Hi everyone. My name is Rosemarie, founder of TechAble assistive technology. People have asked me if
I can also show how to use Android phone calendar synced with the Google Calendar. So today I'm going
to show you how you can use your Android phone calendar synced with the Google Calendar. And I'm
going to use Galaxy Android phone. okay let's get started. Okay so first open up a calendar
app from your phone. And the way you check if your online calendar is synced with your phone
calendar is, you see these three bars on the top left corner, you just need to tap there. And it
will show all calendars that are synced with your phone calendar. So let me take you through how
you can add an online calendar and sync it with your phone calendar. You need to go to settings
and find accounts and backup, and it's here. So tap it and then click accounts
and here you can add accounts. So you need to click Add Account.
And since I'm going to add a Google Calendar, I need to click Google here.
And I'm going to add a Google Calendar which I use for my church PTA group. So I'll type
the email for the group, then click Next, and enter password ,and click Next, click I agree,
and now my church PTA Google account is added to this phone. Okay and let's go back to the phone
calendar. And I'm going to tap the three bars and here, you can see my church PTA Google Calendar is
added, it's synced here. Okay and now let's add an event to a calendar. To add an event, you
see this plus sign, so just tap the plus sign at the bottom right corner. And type the title of the
event. I'm going to type lunch with my friend and then set the date and time of the event. So I'll
have start time, this Friday at 12. And then end time, I'll say 2:00 p.m. And then, if you scroll
down, here next to the calendar icon, you can see which calendar you want to put or store this event.
And currently, I have the church PTA calendar is shown as the calendar that I like to put this
event to. But if you want to change it to another calendar, you just need to tap this calendar icon,
and then just choose the right Google calendar that you'd like to put your event to. And then, you
can add a reminder. To add a reminder for the event, you can set it by tap next to this bell icon.
For an important event, I usually set up two reminders. So I'm going to set up the first
reminder, one day before. Click Save. And then, to add a second reminder, just tap this plus
button. And then, I'm going to tap Customize and then I'll say 'remind me again two hours
before the event'. And then I'm gonna tap save. So now you can see here, two reminders have
setup. And next to the note icon, you can write down any notes about the event. So for example,
if I need to remember to bring a present for my friend, I can write down 'bring a present' So
I don't forget. And I can see that note when I check the event.
Okay. And then, I usually like to put location for the event. So I can see the address when I
look at the event from the calendar. To put location, just tap next to this location icon
and then you can put the name of restaurant or the address for the place. I'll say... okay
that's good restaurant. And then, now after you put all the information about the new event,
you just need to click Save button here. And here, you can see the new event is now on my calendar.
That's all I prepare for today. Thank you for watching!
