Add events the way you'd say them

Most calendars make you fill in a form: a title here, a date picker there, a separate screen for "repeat every." With smart event add, you type the whole thing in one line, the way you'd say it out loud. "Dinner with Kash next Friday 7pm" becomes an event on that Friday at 7:00 PM, without a single dropdown.

As you type, a live preview shows what KashCal understood, so you can check the date, time and repeat before you save.

One line does the work​

Dates, however you say them
"tomorrow", "next Friday", "March 15", "3/15/2027" all land on the right day.
Times, spoken or exact
"3pm", "half past 3", "2pm to 4pm", or "morning" if you're not precise yet.
Repeats without a dialog
"every weekday", "every 2 weeks", "every Monday until December" or "last Thursday of the month" sets the repeat.
Duration and offsets
"for 90 minutes", "in 2 weeks" and "3 days ago" set the length or the day.
Location after "at"
"Lunch at Olive Garden" files the place in the location field, not the title.
Tags with #
"Deep work #focus" adds a tag and keeps the rest as the event.

Turn it on​

Smart event add is off until you turn it on. Tap Accounts & Settings in the account hub, then switch on Smart event add under Event preferences. After that, the + button opens the typing box in every calendar view. The guide has the details.

It shows its work​

While you type, the preview shows the title, the date (Today, Tomorrow, Yesterday or the date), the time range, the location, the note, any repeat and your tags. If something looks off, keep typing and the preview updates. For more control, tap More options to open the full event form with what you typed filled in.

Share text into it​

Share text from another app to KashCal, and the typing box opens with the text filled in, even when smart event add is off. The first link in the text becomes the location, unless the text names a place with "at". Text longer than 500 characters opens the full event form instead.

A few things you can type​

You typeKashCal creates
Coffee with Kash tomorrow 3pm"Coffee with Kash", tomorrow at 3:00 PM
Standup every weekday at 9am"Standup", repeating every weekday at 9:00 AM
Rent last day of every month"Rent", on the last day of every month
Team sync last Thursday of the month"Team sync", the last Thursday of each month

Without a date, the event goes on the day you have selected. In the Day, 3 Days and Week views, it goes on today.
