In regards to this the settings UI of calendar notify isnāt the best and this could possibly either be because the āshow past eventsā or āshow all day eventsā arenāt ticked (also thereās an option buried away about which calendars get shown) - however a key bit of information for me is whether the events are showing up in other google calendar apps? Is it just calendar notify thatās an issue?
Yes, those options are ticked and the events are missing in other calendar apps like Up To, though visible in Google.
Mmm how odd! Ahh actually Iāve just checked and all day events arenāt showing up for me either (I had only been using it for specific timed events), so I think this is a general issue, not specific to your situation - I remember @Vincent_Tang (?) or someone talking about an oddity in the way all day events are handled by dynalist (i.e. set to 00:00 or something, Vincent? Or am I thinking of someone else?)
You might have been thinking of this post I made: (About disabling google calendar sync if time stamp is current time)
Unrelated issue though

Ah, maybe 
Thanks for reporting this issue!
So the calendar item is visible in Google when viewing the calendar, but itās not visible in the āUp toā view? Is that correct? And whatās the āUp toā view? Sorry not a Google Calendar power user hereā¦
āUp Toā and āCalendar Notifyā are two of the calendar apps that draw on the Google calendars. They may have more strict rules about showing events without a āconfirmedā end date.
Ah, I seeā¦ do they support other all-day events like holidays and birthdays?
Yes, they do.
Thatās weird. I tried comparing a Dynalist-generated event and a manually generated event. They look the same to me, and the only difference is the pink shade. The āAll dayā checkbox was checked too. Not sure why they behaved differentlyā¦
Iām not a coder, but perhaps thereās a difference in the way Dynalist might populate the end date and how it happens manually. I notice that using Calendar sync for all day events with ActiveInbox also leaves the end date pink.
Might be because of the way we set all day events to start and end to the same timestamp. I could try to shift it by a day, or a millisecond and see if Google Calendar likes that better.
I imagine if you shift it by a day it will become a two day event, no? Maybe the millisecond is a workaround for oblivious Google.

Hmm, seems like all-day events created in Google Calendar has start and end dates that are exactly 1 day apart! Iāll make changes on my end and itāll go out sometimes later.

Confirmed that this is indeed what Google Calendar needs: (no red background)
This should now be applied to all newly synced items.

This seems promising. But Iām still seeing the red background with new items. Iāve refreshed Dynalist.
I just realized my commit didnāt make it to our last deployment. Iām making a new deployment right now.
