I use Nexus 7, stock ROM. The built in extension shows the calendar. This extension does NOT show anything, and yes I made sure all calendar are selected for showing.

This is a great extension to DashClock and better than the default, unfortunately a few bugs make it unusable for me.

Love it, just wish I could retitle it, so instead of 'Upcoming events' or having the next event highlighted I could have custom text or remove that highlighted line altogether.

... despite all the options in the settings, a crucial one is missing. The app insists on opening the stock Google Calendar app, not the third-party calendar (Sunrise) that I have set as my default, and there is no option to choose which calendar app for it to open.

Looks like it's got some nice features, but unfortunately it seems to only work with the built-in Samsung Calendar app on my S4, even though I have Sunrise Calendar set as the default. Therefore, I can't use it since I don't have all my Google calendars configured in the Samsung Calendar app. Would be nice if it could use my default calendar instead of the built-in one.

A big improvement on the built-in Dashclock calendar. One suggestion - instead of displaying a time of 12:00 AM for all-day event, could you display "All Day"?

Great extension for DashClock, way more customizable than the built-in calendar plugin. The latest update fixed all the bugs that affected me, couldn't be much better.

Option to chose custom calendar (other than the stock one) upon tap would be great.

This is definitely a better calendar extension, what would make it the ultimate though would be to allow it to show unlimited events during the time period, 4 is way too few. I like seeing all my events for the next 2 weeks.

Great work! My only feedback is that it would be great if you could increase the number of events/appointments so that >4 can display (I think DashClock supports up to 6).

This DashClock extension shows more upcoming events than the built-in extension, and has more flexibility and options. The effects of the options aren't always obvious, so sometimes a little trial and error is needed to understand how everything will be displayed - it's easy to display nothing! Once you understand the options, though, it's fast to customize. After updating, be sure to reselect Preview Time, plus the All-day Events and custom calendar options if chosen previously, as they seem to reset.

Can only see title of event in collapsed view. When dashclock isn't collapsed first row always shows date and if date is disabled in settings it shows "ON"?? Would like it to look like in the second screenshot.

Design and range of options is good. Only have one niggle in that the first event when highlighted does not show the day or time when using Max lines.

Why not have option to open third party app (calendar) on tapping the DashClock extension? Seems more than me needs this.
