Connect Google Calendar Privately

Available now, and read-only. Let Google Calendar events appear inside Logit so a real event can take a life area, a Life Ring, and a reflection — without Logit ever touching your calendar, and without anything becoming a journal entry on i

Your life is already scattered across a paper notebook, a camera roll, a calendar, a watch, your contacts and half-kept lists. Logit is where it lands. Your calendar is the easiest piece to bring across, because a calendar already knows where your hours went.

Connecting Google Calendar lets the events you actually lived show up inside Logit, where you can give each one a place in your life and reflect on it once it has happened. This page is the exact contract for that connection: what is read, what is never done, and how you leave.

This is the third of the three ways to get a day into Logit — the one that runs on its own. The other two are by hand and with Loggy.

📍 Where This Stands Today

Read-only is the whole design, not a first version. There is no later release where Logit starts writing to your calendar.

🎯 Use This When

• Your day already lives in Google Calendar and retyping it feels like homework.
• You want calendar events to be able to take a life area and the Life Ring they support.
• You want schedule context in planning and journaling without giving an app control of your calendar.

🔒 What Stays Private

The connection asks Google for read-only access only: the events you allow and your calendar list. Logit cannot create, edit, move, or delete anything in Google Calendar, and it does not write habits or reminders back. Calendar context stays private to you, like everything else in your journal, unless you deliberately share a reflection you wrote. If a permission request ever asks for more than read-only access, do not grant it — that is not Logit.

👀 What Is Imported

• Event basics from calendars you allow: title, time, the event's location when one is set, and which calendar the event came from. A location can reveal a sensitive place, so only connect calendars you are comfortable bringing into your private journal.
• Nothing becomes journal content automatically. A calendar event only becomes part of your private record when you act on it — give it a life area and ring, attach it to a goal, or reflect on it.

✅ One Thing To Do Now

Open Self → Settings → Bring Google Calendar into Logit, and read the consent copy before connecting.

How It Works

In short: connect once with read-only consent, then real events can land in your day. Choosing where each one belongs — and whether it deserves a reflection — stays your move.

Where A Placed Event Goes Next

Most reflection apps stop at the reflection. A calendar event that you have placed is useful precisely because it does not have to stop there:

• Notice something. Three weeks of evenings in the same life area is a pattern you can see rather than a feeling you half-suspect.
• Choose one step. Turn what you noticed into a goal, a task, or a habit in Act, tied to the same life area and Life Ring.
• Bring people in when it helps. Many goals come with a Circle — a room for the goal, and a room for your city — so the step is not carried alone.
• Reflect on what changed, and the loop starts again.

Nothing on this list happens automatically. Calendar context only ever makes the next step easier to see.

Disconnect And Deletion

• Disconnecting in Settings stops all future calendar reads immediately. You can also revoke Logit's access from your Google Account at any time; both ends of the connection respect it.
• Disconnecting does not delete anything you wrote. Journal events, life-area choices, and reflections you created from calendar context are your content and stay in Logit.
• Deleting your Logit account removes the stored calendar connection and its consent state along with the rest of your account data, following the same account-deletion guarantees as everything else.

🌿 Why This Matters

A balanced week is mostly made of things that were already on your calendar. Reading them — never rewriting them — keeps Logit a mirror for reflection instead of another tool that wants to manage you.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Is this available to me today?

Yes. The Google Calendar connection works now, wherever you use Logit. Apple Health workout import is available in the production App Store app on iPhone, and Health Connect workout import is available in the production Google Play app on Android. Workout import remains unavailable on the web.

Does an event become a journal entry by itself?

No. A calendar event appears as context you can act on. It only becomes part of your record when you give it a life area and a Life Ring, attach it to a goal, or write a reflection on it.

Can Logit change or delete my calendar events?

No. The connection is read-only by design. Logit never creates, edits, or deletes Google Calendar events, and it does not mirror habits back to your calendar.

Does connecting publish my schedule anywhere?

No. Calendar context is private to you. Nothing you do with a calendar event is visible to anyone unless you deliberately share a reflection you wrote.

What happens to my journal if I disconnect?

Everything you created stays. Disconnecting only stops future calendar reads; your journal events, ring choices, and reflections remain yours.

Which Google permissions does Logit ask for?

Read-only event access and your read-only calendar list — nothing else. You can review or revoke this at any time from your Google Account's third-party access settings.
