At least also experiencing the autosync part of your issues with google calendar. Can’t even remember if it ever worked properly. An autosync seems to happen very irregular (if ever). Fortunately we have a system that we can tinker with, so we can work around some of the SailfishOS quirks. In my case I have a (cron)job scheduled to sync with my google calender every day so my calendar should be near up-to-date even when I did no manual syncs.

Same here, for me hoogle calendar is no syncing at all, ie entries from the mail account s calendar are not reflecred on the phone.
