OMG your explaination is so clear and efficient. I didn't know where to start, and have been watching a few youtube videos since yesterday, yours is the best! Thank you for taking the time to share this. Et voila, thanks from Paris!
Aw that really means a lot to me! I'm so glad it was helpful :) Bonjour Paris , merci beaucoup d'avoir regardé (forgive me I haven't studied french in a while)!
I had almost given up on planning ,due to all the complex videos by other popular channels. I can't thankyou Enough, Your simple & crisp explanation of the Calendar is the best so far. Thankyou so much.
I just started my freshman year of college the other day. I followed your video and set my calendar up with you and it is so helpful! I added a separate calendar for due dates personally!
That's so great! I'm glad I could help :) Ah do dates on a seperate calendar is a good idea! (Hopefully it's always visible so you don't miss anything!)
Thank you! This was a very usefull guide for using google calendar!! I just started my second semester in university and I really wanted to start using google calendar but i had no idea where to start, so thank you very much, i'm all set up now!
THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!! I AM NEW TO TECHNOLOGY. I've been contemplating on purchasing a new Planner on Amazon! But after watching this video, I realize I can do it all on my computer and have it one place! This WAS VERY HELPFUL!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Just got started out yesterday, and I needed this very much to know how to add an event to a specific calendar. I couldn't do that before, but it was that small feature which made a huge difference in my calendar experience. Thank you❤
Wow! Sorry I never replied Leesa. I love google calendar - as we can see haha. I'm doing well (on break now so cannot complain!) so technically week 0 hehe. Hope you are doing well!
@@EmmaB_MD No worries Emma. I hope you enjoy the well deserved break and do something nice for yourself. I am well thanks, 1 more exam to go and understand those feels from your last video, but almost there..
This video was incredibly helpful to get myself even MORE organized with Google Calendar :) Thank you so much for the helpful advice! Request: I'm very new to using Todoist and you mentioned it in this video, it would be amazing to get a tutorial on your use of that application as well! Once again, thank you so much for you videos!
I am so glad it was helpful! Love getting more and more organised. I'm glad you've started ToDoistt and I'm hoping to get that video up ASAP. I had it all planned but 2020 and online learning really messed with my Day to day habits and structure which is what I usually used it for. The new plan is to set it up for the new year and film that and share it (explaining as I go like in this video) and that way we can all start 2021 with it in place! I hope you'll still watch it when it comes out!
Not sure if you're still working on setting up your Todoist but I've got the video up now! ruclips.net/video/CrIiNDO95UU/видео.html It'll be live in a couple days, I hope it helps!
I'm so glad it helped! Oo with online school I sometimes went as far as including the zoom links IN the calendar boy did that feel good - one click and I was in class. (until the links started changing every week 0_0)
Massive Update I (somehow) just discovered - ToDoist now links with Google Calendar and it is a game changer! ... and I made a video on it! ruclips.net/video/96ydrnBRPkY/видео.html Other links: My video on why I love ToDoIst ruclips.net/video/CrIiNDO95UU/видео.html How to sync the two - todoist.com/help/articles/use-google-calendar-with-todoist And I can confirm the email account your ToDoist is created with does not have to be the same as your google calendar - I am GIDDY with excitement.
I've been doing something similar now for a long time. You one of the 1st though to go into details about using multiple calendars. I've done that but the hidden ones we'll that was a game changer. Going now to my calendar to separate a few things into new calendars lol. BTW using a calendar events for everything allows you to put notes in the description box. The notes come in handy for all kinds 9f things in I have a calendar I named Calls for all the calls with companies and such, the description box is where I put notes on the calls in who I talked to, reason for the call, and what the person said or did.
Yes! I found multiple calendars a game changer too that's why I had to share! and I 100% agree use the description box location etc to your advantage to help you stay organised!
Damn, that was cool. I’ve been piling everything into one calendar and wondering what the blue bar was. Definitely considering the hidden calendar for gym open hours and office hours.
@@EmmaB_MD Thanks for the reply! Just getting into the habit of creating a formal weekly schedule (I'm in a far easier degree), and initially having hiccups sticking to it- What spurred you to start? was it out of necessity? Or a mystical capacity to get excited to complete coursework on your own?
I've always been a hyper diligent planner... My Mom had a colour coded fridge calendar for us as kids... so I think it started there haha 😂 so not a unique talent in anyway just was born into a Type A family and now I find I'm actually MORE stressed if I don't plan things out! In terms of sticking to course work... Discipline trumps motivation every time. So you have to find a way to be consistent do a little every day and then increase that "little" slowly. Often in uni we get course work that doesn't necessarily spark any interest so we will never be MOTIVATED to do it, but if we are disciplined we will get it done whether we have an urge to or not. That being said still also be disciplined about time for yourself - you'll never be interested in work if you're burnt out and exhausted. Pretty general advice but I hope it helps!
