Create multi-day events and move events

Touch and hold a date on the calendar and drag to create an event that spans several days in one go. To move an existing event, touch and hold it in the list and pick another day. If you move it by mistake, you can undo it right away.

Create a multi-day event

  1. Step 1. Touch and hold the first day, then drag to the last day

    On the expanded calendar in the Calendar tab, touch the date the event starts on and wait a moment. When the cell turns lightly shaded, it's ready. If you move your finger right away, the calendar scrolls instead, so hold still until it's shaded.

    Without lifting your finger, drag sideways and the dates you pass over are shaded too. Drag down a row to continue into the next week, and drag back to shrink the range. Dragging from the last day back to the first sets the same range.

  2. Step 2. Lift your finger and type a title

    When you lift your finger, the new event box slides up, and the date chip at the top shows the range you picked. Type a title and tap Add to add it to the calendar as a bar across those days.

    Tap Details to open the edit screen with the same range and set more details. If you lift your finger without dragging, a new event box opens for just that day.

Move an event to another day

  1. Step 3. Tap the date, then touch and hold the event in the list

    Tap the date that has the event you want to move. The calendar folds into that one week, and the day's events open in a list below. Touch and hold the event's row, and the calendar expands again with a Tap the day to move it to bar at the top.

    A short tap opens the Edit and Delete buttons instead.

  2. Step 4. Tap the new date. Undo if you moved it by mistake

    Tap the date you want, and the event moves there. The cell it moved to flashes once. For a multi-day event, the date you tap becomes the start date and the range keeps its length. The time, reminders and owner don't change either. To stop, tap Cancel at the right end of the bar. On Android, you can also press Back.

    After the move, a message like Moved to Oct 8 stays at the bottom for 5 seconds. Tap Undo during that time to send it back to its original date. If the other person changed the date of the same event or deleted it before you undo, nothing is overwritten and you're told the undo couldn't be done.

Good to know

  • The calendar doesn't scroll on its own while you drag, so you can only pick days that are on screen. To reach a later day, tap Details and change the End date.
  • Touching and holding a repeating event doesn't move it. Instead, To change a repeating event, edit it instead appears. Tap the event and change the date in Edit.
  • Anniversaries, to-dos and external calendar events can't be moved by touching and holding them in the list.
  • You can move events the other person created in the same way, as long as they're events you can edit.
  • If the calendar is folded to one week, tap the selected date again to expand it.
