This article explains how to connect iCloud Calendar, Google Calendar, or Outlook Calendar to Nori.

Overview

Connected calendars let you sync selected calendars from your existing accounts with Nori.

You can connect multiple calendar accounts, including personal, work, school, and shared accounts. After connecting an account, you can choose which individual calendars inside that account should sync with Nori.

Nori currently supports:

• iCloud Calendar
• Google Calendar
• Outlook Calendar

Before you start

• Sign in to Nori in the app or on the web.
• Make sure you can sign in to the calendar account you want to connect.
• Decide which calendars you want to sync with Nori, such as a personal calendar, work calendar, school calendar, shared family calendar, or holiday calendar.
• You can connect more than one calendar account.
• A shared Google Calendar can be synced to the same Nori family through one family member at a time.

Connect an iCloud Calendar

iCloud Calendar uses a different connection method from Google Calendar and Outlook Calendar.

Before connecting iCloud Calendar, you need to turn on two-factor authentication for your Apple Account and create an app-specific password for Nori.

Create an app-specific password

1. Open the Apple Account website in a browser.
2. Sign in with your Apple Account email address and password.
3. Complete the verification step if Apple sends a code to your trusted device or phone number.
4. Open Sign-In & Security.
5. Select App-Specific Passwords.
6. Select Generate an app-specific password.
7. Enter Nori as the label.
8. Select Create.
9. Copy the app-specific password shown on the screen.

Keep this password available until you finish connecting iCloud Calendar in Nori.

Connect iCloud Calendar in Nori

1. Open Settings in Nori.
2. Tap Connected calendars.
3. Tap Add Calendar.
4. Select iCloud Calendar.
5. Enter the email address for your Apple Account.
6. Enter or paste the app-specific password you created for Nori.
7. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the connection.
8. Choose the iCloud calendars you want to sync.
9. Tap Done to save your selection.

If you cannot connect iCloud Calendar

• Make sure you use an app-specific password instead of your regular Apple Account password.
• Check that you entered the correct Apple Account email address.
• Create a new app-specific password and try again.
• If you revoke the app-specific password in your Apple Account settings, create a new one before reconnecting iCloud Calendar.

Connect a Google Calendar

Google Calendar can be connected by signing in to your Google account and allowing Nori to access your calendars.

Connect Google Calendar in Nori

1. Open Settings in Nori.
2. Tap Connected calendars.
3. Tap Add Calendar.
4. Select Google Calendar.
5. Choose the Google account you want to connect.
6. Sign in to your Google account if prompted.
7. Review the permission request and allow Nori to access your calendar.
8. Choose the Google calendars you want to sync.
9. Tap Done to save your selection.

After the connection is complete, the Google account will appear on the Connected Calendars page.

Shared Google Calendars

A Google Calendar can be shared with multiple people. However, within the same Nori family, each Google Calendar can only be synced once.

For example, two family members may both have access to the same shared Google Calendar. Only one of them needs to select that calendar for syncing in Nori.

If another family member later selects and syncs the same Google Calendar:

• The previous family member’s sync for that calendar will stop.
• The calendar will continue to sync through the most recently selected account.
• The calendar and its events will still be visible to everyone in the Nori family.
• Everyone in the Nori family can still create events in that calendar through Nori, and those events will sync back to Google Calendar.

This helps prevent duplicate copies of the same Google Calendar from appearing in your family calendar.

Connect an Outlook Calendar

You can connect a personal Outlook, Hotmail, Live, work, or school calendar account to Nori.

Some work or school accounts may have additional restrictions set by the organization.

Connect Outlook Calendar in Nori

1. Open Settings in Nori.
2. Tap Connected calendars.
3. Tap Add Calendar.
4. Select Outlook Calendar.
5. Sign in to the Microsoft account you want to connect.
6. Review the permission request and allow Nori to access your calendar.
7. Choose the Outlook calendars you want to sync.
8. Tap Done to save your selection.

After the connection is complete, the Outlook account will appear on the Connected Calendars page.

If you cannot connect a work or school Outlook account

Some work or school Outlook accounts may not allow third-party calendar apps to connect.

This is usually controlled by your organization’s Microsoft or IT administrator, rather than by Nori.

You can try one of the following:

• Ask your IT administrator to approve Nori for your organization.
• Connect a personal Outlook, Hotmail, or Live account instead.
• Connect a Google Calendar account if your organization uses Google Workspace.

Manage connected calendars

You can update your calendar selection at any time.

1. Open Settings → Connected calendars.
2. Tap the account you want to manage.
3. Review the calendars under Select calendars to sync.
4. Select or unselect calendars as needed.
5. Tap Done to save your changes.

Only calendars marked Syncing will be included in your Nori calendar.

Important notes

• You can connect multiple iCloud, Google, and Outlook accounts.
• It may take a short moment for newly selected calendars and events to appear in Nori.
