What is Google Calendar Event Checker?

Google Calendar Event Checker is a adblocker extension for chrome. it's a free extension , it has 4,000+ active users since released its first version, it earns an average rating of 4.74 from 23 rated user, last update is 684 days ago.

What’s new in version 1.6.3?

                This extension is simple and does only one thing: marks an event's title in Google Calendar as completed (or canceled).

There are few options to mark it:
- s̶t̶r̶i̶k̶e̶t̶h̶r̶o̶u̶g̶h̶ effect
- ✅  emoji in the beginning (to indicate event as completed)
- ❌  emoji in the beginning (to indicate event as canceled)

Everything is configurable in the extension Options.

Also one warning for using strikethrough effect: make sure to use option "Add origin title to the description" in order to be able to find an event in search later. The nature of strikethrough effect changes event title.

If you're having any issues and the extension doesn't work:
- re-install the extension to make sure that you're using the latest version
- enable error reporting in Options page
- make sure that your ad blocking extensions (adblock, ghostery), if any, don't block "Sentry" (error reporting service)
- try to use extension as usual: go to an event page and click the button, if it's there

Doing these steps should generate and send error logs which could help me to debug the issue.

Works exactly as expected. Thank you for this extension! What would make this A+ perfect for me is if this also contained a setting to change the color coding of the event. E.g., I like to change my completed events/tasks to gray.

It was working fine for the past two weeks. Today suddenly the check mark has disappeared. :( (Update: It's fixed now!)

This is a great idea, but I wish there were more aesthetic options, like a checkmark emoji without the bright green box. The box can be confusing or distracting if you already use emojis on your calendar, e.g., to indicate different types of events so you can tell them apart quickly. It's also not ideal if you're aiming to keep your calendar's color scheme subtle and calm. I may use it in the future, but it's not quite what I need right now.
