what Simple Calendar app version are you using?

tibbi avatar Aug 19 '19 13:08 tibbi

I am using 6.5.4 simple calendar

mkching88 avatar Aug 19 '19 16:08 mkching88

try upgrading to the latest one 6.5.7. Anyway, even if you create just a simple one-time event with 1 reminder, it still doesnt work?

I upgraded it into latest version but the "reminder" created in Google cannot be sync either. General events is ok and no problem, but just "reminder" failed

Its very important features in Google calendar which i use everyday. Please includes in Simple Calendar

I found that the "Reminder" category is missing under Google account in Caldav Setting > Select Calendar to Sync

seems to work just fine to me. So you are using Google Calendar itself for syncing events between your device and the servers, right? Not DAVx5 or some other app.

Just between my device and Google. I meant Reminder is one of the event type like attached pictures:

I have an reminders on 28th Aug, but cannot findvin simplecalendar. Other event type synchronization is no problem. Its strange and please help

@tibbi @mkching88 the google calendar has it's own "reminders" feature. Not only "reminder for event", but the specific calendar named "reminders":

These are not regular events. They more like combination of regular event and "todo". They have time to fire and "done" button. If not marked as done, they will get into "daily reminders" (type changed to all day) and they carried to every new day if not marked as "done":

right thanks, I didnt notice that... It is a whole different issue then.

I hope this can be done soon....

By the way, as alternative it may be possible to display "due date" of tasks from device on the calendar. The tasks itself can be managed by other app, but the main feature of "reminders" from my point of view is that they are visible at the same calendar as regular events.

I would be also interested in this feature

Hey, I'm a new user, this [missing] feature is my biggest deal-breaker with the calendar app (bit I still use it!)...
