Google Calendar vs Notion calander

Although both Notion Calendar and Google Calendar are excellent calendars, I use both of them. How? I use two different apps, Google Calendar on my phone and Notion Calendar on my laptop. They are both synchronized, so whatever task I make on one of them will automatically sync with the other.

I don’t have the motivation to check my phone when using my laptop because of this. With my browser, I can use Google Calendar, but I don’t experience any problems with the Notion calendar.

Notion Calendar’s beautiful and simple design makes it stand out. It synchronizes with Google Calendar instantly, and adding events on the side where you have to open another window is as simple as clicking on it.

Both calendars are better to use and have lots of functionality to use. But here google wins because,

1. If you use Google Calendar then It’s everywhere, on your PC, laptop, mobile phone, or tablet.
2. If you use Notion Calendar, you have to download it for all of your devices.
