Good simple calendar

[rickluc]

I'm not sure what calendar app I have on my phone now, Samsung calendar? Could someone recommend a better simpler one? Thanks

Google calendar?

I agree, Google Calendar is all I need. Maybe you can tell us what you find overly complex about Samsung's Calendar app -- it would help others make suggestions.

And if you do install another calendar, read this article to avoid any problems: Use caution when changing the Galaxy S7's default calendar sync settings | Android Central

It seems kind of complicated to me. It wants to now something about all day I don't understand that. I want a notification the mornimg of, don't understand how to set that.

When you create a new event in Google Calendar, you can set the time and duration of the event, or you can turn on the "All Day" switch, which is helpful if there's no definite time for the event. All Day events show up at the very top of the day, while timed events will be listed according to their time.

If you make the event an All Day event and then select the Add Notification option, you can set it to notify you on the day of the event at 9 AM (which is what you're asking about), the day before at 5 PM, the day before at 9 AM, or a custom time.

What's the difference between Google Calendar (AD) and Google Calendar? There both available on Google Play.Thanks

Where do you see Google Calendar (AD)? I can't find it in the Play Store website.

The very first app showing when you type calendar is Goggle Calendar with a green initials Ad,move down to the third offered and it Google Calendar

YOu can always just create a reminder by voice and it just does it for you. No need to open the calendar. "Create reminder to pick up dry cleaning on thursday at 9am."

I don't see that. In any case, just pick the one that says Google Calendar (and make sure it's from Google, Inc.).

Another vote for Google Calendar. Any of them are going to have a learning curve. I like that I can access it from my phone or my desktop computer or ANY device as long as you know your Google user name and password. It's online, you can invite others to view it, it's very full featured and a relatively easy learning curve. You can be up and running in no time. As you use it, you'll discover more features.

I use the stock calendar, and don't find it confusing at all.

Same goes for stock Calendar. Since it syncs to Google.

As for the all day thing, any calendar app would ask you about all day. Just set the time you want to be informed.

Same here. It is a basic, easy-to-use app. OP might be better off spending a couple minutes trying to understand it, rather than look for something simpler as I'm not sure if anything simpler exists.

If they made it any simpler, people would complain it is too dumbed down.

Yeah. Even Google Calendar is almost exactly the same.
