User reviews

Users appreciate Brave Talk for Calendars for its ease of use, seamless Google Calendar integration, reliability, and time-saving features like direct meeting link insertion. However, recurring meetings, especially in ProtonMail calendars, cause participant joining issues. Some users experience glitches on secondary monitors, and there is criticism regarding limited support beyond Gmail and reliance on Google services despite Brave's privacy stance.

Pros

Easy to use and simplifies scheduling meetings.
Integrates well with Google Calendar and other calendar services.
Reliable and fast performance with little lag.
Helps save time by allowing direct insertion of meeting links into calendar invites.
Supports unlimited meetings, useful for scheduling candidate interviews and other calls.

Cons

Recurring meetings with ProtonMail and Brave Talk have participant join issues, showing 'meeting is full' error.
Limited compatibility reported, especially lack of integration with ProtonMail compared to Gmail.
Glitches occur when used on a secondary monitor for some users.
Requires Google integration, which some users see as contrary to privacy goals of Brave.

Recent reviews

This has been working well for the most part. For the developer: Recently Brave Talk calls set up on recurring calendar events in Proton have only allowed me, the organizer to join. When the other participant of the calendar meeting tries joining they receive a message that "the meeting is full". It is only me in the call when they receive that message so it isn't full, I'd expect up to 3 more people to join. The other participants were gmail users, we all use macbooks. I use Brave and they use Chrome. Only I have the Brave Talk extension.

This integration should work no only with Gmail, but also and more importantly on Protonmail... Brave is supposed to support clients' privacy and everything, but I find it ironic that the only way to program a Brave Talk session is by using Google, the opposite of clients' privacy. Please, make it compatible with Protonmail!
