Google Home and Calendars

Needsomehelp — Mon, 04 Oct 2021 05:28:46 GMT

Just bought a google home max and can’t figure out how to get it to recognize my iPhone and yahoo calendars. When I ask it what is on my calendar it will only tell me about the events I added in my google calendar. I’m not ready to move everything to a google calendar.

Hello @Needsomehelp

Thanks for reaching out! Welcome to the Google Nest/Home family! I understand your concern, calendars are a very important feature. I would be more than happy to help answer your question.

Unfortunately, your iPhone and Yahoo calendars are not being recognized by your Google Nest Hub Max because they are not supported. Below is a list of supported and supported calendars.

Supported Google Calendars:

Main Google Calendar of the owners of the Google Accounts and voices linked to a speaker or display.
Shared and Family Google Calendars (additional Google Calendars created by or shared with owners of the Google Accounts and voices linked to a speaker or display). This excludes the unsupported Google Calendars listed below.

Unsupported calendars:

Other Google Calendars – Birthday, weather, and holiday calendars.
Google Workspace Calendars (formerly G Suite) – Calendars created from a Google Workspace domain.
Imported calendars – Calendars imported from URLs and iCal calendars.
Calendars that don’t have read or write access to events. For example, a calendar with only free or busy information.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns, thanks!
