Mieux que le lien public de Google Calendar
Google Calendar's public link is all-or-nothing, Google-only, and unbranded
Making a Google Calendar public is a blunt instrument: no per-event opt-out, no branded subscribe page, no analytics, and it implicitly nudges subscribers into Google's ecosystem. Broadcast channels keep the 'subscribe to everything' model but fix every other pain point.
Le Défi
- ✕Google Calendar's public link shows no branding — subscribers see raw Google UI
- ✕No per-event opt-out — it's the whole calendar or nothing
- ✕Subscribers on Apple or Outlook need to jump through hoops to subscribe
- ✕No subscriber count, no opt-out analytics, no signal at all
- ✕If you ever leave Google Workspace, your subscribers lose the feed
Comment WhenToMeet vous aide
Works on every calendar equally
Google, Apple, Outlook, iCal. Google's own public link is best on Google; broadcast is equally good on all four.
Your branding, not Google's
Cover image, description, your channel name. Google's public view is raw Google UI.
Per-event opt-out
Subscribers mute individual events — impossible with a raw public Google Calendar.
Subscriber analytics
See how many subscribed and which events got muted. Google's public link offers zero visibility.
Portable
Not tied to a specific Google Workspace account. Move hosting without losing subscribers.
Fonctionnalités Clés
A proper subscribe URL
whentomeet.io/b/your-slug replaces the awkward Google Calendar share URL.
Anonymous subscribers
Google Calendar public links are also anonymous in practice, but broadcast makes that an intentional model with per-event opt-out.
Recurring events done right
First-class recurring support with clean edits. Google Calendar public feeds expose sometimes-janky instance overrides.
Timezone-correct everywhere
Every subscriber sees their local timezone. Google's public view can confuse subscribers in other locales.
One-tap unsubscribe
Remove the feed with one tap. Google Calendar subscribers have to find the right settings page.

Replace your Google Calendar public link. Every subscriber gets a better flow.
Questions Fréquemment Posées
Why not just share my Google Calendar?+−
A public Google Calendar mixes your personal life with the public schedule, has no branding, no per-event opt-out, and forces subscribers into Google UX. A broadcast channel is purpose-built for public sharing.
Can I still sync from my Google Calendar?+−
Yes — integrate WhenToMeet with Google Calendar if you want events you create there to appear in the broadcast channel. The subscribe experience is still broadcast-branded.
What about Apple Calendar subscribers?+−
Apple subscribers use the same subscribe URL. The subscribe page detects the device and opens the right calendar.
Will the subscribe URL break if I change email providers?+−
No — the broadcast URL is hosted by WhenToMeet. You can change Google Workspace accounts without losing subscribers.
Can subscribers see my personal events?+−
No — you only publish specific events to the channel, not your whole calendar. Personal events stay private.
How is per-event opt-out different?+−
Google Calendar public links don't support it — subscribers get everything or unsubscribe. Broadcast lets each subscriber mute specific events.
Is it free?+−
Yes, the core broadcast channel is free.
