- An app that has been requested on this channel time and time again is the stock Calendar app. Rather than create a regular tutorial, I figured I’d talk about some of the interesting and lesser known ways you can use the calendar app.

Holding an item, dragging it, and then using free hand to open something else where one can drop the held item -- BLOWING MY MIND. Thank you!
this whole video is mind blowing tbh, i am shocked 😧 love it! thanks bro
Ios 17.2 drag drop didn't work. 😔
wow it’s like technology or something
@@DazeyChaineMusic😂

I think an underrated thing in the calendar app is using the “time to leave” feature. I also think the alternate list views are not talked about enough. And finally I love how well the calendar app search feature works. I will often remember just one bit about an appointment I set and it will be found!
I like that feature but I always leave super early and like to get places early. Wish they had a remind me x minutes before time to leave for anxious and early people like me lol
@@mellovesreading9858 what do you mean thats always been a thing. Its under alerts
Can u explain how to start this feature
@@anamikanair3314 I believe is the one right below end time of event, called “travel time”.
I think my favorite feature of apple calendar/iCal is the travel time options. I can have all my appointments automatically estimate the travel time from my previous events location/home. Not only will I get notifications to leave by a certain time, but it also blocks my calendar off during travel time so I don’t have to worry about back to back meetings and appointments without the time to get there.
MY MIND IS BLOWN!! I have been a apple system user from the beginning and I have used all these other productivity apps that cost me a bunch over the years. That hold and drag and drop is a HUUUGE game changer for me. I’m strictly apple now and no money out of pocket and every thing is synced. You saved my business life 😊❤
This guy is my favorite content maker you actually learn something from his videos which means he puts a lot of time learning then sharing. Most UA-cam guys don’t ever empower you to fall in love with Apple apps like he does. Big FAN ❤️🙏⚡️👊🤙🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
I agree - this guy is the best. He uses a minimum of words to deliver maximum comprehension.
Yes! Agreed
Fantastic video. I learned so much about Notes with those tips.
#1-Adding icons to the title sure does make it easier to find a folder.
#2-After viewing your video I realized that a lot of my notes are out of order, in the wrong folders and basically unorganized.
Thanks for the easy to follow video. Keep up the great work 👏🏽
I like the Travel Time feature when booking an appointment. It helps account for travel time between appointments so I’m not booking appointments to closely together. Thanks for a great video.
Thanks for this review, I hadn't realised attachments could be added. I tried lots of To Do lists/Calendars/Reminder applications over a LONG period, but came back to the (free) inbuilt calendar within Apple as being best suited for my needs - it now serves all those purposes, not just as a calendar & links seamlessly with iPad, Mac and Watch. I create the majority of my Events using Siri "on the go" through my watch. One of the best features for me is being able to "Press and hold" events to reschedule them by sliding them up & down to different times & for events on the same theme (e.g. multiple items to discuss with an individual) sliding them to the same time (on top of each other) then they multiply left to right to keep a clear, uncluttered screen.
The reminder/calendar thing is great for important life events too. Birthdays, anniversaries, etc create a reminder to get a gift, card etc.
Shoot this would’ve been super helpful when I used to plan field trips for homeschooling groups.
Lovely video as usual Tom, thank you for this. Was blown away by the feature to drag and drop from the calendar to reminders. I read on your newsletter you were (are) in Florida, hope you and your family are safe and free from any harm, take care and the best regards!
Thanks for showing the method of dragging an event into a reminder app. Calendar events also have alert features. One can even set two alters and it works great. So creating a reminder for an event becomes useless.
Does this work for you in the latest update? Trying this now and cannot drag and drop
I am so happy that I found this video! Instant subscriber & like! 👍🏽
This video alone, helped me to get more organized. I can’t wait to watch more of your content! 💜
I love the search function which I can then screen shot and send to my clients to show them a summary of their up and coming appointments with me!😊
The very first tool has just blew my mind! I was looking for this for sooooo long
thank you! I didn't know how to make a widget and the most helpful tip for me was the week number. I have a rotating weekly schedule and week numbers cut down on confusion. thank you so much
All these tutorials are so informative. Undoubtedly the best on UA-cam
Thank you!
