Custom calendar events support the same recurrence patterns as reminders:
Pattern | Step |
|---|---|
Daily | 24 hours |
Weekly | 7 days |
Monthly | 30 days (NOT calendar-month) |
Heads up — Monthly recurrence advances by 30 days, not by calendar month. A "1st of the month" event will drift ~5 days earlier across a year.
End date
Set "Recur until" to cap a recurrence — useful for a temporary placement or a fixed-length programme.
Editing a recurring event
Three options when you open a recurring event:
This occurrence only — edits the single instance you opened. Future occurrences stay on the original schedule.
This and future occurrences — changes apply from this occurrence forwards.
Whole series — edits every instance, past included.
What's NOT supported
Day-of-week patterns ("every Tuesday and Thursday").
Day-of-month patterns ("last Friday of the month").
Custom intervals ("every 3 days").
Note — If you need a complex pattern, create the events individually rather than fighting the recurrence. A workflow that creates a calendar event on a schedule may help — see the Workflows category.
