Manage Your Personal Calendar Settings
Once your calendar is connected, you can personalize how it works in Aptly:
- Calendar Name: Change it anytime to make it easier to find in dropdowns or views.
- Saved Locations, Titles & Descriptions: Add defaults for frequently scheduled events to speed up event creation.
- Defaults: Set which fields you want to auto-populate when creating new events.
Changes won’t auto-save — always click Save after updating settings.
