Keeping track of your schedule is important, and sharing your calendar with someone else can make it easier to coordinate plans and stay organized. If you use Google Calendar, syncing your calendar with someone else is simple and can be done in just a few steps. In this article, we will show you how to sync your Google Calendar with someone else in the year 2024.

Step 1: Share Your Calendar

The first step in syncing your Google Calendar with someone else is to share your calendar with them. To do this, follow these easy steps:

1. Open Google Calendar and click on the three dots next to your calendar.
2. Select “Settings and sharing” from the drop-down menu.
3. Scroll down to the “Share with specific people” section and click on “Add people.”
4. Enter the email address of the person you want to share your calendar with and select the level of access you want to give them.
5. Click “Send” to share your calendar with them.

Once you have shared your calendar with someone else, they will receive an email inviting them to view your calendar. They will need to accept the invitation in order to see your calendar.

Step 2: Add Their Calendar

After you have shared your calendar with someone else, the next step is to add their calendar to your own. This will allow you to see their schedule alongside your own. Here’s how to do it:

1. Open Google Calendar and click on the “+” sign next to “Other calendars.”
2. Select “From URL” from the drop-down menu.
3. Enter the URL of the person’s calendar (which they can provide to you).
4. Click “Add calendar.”

Once you have added their calendar, you will be able to see their schedule alongside your own. Any changes they make to their schedule will be reflected in your calendar, and vice versa.

Step 3: Sync Your Calendars

The final step is to make sure that your calendars are synced. This will ensure that any changes made to either calendar are reflected in both calendars. Here’s how to do it:

1. Open Google Calendar and click on the three dots next to your calendar.
2. Select “Settings and sharing” from the drop-down menu.
3. Scroll down to the “Integrate calendar” section and copy the calendar ID.
4. Open the other person’s calendar and click on the three dots.
5. Select “Settings and sharing” from the drop-down menu.
6. Scroll down to the “Integrate calendar” section and paste the calendar ID.
7. Click “Save” to sync your calendars.
