Plain answers about sharing a calendar, keeping iCloud, Google and Outlook in one view on iPhone and iPad, widgets, and planning around the weather.
Widgets and the Home Screen
6- Calendar events on Apple Watch
Check calendar events and Google Tasks on Apple Watch. Compare the watch app, complications, seven-day coverage and phone calendar selection before changing data.
- Upcoming events on the Home Screen
Choose a Cloud Calendars widget for upcoming events, the date or weather.
- A countdown to your next meeting
Use Cloud Calendars Live Activity for a future meeting, check stale event details and keep alerts separate from the countdown on your Lock Screen.
- Calendar on the Lock Screen
Distinguish Live Activity from Lock Screen widgets and notification previews. Check availability, privacy and freshness before relying on a calendar glance.
- Choose a widget layout
Compare date-and-weather widgets with medium and large event lists. Choose readable content without assuming that a large widget is a complete week view.
- Calendar information in StandBy
Set up iPhone StandBy, check the widgets your device offers and separate a bedside date display from a complete tomorrow agenda or a guaranteed alarm.
