========================================
After updating to A11 I started to see major issues with the battery optimizations, mostly on Gmail app, but once I started to investigate I see it overall. Email notification come with hours , if not tens of hours delay , which was not the case on A10. I noticed that even whether app is not updating in timely fashion.
It looks like phone goes to hibernate and not resumes for notification only once in a couple of hours if not more. Strangely but whatsapp is working fine. I have disabled all battery optimizations and I saw some improvements but not that good as in A10. Yesterday for instance, I lost a couple of important emails since they Gmail App only synchronized once in 10 hours....which is unacceptable.
Factory reset does not help since I have done it at least 7 times due to various issues since A11 update a week ago...

Please help!!!! I don't know what else to look for!

I don't know what you are talking about. Settings => apps=> google calendar has no categories for me. Here is a screenshot
The same is valid for calendar's app settings...

I meant switches for calendar notifications and task notifications 🙂 switches is much better than categories in this case 🙂

I tried to say that you had it correct, you had both switches enabled in your screenshot - one for calendar and the other for task notifications 😉

Hello Guys
Same issue for me, with my ZenFone 7 Pro.
No more notification from Google Calendar. And in the settings nothing has been changed : all notifications are still enabled.
I tried to remove the app/clear data&cache/disable the app.... nothing solved the issue.
The thing which is strange : I've a Xiaomi MiBand connected over Bluetooth to my phone => He still send me the Google Calendar notifications. But the phone keeps not showing them (no sound, no notification). So it's like the notification is working, but the ZenFone instantly remove the notification in the phone. Anyone else have a wearable to confirm this behaviour ?
