Drag and drop on the calendar

On a computer or an iPad, fit something in, reschedule an appointment or take it off the calendar, all in one move.

On a computer and on an iPad, the calendar and your things to plan are side by side. You see the week, with the tabs of your things next to it (below it, on an iPad held upright). Anything a thing's buttons can do, you can also do by dragging it. This works in Day or Week view, the views that show the hours.

Fit something in

Drag a thing from “It's time”, or from the “The right moment” strip, onto an hour in the week. As you drag, a bubble shows the day, the time and what will happen. The red line that marks the current time decides what happens:

You're always asked to confirm, because the thing is getting a real date. The question already tells you when it will come round again: “Add the “Chimney sweep” appointment? Appointment on Thu 22 Oct at 10:00. Then around October 2027.” Dropped it by mistake? Answer no and nothing changes. Afterwards, the bubble repeats it, with “Undo”.

Move an appointment

Drag an appointment or a fitted-in task to another time or another day. The question tells you where it's moving from and to, and your calendar follows. A thing that's already done moves the same way, so you can change when it was done. If you drag it past the red line, it's no longer done and becomes planned for that time instead.

Take a thing off the calendar

Drag an appointment, a task or a thing that's already done from the week to the “The right moment” strip, or to your tabs. They become outlined and tell you what will happen. When you let go, the thing loses its date, with no question asked:

The thing goes back to its right moment, and your tabs show you where it has ended up.

On iPhone

There, the calendar and “To plan” are two separate tabs, so you make the same moves with the buttons of an opened-out thing. In the calendar, you move an appointment, a fitted-in task or a thing that's done with your finger: press and hold, then drag. See Book an appointment and Choose the day for a task.
