Google Launches Calendar App on Apple Watch

Google has released a new Google Calendar app for Apple Watch, marking only the fourth Google service available on the platform alongside Google Keep, Maps, and YouTube Music. The app offers a simple, glanceable interface that displays a week’s worth of events and Google Tasks in a color-coded list, with two complications—"What’s next" and "Today’s date"—to provide quick access from watch faces. While users can tap events for more details, creating or editing events requires opening the full Calendar app on an iPhone, reflecting functionality similar to Google Calendar on Wear OS devices. This release comes after several years without significant new Google apps for Apple Watch, raising questions about whether Google plans to expand its Apple Watch offerings. Despite its limitations, the app provides a useful option for users wanting more Google integration on Apple Watch, though it may not fully replace the native Apple Calendar app due to its restricted features. The rollout is part of the iPhone app update version 25.24.1 and does not yet indicate broader updates or new app launches from Google for the watchOS platform.
