Chapter 7. Calendar
OF ALL THE WAYS you can use your Samsung Galaxy S II to keep track of your life, the calendar may be the most important. Need to remember the meeting this afternoon, the dinner date tonight, the tennis game tomorrow morning? Forget paper-based calendarsâthe Galaxy S II puts them to shame.
Better still, Galaxy S IIâs calendar is actually Googleâs Calendar, so whether youâre looking at your calendar on your Galaxy S II or on your PC, you see the exact same thing, because the Galaxy S II syncs with Google Calendar. So no matter where you are, you know where you need to be today, tomorrow, and beyond.
Using the Calendar
TO RUN THE CALENDAR, tap the calendar icon in the Apps Menu. The Calendar immediately loads. Youâre looking at events imported from Google Calendar, so if youâre already using Google Calendar, you see your appointments instantly. If youâve never used Google Calendar, you see a blank calendar.
Note
You can also get to the calendar is via the Calendar widget on the Productivity pane. The widget shows you todayâs current appointment (or the next dayâs appointments). Tap it to go to that dayâs Agenda view or an event, if you tapped an event (see Adding Widgets, Folders, Shortcuts, and Wallpaper for details).
