How to Connect
Google Calendar is currently available as a supported, read-only calendar source. Freshness varies with provider and system timing after the initial connection.

Google shows the exact permissions requested on the consent screen. We only request read-only access to your calendars.
Read-Only Integration
ComingUp Today is designed as a read-only integration with Google Calendar. This design choice exists because shared calendars often break down once multiple people are editing events, especially in families and small groups. We've written more about why that happens and what actually helps in Why Shared Calendars Break Down for Families. We read your calendar events to display them in a unified view, but we never create, modify, or delete events in your Google Calendar. Your source calendars remain unchanged. For teams or families that need visibility without edit access, learn more in our shared calendar visibility setup.
This read-only boundary applies to connected Google Calendar events. Events created in ComingUp Today remain editable in the app and are not written back to Google Calendar. Continue to manage Google events in Google Calendar while ComingUp Today shows them alongside your own ComingUp events and other selected calendars. We explore the coordination problems this shared view helps with in Every Problem Is a Communication Problem.
