What kind of Calendar to use for families with iOS and Androids devices?

[Kaiser777]

Hi there. I am a very new Droid user. I just dumped my iPhone 5 on my hubby.
I love this phone. Does anyone have a suggestion for a calendar that would sync to
my Mac, iPhones AND the Note 3? I can't get it working. I have several business gmail accounts
that have calendars. Would I have to make yet another "family" account?
Maybe there is another way to sync calendars together?

My family uses gmail and shares the calendar. You could also add the caldev to each device. If you want something simpler, try Cozi. Free, but with pay option as well.

I was not too fond of Cozy.
What is caldev?

We use Google calendar... Syncs to android and iPhone can see it minimally by browser (maybe more? I'll ask my kids, they are the iPhone users). Works great for our family stuff, have been using it for years. You can also view multiple calendar at once (family personal, etc). "business Calendar" ( http://www.appgenix-software.com) is good if you don't like your stock calendar.. It's can show the Google calendar (I used it on my Kindle for example... It might have been called calgoo on there). I really like the stock calendar on the note 3,so I'm only using business Calendar for its month widget since I switched to nova launcher and can't use the stock Samsung widget with it... It's not as pretty as the Samsung stock widget but s already paid for and is not terrible. I use that for a month view and if I want any real calendar work I open the stock app.

I use the stock calendar on my Note 3 and added SmoothSync for Cloud Calendar (in Google PlayStore)...since my wife still has an iPhone and we want to continue to sync all of our calendars, like we did when we both had iPhones. SmoothSync is by Marten Gajda.

As mentioned above, you should be able to use Google Calendar and sync it easily with iPhone calendars. See this support page for more info: https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/151674?hl=en
