Can’t remember all those important events and meetings lined up for the day? We know the feeling. We also know that the first thing you probably do to solve this is create an event or set a reminder on Google Calendar.

But, ‘I like switching between multiple tabs’ said no one ever!

So, here’s the good news.

With our latest deep integration with Google Calendar, you can manage pretty much your entire calendar from within the app — from viewing your calendar to creating events and much more.

How, you ask?

First, authenticate your Google Calendar with Flock

Go to the Flock Appstore, install the app, and authenticate your Google Calendar to seamlessly integrate the app with Flock. Let’s show you how.
