Same. Meanwhile, my wife's Google calendar looks like she's playing Tetris. Different colors for different categories of activity all fit together in blocks.

> still on October 2025

Yeah, that's my problem. I just never look at her calendar unless, well, she goes missing on a trip to Disney or somesuch.  I should listen more, hhh.

I'm not keen on the idea of a digital calendar, either. It just adds another tech dependency.  Hell, I don't even look at my own G calendar, I set it up to send me an email.

I have a paper calendar on the wall next to my desk. 

My wife looked at it the other day and said, "It probably wouldn't help if I put an appointment on your calendar, would it?"

I looked up and it was still on October 2025.

In theory, some (all?) android tablets that can load google apps might work.

Here's what Gemini also suggested:
If you want the largest screen and total control over the exact app being used, go with the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+. ^$200

If you decide to go with a tablet, I can find some flush wall mounts and right-angle charging cables to help you set it up.

LPJ keeps a paper calendar for me to reference my many, many appointments & her schedule.  I saw a recommendation for digital calendars like below & thought that might be easier.

The more popular brands use an E-Calendar app to sync with google calendar BUT that means giving your google account credentials to a 3rd party --not a good security idea.  So the one above uses google's own app so you stay in the google ecosystem.

But I was hoping to find one that just used the wifi LAN and didn't phone home. I went to Gemini and asked --no luck.

Gemini did, however, suggest using an Ipad (we have that old one) and load the Ipad Google Calendar app and lock it on screen.  I'd wanted a larger screen but this might be  a good start.
