SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Timezone misalignment for imported ICS calendars causes events to appear at incorrect local times when using gog, leading to scheduling confusion and missed meetings.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detects imported ICS feeds by calendar ID suffix (e.g., ending with @import.calendar.google.com) and flags inconsistent times.
  • Applies UTC-to-local timezone conversions, accounting for DST (PST/PDT) to align events with the user's local time.
  • Verifies converted times and supports cross-timezone scenarios to reduce scheduling conflicts.

Quick Start

Run gog calendar events on your imported ICS calendar to apply the timezone corrections and display correct local times.
