How calendars work in Calee

Calee can show all your calendars together on your Calee display.

Calee calendars

Calee calendars are created and managed in Calee. They are two-way editable — you can create and edit events in the Calee app or Calee Online Calendar, and optionally in other calendar apps using CalDAV.

Use Calee calendars for events you want to manage inside Calee.

Connected calendars

Connected calendars come from other providers — Google, Apple/iCloud, Outlook, school, sport, roster, booking systems, public holidays, or shared calendar links.

They are added using calendar links and appear on your display alongside your Calee calendars.

Connected calendars are read-only in Calee. To change an event, edit it in the original calendar app.

Calee displays all calendars together, but only Calee calendars are edited in Calee.

Add calendars you already use

Choose your calendar provider first: iCloud Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, or Calendar App Setup for Calee calendars. These calendars will appear on your Calee display.

Connected calendars are read-only in Calee. To edit an event, use the original calendar app.
