Notion Calendar: If you want a free calendar app and do not need automatic task time blocking
Morgen
Subscription calendar and task time-blocking app that dropped its free plan in March 2026
As of 1 September 2026, Morgen starts at $15/month. A calendar app that unifies multiple calendar and task sources into one scheduling view with automatic time blocking for tasks. Softwr lists it under Calendars. Morgen is available on Mac, Windows, Web, iOS.
Overview
What Morgen does
Morgen connects calendars from Google, Microsoft, iCloud and CalDAV sources alongside task lists from tools such as Todoist, Asana or ClickUp, and shows everything in one merged view. Its distinguishing feature is automatic time blocking, where tasks from a connected task manager can be scheduled directly into open calendar slots, along with availability sharing and booking pages for external scheduling. The fact that changes the comparison against Notion Calendar is pricing history. Morgen offered a free plan for a long time, which made it a natural free alternative to paid scheduling tools, but it discontinued that free plan in March 2026. New users now get a 14-day full-access trial and must then choose a paid plan, an individual Pro plan around 15 US dollars a month billed annually or 30 dollars month to month, or a Team plan around 10 dollars per seat per month billed annually with a two seat minimum. Notion Calendar, by contrast, remains free to use as a standalone calendar app. Buyers are users and small teams who want to merge several calendar and task sources into one scheduling view and value the automatic time-blocking feature enough to pay for it. The trade-off is straightforward now that the free plan is gone: anyone who only needs simple calendar viewing and does not need task-to-calendar automation has less reason to pay for Morgen when a free alternative like Notion Calendar covers the basic need.
What people use it for
- A user juggling several calendar accounts and task managers who wants tasks automatically scheduled into open slots
- A small team that wants shared availability and booking pages without a separate scheduling tool subscription
- Someone comparing calendar apps after Morgen dropped its free plan and weighing whether the time-blocking feature is worth the subscription
- A consultant or freelancer sharing booking links for client scheduling across multiple connected calendars

The honest half
Where it falls short
Concrete and checkable, so you can decide whether any of them matter to you. This is the half of a review a vendor will not write about Morgen.
- The free plan was discontinued in March 2026, so anyone wanting to try it long term now must pay after a 14-day trial, unlike Notion Calendar which remains free.
- The Team plan has a two seat minimum, so a genuinely solo user gets no benefit from the lower per-seat team pricing.
- Automatic task time blocking depends on the connected task manager data being accurate and well maintained, and a messy task list produces a messy schedule.
- It supports a wide range of integrations but each one depends on the third party service API remaining stable, so occasional sync issues can appear after a provider changes something.
- The subscription cost is meaningfully higher than competing calendar apps that remain free, so the value case rests entirely on the time-blocking and multi-source features being genuinely used.
