Do you know you can connect Google Calendar to your android phone? Since you don't always sit around your PC, and when you could want to access your calendar you can't do it off your PC. Picture that you've parked your automobile in morning, but you'll have to take it by 5pm to pave way for cleaning in the streets or you are served with a ticket. Of course, it's likely that you'd forget to add an item such as "Move my automobile by 5pm" to your calendar, which means you have to wait until you are at your PC to add the reminder.
There are a few ways to synchronize Google Calendar to your android phone, regardless if you own an advanced smartphone or a basic "dumb" handset.
Sync with android phones. If you own an Android phone, then is an easy one. Android works effortlessly with Google Calendar; you only need to log in to your Google account right at your Android device, and it will automatically configure your phone's calendar to sync with Google Calendar. Any occasions you add from your android phone will automatically synchronize with GCal wirelessly.
If you own an iPhone, BlackBerry, ZTE Blade V880, or Windows Mobile phone, syncing your phone's calendar with Google Calendar is equally easy when you make use of free Google Mobile Sync tool for your specific phone. Just go to the Google Sync page and proceed with the setup instructions for your phone.
Add Events Via SMS. Don't have a trendy
smartphone? No hitch, you can still obtain event notifications, add events or even check your calendar from any device that supports SMS messages.
First, open your Google Calendar settings and link your phone with GCal. Select Settings, Calendar Settings, Mobile Setup, and proceed with Google's instructions for authenticating your phone. Once your phone number authenticated, GCal will send you event notifications through e-mail or SMS.
You can even include an SMS reminder as your default notification schemes, which you'll always get notifications for various upcoming events, despite the location you're at, providing you've carried your phone.
After you've linked your phone's number with your GCal account, you can check your schedule including creating new events by sending text messages to Google Calendar's GVENT (48368) number. For example if you need today's schedule, just text "day" and send it to GVENT.
Better yet, you can make new events by texting GVENT, and the good thing is that it supports the similar plain-language input the GCal's Quick Add button employs. For example if you text GVENT "Move my automobile at 5:30pm," Google Calendar will convert that into a new event on your calendar.
