Still nothing. Thanks for trying. I’ll keep playing with Fantastical to see if I can get it to work for me. I may have some questions!
Alex or others, I’ll still welcome other suggestions for the native Calendar app, if there’s anything to suggest. Thanks to all, Keith From: viphone@googlegroups.com [mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Richard Turner Sent: Friday, May 29, 2015 3:13 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: In iOS Calendar for adding a future event, what's the best way when the event is several months in the future? I have not used the native calendar app for a long time. I opened it and it proved to me why Fantastical 2 is a superior calendar. Try this with the native app: 1. Get to your desired month. 2. Make sure where it says "list button" it is not selected. If it says selected, double tap and it will not say selected. 3. Find your day and double tap. 4. Turn the rotor to events and flick up or down. If that doesn't help, buy Fantastical 2 which will access all your events from the native calendar, etc. That is my very biased and jaded opinion. Feel free to ignore me. I'm spending too much time fighting with other technology today, so probably have a more negative reaction to the Calendar than it deserves.

Yes, I’m in the month view. I go to July and make sure VO speaks Selected List button. I go to July 13, and VO speaks 2 Events. I double tap. I go to the area you suggested. VO speaks No Events. I flick back once, and get the last day of July, July 31. Still stumped.

Keith, Are you in the month view when you double tap on the date with the events? If you are, then you will find them at the bottom of the screen just under the last week of the month. The month view is like a wall calendar with each week across the screen, so the month takes about 5 lines. Then under the last Sunday of the month if you have the weeks starting on Sunday, you will find your events for that day.

Thanks, Alex. I listened to your very well done podcast twice, and followed along. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get it to work by any of the 3 methods on either go around, with Selected List Button, then double tap on a date with stated event, then touch screen; unselected List , double tap, touch screen, and use rotor; or Selected List button, touch screen, and change to Headings. The date I chose had 2 events spoken, but nothing was there. VO simply announced No Events or Heading Not Found. I’m running iOS 8.3 on an iPhone 6. Could there be a setting somewhere that’s not right I’m stumped. Also, I tried Fantastical. It certainly appears promising, but it seemed somewhat erratic on my first try – Jumping from May 2015 to December 2014 with a simple flick, and somehow deleting an event from a week later than the date I had selected. Could be operator error, too. I’ll keep trying, but would like to get the native iOS app working. Thanks, Keith ?

The event did appear, but it did so silently. :) Right below the grid of days you'll find a list of all events for the selected day, right on the same screen as the grid. I did a podcast on the two possible list modes, because the feature is great, but confusing.

Thanks. I went back to double-check the event I added, found the date, it said 1 Event Button, Double tap too View Events on this Day. When I double tap, I get no events but it states, August, Selected List Button, Search Button, Add Button, Today Button, Calendars Button, Inbox Button. Couldn’t figure out what to do from there. Any guidance? Again, thanks in advance.

If you're in Month View, so you can see all the days of the month on the screen, just touch a day and use three-finger swipes up or down to move month by month. This should get you to the right place relatively fast. Some people also like the Fantastical app for this purpose, since you can type something like "appointment on November 4 ant 6" and it will figure out when the event is automatically.

What's the best way to schedule an event for several months out? Any other tips on efficient use of Calendar appreciated, also. Thanks in advance.
