It works on the web if you leave the original color name in the left column and the new name in the right column. It would be 5 stars if it also worked to change the names on my google calendar phone app but I cannot seem to do that.

Sarah Lesselbaum, 2023-07-20I've been very happy with this since we installed it. But as the organization has grown, I now need a way to add new colors and then new labels to those colors. It seems like this is limited to the "set pack" of colors that come with the extension. Is there a way to add more?

Brendan Mulvaney, 2023-07-08It does work but you must close Chrome. Sort of like the old fashioned reboot after install. It is quite lovely thereafter. A simple instruction would help there ratings, it is a shame because it is a very nice feature that should have been built in. I hope Google just buys them out for millions 🌟
