- Connecting your calendars: an overview
How Dayfolio brings your calendar into the planner — Google Calendar, Microsoft Calendar and iCal/ICS feeds, all on the same planner, read-only, refreshed at every sync.
- Connecting Google Calendar
Connect a Google account to Dayfolio in Step 6, choose which of its calendars to include, and pick where their colors come from. Works with personal Google accounts and Google Workspace.
- Connecting Microsoft Calendar (Outlook, Microsoft 365)
Connect Outlook.com, Microsoft 365 or Exchange Online calendars to Dayfolio with a Microsoft sign-in, what to tell your IT team if approval is needed, and the iCal alternative for work accounts.
- Adding a calendar with an iCal/ICS link
Connect Apple/iCloud, Outlook on the web, a second Google account, Cozi, Nextcloud or any calendar that offers a public iCal (.ics) subscription link, and what such a feed carries into your planner.
- Combining calendars from several accounts
Google, Microsoft and iCal feeds on one planner, calendars from a second Google or Microsoft account, one calendar shared by two people, and how connections relate to planners.
- Calendar colors and hiding events
Where each calendar's color comes from in Dayfolio — the month accent, Google, Microsoft or a custom hex color — how text stays readable on e-ink, and how to keep unwanted events out of the planner with keywords.
- How calendar events appear in each view
What a calendar event looks like on the Day, Week, Month and Year Views of a Dayfolio planner — timed and all-day events, multi-day events, declined invites, recurring meetings and the link to the Meeting Notes page.
- Previewing a day before you sync
The Live Preview at the bottom of Step 6 shows exactly which events Dayfolio would print on a given day — the quickest way to check calendar selections, colors and hidden words without regenerating the planner.
- Calendar events missing, duplicated or on the wrong day
A checklist for when an event doesn't show up in your Dayfolio planner, appears twice, or lands on the wrong day or time — from calendar selection and hidden words to Day View hours, time zone and the planner on the tablet.
- Reconnecting a calendar that stopped updating
What happens when a Google or Microsoft authorization expires, how Dayfolio tells you, and the one-click Reconnect that keeps your calendar selection and colors.
