CalEF (Calendar Entry Formatter)

Introduction

Create and send Appointment-Confirmation-Message from Android-Calendar-Entry.

Making an appointment means

  • Add date, time and title of the appointment to the Android-Calendar
  • In Android-Calendar-Detailview use Send/Share (from menu or toolbar)
  • Select "CalEF" as share destination (to convert to human readable text)
  • Select the final Send/Share destination (clipboard, sms, mail, ...)

Usually calendar entries are shared in human-unreadable technical format "ICS" (or "VCS") that calendar programs can read.

CalEF receives the technical format and re-sends/re-shares it-s content as human readable text.

Note: CalEF can also process "ics" (or "vcs") files (i.e. from a calendar backup).
