CHAPTER 13: Managing Your Calendar

TIP: If you use your DROID’s Calendar app often, you can also create a Calendar widget (see
Chapter 6: “Organize your Home Screens: Icons and Widgets”); this Calendar widget will show
today’s date and any upcoming appointments for the day.
If you maintain a calendar on your computer or on a website such as Google Calendar ,
you can synchronize or share that calendar with your DROID (see Chapter 3: “Sync Your
DROID with Your Google Account” and Chapter 4: “Other Sync Methods” for more
information on syncing).
After you set up the calendar sync, all of your PC, Mac or online calendar appointments
will be synced with your DROID calendar automatically, based on your sync settings
(see Figure 13–1).

Viewing Your Schedule and Getting Around
The default view for the Calendar app shows your Day view. This view shows you at a
glance any upcoming appointments for your day. Appointments are shown in your
calendar (see Figure 13–2). If you happen to have multiple calendars set up on your
computer, such as
Work and Home , then appointments from the different calendars will
display as different colors on your DROID calendar.
