Hi everyone,

Im currently developing a app called "Your Calendar Widget". The app is now in open beta and I like to share it with you. This app will provide a widget, that shows your upcoming appointments. After installation you can find the widget in the widgets section. I hope you enjoy it!

Manuel

Integrate Tasks

Could you have integration with to-do list apps so that they'll be displayed at the top before the events? And allow us to select whether to add a google event/task when pressing the add button. That'll be awesome imo! the UI is beautiful. Also, does it come with a refresh button/auto refresh when I add new events?

Hi Bernardyip,
thanks for your feedback!

Yes, the next steps will go in this direction.

the UI is beautiful.
Thank you! :)

The Widget will update itself automatically after update/creating events.

Regards,
Manuel

looks not that bad. i could see all my events, also the events from third party syncs like davdroid. It would be great if the tasks could be also visible in the widget.

Hi Lifear,
thanks for your feedback. Can you elaborate on the tasks? Im not familiar with tasks on android. What kind of app you use for them?

Best regards,
Manuel

Tasks or Todo's are part of my Calendar. Im using CalDAV as Calendar Provider and sync these via DavDroid also to Android. On the Server, Task's are very similar to Calendar Events. The Main difference is, that a Calendar Entry is a vEvent Entry and a task is a vTodo. DavDroid syncs to the normal Android Calendar Storage, thats why i see these Events also in your Widget. For Tasks, i use OpenTasks. With these App, i see the synced Tasks from DavDroid on Android.

I've been looking for something like this. It looks amazing compared to what I've found.

I'd pay for this.

The unused space when the widget is small is quite large though.

Been using it for a few days and couple of things I would like to request are:
a) An option to customize the colour / font for weekends. Here, I would also like to add that weekends are likely to vary based on region (in the middle east, it is Friday & Saturday) and therefore allow the user to choose the weekend. Also, some may just have one day as a weekend.
b) An option to save the settings so that it can be re-used.
c) Under General>Appearance>Text Size, why don't you just allow the user to increase it by whatever size they choose instead of forcing them to choose in multiples of 10?
d) The Day and date that is displayed on the widget, can you allow the user to customize it as in allow it to appear all on a single line as in:
Saturday, 8 July or
Saturday July 8, 2017
or in multiple lines, like
July 8, 2017
Saturday
Basically, give a user definable box where the user enters dddd, mmm dd, yyyy or whatever they choose.

Thanks
:)

you could add a 'Add New Reminder' button at the bottom, where the app would open a floating window rather than the application itself and take in the data as it should

Hi there great widget. I second the suggestions by Paparasee above, especially point c). I'd also like to see an option to eliminate the horizontal lines in the weeks views. Also, is it possible to get Google Reminders to show as they do in the Google Calendar widget? Thanks!
