Open a calendar and choose its views

Click a calendar in the nav rail to open it; Main is first. On a phone, use the calendar switcher in the header, or choose Calendar in the menu to return to Main.

The grid shows that calendar and the calendars included in it. Switching calendars does not move or copy events.

Birthdays and Subscriptions calendars open in Month view, and Habits and Travel calendars open in Week view. Other calendars keep the view you were using.

Choose which views a calendar offers

1. Open the calendar's menu in the nav rail and choose Open editor.
2. Under Views, turn Week, Month, or Column on or off. At least one stays on.
3. In Opens in, choose the view the calendar starts in.

A calendar with one view has no view switcher. Main follows your settings in General settings.

Other hours in the same editor sets how the calendar shows the hours outside your day: Show, Collapse, or Hide. Auto uses the calendar type's default, such as every hour for a Travel calendar, and otherwise your Other hours setting in Settings → General.

Manage all your calendars

Point at the Calendars group in the nav rail and choose Edit calendars (the pencil icon) to open the calendar manager. It lists every calendar, including archived ones under Archive. On a phone, choose Manage in the calendar switcher.
