How to Connect Your iCloud (Apple) Calendar

Koalendar supports syncing with your iCloud (Apple) Calendar. Connect once, and Koalendar will automatically check for availability and create events—eliminating double bookings and syncing all your appointments seamlessly.

Step 1: Create an App‑Specific Password

Before connecting your iCloud calendar, you'll need to create an app-specific password with Apple. This app-specific password is different from your regular Apple password. Apple requires you to use an app-specific password and to have two-factor authentication enabled to connect to third-party applications like Koalendar

To create an app-specific password:

1. Sign in to https://appleid.apple.com/.

2. Under Security, click on "App-Specific Passwords", add a new password, and click Create

   

   

3. Copy your new App-Specific password

Step 2: Add Your iCloud Calendar to Koalendar

1. Head to your Calendars section in Koalendar. Then, click "Add a calendar account" and select "iCloud Calendar":

2. Enter your iCloud email address and paste in your app-specific password.
3. That's it! You should now see a list of your iCloud calendars in your Calendars area. Toggle on the calendars that you'd like to check for conflicts. You may also wish to update to which calendar new appointments are added to.