Definitely, it's all a bit on hold right now since we're not on campus but I'll add it to the list - will be more fun if I can talk about it and show it too!
I was looking for this kind of video since I started to look for some info about organization in a calendar. Thank you so much for sharing. New subscriber from Ecuador

*****Permission to curse.****** This is the only fucking video that has actually helped me. after watching dozens of expert google calendar videos by centenaries that have done nothing for me but confuse the shit out of me, this one finally comes along. Thank you Emma, I like more than a friend. FUCK!
Thank you so much for this! I’m starting college in February and I’m having a hard time choosing a calendar. This helped so much! Quick question, do you use a school email or private one?
I'm so glad that the video helps! I use my school video - especially with online learning because some Zoom links would autopopulate in my calendar which was really handy! But a private gmail account would work just as well and you'd keep it even after you graduate!
Omg thank you so much for this video I do exactly what you do apart from the having a different calendar for my to do list I use the google one I have do much responsibility because I am carer myself and I have to have 5 other people's calendar so I can keep up with all the appointments Everyone says how to I do it? Thanks to Google calendar I can I have learnt a few things from your video though and I wanna thank you so much To separate my social calendar and my appointments calendar So thank you so much hun again Shout out from Melbourne Definitely subscribing to you 💜😊
Hi Lorraine! Thank you so much for subscribing I hope I can come up with some more creative organising tips for you - I'm a bit of a calendar nerd ;P Sounds like you have a lot of calendars and planning on the go - I'm impressed! I hope my tips have helped :)
Hi Emma, great video. 👌I have a question on meeting notes in google cal, which I believe was added quite recently. I have a few different calendars and in some of them it comes up as an option, but in most of them not. My main one is part of a corporate account, and my colleagues get it, but not me. I have tried to google it but didn't get any hits, suppose since it is rather new and questions were not yet gathered... any insight would be greatly appreciated🙏
Thanks for the useful ideas. I recently used Google Calendar from the Apple calendar. Its just easier to access it between different platforms. I don’t find the latest craze of digital planners too appealing when it comes to functionality, although they are attractive design wise. Do u use a tablet as well? The features I think on an App is not full.
Yeah! I was never a huge fan of the apple calendar (mostly because I started using google calendar before I had a macbook) so I've always just deleted the app and downloaded google 😅 I also like how it now can predict from my emails and automatically add meetings etc in. I do have an iPad that I use mostly like a laptop that's lighter to take to placement. I just use the google cal app there too. I agree - I've never been FULLY into digital planners. I just don't see how they are as portable from device to device. I did miss out on being able to make things as *pretty* as they could be in a digital planner but then I discovered I you can customise the colours of google calendar ... ruclips.net/video/rlwAoU83TO0/видео.html And now all my complaints have been solved!
In the end when you said dont share your to-do calendar bc it would make look busy all the time, does that mean that you would mark your to-do calendar as free and not busy? Is there another way to have the to-do be busy but not shown to others? Great video by the way!
I just never actually "share it" so others looking to schedule with me shouldn't see it at all - so I only send invites for people to see school/work and maybe life calendars (either in full or just as "busy) my Todo calendar just stays with me so people are still able to schedule meetings even if there is a ToDo Item there. BUT if you did share it you could have the setting to mark it as "free" and not busy you're absolutely right! Hope that explanation worked! It's so much easier to show not tell, but hope I'm helping!
To my knowledge nope, it's just a student gmail account so we have access to the g-suite. But you can make a gmail account that isn't attached to an institution if you wanted!
this was very helpful for class schedule. What I am trying to do is have my son enter his assignments in his google calendar while he is in class and put them in with a due date. I am suprised that Google has never been able to make a good agenda feature for this. Do you have any tips?
Hey! Yeah there's a lot of different ways to manage it I guess. Personally I put the due dates in as little red events and on my ToDoIst (which is another app - I have a couple videos on it ruclips.net/video/CrIiNDO95UU/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/96ydrnBRPkY/видео.html). But Google Does have Google Tasks - which is usually on the right hand side of google calendar if you're on the desktop site. It allows you to list each assignment as a task and give it a due date, you can even have "sub tasks" so if an assignment has checkpoints to meet each could be a sub task. I haven't used Google Tasks much because I like ToDoIst so much but it is an option! Hope that helps!
