Please recommend an online calendar
I use "Week Calendar" for my phone and iPad, but I cannot find a similar calendar for my Mac that I like.

It needs to display multiple GMail calendars; as well as my exchange calendar.

To add - maybe I am looking at it wrong, but I was surprised that GMail's calendar would not give the option to display/edit multiple GMail calendars if you have the passwords.

Took the words out of my mouth: Google Calendar.

The owner of the calendar would have to give you the ability to make changes and manage sharing. It's under settings.

I use it on my iphone 7+ and on my laptop.

On the pc, on the left hand side, it gives you the ability to "Add a friend's calendar." Then you can click or unclick that calendar to display.

I use Chrome to look at my Google Calendar.

I use Outlook to connect to my GMail and Google Calendar only because I'm used to Outlook's look when I'm writing an email. But I also get notifications from Google Calendar through Outlook.

Whatever you do, do not enable Chrome to send you calendar notifications as it would slow down Chrome for you.

We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

Is what you're calling GMail Calendar the same as Google Calendar?

I use Google Calendar exclusively. I also use gmail but didn't know it had a separate calendar.

Why not just subscribe to the gmail calendars from the native Mac calendar application? I do that with a gmail calendar for both me and my wife. We can both see each other’s events(different colors) and we avoid calendar conflicts.

PS: I even do this with our iPhones.

Good question. I have been using the native calendar on the Mac, but it is just not user friendly. I want to be able to just click the screen and start typing; along with a few other things.
