• (2025-06-05) Danny Lyubenov: Just what i needed, but my OCD is kicking in because the names of the week gets slightly cropped once i enabled the extension :(
• (2025-02-06) Jérôme Alteyrac: just what I wanted !
• (2024-11-13) Paul Chipperfield: I think this should be great but like an earlier post the colours only highlight the top and not the whole day. 2.1.4 installed today. Update.....Yes it works but only in week view, not in month view. Further edit.November 2024. Works beautifully now. Thank you Riccardo (Slow response due to hospital).
• (2024-08-09) nyx f: Incredible app and user support! It's simple, elegant, and flexible. I appreciate having complete control of the colors. This is an indispensable tool for anyone who needs see the day of the week as quickly as possible. I am prone to making scheduling mistake and adding custom color coding has changed my workflow completely. I am not exaggerating when I say that I can't function without this app. In addition, I really appreciate the dev's attention to detail and eagerness to address even the most minor of bugs. He responds quickly and provides clear instructions. Thanks again Riccardo! NF
• (2024-05-23) Vinícius Pimentel Couto: Great extension! It stopped working once and I noticed how much I missed it. Thankfully Riccardo was really helpful and quickly updated the extension with a fix, as well as provided a workaround so I could get it working while the update didn't get pushed to me. First donation due to an extension, this is one of those things that should be default in the calendar.

• (2024-03-30) Elodie Bonckaert: Thank you
• (2024-03-26) John Wagner: Only puts a tiny strip of color at the top of the Saturday and Sunday columns. It doesn't shade the actual boxes for each Saturday and Sunday
• (2024-03-04) Megan Lee: Used to work great, but now doesn't show up, even if I remove from Chrome and reinstall. Only shows up as a itty bitty strip of colour at the top of my Google Calendar, but not enough to highlight the weekend column by a long shot. Please fix, I want to use it again!

• (2023-04-26) Julien BERTAULT: Works fine, minus Google Calendar refresh bug (just jump to another week/month) and it will show.

• (2023-04-10) Works great! I only have one problem, but it's my fault (lack of knowledge): I can't find how to get to the settings to make a change. The only solution I found is to remove it, install it again and then the configuration page appears automatically. Excuse my ignorance! But it's just what I was looking for!
• (2023-02-10) lee marco: sorry, but it doesn't work for me too. I tried to clean the cache and cookies, and reinstall again and again. Well, finally I GIVE IT UP NOW........

• (2022-12-01) Steven Harriss: I just can't seem to get it to work - I've changed the settings to every combination I can think of but nothing ever changes on the calendar - a complete waste of time. I really can't think what I'm doing wrong as there isn't much to configure.

• (2021-12-19) Amitab Sood: Thank you for this extension! I have problem though. The extension keeps forgetting the settings for Language and Weekenddays and thus will not show Weekends in the calender. Right after installation it did work and also on some rare occasions it shows up, but then it forgets it again. When I set the settings again on optionspage and then close and open the optionspage it has forgotten the settings already, most of the times. I can not figure out the pattern, when and when not it will work. Deleting and reinstalling did not solve the problem. I have about 10 other (productivity) extensions, and never have any proplems there. Do you have any Ideas, what I could try?

• (2021-04-26) Dottie Bowles: I've only started using this extension and I just love it! It works seamlessly and is very useful! I would love to be able to choose a color for any of the days, or each day, like if you could have each day of the week have a color selector. For my case specifically; I would want the weekends and Wednesday to all have the ability to change color. Although I'm sure others would also love to be able to set any color to any day. -- Such a useful extension! :)

• (2019-09-06) Guy Marais: This is pretty convenient, but it could be very much improved by being able to see Sat/Sun in a customised view. I use the calendar showing the next 7 days, and I'd find it extremely useful if the weekends could also show. In this case, I'd definitely give it a 5-star rating. Think about it for the next update. Thanks! Edit: It works now: 5-star! Excellent job!

• (2019-09-05) Yaab (Amir Yabo): Used to work fine. Starting from new update (Sep 2019) week and month views are handled ok, while customized view (2 weeks in my case) don't show weekend colors.

• (2019-07-23) Robert Andrews: This is great, very useful. Has even got me thinking about a few enhancements... - Colour-picker. - How about colour-coding other days? In fact, how about colour-blocking particular time windows *within* days? - eg. 9am-5pm is a work zone and, therefore, red.

• (2019-01-14) Steph H.: Really need the extension to allow us to identify weekend days. My week starts on Sunday out of preference, which makes the "weekend" colors appear on Friday and Saturday in error. While this might be applicable to users in Israel, for example, where Friday is not a workday, having the ability to indicate which dates are our personal weekend would be very useful. Would also be applicable to people who work non-traditional schedules and have their days off mid-week.
