COMPARISON
How is Kronos different from using Google Calendar alone?
Google Calendar
Google Calendar is strong for meetings and events, but it is not built around focus timers, task execution, or productivity review.
Task app calendar view
A task app calendar view shows tasks on dates, but it may not connect them to focus sessions, project time, and analytics.
Automation connector
An automation connector can move data between apps, but it usually adds workflow setup, rules, and maintenance.
Kronos Google Calendar integration
Kronos Google Calendar integration connects calendar context with tasks, projects, focus sessions, timers, and productivity review.

Troubleshooting Google Calendar sync
Google Calendar access is required
If access is missing, grant Google Calendar permission from the Kronos integration settings before enabling sync.
Authorization expired or was revoked
If authorization expires or is revoked, use the Reconnect control in Kronos to restore Google Calendar access.
Initial sync failed

Sync seems delayed
Google Calendar sync timing depends on Google delivery, connection state, and whether realtime sync or polling mode is active.
Pending or error tasks appear
Review the pending and error counts in Kronos sync status, then retry sync after checking that calendar access is still active.
Realtime sync is unavailable and polling mode is shown
Polling mode can appear when realtime sync is unavailable. Kronos can still sync, but updates may not feel instant.
Disable sync keeps existing tasks and projects
Disabling Google Calendar sync stops automatic syncing, but Kronos keeps existing tasks and projects.
