User reviews

Tags for Google Calendar™ is a popular extension for visually tagging events which greatly enhances calendar organization and productivity. Users love its simplicity, effective visual impact, and prompt developer support. However, multiple reviews report that as of early 2024, tagging functionality has broken due to Google Calendar updates, affecting visibility of tags in calendar views. Users also note lack of clear instructions and the extension's limitation to normal events only (not tasks). Despite these issues, many users remain loyal and hope for quick fixes from the responsive developer.
