As there's no way to reply to reviews, I post my reply to Eric here. Regarding "a lot of devices created in HS4".
The number of devices per calendar is configurable, by default it's 5, but you can reduce the number if you want, even disable some unused calendars completely. So it's as many devices as you wish, just read the instructions.
BTW, I ported the plugin to HS4 (free upgrade) and will write new instructions for HS4 version.
The best calendar with the best home automation software ! Cnfiguration a little tricky with google and a lot of devices created in HS4 but the result is reallu convenient and easy to monitor from anywhere. I really love it. Eric
Once it was set-up properly, it worked perfectly.
It has proven to be a very handy plug-in, simplifying many of my event automations.
Great plugin and I've hardly used it. Trialed to see how well it could read some calendar events and delay / run events accordingly... such as set shades and alarm to raise / go off later if the kids don't have school. It does this perfectly!
Hello
We are very satisfied with the AK Google calendar plugin. It works very well, we mainly use it to create events starting from the calendar but it can also be used to create GC events form HS. We needed support on the forum and Alex Khassapov (alexbk66) was very quick to respond to our requests, we take this opportunity to thank him. Massimo-RenderCAD srl Italy
