Device calendars

Your phone probably already holds calendars from other apps: a Google account, an Outlook account, a work account, the system "Reminders" calendar, and so on. KashCal can show those right alongside its own, so everything sits in one place. This is how you bring Google and Outlook calendars into KashCal.

Turn it on​

  1. Open Settings → Device Calendars.
  2. Toggle it on. KashCal asks for calendar permission:

    Calendar read permission required. Tap Enable to grant access.

  3. Enable the specific calendars you want using the switch on each row. The footer shows how many are enabled.
  4. Once enabled, you can still show or hide those calendars per view from the navigation drawer.

Reading vs. editing​

  • By default, KashCal reads your device calendars and displays their events.

  • To edit device-calendar events from within KashCal, grant write permission:

    Grant write permission to edit device calendar events

    Without it, those events are shown read-only.

Some device calendars are read-only by nature; KashCal will tell you if you try to change one:

This calendar is read-only.

Reminders for device events​

KashCal can also deliver reminders for your device-calendar events. Look for the device-calendar reminder toggle in Settings.

How this is different from connecting an account​

Connecting iCloud or a CalDAV account brings those calendars into KashCal directly. Device calendars instead display calendars that another app already syncs on your phone. Both can be shown together, so pick whichever fits each calendar you use.
