Use the Calendar app to create and edit events, appointments, and meetings.

“Do I have a meeting at 10?”
“Where is my 3:30 meeting?”
Add an event
In day view, tap at the top right.
Fill in the event details.
Enter the title and location of the event, the start and end times, how often it repeats, and so on.
Add an alert
You can set an alert to be reminded of an event beforehand.
Tap the event, then tap Edit at the top right.
In the event details, tap Alert.
Choose when you want to be reminded.
For example, “At time of event,” “5 minutes before,” or another choice.
Note: If you add the address of the event’s location, you’re reminded in time to leave from your current location, based on traffic conditions.
