User reviews

Users praise 'Text to Google Calendar' for its ability to save time by quickly creating calendar events from selected text. It is flexible, easy to use, and efficiently parses dates and times. However, multiple users report issues with time zone support and date format recognition (favoring US format), requiring manual fixes. Location detection is limited, with locations placed in descriptions rather than event fields. Some users express concerns about the extension not being free or clearly stating its cost upfront.

Game changer! Saves me sooo much time - so glad I bought this. A couple things I wish it did were (1) allow me to change the google calendar it posts to. I am logged into my work gmail, but I want it to default to my personal google calendar instead of having to manually shift, and (2) I wish it would add the URL from where I created the event to the description so I can reference it later if needed. Outside of those two things, this is an amazing extension - I can't wait to see what AI assistants can do in the future.
