permissions
Exactly why Next Meeting asks for Google access — and exactly what it does with it.
Next Meeting never edits, creates, or deletes anything in your calendar. Access is strictly read-only — the plugin only ever asks Google for a list of your upcoming events.
Next Meeting requests exactly three Google scopes, and nothing beyond them:
| Permission | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Google Calendar (read-only) | Display your upcoming meetings and the time remaining until each one. |
| OpenID | Authenticate you with Google so the plugin knows which account is connected. |
| Display the connected account's name, so you can tell accounts apart. |
These are the only permissions Next Meeting requests from your Google account. It never asks for permission to write, edit, or delete anything in your calendar.

faq
Straight answers to the questions Google reviewers — and everyone else — tend to ask.
Why does the plugin request Calendar access?
Calendar access is the only way to show you which meeting is next and how much time is left before it starts. Without it, Next Meeting has nothing to display.
Does it modify my events?
No. Next Meeting only ever reads your calendar. It cannot create, edit, or delete events — the Google scope it requests (calendar.readonly) doesn't grant write access at all.
Where is my data stored?
Locally, on your computer. Next Meeting has no backend and no cloud sync — your calendar data and OAuth tokens never leave your machine.
Is there a server, or does it phone home?
No. There's no backend service, no analytics, and no telemetry. The plugin talks directly to Google's Calendar API and to nothing else.
Can I disconnect my account?
Yes, any time. Disconnect it from within the plugin, or revoke access directly from your Google Account permissions page.
Does it support Outlook?
Microsoft Outlook Calendar support is in development, following the same read-only, local-first approach as Google Calendar. Google Calendar is fully supported today.
