Google Calendar
LiveGoogle Workspace
Connecting Google Calendar lets your companion see your schedule and, if you allow it, create and manage events for you. Your events also power the Calendar app and your daily briefing inside BlinkLife.
Connecting Google Calendar
Section titled “Connecting Google Calendar”- Go to Settings → Connections and find the Google Calendar card.
- Click Connect and read the short note about what access you’re granting.
- Approve the permissions on Google’s sign-in screen.
- You’re returned to BlinkLife and the Permissions & Settings panel opens automatically.
Permissions and what they mean for you
Section titled “Permissions and what they mean for you”Each permission is an independent on/off switch.
| Permission | Default | What it means for you |
|---|---|---|
| View Events | On | Your companion can list and read your events — so it can answer “what’s on tomorrow?” and add events to your briefing. This is read-only. |
| Create & Edit Events | Off | Your companion can schedule new events and change existing ones. Off by default so it can’t alter your calendar until you allow it. |
| Delete Events | Off | Your companion can remove events from your calendar. |
Calendar autonomy mode
Section titled “Calendar autonomy mode”This decides how your companion handles changes to your calendar. It only applies once you’ve allowed Create & Edit or Delete.
- Confirm First (default) — your companion asks before creating, changing, or removing any event.
- Full Auto — your companion manages your calendar on its own, without asking.
Using your calendar in BlinkLife
Section titled “Using your calendar in BlinkLife”Once connected, you can ask your companion things like:
“Check my schedule for tomorrow” “Block 2–3 PM on Friday for deep work”
For the in-app Calendar views (Today / Week / Month) and meeting briefs, see the Calendar feature guide.
Disconnecting
Section titled “Disconnecting”Open the Google Calendar card in Settings → Connections and click Disconnect. Your companion will no longer see or change your events.
