Using Apple Calendar with TheyCal
Good news! You can still use TheyCal with Apple Calendar
📱 Already Syncing? You Might Not Know It!
Many Apple Calendar users have already set up syncing with their Google or Microsoft accounts years ago and simply forgot about it. Check your Calendar app settings first—you might already be all set!
How It Works
While TheyCal doesn't directly sync to Apple Calendar, your iPhone, iPad, and Mac can automatically sync with Google Calendar and Outlook. Once you sign up with either Google or Microsoft, events will appear in your Apple Calendar app after the sync completes.
⏱️ Sync Timing
Apple's sync with Google and Outlook calendars can take anywhere from a few minutes to an hour. Don't worry if events don't appear immediately—they will sync automatically in the background.
