Google announces to support Google Calendar offline only for workspace users
By MYBRANDBOOK
Google Calendar has offered offline support for desktop users once again. The offline feature was rolled back when Google released a new UI for the Calendar app in 2018. Users will now be able to see their Google Calendar from four weeks prior or any time in the future, by day, week, or month offline when accessed through a computer. With the relaunch, the tech giant aims to make Google Calendar more useful, particularly when users are offline or have unreliable Internet connections. But the support is limited to Google workspace customers for now.
The offline Calendar feature will be available on all tiers including Google Workspace Essentials, Business Starter, Business Standard, Business Plus, Enterprise Essentials, Enterprise Standard, and Enterprise Plus, as well as G Suite Basic, Business, Education, Enterprise for Education, and non-profits customers.
Google announced the relaunch of Calendar offline support through a blog post. To use Google Calendar offline on desktop, users will have to open the Google Calendar in a Google Chrome browser window. In the top right, click on Settings> under General, click offline > select Turn on offline calendar > click on Reload now.
Once this is done, Google Calendar will be synced for offline use. As soon as the sync is complete, your calendar's status will show ‘Ready for offline'. And when users are using the Google Calendar offline, a notice appears that reads: “It looks like you're offline. Some actions might not work”.
According to the Google Calendar support page, users won't be able to create or edit events, e-mail guests, and access tasks or reminders while using the Google Calendar offline. It is also worth noting that the offline support for Google Calendar will be cleared if users clear their computer's cached images and files. Users will have to go to settings and turn on the Google Calendar offline option again.
The feature will be ‘on' by default. But if users’ account has an administrator, they will have to enable it on their Google Admin console first for them to use it. Google says that the feature for end users will start rolling out from January 25.
