Hi, this is great! Exactly what I was looking for. How do I get the new color to stay on a series of the same event? Thanks!
Works great on desktop
I tried it on my events but after a few hours it stopped working. It does show the colors are added but whenver I would pick my custom colors, it just goes back to the prepicked color by google.
How would I get colors to stay on events that repeat weekly? :)
I do use Gcal some on my phone, but not the biggest deal that it does not show on mobile since I mainly use Gcal for detailed scheduling on my laptop. I do however, wish it did apply to all the events in the series. But I am so happy now to not have to 'share' colors with certain types of events as there is just not enough stock colors for all my event types and I don't want to make multiple calendars where you CAN add more colors. I am glad there are others out there that also wanted more colors!! Thanks for making it!! Oh! AND, you can even use your own hex ####! Awesome!!!
Pretty on the desktop app, but when I look at the calendar on my ipad the colors, they don't transfer. Spent a lot of time updating the colors on my calendar just to realize it did nothing across the app! Sad! Also the reason it took so long to update the calendar in the first place is because it won't apply to event series! Again, it's pretty on the desktop but definitely would be better with a few updates.
Works awesome on the Desktop. How do i get it to show up on my mobile when looking at google calendar there?
Extension works great as a concept and I was able to change the colors of my events to something custom. However, I cannot use it anymore as it slows down my calendar on doing even basic tasks.
This is a great extension with a lot of potential. However, I really wish colors would stay assigned in repeated event series. As is, it is almost too time consuming changing all event colors manually to make using the extension worth it.
Hello! For some reason, after I pick a color in the Hue tab on the top right corner of my screen, I am not able to change any colors of my calendar. How exactly do I work this? Thank you for your time, Ryan
