Google Calendar is limited to manually importing and exporting events and for Outlook you can only download appointments. Like Cozi, Famjama displays a calendar color-coded by family member. The best thing about Google Calendar is that you can create multiple calendars in one app with your Gmail or Google account. Google Calendar integrates with every other application available in the cloud (SaaS) and the desktop market. It is the official (default) calendar for the Android phones and other Android devices. The Mini-Month calendar is available on the mobile apps and from Cozi on the web. Using the Mini-Month calendar is a fast and efficient way to select a date in the future for adding an appointment or viewing data. The Mini-Month calendar also allows you to view the whole month in the free version of Cozi mobile apps.
Our family almost couldn't function without Cozi. The challenge of managing everyone's commitments and orchestrating everything needed to pull that off has only compounded as our kids have gotten older. You know the drill – we are either chauffeurs or gatekeepers ;)
Now how to do get visibility to your Cozi calendar in the tools we use everyday? Sure you can get the Cozi app, but I often forget to check the Cozi calendar when I am making my own appointments.
So to document (with pictures!) this for my family, and anyone else in need of simple instructions, here ya go.
Cozi iCAL?
iCAL? Its just a fancy acronym for 'Internet Calendar'.
Cozi provides your calendar(s) as iCAL. This means we can integrate Cozi in our other devices & programs.
NOTE: This provides a READ-ONLY view of your Cozi calendar. To edit your Cozi Calendar you still have to use the Cozi app or website. Not a big deal for us – my kids are responsible for entering their own 'appointments' using the Cozi app. Yeah we're starting them early ;)
