slo’s FRIDAY 7/14 poll - Personal Calendar

[Moliphino]

We have a wall calendar at home, but the only thing we really put on there are the reminders to give the dogs their monthly meds.
At work I use Outlook and I put personal appointments and vacations on there, as a reminder to myself and also so it shows me as out of office.

 

[NannyBeBe]

I use my phone calendar, a day planner, and a large wall calendar.

I selected the original calendar on my phone, but I really use the calendar on my iPad. It’s the same calendar app, but I need the larger screen. I don’t use it for much though.

 

[SandyinMonterey]

I have a large desk calendar at home. Everything from everyone goes on there.

 

[BleuB]

I use Apple Calendar. It's easy to make shared calendars with people that I make plans with regularly.

 

[lanejudy]

My work calendar is on Outlook, which I have on my phone. DD has her calendar on her phone/ipad using her school account. DH only uses the family calendar now. The family calendar is through gmail and we all "invite" each other to keep this updated. We do have a wall calendar but it hasn't been written on for a few years now since we went digital. (And that was because I was the only one maintaining the "family" calendar by updating multiple calendars - the kitchen calendar, my work calendar, DH's calendar).

 

[CynBeth]

I do not use a calendar for personal have post it notes or my memory. For work we have a team calendar in the computer we are supposed to put time off and any meeting we accept automatically goes on there and you get a reminder.

 

[E&Cmom]

I mostly use the one on my iPad or I phone. We have a wall one in the kitchen but it mostly for my DDs piano lessons as they alternate. Everything else is in the iPhone one which We can share with everyone in the house.

Digital calender on phone, desktop, laptop, tablet, all sync.

Same.

 

[leebee]

We have a wall calendar in the kitchen and I use the calendar on my laptop. I ALWAYS take an appointment card; the buffer is pretty full in this old brain of mine!

 

[tvguy]

Our master calendar is a pocket calendar that never leaves the kitchen counter. Backup is the calendar that came with our Android phones. Anymore my Doctors don't make your next appointment when you come in for an appointment, they call you back a couple of weeks later for that so the home calendar is the primary record.

 

[Micca]

I don't use calendar. Not because my memory is so great, I just don't have much going on. If I have an appointment or some place I'm supposed to be, it's not likely to slip my mind.

 

[OKW8297]

Phone calendar

 

[unrequited23]

I have a 5 year monthly planner that is notebook size. I use different colored pencils for each family member.

 

[thinkerbell]

Calendar App that syncs to the native app on my phone. Back when I first installed it the native app did not have predictive text or color coding and this did. Everyone has their own color and they all sync to everyone’s devices. A quick glance tells us who has what when. I pretty much use it as my reminder app because I can’t figure out the stupid reminders app. I don’t take appointment cards anymore, I just put appointments in the calendar on the spot. Haven’t used a physical paper calendar in over a decade. Notes is another story, I have them all over the place on whatever happens to be nearby.

Glad to know I‘m not the only one that can’t figure out that stupid reminders app. I tried many times to figure it out and ended up deleting it.

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

I don't know if it's still a thing, but somehow once when I tried to use my iPhone calendar, it saved all my stuff and it was showing up on everybody else in the family's calendar too. I didn't put anything bad or obscene on there thankfully.

 

[flyingdumbo127]

Dad and I are also old fashioned and still use wall and engagement type calendars. Wall calendars, we usually get from the 99 Cent Only Store or Dollar Tree. Engagement Calendars vary on pricing of Black Friday weekend. The day after Christmas has traditionally been when most calendars go on sale for half price. I do always get the same engagement calendar to be sure Christian holidays that are important to me are listed.

Same. I am the troubleshooter for all the phones, iPads and watches in this house. I’m the person you ask “what setting for” and have shown people how to use functions they didn’t even realize were there but this damn app I can’t figure out for the life of me. Makes. Me. Crazy.

 

[kanerf]

In addition to my iPhone calendar, I keep a spreadsheet that has all of my travels in it.

 

[disney4us2002]

Google calendar for work and for personal. It links to my work cell and my personal cell. I do love printed wall calendars because the pics are so beautiful but I don't write on them.
