Calendar
Calendar on the phone works with the web-based Google Calendar calendaring service for creating and
managing events, meetings and appointments. It also works with the Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
calendaring service. Calendar on the phone is optimized for the phone.
Viewing your calendar and events
Open Calendar to view events you’ve created or that others have invited you to. When you first set up your
phone, you configured it to use an existing Google Account, or you created a new account. The first time
you open the Calendar application on your phone, it displays any existing calendar events from your
Google Account on the web.
You can add additional accounts with Google Calendar or Microsoft Exchange calendars to your phone and
configure them to display in Calendar. See “Accounts”.
When you first set up Calendar to synchronize events on your phone, it includes events from the previous
month through one year in the future. Subsequently, Calendar keeps a year’s worth of future events
synchronized between your phone and the web, plus any later events that you add to your calendar using
Calendar on your phone.
Open Calendar
Touch the Calendar icon on the Home screen or in the Launcher.
Events from each account you’ve added to your phone and configured to synchronize calendars are
displayed in Calendar. Events from each calendar are displayed in a different color. For information about
which calendars are displayed on your phone, see “Synchronizing and displaying calendars”.
Calendar shows the current time (the red marker and horizontal line in some views) and the time for
events using your local time zone by default, as provided by the mobile network you’re connected to. If
you’re traveling, you can set a home time zone and use it in Calendar instead. See “Changing Calendar
settings”.
Change your calendar view
Press Menu and touch Agenda, Day, Week, or Month.
Each view displays the events in your calendar for the period of
time that you specify.
To view more information about an event in Agenda view, touch
the event.
To view the events of a day in Month view, touch a day.
To make new event, touch Menu/More and New event or press
