How do I add a calendar from a link or a file?

Many calendars can be subscribed to by link: a school, a club, a rental on Airbnb or Booking.com. And many bookings come with a small calendar file, for example a flight or a hotel. Both go into your year.

A calendar by link

1. Click the + next to your calendar tabs.
2. Click Calendar from link or file. The tab Link is open.
3. Paste the link of the calendar. The provider gives it to you, usually under “Subscribe”, “Export” or “Share calendar”. It starts with webcal:// or https://.
4. Enter a Name and click the button to add the calendar.

The calendar becomes a tab of its own. AnnuCal reads it and keeps it up to date. Its entries are read-only.

Single events from a file

A file is not a subscription and does not become a calendar. Its events go into a calendar you already have.

1. In the same window, click the tab File.
2. Drag the ICS file into the field, or choose the file.
3. Under Into calendar, pick the calendar the events belong to.
4. AnnuCal shows the events it found. Confirm to add them.

Faster on the computer: drag the ICS file anywhere onto AnnuCal and let go.

If the same file comes again after a rebooking, AnnuCal updates the event instead of adding it twice. A stay from arrival to departure becomes one bar across the days.

Remove a linked calendar

Open Calendar from link or file again. Under Already in the plan every linked calendar has Disconnect. That removes the calendar and its entries from AnnuCal. Nothing changes at the provider.
