Connecting Apple iCloud Calendar
Connect with your Apple Account email and an app-specific password.
Steps
You give us your provider’s CalDAV details and a password made just for this connection. Two-way sync works the same as signing in.
- Make sure two-factor authentication is on for your Apple Account; Apple only offers app-specific passwords when it is
- Sign in at account.apple.com, open Sign-In and Security, then App-Specific Passwords
- Create a new password, give it a label you will recognise, and copy it
- Open Calendar, then Calendar Integrations from the settings menu
- Under Connect a Calendar, select Connect on Apple iCloud Calendar
- Enter your Apple Account email address and the app-specific password, then select Connect
Good to know
- Use the app-specific password, not your normal Apple Account password. Your normal password will be refused
What We Can and Cannot See
We can see:
- Events in the calendars on that account, so your appointments show in one place and bookings avoid times you are busy
- If you turn on outbound or two-way sync, we add the appointments, will milestones and video wishes you choose in your sync settings
We cannot see:
- Your email, contacts or files: a CalDAV connection reaches calendars only
- Your password in plain form: we keep the password you give us encrypted and use it only for this connection
How to Disconnect
- Open Calendar, then Calendar Integrations from the settings menu
- Select Disconnect on the connected calendar. We remove the events we added to it where the server still allows, and delete the password we kept
- If you created an app password for us, delete it at your provider too
Troubleshooting
- If the connection is refused, create a fresh app-specific password; Apple revokes them all when you change your main password
