Calendar and Reminders
Use the calendars and lists already in Apple apps, or add CalDAV and subscribed ICS sources.
macOS Calendar
For a typical Apple user, the easiest option is to use the calendars already visible in the Calendar app on the Mac.
Open settings
In Assistela, choose Assistela → Settings → Calendar & Reminders.
Select macOS Calendar
In the list on the left, click macOS Calendar and enable it.
Allow Calendar access
In the macOS dialog, grant Assistela Full Calendar Access. If no dialog appears, use Settings → Permissions → Calendar.
Load calendars
Click Refresh calendars.
Select specific calendars
Enable only the calendars Assistela may read and manage. For example, you can allow personal and work calendars while leaving a shared family calendar off.
Choose a default calendar
Under Default calendar for new events, choose where Assistela should create events when you do not name another calendar in the request.
macOS Reminders
Select the source
In the same Settings section, click macOS Reminders on the left and enable the source.
Allow Reminders access
Approve the system permission. Lists load automatically after access is granted; if necessary, close and reopen the page.
Set the default list
Choose a list for new reminders, or keep the macOS default. If your request explicitly names another list, Assistela uses that one.
Advanced sources
CalDAV account
Click + and choose a CalDAV account. Select a provider template when available, then enter the name, server address, username, and password or app access key. Save the account, check the connection, and select the calendars found. CalDAV here is for calendar events; configure Apple Reminders separately.
Subscribed ICS calendar
For a read-only calendar, choose + → Subscribed ICS calendar. Enter a name and calendar URL, optional username and password, choose a refresh interval, then save and refresh.
Test the feature
- Ask “What is on my calendar tomorrow?” and compare the answer with Apple Calendar.
- Ask for a test event and confirm that it appears in the selected default calendar.
- Ask for a reminder and verify its list and due date.
