CalDAV-Sync is a CalDAV client for Android to synchronize events. Due to its implementation as sync adapter it integrates seamlessly with the default calendar app. Please read the CalDAV-Sync FAQ first if you have any questions. Please see CalDAV-Sync settings for brief explanation of CalDAV-Sync's settings.

This is a list of servers supported by CalDAV


general setup instructions

With most servers it is sufficient to enter just server name (and port number) into the "Server name or URL" field.

Examples

  • caldav.example.com
  • caldav.example.com:8443

CalDAV-Sync will try several common path names to find your calendars.

In some cases the app can not find your calendars. This may happen if you installed your server in a custom location (i.e. a sub path) or if you're running other web services on the same host that stops auto-discovery. In such cases just give the app the path to your principal home or your calendar home.

Examples

  • caldav.example.com/principals/
  • sogo.example.com:8443/SOGo/dav/
  • caldav.example.com/davical/caldav.php/

If you want to sync a calendar that belongs to another user and that is not linked to your calendar home, enter the full path to the calendar.

Example

  • cal.example.com/caldav.php/someusername/somecalendarname/

You should always check Use SSL according to your server's configuration.
