Hey!

I am trying to switch away from my Samsung Calendar (not because of Samsung as much as because I can practically only synch it with the Google Calendar).

Any recommendations?

I am working now with Tuta Calendar, but it lacks some features. For example, I cannot customize the time of the reminder (there are only five options to choose from). Also, it is not too easy to copy the events, which makes putting the same things manually every week sluggish.

Or maybe somebody knows how to tweak Samsung calendar to accept calendar synch with an open-source protocol?

Personally I use Fossify (org.fossify.calendar) for android and Thunderbird for desktop.

I moved from outlook, and in doing so I found the CalDAV protocol (part of WebDAV) is a standard used by a lot of open source calendars. I went with Infomaniak as the calendar cloud storage which was recommended from another buyEU post, they mention both Samsung and Google sync here.

Yes, CalDav is the thing, thank you!

Also, Thunderbird solves my next issue with an app for desktop sync, thanks!
