Calendar Syncing: Difference between revisions

EventR allows you to synchronise all the activities in an itinerary to your device's local calendar. This toggle can be found in the Notifications, Calendar (& Widgets) screen, under the Summary page. This allows you to use other tools with your itinerary information.

You can filter the sections, categories, and public items.

We create a specific EventR Calendar, so depending on your settings you may need to enable it to see it. It will begin with "EventR - ".

For this feature to work, you must enable calendar access permissions to EventR in your device settings.

On Android, you'll need to enable a non-Google account (in your Calendar App, Settings, Manage accounts) before the calendars will be visible in the normal user-interface.

Steps to exporting your calendar

Exporting iCloud calendar

iCloud calendars showing Eventr Calendar.

With an Apple Mac (recommended):

Go to a Mac, open the Calendar app.
Click on "EventR - " calendar.
Go to File -> Export -> Export, and save the ics file.

Without an Apple Mac:

In a web browser, go to icloud.com/calendar.
Hover the cursor over the calendar, and click the "profile" icon.
Enable "Public Calendar" (disabling after these steps is recommended).
Copy the link shown, paste into the URL of a new tab and replace webcal with http .
Hit enter and it will attempt to download the ics file.

Exporting Google calendar

Eventr Calendars only exist on the device to which it's been synced, so you need to export using a third-party app such as this.
