Hi, we’re Binni and Kristine and we’re thrilled to have you here! On our channel, we share our best advice on how to have an organized and happy family life, while being real about the challenges of parenthood.
We are a Scandinavian family of 6 (a real rarity nowadays) who loves to travel, play board games and “hygge” together. Join us every Thursday for a new fun-filled video on:
- Decluttering, organizing, and productivity - How-to guides, tutorials, and reviews of organizing systems and apps - Clean, cook, shop, and declutter with me... usually with some sort of twist - Skits and funny family-themed videos
If this sounds like your jam, please stick around and subscribe. We'd also l love to hear from you so please leave a quick comment and say hi!
Along with our RU-vid channel, we also consult to help you go from overwhelmed to organized. Follow the link to schedule a FREE introductory call to see if we are the right fit for you!
Thank you for the video. I am having trouble adding the Apple calendar to the Cozi calendar. The directions are to click to the right of the calendar you'd like to share, select Public Calendar. Copy the link. I don't see that feature on my iCloud account. (Public calendar)
Maybe this is the issue: 1. Uninstalled/deleted Google Calendar 2. Download Google Calendar from Apple Store, Re-install 3. Open the Google Calendar app, first thing it asks is “Google Calendar Would Like To Access Your Calendar. Calendars are used to show events and birthdays.” [Dont Allow] or [OK] WTF! What setting allows Google cloud event notifications and reminders on an Apple device? I do not see why Google and Apple need to integrate and co-mingle this data to function! Is this the problem, I really have only one valid reply - [OK] - to get this to work?
Then when setting up the Google account in the Google Calendar app on the iPhone, first time use for EVERY Google account, you get very ominous privacy setting forms to allow iOS to access your Google data (up to and including DELETE - scary!). And settings to allow Google to access your iOS data (again, ominous warning including DELETE). Please create a video explaining these complex relationships. Should I abandon Google Calendar on my Apple devices, or move to an Android-based device? Will all flavors of Android work, or will some be locked down like Apple? (Google Pixel products probably work, but the others?!?)
Thank you guys for making this video XOXO to you. Sorry Google, but just getting rid of my Google Calendar, because it is just CRAP. I was very hopeful about "Google" becoming my calender, but i am DOOOONE people. Just going back to iCalendar.
I quit using Cozi and then went back. I had to get a new email address because it kept saying the email is already in use and won’t let us log in. Please help. My daughter can’t get on
hey guys How can I continue receiving calendar notifications from a hidden calendar?? I just dont want those entries shown on my calender HOWEVER I want to receive the notifications (I just don't like too much stuff on my calender). PLease help thanks
"REJECTING PERFECTIONISM" (A nostalgic short story about my great grandfather, and his daughter, my grandmother - "Nanny Orah") ❤️ The Swedes have a word for REJECTING PERFECTIONISM: "LAGOM", roughly translates to "JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT", "BALANCE & FOCUS ON THE ESSENTIAL ELEMENTS." My father's-mother's-father (Oscar Johnson - my great grandfather), immigrated to Canada from Sweden when the Titanic sailed... The Story is... ...Oscar had 2 tickets for the Titanic, however his brother was called to work 2 weeks earlier... They never took the Titanic... if not for this perceived "Imperfect timing", perhaps he and my grandmother and my father and I never would have existed! 🤷♂️ Dependant on perspective, this may have been "Lagom"? Supposedly... Oscar brought electricity to Northern Alberta, and... supposedly, Oscar once bought land on a handshake in Peace River Country (later found to have oil) - the handshake wasn't honoured... who knows what that could have meant for my family... Dependant on perspective, this may have been "Lagom"? His Daughter (Orah Johnson), my Dad's Mom, is one of the most inspiring women I've ever known. Her kids and grandkids (myself included) could do no wrong in her eyes, always loved and accepted for who we were. Orah valued and paid close attention to everyones unique individuality and encouraged our strengths and abilities, never a harsh or critical word spoken to us, only seeing our value! She was proud of us all in our unique authentic ways. Full of love, compassion, empathy, understanding, seeing the best in everyone, she showed gentle assertiveness and care. To Orah everyone had value and worth! She somehow lived and embodied: "Lagom", as though she believed EVERYONE IS ESSENTIAL, and EVERYONE WAS JUST RIGHT for who they are! ❤️ The mindset of Lagom can bring a different perspective. Life may not be perfect, perhaps there is a balance and peace of mind when focusing on the essentials and rejecting perfectionism? ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-bPSNfd5rt30.htmlsi=ZIVNulKaHBrDu8gt
You’ve got a really annoying voice. You don’t pronounce words properly, like “pretty”. Also, the fake smiles and super happy vibe is totally over the top.
I have a sort of specific requirement. I want a printable meal plan. Digital meal planning is great and I enjoy a lot of the features of it but I really need a printed recipe that I can write on and mark up as needed. I'm sorry I'm a little bit old-fashioned. Can you print the recipes from any of these apps?
Typical Scandinavian stuff….😂😂😂😂….design furniture….LOL! Y’all are great! Love the video but Google has too much data already so I might try Cozi though. (Who will sell my data anyway.) 😢
In its infinite wisdom Apple has eliminated the sound select option from Google Callender in iOS. The permanent sound they set it at is a little twiddle that sounds only once. I carry my phone in my back pocket so no joy in hearing that.
why this video so underrated and unpopular this experiment should be very important for everyone because we consume so much social media and bad habits
Give Famhive a try - it's another family organizer app. No need to set up your Google calendar anymore. It could be one of the most suitable calendar app for family. This all-in-one app also allows you to add events and tasks, motivate children with points and rewards, and even use AI to generate shopping lists
Dark Mode. I have a very difficult time with white space. Can you turn on Dark Mode when you record these? Gosh it makes it much more easier to see it. Tyvn
I’m concerned. I just accepted an invitation to a family calendar and I’m concerned about the managers privileges and if they will be able to get into my personal data.
Hey Guys, I'm tearing my hair out with my iPhone - I don't get notifications from my Google calendar and I've tried everything and it still doesn't work.I missed a meeting this morning as a result. Not cool. I have two accounts shared on my calendar, work and personal. When I go to the in app settings - burger icon and into general and scroll down, I don't have the option to turn on notifications 🤷🏼♀ Any ideas???!!!
