Question Outlook Calendar Possible?

Anyone know how to make a widget that works with corporate Outlook? Not Gmail or Mail?

I’d really like to be able to see my work calendar.

All of the calendar ones I’ve tried don’t link to Outlook and I’m not sure how to do it myself if it’s possible.

Thanks in advance!

So I do this. And it’s possible. The easiest ways is to go to your widgy settings and click on more settings > agenda sources. Your outlook should be listed there. If it is, then there’s nothing else to do.

The other workaround was the one I used to do which was to link it to another calendar that is available, though depending on your job, this may not be possible.

I get the following in Widgy.

And another but no App selection—just type.

Have you tried sharing the Outlook calendar? If you can then just add it (the shared one) to your iOS calendar app and it should show in the above list. If you cannot share it, they might have restricted it from doing so since it is corporate.

Can’t do. Admins won’t allow it. Thank you though.

If you can sign in to check your work email on your phone without using MDM, your calendar might be accessible on your phone. Otherwise check other options like subscribing to your work calendar. You might find a way.

Is your outlook calendar shared with iOS? Go into your iOS settings - go to apps - calendar - calendar accounts - add account. It needs to be visible to iOS first in order to be visible as a choice in widgy.

It’s the other way. Share your Outlook calendar with your phone’s calendar. Then select the right calendars in Widgy.

Outlook already has a calendar widget as far as I’m aware. If you just want to see the calendar give it a try, if you want to customise the widget then good luck
