It also provides other information like the event location, whether there is a cost, and if people need a password to join. Once you’re done creating an event, you can share it with others using your calendar ids or email addresses

If you’re looking to make your reminders more effective, then having pop-up reminders is necessary. You can set the time and frequency of these reminders.