Excuse me, not about Gcalendar..Lol..I just noticed you have such a beautiful facial features. Hmm, that’s odd, I rarely compliment anyone, but yours definitely attractive in a way that it distracts me from listening to the main content of the video. Hahaha
There's a couple layers to notifications.... so within the webpage you can set what you would like to receive notifications for (like which calendars or how long before an event etc) BUT you will still need to allow "push notifications" on your phone through your phones settings! I've found most of the time the default is to allow notifications from the app on your phone - but always good to double check!
I agree Google tasks are great but I've always just gravitated to a manual list and enjoy crossing things off. My inclination to to do lists is more of a choice based of of feeling than it is a convenient thing 😂 and I use ToDoIst more so for habit tracking and reminders! It's not the MOST streamlined system but it works for me!
I do! I have used ToDoIst - I have a video about how I use it and sync with my Google Calendar here ruclips.net/video/CrIiNDO95UU/видео.html Hope it helps! I've also used the apple reminders app before and Google has an inbuilt To-Do sort of tracker that I've dabbled with but never jumped fully into.
I’ll really appreciate it if you replied this message cause I’m so frustrated with this app. The part where you changed from Test Demo to School (at 4:32), for mine there’s no drop down menu for me to choose the calendar I want. So it’s stuck on the first calendar, like for yours that’s test demo. Please help me, if anyone also has an idea on how to fix this please let me know. Thank you.
When you first make a google calendar it only populates the first calendar (usually with the title of your name - ie. Test Demo) so when you start adding events it will only allow you to add to that calendar. The first step is to add a new calendar (like the School calendar). Starting at 2:33 I believe I start to explain this but I'll try to do so in text here. At 2:33 a pink circle will circle what I'm talking about in the bottom left on the screen. You should see a list of the calendars you have access to. In my video it is "My calendars: Test Demo, Birthdays, Reminders, Task" then a second list "Other calendars". Next to Other Calendars you will see a + sign. Click that and then select Create new calendar. Then you can title it whatever you are looking for (such as School) and it will appear in your drop down after that :). I hope that makes sense!
I absolutely need this video but I don't know why my google calendar doesn't work like this. I can't create new calendars and it automatically connects to all my gmail emails which I hate. Anyone has any tips?
my calendar will be full of watch Netflix and crying myself to sleep can’t wait to set it up 🤓
may I suggest using tomato red for Netflix and blue for tears? 😂 we've all been there! Hope this semester/year/month goes better for you!

Knowing that someone might have scheduled reading and responding to comments as a priority,

Thanks Emma for the video. It was very informative.
I'm glad it was helpful!
Helped me a lot! Thank you!
So glad to hear that!
Omg thank you so much for this video
I do exactly what you do apart from the having a different calendar for my to do list

I have do much responsibility because I am carer myself and I have to have 5 other people's calendar so I can keep up with all the appointments
Everyone says how to I do it?

thx! that really helps XD
Just about what I needed.
Hi Emma, great video. 👌I have a question on meeting notes in google cal, which I believe was added quite recently. I have a few different calendars and in some of them it comes up as an option, but in most of them not. My main one is part of a corporate account, and my colleagues get it, but not me. I have tried to google it but didn't get any hits, suppose since it is rather new and questions were not yet gathered... any insight would be greatly appreciated🙏
Thanks mam its really helpfull 😊
Thank you, you're a lifesaver 🥺❤
Aw I'm so glad it helped!
Thanks for the useful ideas. I recently used Google Calendar from the Apple calendar. Its just easier to access it between different platforms. I don’t find the latest craze of digital planners too appealing when it comes to functionality, although they are attractive design wise. Do u use a tablet as well? The features I think on an App is not full.
Yeah! I was never a huge fan of the apple calendar (mostly because I started using google calendar before I had a macbook) so I've always just deleted the app and downloaded google 😅 I also like how it now can predict from my emails and automatically add meetings etc in.
I do have an iPad that I use mostly like a laptop that's lighter to take to placement. I just use the google cal app there too.
I agree - I've never been FULLY into digital planners. I just don't see how they are as portable from device to device. I did miss out on being able to make things as *pretty* as they could be in a digital planner but then I discovered I you can customise the colours of google calendar ... ruclips.net/video/rlwAoU83TO0/видео.html
And now all my complaints have been solved!
Thanks a lot, Emma 😀😀
Thank you so much, life saver
I'm so glad it helped! I'm a bit of an organisational nerd so happy to share my tips and tricks!
In the end when you said dont share your to-do calendar bc it would make look busy all the time, does that mean that you would mark your to-do calendar as free and not busy? Is there another way to have the to-do be busy but not shown to others? Great video by the way!
