Calendar Widget - Githubissues

mpfau commented 4 years ago

As a user i want to be able to install a tuta calendar widget on the homescreen so that i can see upcomming events without opening the app.

AC

A widget for each calendar view is availble for installation.
The widget contains a button to create a new event.
There is an option to select the calendars that are available.

Notes

We should introduce this after we have released the calendar app.

Really in need for this feature as well!

Yes! I want this feature a lot!

laius commented 3 years ago

I agree!

Definitely agree! It would be amazing to have the ability to integrate the tutanota calendar with linux, ios, and android operating systems rather than having to go into the email client first. I hope this one comes to fruition!

Hello, an integration into various systems would require something like webdav sync but that's not e2e-encrypted (see here). When this comes, i expect it to be implemented into the email client (or call it email+calendar client? ;) ). I think it also depends on the offline mode to be more useful.

Greetings from Hanover to the Team!

widget Here is what it can look like. It can be bit tricky to implement, if you are gonna add the fingerprint/pin security feature too. Maybe the widget won't show the event details when you click on it, but it will open the app and require you to authenticate.

If a contact and calendar providers (as discussed in https://github.com/tutao/tutanota/issues/1066) are implemented, one could use any calendar widget (like the one provided out of the box with most smartphones). It would also unlock other use cases like dialer integration, the possibility to add or join a Jitsi Meet link associated to a meeting, the ability to see one's contacts in other messaging apps like Signal, etc. Maybe these contact and calendar providers should be optionally activated so that the most security concerned persons could leave it deactivated though.

freedriven commented 3 years ago

YES! As mentioned in #1066 , the option to integrate contacts and calendars is critical. Encryption and privacy should always be an option, even an easy option, but not a mandate. Of course, a long term goal of e2ee for all information is great. But there is always the trade-off of ease of use and security. And as of now, Tutanota is forcing me to choose full security at a high cost of ease of use, and I choose otherwise.

yann-soubeyrand commented 3 years ago

@freedriven don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that E2EE should be optional: this is the raison d'être of Tutanota and I hope it'll always be ;-) What I say is that a lot of features can be unlocked if we consider that the user end in E2EE is the phone. However, I think that the user should be able to chose if she trusts her phone to be the user end or if she considers that the user end should be the Tutanota app and nothing else.

freedriven commented 3 years ago

Yea, my post was written very poorly. I didn't mean to say that Tutanota email E2EE should be optional. I agree, that's the service they provide and core mission.

To put it another way, as is, I won't use Tutanota. But, if they integrated user/phone Calendar and Contact data into their app, even if that data was handled using industry standard security protocols and not encrypted at rest on Tutanota servers, I'd switch to Tutanato. That's an ease of use vs security trade-off I'd personally make.

God I'm missing the calendar widget .(

rafaeldrs commented 2 years ago

Can't agree more with others. This is a must have feature. Anyway, thanks for everything tutanota team. Love the service 👏

elairat commented 2 years ago

Seriously, if this gadget doesn't show up asap, I will move to protonmail. I've been waiting for this now more than a year because I so believe in Tutanota and love all the rest they do. But I can't run my business without this one. This gadget is a must! And I don't want to be connected to my mails all the time, it's crazy on my brain overload. How can we speed this up? And when is it expected delivery date for it?

antoniotari commented 1 year ago

any news about this? This is pretty essential for Android users and I can see this thread has been open since jan 2020. In my opinion calendar should be a high priority feature. Please let us know any update about the expected delivery date for it. Thanks.

Here to give a +1 for this issue. Since getting Tutanota I am waiting to ditch other calendar apps on my phone but without fast calendar access Tutanotas calendar is just unusable for me. I prefer a clean widget with upcoming events to clicking 5 buttons and waiting for an app to load until I can see my entries. Even better if the calendar would integrate into Linux/Ubuntu so I can use its native calendar.
