Putting a google calendar icon on your iPad or iPhone

This is one way to put a link to your Google Calendar onto the home page of your ipad or iphone.
There is an actual app you can use but I personally don't like the layout of the calendar in that app so I have done mine this way.  This gives you the same view that you would see on your laptop.

Go to 'Safari' on your device and search for Google Calendar.



Enter your school email address and password for your GAFE accounts.  This will bring you to your own Google Calendar.  It should show up in 'Desktop' view.  If it doesn't just scroll to the bottom of the calendar and choose 'Desktop' view.  

Next: See the little box with the arrow pointing up in the top left corner?  Click on that.


This will give you options of what to do with this webpage.  Choose 'Ad to Home Screen'.  This will place an icon on the home screen of your ipad or iphone.  It's not a 'pretty' icon but, hey it works.  :D 

 

Walah! You now have easy one touch access to your Google calendar.
