Google Calendar is now available to everyone on Google Play
One of the most useful and well-known tools of Google comes to Google Play We refer to Google Calendar, which, after only appearing on some devices Androidlike the Nexus S and the Glaxy Nexus, now available for all other devices of this operating system. Something that many users will appreciate, but not all, since it is only available for the latest versions of AndroidSomething that increases the possibilities of Google Calendar, but in a somewhat limited way.
For those who don't know it, it is a most useful management and productivity tool. And it is not a mere calendar where we write down our appointments Allows us to receive notifications, link and sync other calendars, create common appointments with other users to have a direct communication, create and respond to invitations, and much more. Something truly useful for companies, students and anyone who needs organization, now also through their smartphoneor tablet
However, as we say, Google Calendar arrives somewhat limited to Google Play , because only users with devices updated to the latest two versions of the Android operating system will be able to enjoy it.Specifically those that have Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0) or Jelly Bean (4.1). Versions that are still are not in the majority and are not available for all current smartphones. A requirement that may be essential for the functions of this application, or a pressure movement for users with devices behinddecide to take the plunge.
Google Calendar allows all the aforementioned functions, with a comfortable and complete calendar where to record all our actions. However, taking advantage of the occasion, the people of Google have also decided to make some changes and updatethe application that some users were already lucky enough to use. Changes that are different depending on the version of Android:
For Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0):
– Displays event-specific colors.
– A mail is sent to all invitees to an event from a notification with a message customizable.
– You can postpone reminders from the notifications to be alerted when the appointment is closer.
For Jelly Bean (4.1):
– Improves compatibility with non-Nexus.
– The time range of timed events extends from one year before to one year after.
– You send feedback to Google from the app.
A point in favor of this application is its widgetA shortcut that can be placed on any desktop of the terminal, being able to know our appointments with just a glance, without having to access the application itself. Although some users have already criticized it for not being able to fully manage it, something we hope for Google fix with upcoming updates
