Duplicating or Copying an Event

What it does

The Event Actions menu on any event you own provides two quick copy operations: - Duplicate Event: creates an identical copy of the event in the same calendar. - Copy to…: copies the event to a different connected calendar.

How to use it

Duplicating an event

1. Tap an event to open its Detail view.
2. Tap the ⋯ (ellipsis-horizontal) icon → Duplicate Event.
3. A copy of the event is created in the same calendar with all the same fields (title, time, guests, description, location, tags, etc.).
4. The screen returns to the calendar view. The duplicate appears immediately.

Copying to another calendar

1. Tap an event to open its Detail view.
2. Tap the ⋯ icon → Copy to…
3. A calendar picker modal opens listing your connected calendars.
4. Select the target calendar.
5. The event is copied to that calendar. If the target calendar is the same as the source, no copy is made.

When to use each option

• Duplicate is useful for templating, create one "standup" event and duplicate it if you need an ad-hoc version.
• Copy to… is useful when you have separate personal and work calendars and want the same event on both (e.g. a personal appointment that also needs to appear on your work schedule).

Tips & shortcuts

• Duplicated and copied events are independent of the original, editing or deleting one doesn't affect the other.
• Tags from the original event are preserved in both Duplicate and Copy To operations.
