User reviews

Hi! I am excited about this extension, but I cannot figure out why it's not working for me. I downloaded it, added my colors, but they are not showing up on my events. What am I doing wrong?

Katelyn Smith, 2025-01-13

Love it in the PC format, but the colors don't work on the Calendar app on the pixel, so it is useless for me now. I spend half my time on the calendar app on the phone.

I love being able to set my own colors, but this extension is making my calendar load incredibly slow.
