I’ve just booked an eye test for next week and it’s made me love Google Calendar even more.

Adding the appointment to my calendar worked in almost the way I imagined computers would when I was a child.

I clicked Quick Add and a dialogue appeared. The example below the dialogue was enough to tell me I could talk to the calendar in a way that’s convenient for me, rather than having to fit the developer’s chosen format.

So, I tapped in:

Specsavers 12.40 next Tuesday

And that’s it. The appointment is now in my calendar.
