I am lost without my lists and my calendars.
Google Calendar has saved my life more times than I can begin to count.
I add absolutely everything there: my bills, birthdays, doctors appointments and even grocery lists.
you better stay on top of everything as much as I do.
you could choose to have an email sent to you or a have a pop-up reminder on your desktop.
Sadly, Google ended SMS text alerts at the beginning of 2019.
That option was valuable to me, but is no longer available.
For privacy reasons, my screenshots for this post will obviously not be from my real calendar.
Make a choice between the two and then the amount of time before that you need your reminder.
you could decide between minutes, hours, days and even weeks.
If this is something important, it’s possible for you to set multiple reminders.
For instance, I have an event next month that I have reminders set every few days for.
How to Change Default Notifications in Google Calendar via Full Calendar
Open up the mainCalendar page.
Now, lets scroll down toEvent Notifications.
This is where you will set the general notifications for each and every calendar event you set up.
Obviously, you could use my above method to add or change any notifications for individual things.
Keep in mind this will be forALLevents, as I mentioned, so dont go overboard here.
In this case, I just turn this feature off altogether temporarily.
Scroll down toEvent prefs.Here, youll see a few different options.
tap the drop-down arrow next toNotifications.
snag the box next toOffand the desktop notifications will stop until you toggle the setting back on.