@1:40 I like the linking back features from reminder app to calendar or notes but I also wish it goes both ways so I can open a reminder item or check if off from within the associated Calendar event and it synced back to Reminder app. I love doing this with my errands and shopping because Maps will already have the location of my next event, at the location I just opened up the calendar event and start checking off my reminder, items or see notes or attachments associated with that event. Please Apple make it so. The more linkable the better. I just have to send them a Feedback report. :)😊
Perfect 👍, thank you again for the education 😀. Got one or two great tips from this video which will really help me on a daily basis 👍👍👍 Top man
What an awesome thing to be able to do, to drag an item from one app to another. I use Gmail though, and it didn't seem to work from there. Bummer. But I did get a note into an event. Thanks!!!
Great video, I learned quite a few things I did not know about the Calendar app. I have watched a number of your videos clicked on like, however never subscribed. This video clinched it for me, you have gained a new subscriber. Thanks again.
Excellent, clean and precise. Thank you for the timestamps. Well done
One thing I would love is if the reminders app worked alongside Apple calender so being able to see tasks with check buttons. Now I have to use apps like aki flow/ routine to do this but Apple is missing a trick by not integrating these two things together!
Love your videos - so clear and simple!!
a. Notes and amazing notes for iPad are excellent apps to have everything under control. I use it cause I can see my calendar’s events and reminders all in one app. I like how this app displays all the information in the month-view, respects colors and differentiates events from reminders. Even it takes into account the upcoming reminders that you need to be repeated automatically… I use calendar and reminders as entry apps and a.Notes as my final review to see if everything is as planned!!!
Thank you so much!! This was super helpful, and you spoke Clearly and at a great pace.
It is very rare to find UA-cam tutorials in understandable English - I look forward to more tips from your channel mate- Cheers!
Amazing insights , thank you. I’ve been looking for an easy way to add files to meetings forever!!
Brilliant presentation, clear complete and highly informative
The add attachment feature also works with photos. While viewing photos thumbnails press and hold then close photos open that calendar event and drop into the attachment section.
Thank you for this video, I did not how to create reminders for events. As a person with ADHD, reminders would help with all the reminders to remember it. I use travel time a lot for this now. Even though I work from home on my thesis.
I am the planner addict here, my husband, also neurodiverse, just lets me run his social calendar. He has no interest in running the calendar, and since most of the events are in my mind, I can then add it to our social calendar.
Wauw on the adding files to events (and other tips I didn’t know). Thank you!
I just found your videos and they are fantastic! Thank you for the tips and tricks.
U seem so down to earth and humble, the world needs more people like u. Keep up the good work. Much love and respect from Stockholm Sweden 🙏🏼✌🏻🙌🏼
This guy is the best teacher more RAD IOS default apps please. Making me fall in love with my phone all over again 🤙⚡️
Man, what a great video! And with that accent, I can listen to the same word, over and over and over again. I appreciate your helpful videos, I hope you keep it up, and definitely if I make videos for my topic, hopefully in the future, yours is definitely one of my top models. Thanks again take care.
I love your videos! They are so straightforward and helpful. I have a million photos I need to sort and pair down. Any suggestions on how to do that easily?
Very useful, thank you for the time you take making these great videos, it shows!
Amazing video, really well done. First time watching your videos. Keep up the good work!! 💪🏽💪🏽
Thank you for the press-hold-drag into different app technique - terrific. Another helpful video.
