To share your Google Calendar, you are provided with an effective tool within the application

Share Google Calendar publicly

If you want to share a Google Calendar, use the browser application. It is not possible to share calendars via the app.

  • Click on the three dots behind the calendar name. Then select “Settings and sharing” from the menu.
  • Look for the Access permissions for appointments option in the calendar customization options. Place a checkmark next to Share publicly. The calendar is now shared
  • Attention: If you activate this option, the calendar will be displayed to all Google users. It can also be found via Google Search.
