Google Calendar™ on new Tab Extension

This extension replaces the default new tab page with a customized Google Calendar page. You can view various calendar views, such as day, week, month, year, or agenda. Moreover, you have the flexibility to set a custom URL for the new page, which can even point to a different calendar web application. The extension directs the new tab to the specified URL, and that's it.

Key Features:
1. Substitute the new tab with an external service of your choice.
2. Open the external service with a single click next to your current tab (using the action button).
3. Access common calendar views (day, week, month, year, or agenda) via a right-click context menu.
4. Access an account selector, allowing you to choose the logged-in account for displaying the calendar.
5. You can configure different pages for new tab and toolbar button click

Legal Disclaimer:
This extension is an open-source project that exclusively opens the official Google Calendar web application in a new tab. It is not affiliated with Google or the Google Calendar team in any way. Furthermore, this extension cannot access or modify your calendar or any other data.

Eva Raud (ID: 00000088a023683b) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/15/2023 Very simple and usefull! Right what I was searching for. Thanks

Peter Kirk (ID: 000000a6b72c741c) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 10/15/2022 I like the the functionality and simplicity, also that I can still access my Google profiles and apps from their regular positions. The only thing I've found is that my typical flow when opening a new tab is to immediately type a new URL, as the regular function would have the address bar selected. When I tried to do this with your plugin, the calendar is selected, so my typing triggers all sorts of things. If possible I'd love to have that default functionality back.

Mayne Fernández (ID: 000000f084aa5c6b) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 01/12/2022 The extension itself is beautiful and it's very easy to use. It needs to virtually no setup after installation. However, I find that it's kind of slow in loading.

Stephen Miklas (ID: 000000a774c06bea) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/30/2021 It simply works.

Atharva Shukla (ID: 000000816c9792bc) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/17/2021 Love the extension. Suggestion to make it more useful: Often I need to open something quickly in a new tab. For that I use the key command for the new tab (CMD + T on Mac) and then I press CMD + L to focus on the URL bar. I then proceed to type the url. However, the cursor is de-focussed away from the URL bar when the calendar is loaded. Only after a latency (of ~0.5 seconds) can I press CMD + L again to type the url. Solving this small inefficiency would be great.
