Verdict: Is Notion Calendar for Me?

Notion Calendar, like Cron before, is a perfect lightweight calendar app.

Combining scheduling, beautiful design and deeper Notion integrations with pages and databases now makes it the perfect calendar companion to Notion, but even as solo users who want to manage their calendar experience, this is a standalone calendar app that rocks. The design, function and management is easy and just works.

For someone looking for a balance between free, function & design without the more advanced features you'll see in apps like Vimcal, Rise & Mayday, this is it.

Is Cron Calendar dead?

Cron Calendar's logo and branding sunset, but largely most things are the same about Notion Calendar than was with Cron. The founder is now head of Notion Calendar too.
