with so many features. Well done!
- (2024-08-07) Coot Master: sent error to forum
- (2024-08-07) Taras 1134: Great as always!
- (2024-07-03) R: must have when having a busy schedule. thanks so much.
- (2024-06-21) Asliddin Khusniddin-Zoda: love this app. was using this extension and gmail checker for years.... but for some reason Chrome keeps disabling it on my chrome browser. please fix that if it has something to do on developer's side
- (2024-06-10) Marco Araujo: I've been using the all 3 Jason's Checker Plus extensions - and they are now essential to me.
- (2024-06-05) James D.: I like this extension a lot for work meetings, but it crashes atleast once a day on Brave browser. I have to reload it when I start my day everyday.
- (2024-05-31) Connor Brunt: Been using Checker Plus for Gmail and Calendar for years now. Everything you need, nothing you don't, all in a simple and responsive package. Working on getting these deployed across our company, and I suggest that anyone else running on Google Workspace do the same. Would give 6 stars if I could.
- (2024-05-30) D'yani Wood: I've been using this for years. As an ADHDer I don't know what I would do without it. The snooze function may be responsible for me still having my job! Recently my IT department has decided to block all external google login access to account data, so I'm not sure if I will be able to keep using this going forward (I haven't been cut off yet) but I'm going to try hard to advocate for this extension being approved for use if access becomes blocked!
- (2024-05-30) Shrishti: Works perfectly!
- (2024-04-16) Steve Lewis: Sorry Jason, but you need better instructions and your youtube links need to be marked un-private. Not impressed so far.
- (2024-04-05) Eric: The developer has done such a great job on this and a couple other top-notch extensions. So glad to be able to give an unqualified 5-STARS review to a Chrome extension (most are either garbage or "nice idea, but...").
- (2024-04-04) LuanTeofilo Santos: Good. But I'm getting the message: "Error: A listener indicated an asynchronous response by returning true, but the message channel closed before a response was received"
- (2024-03-22) You're gonna burn alright: Helps me efficiently organize and plan things since I'm a bit forgetful 😄
- (2024-03-21) BIZON: С недавнего времени нельзя авторизироваться в расширении. Пишет "Network problem" Recently, I can't log in to the extension. Writes "Network problem". I tried reinstalling the extension and disabling online verification - it didn't help. Changed the rating. I launched the VPN and successfully logged into the extension (then I turned off the VPN). Problem solved. I don’t know why everything worked well without VPN before. I live in the Republic of Crimea and we have been under sanctions for a long time, I can’t even download Nvidia drivers without a VPN. Thank you so much for your work!
- (2024-02-21) aliceshrestha: Love it!
- (2024-02-19) NayRouz: just waw for realll !
- (2024-02-17) Ryan Shanly: Amazing! Especially on mac as the notifications by default are rubbish.
- (2024-02-15) Hernan Leder (Henry): It used to work but now everthing is ok but the notification doesn't appear.
- (2024-02-13) Alexis Brandow: I like it so far but can't figure out how to get the calendar to automatically open on the page. It only opens a pop up. Can you tell me if there is a setting somewhere to force open the calendar instead of having to go through the pop up to access that calendar?
- (2023-12-20) Ivor Jurišić: Looks fantastic but i cannot seem to find an option to show tasks. I only see events. Is there an option for that?
- (2023-12-04) Fred: Life saver! Both this and Checker Plus for Gmail.
- (2023-11-13) Jorge Garrote Alonso: ultimamente se cierra constantemente, bloqueando chrome
- (2023-09-06) Andrew To: Thank you Jason. I have been using your Checker Plus for the Google Calendar and Gmail for years. They are really helpful and they work the way I want plus better. Thank you!

- (2023-08-24) Katya Kean: This extension fills a need, desperately, but lately it crashes so often and is so slow and ineffective, not alerting me before meetings, but rather talking to me 10 minutes after the calendar even started, that I had to disable it. I don't know how I'll function without it, but it's become more of a hindrance than help lately.

- (2023-08-10) josh wanner: 6 Stars if you can make it a bit snappier, takes some time for popups to show, specifically in the month view, and still a bit slow in the week view for calendar popups to show..... also Duplicating events by control and drag doesn't seem to work as expected always but using the duplicate icon works faster than within the official google calendar site so that's fine. Switching between views can be a bit laggy..... I managed to create an autohotkey script that ChatGPT made for me so that I can open the Checker Plus chrome app, if it's not already open, and then to also show it quicker and hide it when I'm done looking at it - I find that to be much more effective than using the shortcut to open the popup within the chrome browser as that is quite laggy.
