Choose a view
Use the view bar to switch among Agenda, Day, Week, Month, Quarter and Year. The compact bar can be enabled under Settings → Display → Button Layout when you want more room for the calendar.
Agenda groups events and reminders by day under a mini month. Day is a single detailed timeline. Week shows a rolling three-day view in portrait and a full week in landscape. Month preserves all-day and multi-day bars. Quarter shows three months; Year gives the longest-range overview.
Week on Week
Week on Week shows one weekday across the weeks, a week per column — every Monday in a row — so you can see which Mondays are already spoken for. Turn it on under Settings → Display → Gestures & Navigation → Week on Week view, and choose which column Selected week keeps in place. On iPhone it lives in the compact view switcher’s menu, so switching it on switches the bar to compact; on iPad it joins the view picker. Swipe sideways for more weeks.
Scrub the compact switcher
With the compact bar on, press the view switcher and slide up without lifting. The views rise above your finger and name where you are going as you pass over them. Lift to land there, or slide back down to leave the view as it was. A press-and-hold on the switcher jumps instead, and names where it landed for a moment above the bar.
The agenda header and Up Next
The agenda’s day header stays pinned as you scroll. While you are resting on your next event it reads Up Next, folding away the meetings already behind you, and it moves on to tomorrow once today is genuinely spent. The agenda opens on today and holds there while the app loads.
Move through dates
Swipe horizontally to move through the current view. Select a date in Month, Quarter or Year to make it active. Use Today to return to the current date.
Pinch behavior is configurable: it can move through the view ladder or change timeline density. Open Settings → Display → Gestures & Navigation to choose the behavior you prefer.
Work directly in the calendar
Select an event for details and actions. In time-based views, drag an event to move it and resize its edge in 15-minute steps. Long-press or use the add control to create an event at a date and time.
Editing or deleting one occurrence of a repeating Google or Microsoft event asks whether you mean This Event Only or All Future Events — from the editor, the event card, an agenda swipe, Month view and a drag in the Day and Week grids, the same question Apple calendars have always answered. Replying to one occurrence of a repeating invitation answers for the whole series.
The same calendar can show weather, moon phases, week numbers, a second time zone and Smart Filter results according to Settings.
Search the schedule
Open the shared Quick Add field and type a name or phrase without a date or command. Results appear from the calendars currently in scope. Select one to view, edit, join, share or navigate to it.
