Quick tip of the day

Video meetings are practically unavoidable — and missing a call is just as bad as not attending an in-person meeting. Since they’re virtual, though, they’re easy to forget. Those days are over with this secret setting: the Google Calendar daily agenda.

This super handy feature is turned off by default. Just follow these steps to turn it on:

  • First, open Google Calendar. Select the calendar you want to receive notifications for on the left-hand side. Click the three vertical dots.
  • Next, select Settings and sharing. Scroll down to the “Other notifications” section.
  • Notice the Daily agenda feature. By default, it’s set to None.
  • Click None to open a drop-down menu. Here you’ll see another option: Email. Select it to turn on the daily agenda emails.

✔️ Just like that, Google Calendar will send you daily agenda task lists at 5 a.m. While you’re fiddling in your settings, try these buried Gmail tips and tricks.
