The 3 Best Google Calendar Chrome Extensions for Work in 2023

Google has a reputation for not building features that are quite basic. This is especially true for Google Calendar where I find it somewhat lacking when using it for work. To make it perform for my workflows, I did some extensive testing on the extensions out in the market and here are the 3 best Google Calendar Chrome Extensions that I use for work in 2023.

I use these extensions on a daily basis and they have helped me increase my productivity drastically!

Meeting Dolphin - Tagging and search

Not to just toot my own horn, but the best thing about Meeting Dolphin’s extension is that it’s designed to enhance and integrate with Google Calendar. It’s a combination of popular extensions like “Tags for Google Calendar”, “Hide Mornings” and much more. The tagging feature makes it easy to keep track of your meetings and tasks, while the search and analytics compliments it and make the tags doubly useful.

Checker Plus - Calendar notifications

Ever work too deeply and forget about your meetings? I have and I find the default Google Calendar notification to bit obtuse. Even with the Desktop notification enabled, I sometimes still end up missing it. The Checker Plus has a different take in that it creates a very intrusive popup and an especially annoying sound. This makes sure that I get ready for my meeting.

Clockify - Timing tasks

Apart from just meetings, I use Google Calendar to create and plan out tasks. With the Clockify extension, I can easily start the timer and monitor how much time I am spending on a task. This helps me be always on top of my work. There are additional timesheeting capabilities which would be crucial if you are working as a freelancer that needs to log time.
