TimeTree has a section that displays multiple calendars named "All Calendars". You can also synchronize your other calendars to TimeTree by using this function. You can choose which calendars you wish to see in this view.

2. Copy external calendar events to TimeTree

By copying external calendars into your TimeTree calendar, you and the members of a shared calendar can view, edit, and delete events to meet everyone's needs.

Can't be done:

  • Automatic sync from TimeTree to external calendars is not available
  • Events entered into TimeTree are not directly reflected in the external calendars
    • Copy one by one
  • This function is not available on the web version
