Notion to Calendar vs 2sync
Compare calendar subscriptions and direct Google and Outlook connections
Both products offer direct calendar connections with different supported features. Notion to Calendar combines iCal subscriptions with a Google beta that sends Notion events to Google and an Outlook two-way beta for supported events. 2sync focuses on established direct one-way and two-way workflows for supported services.
Why Notion to Calendar
The features that make the difference
Direct sync without giving up iCal
Use the direct Google or Outlook beta connections to avoid waiting for calendar subscription updates. The iCal feed remains available for Apple Calendar, Fantastical, sharing, and other compatible apps.
Share without Notion access
Generate a calendar link anyone can subscribe to. Perfect for clients, family, or team members who don't use Notion.
Know where edits apply
Google changes do not update Notion. The Outlook two-way beta supports eligible connections and supported events, with an option to return to sending changes from Notion only.
A permanent free plan
Start with one feed and up to 30 events at no cost. 2sync offers a 14-day trial before a paid subscription.

FAQ
Common questions
What is 2sync?
2sync provides one-way and two-way synchronization between Notion and supported services, including direct Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar integrations.
Does 2sync work with Apple Calendar?
2sync does not list a direct Apple Calendar integration. Its documentation suggests connecting Apple Calendar through a Google or Outlook calendar. Notion to Calendar instead provides an iCal URL that Apple Calendar can subscribe to directly.
Can I share my Notion calendar with someone who doesn't use Notion?
With Notion to Calendar, yes. Generate a private calendar link and share it with someone you trust. They can subscribe in a compatible calendar app without needing a Notion account.
Does Notion to Calendar work with Apple Calendar?
Yes! We work with any calendar app that supports iCal feeds - Apple Calendar, Fantastical, BusyCal, Outlook, Google Calendar, and more.

See all Premium features
- Several Notion workspaces, one account
- Connect your personal, work or client workspaces and choose which databases to use. Each workspace keeps its own permissions.
- Direct calendar connections
- Send Notion events to a dedicated Google calendar or connect Outlook. Google edits do not update Notion. Outlook two-way beta supports selected edits on linked, non-recurring events when enabled for your connection.
- Feeds for each project
- Create multiple feeds from a database. Apply filters or start from an existing Notion view with its date field, filter and name.
- The event details you need
- Choose titles and descriptions from Notion properties. Include locations, links and attachments in compatible iCal apps. Direct connections support their own set of mapped fields.
- More dates in your calendar
- Formula date fields are supported. Premium feeds fetch a broader event window than Free.
- Share a schedule by URL
- Share an iCal feed with people who do not use Notion. Anyone with the private URL can read that feed, so share it only with the intended recipients.
- Shorter feed caching
- Premium keeps the source feed fresh more often. Calendar apps still choose when to fetch iCal subscriptions. Direct Google and Outlook connections do not wait for that polling cycle; processing is asynchronous.
