- Extension status: Featured
Mark events as completed or cancelled in Google Calendar with emojis or strikethroughs.
It's perfect tool for those who regularly use Google Calendar in their browser and want to boost productivity, especially in learning how to mark events as done or canceled. The extension is minimal, adding just one button to the event save page, and it doesn't collect any user data.
Features:
- Customizable visual cue: choose between emojis (✅ or ❌) or a strikethrough effect (title crossed off).
- Timestamps for Easy Reference: automatically saves the timestamp of completion or cancellation in the event's description, helping you keep track of your progress.
- Minimal and Privacy-Oriented: We respect your privacy. This extension is designed to be minimalistic, does not track any user data, and only requires access to Google Calendar pages.
How to Use:
1. Open an event in Google Calendar for editing.
2. Click the completion marks button (✅) and save event.
3. Witness the completion mark in action across all views.
To customize visual cues and adjust other settings, visit the extension options page.

- Domingo Vazquez
- Works pretty well, but I’d love to use the feature without opening the event or with a shortcut to mark it complete. It also doesn’t work with Google Calendar’s "Focus Time", which would be really useful. Hope the team comes up with some upgrades. Blessings!
- Jordan Goldstein
- Not seeing check mark option in the quick access change settings Not seeing check mark option in the quick access change settings only when i open the event fully
- Debbie Kramer
- This is AWESOME, but is there a way to do it from the APP on the phone?
- Gevorg Kevin Grigoryan
- Awesome. Feature request: wish we can check off complete right from the preview screen; when you click on the event once, a small white box comes up with preview and it has pencil, trash can, etc icons. It would be awesome to have the button right there to check off as complete, as opposed to going inside the event and checking off there.
- Kavindu Gayashan
- love it.
- Danh Nguyen
- OMG, I love it, really love it!!!
- Jamie Tomkins
- Works great for what we need, but I wish there was a way to add another icon for when we need that, instead of a check or x.
- Elvia Garza
- Love it, but it needs more options for the checkmark

- Didn't work for me. Only showed up about 30% of the time.

- Works exactly as expected. Thank you for this extension! What would make this A+ perfect for me is if this also contained a setting to change the color coding of the event. E.g., I like to change my completed events/tasks to gray.

- It was working fine for the past two weeks. Today suddenly the check mark has disappeared. :( (Update: It's fixed now!)

- This is a great idea, but I wish there were more aesthetic options, like a checkmark emoji without the bright green box. The box can be confusing or distracting if you already use emojis on your calendar, e.g., to indicate different types of events so you can tell them apart quickly. It's also not ideal if you're aiming to keep your calendar's color scheme subtle and calm. I may use it in the future, but it's not quite what I need right now.

- This extension worked great for about a week. Now it no longer allows strikesthrough completed or cancelled events. The check mark and "x" shows up but is non-functional. Please fix !

- This extension had exactly the functionality I needed but unfortunately it only worked half the time. I open an event and there is no green check option for me to strikethrough the text. Please fix! This would be so helpful if it worked!

- I really like the strikethrough effect however it would be great if you could choose which emoji you wanted instead of the kinda ugly green one. But it works really well so I'm not complaining.

- It really is absolutely fantastic & now is an essential feature on my calendar. If it was possible to check off events from Android as well it would be even better!! Many thanks to the developers.

- Roddi Veet
- Hi, is there an option to add more than one box, so it can look like the event was made or not like red and green color?

- Exactly what I was looking for! Now I can use google calendar to manage due dates without having to use tasks, which doesn't allow bulk csv import.

- Very very cool. Exactly what I was looking for, For those of us using Brave, make sure Brave Shields is down for google calendar.
- Mike D
- Helpful! I don't understand why this isn't already a built-in feature from Google. I wish I could do this on Android App or by right clicking on the event.

- AWESOME extension, I manage tasks and time in Google Calendar and this allows you to cross them out AND (optionally) add a check mark in front of the calendar item. Simple and perfect.

- Oh this is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you! So easy to setup and use. I am using it for a "School" calendar for my boys (homeschool) so they can mark the task as completed when they finish it.

- Love this extension, but it randomly stopped working for me. The little green check mark box disappeared Google Calendar. 5 stars if you can get it fixed!
