  • An app that has been requested on this channel time and time again is the stock Calendar app. Rather than create a regular tutorial, I figured I’d talk about some of the interesting and lesser known ways you can use the calendar app.

    I think my favorite feature of apple calendar/iCal is the travel time options. I can have all my appointments automatically estimate the travel time from my previous events location/home. Not only will I get notifications to leave by a certain time, but it also blocks my calendar off during travel time so I don’t have to worry about back to back meetings and appointments without the time to get there.

    I think an underrated thing in the calendar app is using the “time to leave” feature. I also think the alternate list views are not talked about enough. And finally I love how well the calendar app search feature works. I will often remember just one bit about an appointment I set and it will be found!

    Thanks for this review, I hadn't realised attachments could be added. I tried lots of To Do lists/Calendars/Reminder applications over a LONG period, but came back to the (free) inbuilt calendar within Apple as being best suited for my needs - it now serves all those purposes, not just as a calendar & links seamlessly with iPad, Mac and Watch. I create the majority of my Events using Siri "on the go" through my watch. One of the best features for me is being able to "Press and hold" events to reschedule them by sliding them up & down to different times & for events on the same theme (e.g. multiple items to discuss with an individual) sliding them to the same time (on top of each other) then they multiply left to right to keep a clear, uncluttered screen.

    a. Notes and amazing notes for iPad are excellent apps to have everything under control. I use it cause I can see my calendar’s events and reminders all in one app. I like how this app displays all the information in the month-view, respects colors and differentiates events from reminders. Even it takes into account the upcoming reminders that you need to be repeated automatically… I use calendar and reminders as entry apps and a.Notes as my final review to see if everything is as planned!!!

    @1:40 I like the linking back features from reminder app to calendar or notes but I also wish it goes both ways so I can open a reminder item or check if off from within the associated Calendar event and it synced back to Reminder app. I love doing this with my errands and shopping because Maps will already have the location of my next event, at the location I just opened up the calendar event and start checking off my reminder, items or see notes or attachments associated with that event. Please Apple make it so. The more linkable the better. I just have to send them a Feedback report. :)😊

    Linking Reminders to Calendars is fantastic, thank you. I hate that Apple don't make this information known more clearly. And I'd really love if we could just get them to create something that would allow us to see reminders, notes and events in one screen. Yes, I can split screen, but managing my day would be a lot easier if I could see all entries in one go rather than switching between 3 apps.

It just doesn’t make sense why the iOS version is so limited. Any tricks for creating more than two alerts in the iOS version of Calendar?

    I envy you young people with your IT. Now in my twilight years, I remain a devotee of the Filofax. Open a page, scribble a note and then forget all about it until after the event. Open the Filofax again, choose a date and enter a reminder to apologise for missing the event referred to previously.
    Scroll through the weeks ahead and make a mental reminder of birthdays/anniversaries etc entered at the arrival of the Filofax replacement around October the previous year. Endorse the mental reminder on pages in the Filofax for the day before as a reminder.
    Put the Filofax in the desk drawer with a reminder on a post it sticker attached to the fridge to check the Filofax.
    Post It sticker on fridge disappears but you’ve been clever and used another and placed that on the desk top.
    Arrive at the desk, check the Filofax and see there are no birthdays or anniversaries over the next week.
    All is well, you hadn’t forgotten those events after all. Feel pleased with yourself and have a drink and smirk.
    The aged have little need for IT.

    Thank you for the press-hold-drag into different app technique - terrific. Another helpful video.
    Although I use the Apple calendar all the time because of its integration into Apple, the Apple calendar remains for me the least adequate native app. Actually, it’s the only Apple app that I find deficient enough to demand a third party app alongside. Why? The absolutely inexplicable refusal of Apple to give us a real monthly view that at a glance shows all the monthly events, which is a simple and intuitive way to see patterns and plan events. And so, for example, I use Calendars 5, which for me replaced Fantastical, and I have the Calendars 5 monthly widget on the Home Screen. One tap and all upcoming events for the month appear, as well as open times.

      Indeed, I also have used the Outlook calendar. Its aesthetics are excellent. The problems for me is that the mail part of the Outlook app is clunky and ugly, and the app itself is an enormous memory hog on the phone. Also, no Outlook widget presents an entire month on the Home Screen. Go figure.
