NotchStar says “No upcoming events” on the Calendar tab, or “Nothing scheduled” on Home, when it finds no event that is still to come before the end of tomorrow. The cause is usually one of four things, and each takes a minute to check.

Check in this order

Everything has ended. NotchStar hides events that have finished. If your last meeting ended at 5 pm, the list is empty at 6 pm until tomorrow’s events start to count.
The event is too far away. The window ends at the end of tomorrow. Something on Friday does not show on Wednesday.
The calendar is not on your Mac. NotchStar reads what macOS holds. Open the Calendar app. If the event is not there, add the account first, as described in Google Calendar events.
Access was refused. A refused permission shows a card asking for access, not an empty list, so read the denied fix if you see that card.

Reminders say All done

“All done” means no incomplete reminder was found that is due by the end of tomorrow. It also appears when reminders access is off, because the list simply stays empty. Turn on Reminders in Privacy & Security to rule that out.

Still stuck

Close the notch and open it again. The list reloads each time the Calendar or Home view appears. For the full rules, see which events show and the feature page.
