Share an event as a card

Turn an event into a card and send it to anyone. The card goes out as an image with a calendar file attached, so the person you send it to can add the event to their own calendar in one tap. They don't need KashCal or an account.

How to share​

  1. Tap an event to open its quick view. This works for device-calendar events too.

  2. Tap the Share as card icon in the top row.

  3. Pick a style:

    • Standard for everyday events.
    • Celebration for birthdays, parties and other occasions.

    KashCal picks Celebration for you when the title has a word like birthday, party, wedding, anniversary or graduation, or an emoji like 🎂 or 🎉. You can switch styles before you send.

  4. Tap Send and choose where it goes: a message, an email, or any app that accepts shared files.

For a repeating event, the card and the file describe only the occurrence you tapped.

What the recipient gets​

  • A card image with the event's title, date, time, and location if it has one. Its bottom line reads "Made with KashCal".
  • A calendar file (.ics) they can tap to add the event to their calendar app.

If KashCal can't create the calendar file, it sends the card image on its own.

What the card shares​

The calendar file is a single, standalone copy of the event. It keeps the title, date, time and time zone, notes, location, link, reminders, tags and color.

It leaves out the guest list, the organizer and the repeat rule, so a card doesn't show who else is invited.

Check the notes before you send

The calendar file includes the event's notes. If the notes hold something private, such as a meeting link, a door code or a phone number, edit them out before you share the card.
