I like Cron, I really do. But I have to be honest, sometimes I resort to the good ol' Google Calendar, mostly because of sync issues or speed. Cron on mobile tends to freeze on me a lot when I try to add new events. Desktop version works great, but sometimes has issues where an event has been canceled but it still showing up in there (even though it doesn't in G Cal). Regardless, it's the best looking calendar I've tried. And I've tried plenty.

Love that the whole calendar can be accessed with your keyboard. Love its attention to detail and the small use cases it provides viz. 1. Sharing Availability with anyone especially in any timezone. Would love this in the iOS app. 2. Joining a video meeting in a key stroke.. 3. iOS widget view is just perfect. 4. Quick view of your teammates calendar

I started using Cron a year ago (Thanks to Golden Kitty Awards invitations!), and it's completely changed how I use my calendar. Love it, especially for someone who deals with several timezones daily. The quick access to meetings and the snippets to invite someone to schedule a meeting are great additions.

Things I love about Cron: -- Actionable cal alerts with like, a “Join Meet” button (that always take me to the correct Google account somehow) -- Shows me how long until my next meeting in my toolbar. Click it to see all meetings for the day real fast. -- Built for Google so nice integrations to auto-add Google Meet links, etc. -- It also automatically shows you other org people’s schedules when trying to add them to a cal invite, so you can see availability

Great app for managing your calendars. As someone who organises his day via Notion and Google Calendar this was a no-brainer, and I was amazed when Notion acquired them! My favourite two features: - Being able to expand the start of the event without opening it. Such a simple feature and most calendar apps don't allow that. - Menu bar app that shows when the next event starts and allows you to join the meeting via 1 click.

Love the product so far. Super easy to use, responsive, and minimalistic. Sharing availability is super simple, but gives the user a lot of control of what they share with others (vs. being at the mercy of the openness of your calendar). Would love to be able to add custom conferencing details (phone number) / templated descriptions for calls, but that's a fairly unique ask.

It's already a great product. Not reinventing the wheel but adding a bunch of quality of live improvements compared to existing calendar apps. So I prefer using cron. As it's still in beta it only supports google calendar, be aware of that. It's okay for now but support for iCloud Calendars is quite essential for me in the long run. But thats just a matter of time! :)

Been using this for over a year now and Cron works as a brilliant calendar app on top of Google Calendar system. Lots of add-on functionality that makes organizing and scheduling a breeze. Especially useful if you have multiple Google Cal accounts and want an easy solution to work between multiple calendars. Love this product but waiting for Android though!

Beautifully designed and incredibly intuitive. Cron turns calendar management into something that feels fast, fluid, and focused. The dark mode is sleek, and the multi-account handling is seamless. This is one of the few productivity tools that actually reduces friction instead of adding more.

Cron does not offer anything that's dramatically different from the others, it's in the little things that it does really well. Quick shortcut commands, handy menu bar functionality, and simple UI. Cron makes doing the annoying things like joining virtual meetings and adding multiple calendars really easy.

My team and I use Cron Calendar every morning to align our schedules. I really like how clean the interface feels. It's helped reduce the back-and-forth with meeting coordination. Personally, I use it to block deep work sessions and it’s been a huge productivity boost.

I love Cron, I've been using it for months now and can't get enough of it. It saves me a lot of time thanks to the shortcuts and the integration of Notion and Google Meet. The only thing I'm waiting for is to be able to add more Calendar accounts.

I love Cron and have since it came out. I am actually pleased that they will be joining Notion and I am really looking forward to seeing what Notion does with it. Cron is probably the app most suited to replacing Sunrise (missing quite a few features, but the design and intent is in the right direction.) Tools like Sunsama, Motion, Akiflow each had the potential to fill the Sunrise void but each of those is excessively priced and not as user friendly as Sunrise was. Maybe Notion will make Cron the one.
