Doing so can help you visually organize different events, such as holidays, doctor appointments, and so on. While the available colors have long been limited to only 11, Google has finally decided to open up the color palette.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">In a blog post, the company announced that Google Calendar users will now have access to more than 11 event colors. Starting today, you\u2019ll be able to choose from up to 24 default color options. If you still haven\u2019t found the right color for your event, there\u2019s now a full RGB color picker. Through this color picker, Google says you\u2019ll have access to up to 200 custom colors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">The expanded default colors and the color picker will be available on both the web and mobile apps. It will also be available in the Calendar API.<\/p>\n<p class=\"anp-pro-p\">Thank you for being part of our community.
