How to Connect

Google Calendar is automatically available once you've connected your Gmail account. Since both use the same Google account, there's no extra sign-in required.

After connecting Gmail, head to Settings > Connections and you'll see your Google Calendar listed. From there, choose which calendars you want SuperDuper to monitor.

Choosing Your Calendars

Most people have more than one Google Calendar. You might have a personal calendar, a shared family calendar, and individual calendars for each kid's activities.

In Settings > Connections, toggle on the calendars you want SuperDuper to see. Toggle off the ones you don't. At least one calendar must stay selected.

Tip

If you share a family calendar with your partner, both of you can connect it. SuperDuper will use it to detect conflicts across both parents' schedules.

What You Get

With your calendar connected, SuperDuper can do a few things that make life easier:

  • Conflict detection. SuperDuper flags when two things overlap, like soccer practice and a dentist appointment at the same time.
  • One-tap event adding. When SuperDuper discovers an event from your email, you can add it to your Google Calendar with a single tap.
  • Unified view. See your calendar events alongside email-discovered items, all in one place. Each item shows whether it came from Gmail or Google Calendar, so you always know where the information originated.

Calendar Sync

When you add an event to your calendar from SuperDuper, you'll see a sync status indicator:

  • Synced -- the event is on your Google Calendar.
  • Syncing -- the event is being added. This usually takes just a few seconds.
  • Failed -- something went wrong. SuperDuper will retry automatically, but you can also tap to retry manually.
