Before you begin

Setting Result

Calendar type Harmonise

Before you begin

This creates a calendar in Harmonise. It does not create a new calendar in Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple Calendar, or another external provider. To use an existing external calendar, follow the relevant connection or import workflow for a connected provider account, CalDAV, an ICS import, or an ICS subscription.

On mobile

  1. Open Settings > Calendars.
  2. Choose Edit.
  3. Under Calendar Order, choose New Calendar.
  4. Enter University, choose a blue colour, then choose Create to add the draft calendar.
  5. Review the draft calendar and choose the screen-level Save to save all calendar changes.

Name and colour

Use a short name that describes the plans inside the calendar. Colour helps distinguish the calendar and its items across Harmonise planning views; it does not change Event or Task behaviour. You can rename or recolour a Harmonise calendar later.

What happens next

After it is saved, the calendar becomes available as a destination when creating Events and standalone Tasks. Choose Set Default to make it the preferred calendar in creation flows that use your calendar default. Standalone Tasks still require a calendar to be selected or supplied by the screen where they are created. Changing the default affects future creation choices only and does not move existing Events or Tasks.

You can reorder calendars to control their order in the Home calendar dropdown.

Troubleshooting

  • If New Calendar is hidden, choose Edit first.
  • If the new row says Unsaved on mobile, choose the screen-level Save.
  • If saving fails, keep the editor open and retry. If you are offline, reconnect first.
  • If the calendar does not appear on Home, check the Home calendar filter and, for a connected calendar, its Hide or Show setting.
