How do I add the calendar to the home screen on my phone?
Android
Launch Chrome for Android and navigate to the Calendar Page. Tap the menu button, then tap "Add to homescreen." You’ll be able to enter a name for the shortcut, and then Chrome will add it to your home screen.
Apple
Launch the Safari browser on Apple’s iOS and navigate to the Calendar Page. Tap the Share button on the browser’s toolbar — that’s the rectangle with an arrow pointing upward. It’s on the bar at the top of the screen on an iPad, and on the bar at the bottom of the screen on an iPhone or iPod Touch. Tap the "Add to Home Screen" icon in the Share menu.
You’ll be prompted to name the shortcut before tapping the Add button. The shortcut can be dragged around and placed anywhere, including in app folders — just like a normal app icon. When you tap the icon, it will load the calendar in a normal tab inside the Safari browser app. -
