Name the app: Do you drive a Tesla? Then your calendar won’t show up in the car unless you sync Office 365 with the Android calendar. Almost everywhere else, you will have the same problem. For example, if you use a Wear OS watch, you will see that the notifications are a little useless without it. And if you disagree with me, don’t bother posting a comment because I’ll delete it as this is MY BLOG and I say whatever I want here.Īnyways, back to why: The thing is a lot of integration scenarios in Android require your calendar to be synchronized there. Outlook’s calendar not only looks much better, it’s functionally so much easier to use than the built in Android calendar. “Why would you want to synchronize the calendar from Office 365 into Android, if Outlook has a great calendar built in?” But when I use Android phones, I find this endless frustration of trying to sync the calendar from Office 365 into the Android’s native calendar. Take a moment to review our comparison pages to get a better idea of what DejaOffice can do for you.If you’re like me, your life is managed in Office 365. The Outlook app nor the Native Contacts\Calendar app support the level of data and settings DejaOffice can achieve. DejaOffice has been designed specifically to give you more fields, better sorting, better grouping and easy use of your Outlook Color Categories for Contacts, Calendars, Tasks and Notes. Google sync offer a direct sync to the Native Contacts\Calendar app of your device, using DejaOffice app will always offer a more complete sync of your data. Information added to Google Calendars will now sync to the corresponding Outlook Category and vice-versa. To do this go to Categorize > All Categories.Īny new categories will say "(not in Master Category List)." Select a category and click "New." to pick a color and save the category to your Master Category List. If there are any Google Calendars that do not have corresponding Outlook Categories, CompanionLink will create them, but they do not get added to the Master Category List. Repeat steps 1-3 for each Outlook Category that you wish to sync.
Name the Google Calendar the same as your Outlook Category.Select the arrow next to "My calendars" and Create New Calendar.Open Google Calendar in your web browser.Return to the main menu of CompanionLink.įor each Outlook Category that you wish to sync, you will need a corresponding Google Calendar with the same name.Ensure the box to Create Sub-Calendars in Outlook in not checked.Under "Please select which Google Calendars you would like to synchronize" that you have, either select All Calendars or Selected Calendars.Note: If any of the calendars in the Google Calendar list are marked Read-Only, we will be unable to sync events added to this calendar in Outlook as this type of Google calendar does not allow additions from anywhere but the source.If you add records to these Calendars in Outlook they will sync to the Google Calendar of the same name. You should now see new Outlook Calendars with the same names as the selected Google Sub-Calendars.(For instructions on setting up CompanionLink to Sync with Google please Click Here)
