Frequently asked questions
Can I import my Google Calendar?
Yes. In Google Calendar choose Settings → Import & export → Export, unzip the file and open the .ics in openWorkstand.
Does it send reminders?
openWorkstand shows browser notifications for events while a openWorkstand tab is open. It does not send emails, because it has no server and no account.
Where are my files saved?
In a folder you choose on your own computer (for example Documents/openWorkstand). openWorkstand has no servers that store your work, so nothing is uploaded. In browsers that cannot open a folder, files are kept in private browser storage on your device and you can download them at any time.
Is it really free?
Yes. There is no paid plan, no trial and no account. openWorkstand is supported by a few ads on public tool pages; there are never ads inside your workspace.
Ready when you are.
No sign-up, nothing to install. Your files stay on your computer.
