Question

The calendar app on Android can merge multiple separate calendars: local phone calendar, Google calendars, etc.

How can I add a new such calendar to the Android phone? I want to dynamically generate the events in that calendar without accessing any online resource like Google.

Edit: I’d like to support phones with Android 1.5 and 2.3.4. I’ll probably get an update to 4.0 for the newer phone someday but who knows when that will be…

Answer 1

I’ve found this link that discusses accessing the Calendar content provider on phones before 4.0.

Basically you just have to know the URI strings for the provider:

• content://calendar for Android < 2.2
• content://com.android.calendar for Android 2.2+.
