Move between dates

Jump to a date, bookmark a view, and mark a day.

Move between dates

Use the arrows in the top bar to move through the visible range. Choose Today to return to the current date, or open the date picker to jump to another date.

On desktop, ⌥T returns to today, and ← and → move by the visible range. Calendar shortcuts do not apply while you are typing in a field.

To go to a day by typing it, such as oct 20 or next friday, press ⌘K and choose Go to. See Use the command menu.

Mini calendar

The mini calendar in the sidebar shows the current month with the active week highlighted. Click a date to go to it, or page through months.

A thin colored bar under a date means it has events. Small colored dots mark dates inside a period.

Bookmark a view

Bookmark the URL to return to the same calendar, view, and date. The URL does not give anyone else access. To let someone see your schedule, share the calendar.

Mark a day

A mark labels a day with a color and an optional name, and the Marked days widget shows how far away it is. See Mark a day.