Although I use the Apple calendar all the time because of its integration into Apple, the Apple calendar remains for me the least adequate native app. Actually, it’s the only Apple app that I find deficient enough to demand a third party app alongside. Why? The absolutely inexplicable refusal of Apple to give us a real monthly view that at a glance shows all the monthly events, which is a simple and intuitive way to see patterns and plan events. And so, for example, I use Calendars 5, which for me replaced Fantastical, and I have the Calendars 5 monthly widget on the Home Screen. One tap and all upcoming events for the month appear, as well as open times.
Ibise the outlook calendar app in preference. But I hadn't looked at apple calendar for a while
Indeed, I also have used the Outlook calendar. Its aesthetics are excellent. The problems for me is that the mail part of the Outlook app is clunky and ugly, and the app itself is an enormous memory hog on the phone. Also, no Outlook widget presents an entire month on the Home Screen. Go figure.
@@johnriggs5691 I actually prefer the outlook email! I'm working across multiple operating systems including aneroid and IOS and something that integrates with Microsoft's Todo is very handy (and the MS desktop "board" view is brilliant).
Absolutely agree, that’s why I listened to this video, checking was there even a next week view of appointments. Nothing. Am I supposed to remember an event that I input 2 months ago? Thanks for tip for Calenders 5
Thank you, I really appreciate your videos!
Great video. I wanted to know how to attach an email to a calendar event. For example, I receive a confirmation for an upcoming hotel stay in my email and now I want to add that email to my hotel stay to my calendar event. Thx you again and I really enjoy tour videos, keep them coming.
I love your iPhone videos. You explain things so clearly. Thank you.
This is brilliant, thank you .
Excellent tutorial, looking forward to many more.
Awesome! Love this video!!! Great job!
❤ Your channel has become my must view UA-cam channel for staying current on IOS.
I tried your tip for copying an event from Calendar to Reminders. It did not work in iOS 16. However, I was able to just simply copy and paste it which is a good thing. Thank you for your hard work.
Just want to say you are my favorite teacher, I have learned so much concerning my I phone 14 pro. Thank you very much Sir.
Thank you, that’s great to hear!
Brilliant presentations, learning a lot.
You are the first channel I’ve seen with actual hidden tricks rather than clickbait titles
How does using the Reminders app cf using Alerts within the Calendar? I tend to use the Calendar to alert me to do something, or that a commitment is coming up in 2 hours + travel time, etc. I don’t find Reminders all that user friendly🤷🏼♀️
Thanks, this video is quite useful!
Bloody hell! I would consider my self a seasoned iPhone user but I had no idea about the “drag and drop” function between the different apps! Great video 🫡
New subscriber here. In need of a personal planner I was researching how to devise one in Apple’s native apps. Thank you for the drag and drop info!
This guy is amazing I keep going back watching these videos like 5 or 6 times Learning More and More
Thanks man, I always recognise and appreciate your support! 🙌🏻
Extremely well presented - clear, concise and extremely useful.
I’ve subscribed to the channel to see what other gems are available
Thank you….
The event from photos is super helpful!
Love what you’re doing. 👍🏾
This was really helpful. Big thanks 💪🏼
Great videos, lots of useful tips and more, thanks.
This is amazing. Thank you!
Great information! Well done!
Tom, thanks for the great video. BTW, can you tell me where you got your desk monitor shelf? Have you done a video on your desk setup?
i got some of them . really cool ! thx
Very helpful video. Thank you! 👌🏼
Mind blown. This long-time iPhone user learned some new tricks. Thanks!
Always wanted to add an attachment to an event from my mail, didn’t knew till date.
A friend of mine has recommended me this tutorial. And i couldn't' be more happier
That's great to hear!
Thanks, great info
Omg brilliant 🤩 tips!
Great tips, like dragging notes into appointments. But to be honest and this probably isn’t a good idea, I just use the calendar app for reminders as well.
Me, too. I just set an alert. The reminders copying function is sophisticated, but in this instance, I pick the 2-second click of an alert to save time.
