This article explains how Calendar helps your family create, view, filter, and manage shared events.
Overview
Calendar is the shared schedule for your family. Events can include one or more family members, and each family member's color helps show who is involved.
Calendar can also show related family information, such as tasks with due dates, Meal Plan items, birthdays, holidays, and supported external calendars.
Calendar views
| View | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Family View | A shared view of each family member’s schedule, so everyone can quickly see what is happening across the family. |
| Day | A close look at one day. |
| 3-Day | A focused view of the next few days, useful for short-term family planning. |
| Week | A broader view of the week. This is the default planning view in some versions. |
| Month | A full-month view for longer-range planning. |
| Agenda | A compact list of upcoming events. |

Filter what you see
Calendar filters can help you focus on the right information. You may be able to filter by family member and by schedule type, such as regular events, tasks, Meal Plan items, birthdays, or holidays.
These view settings apply to your account. They do not change what other family members see.
External calendars
Nori can connect with supported external calendars. Availability may vary by platform and app version, but supported options may include Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, and Outlook.
You can manage connected calendars from Calendar or Settings when this option is available.
Timezone and holidays
Calendar uses your device or account timezone to show dates and times. Holiday calendars may depend on your region or timezone.
A note about colors
Event colors follow family member colors. This makes it easier to see who is part of an event. Using too many separate event-type colors can make the calendar harder to scan.