I just never actually "share it" so others looking to schedule with me shouldn't see it at all - so I only send invites for people to see school/work and maybe life calendars (either in full or just as "busy) my Todo calendar just stays with me so people are still able to schedule meetings even if there is a ToDo Item there.
BUT if you did share it you could have the setting to mark it as "free" and not busy you're absolutely right!
Hope that explanation worked! It's so much easier to show not tell, but hope I'm helping!
Omg you are soo cute .And your hairs 😍😍😍
Thank you !!
nice, thanks
How to sync desktop gcal with phone
Thank you so much Emma
You are so welcome! I hope it was helpful :)
Can admin track other people locations and web browsing history?
To my knowledge nope, it's just a student gmail account so we have access to the g-suite. But you can make a gmail account that isn't attached to an institution if you wanted!
Well done!
Thank you!
I use it too, very effevtive
Glad google calendar works for you!
this was very helpful for class schedule. What I am trying to do is have my son enter his assignments in his google calendar while he is in class and put them in with a due date. I am suprised that Google has never been able to make a good agenda feature for this. Do you have any tips?
Hey! Yeah there's a lot of different ways to manage it I guess. Personally I put the due dates in as little red events and on my ToDoIst (which is another app - I have a couple videos on it ruclips.net/video/CrIiNDO95UU/видео.html and ruclips.net/video/96ydrnBRPkY/видео.html).
But Google Does have Google Tasks - which is usually on the right hand side of google calendar if you're on the desktop site. It allows you to list each assignment as a task and give it a due date, you can even have "sub tasks" so if an assignment has checkpoints to meet each could be a sub task. I haven't used Google Tasks much because I like ToDoIst so much but it is an option!
Hope that helps!
Really cool hair 😄
thanks
Excuse me, not about Gcalendar..Lol..I just noticed you have such a beautiful facial features. Hmm, that’s odd, I rarely compliment anyone, but yours definitely attractive in a way that it distracts me from listening to the main content of the video. Hahaha
Does events take up my storage?
When you turn on notifications from your computer does it automatically do that on your phone as well?
There's a couple layers to notifications.... so within the webpage you can set what you would like to receive notifications for (like which calendars or how long before an event etc) BUT you will still need to allow "push notifications" on your phone through your phones settings!
I've found most of the time the default is to allow notifications from the app on your phone - but always good to double check!
Just doing my semester-ly return so I can relearn how to use google calendar for the upcoming semester lol
how do you get the time to be displayed on the left vertically down the page? where it says GMT?
But why do you do manualy "to do list" if you could just set a google tasks? It looks almost the same, but it is simlplier to create.
I agree Google tasks are great but I've always just gravitated to a manual list and enjoy crossing things off. My inclination to to do lists is more of a choice based of of feeling than it is a convenient thing 😂 and I use ToDoIst more so for habit tracking and reminders! It's not the MOST streamlined system but it works for me!
9:00 comes the good stuff
Do you ever use a separate to-do app?
I do! I have used ToDoIst - I have a video about how I use it and sync with my Google Calendar here ruclips.net/video/CrIiNDO95UU/видео.html Hope it helps!
I've also used the apple reminders app before and Google has an inbuilt To-Do sort of tracker that I've dabbled with but never jumped fully into.
@@EmmaB_MD thank you so much!!
I’ll really appreciate it if you replied this message cause I’m so frustrated with this app. The part where you changed from Test Demo to School (at 4:32), for mine there’s no drop down menu for me to choose the calendar I want. So it’s stuck on the first calendar, like for yours that’s test demo. Please help me, if anyone also has an idea on how to fix this please let me know. Thank you.
When you first make a google calendar it only populates the first calendar (usually with the title of your name - ie. Test Demo) so when you start adding events it will only allow you to add to that calendar. The first step is to add a new calendar (like the School calendar). Starting at 2:33 I believe I start to explain this but I'll try to do so in text here. At 2:33 a pink circle will circle what I'm talking about in the bottom left on the screen. You should see a list of the calendars you have access to. In my video it is "My calendars: Test Demo, Birthdays, Reminders, Task" then a second list "Other calendars". Next to Other Calendars you will see a + sign. Click that and then select Create new calendar. Then you can title it whatever you are looking for (such as School) and it will appear in your drop down after that :). I hope that makes sense!
@@EmmaB_MD it did make sense, thanks alot
@@asantewaa529 Great! I'm glad!
I absolutely need this video but I don't know why my google calendar doesn't work like this. I can't create new calendars and it automatically connects to all my gmail emails which I hate. Anyone has any tips?
