## Features

### Share and collaborate around calendar accounts

Calendar accounts can be connected as personal or shared with other members of your organization. To share a calendar account simply click the **Share this account** button at the top of the calendar account settings page.

{% hint style="warning" %}
All calendars in an account will be shared based on the account's sharing settings.
{% endhint %}

### Get reminders

Never miss an upcoming appointment. You can add one or multiple reminders per event. Calendar reminders appear in the **Activity feed** -- click the bell icon at the top of the sidebar to open it.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="https://3242897856-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F1If7JwIQhfz5wGM9LiIU%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-b8a17f13e4a95c737ede2bd23dd8f44cc5088556%2Ffeatures-reminder.png?alt=media" alt="Custom event reminder" width="375"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

An orange dot on the bell icon indicates unread calendar reminders, and adds 1 to your app icon badge count (regardless of how many reminders there are). To opt out, open the Activity feed settings and uncheck **Unread** for **Calendar reminders**.

### Reply to invites and spot potential conflicts

Missive Calendar supports regular `.ics` invites attached to emails. It displays them beautifully in an agenda-style preview that helps you to know if you're available or not.

### Create events

Create new events directly from the calendar.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="https://3242897856-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F1If7JwIQhfz5wGM9LiIU%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-58eed9b807a0e87415ff8f13d8ea104639e55b1a%2Ffeatures-create-event.png?alt=media" alt="Create new events from Missive"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

You can also create an event from an email with the email recipients as attendees. To do it simply use <kbd>⌘/Ctrl</kbd> + <kbd>E</kbd> or click the message **... context menu** and select **New calendar event with recipients**.

When adding guests, you can search for individual teammates, teams, or organizations from your Missive workspace — selecting a team or organization adds all its members at once.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="https://3242897856-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F1If7JwIQhfz5wGM9LiIU%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-2d462a891b67b35b887905941ef6b84e7a9057f4%2Ffeatures-email.png?alt=media" alt="Create new events from Missive" width="277"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

### Move and resize events

Drag any editable event to move it to a different time or date. In the day and week views, drag it vertically to change the time, or across columns to move it to another day. Drag it to the edge of the calendar to navigate to the previous or next period automatically.

To resize a timed event, drag the handle at the top or bottom of the event block. To resize an all-day event, drag the handle at either end.

Press <kbd>Escape</kbd> at any time during a drag to cancel and revert the event to its original time.

When moving a recurring event, Missive asks whether to reschedule just this occurrence or all occurrences.

{% hint style="info" %}
Drag-and-drop is not available for snoozed conversations, task due dates, or multi-day events in the agenda view.
{% endhint %}

### Add a video call meeting link

When creating an event via a Google account you will be able to create Google Meet video call. When creating an event via a Microsoft account you will be able to either create a Skype or Microsoft Teams video call.

## Viewing options

Choose from a **day**, **week**, or **month** view. Or go for the **agenda** style, which gives you a comprehensive view of the next 3 months of your life!