Linking Reminders to Calendars is fantastic, thank you. I hate that Apple don't make this information known more clearly. And I'd really love if we could just get them to create something that would allow us to see reminders, notes and events in one screen. Yes, I can split screen, but managing my day would be a lot easier if I could see all entries in one go rather than switching between 3 apps.
Woah! That part at 1:32 was amazing. I had no idea we could do that. Very cool.

Love your content. Would like to share shortcut in calendar. When making follow up doctors appointment, I found that I can duplicate event by simply holding down on item until pop up screen appears. Choose duplicate and make appropriate changes. No need to re-type names and addresses for the future event.
Very useful thank you
Great video!!!
Thanks!
Your videos on iPhone are informative, interesting and authentic! Your presentation is impressive! Please upload detailed videos on iPhone backup on Windows pc and organising iTunes and of course the best tips for the security of iPhone.
Thank you!
These are great ideas. Quick question will all these work on iPadOS? If they do that is a game changer for me. (I can't see my phone 👓🤣🤣🤣)
Lmao, I had such a huge gripe with the lack of compatibility between notes and calendar: can’t attach a note ! But hey, always a relief to find out it’s human error 🎉😅😊
Personally I prefer Fantastical right now. I hope eventually the stock app will be better but for now, that’s the one I prefer. :)
is fantastical free?
@@ellewilliford6416 If I'm remembering correctly, yes there is the free version. I pay a yearly subscription for a few extra conveniences.
Most powerful review!
Thanks a lot dear Friend
Can you please do and another Apple Mail iOS 16 video. There are new features we need to learn about. Remind me later. Then there is Follow Up and there there is send later. I would love tips and tricks and to actually know the difference between all (3) of these send later features and how to think of them all.
Thanks 🙏 so much. Absolutely love all your videos you a really doing great work.
All genius material!
I find it very frustrating that the iOS version of Calendar only allows “Alert” and “Second Alert” and only with a limited choice of week, days, hours and minutes before The macOS version of Calendar allows an unlimited number of alerts and fully customizable days, hours, minutes before AND after an event. It just doesn’t make sense why the iOS version is so limited. Any tricks for creating more than two alerts in the iOS version of Calendar?
Oh this guys GOOD
Many thanks
Yes the create event can be used from messaging apps too.
Excellent videos, notifications on, cheers ❤.
Top marks for a top cast.. learnt lots
While I like how the calendar can sync across my husband and my phone, I wish we could make templates.
I’ve used WeekCal since iOS 3.1 because it had more features. Been using it ever since. (I’m not trying to plug this app, but it’s like the iOS iCal, but with some bonus features)
Whenever I have a nosebleed, it’s easy to tap from my template library to document it for my doctor. (Medically-necessary)
Working overtime? 1 tap and there it is.
View the entire week, (not just 6am-8pm from each day)
I’m blown away!!!
Love this. Thank you as usual. Also, it’s the accent for me. 😎🥰
As a chronic Samsung phone user who has also carried an iPhone 11 Pro Max daily for over 2 years this video is really useful. Hitherto I’ve really disliked using the iPhone calendar. I would enter the event on my Samsung phone’s calendar and then sync it with my iPhone’s calendar.
All good stuff ... I would love to know if you have a tip or a way of displaying ‘fiscal’ calendar week numbers instead of real world calendar week numbers
Work retail ... so I use it for work purposes and the week numbers it displays are either 4 or 5 weeks off due to the fiscal calendar starting in feb vs Jan
Don’t think you can ... but again ... all good stuff!
I needed this. Somehow I’ve got 7 calandres on my iPhone and I want to consolidate everything into my iCal.
Love the press and hold and switch app function. You have such a calm and trustworthy voice 😀
Great and informative video! I learn something new every time! Sure would like to start my calendar day at 6:00 a.m. instead of 12:00 midnight. Is there a way?
Good stuff! Didn’t realize that to get the “Add attachment” option in calendar you need to be using an iCloud calendar. Bummer.
