Hi all, I am confused. What is the vo calendar and is it different than the calendar you see on the first screen? Also, I want to put appointments into my calendar and then have an alert sound at a time that I specify before the event. Can I use Siri to do these things? And, can I use Sire to do them up to say, a month in advance, complete with alerts?

So last night I entered an event in Vo calendar. When I went to the native calendar that event had been entered there too. So it appears the two apps do sync with each other without the user having to do anything. The only time you will have to "sync" your appointments is when you first begin using VO calendar. I hope this helps.
