How to sync Apple Calendar with Cozyla Calendar – Cozyla Support

Applies to: Cozyla+ Mobile App

You can connect Apple Calendar to Cozyla Calendar so your selected Apple Calendar events appear in Cozyla.

Apple Calendar requires an Apple app-specific password. This is different from your regular Apple ID password.

Make sure you have:

Access to the Cozyla+ Mobile App
Access to the Apple ID connected to your Apple Calendar
Access to Apple account settings
A device or phone number that can receive your Apple ID verification code
A stable internet connection

Sync Apple Calendar With Cozyla Calendar

Tap Settings in the top-right corner.
Tap Add next to the avatar.
Select Apple Calendar.
Find the prompt icon near App-Specific Password.
Tap the prompt icon.
Tap Click here.
Scroll to How to generate an app-specific password.
Tap the account.apple.com link.
Tap Sign in.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Enter the verification code sent to a device signed in to your Apple ID.
Scroll to App-Specific Password.
Tap App-Specific Password.
Select Generate an app-specific password.
Optional: Enter a label to help identify this app-specific password.
Tap Create.
Re-enter your Apple ID password if prompted.
Copy the app-specific password shown by Apple, or take a photo of it so you can enter it in Cozyla.
Return to the Calendar account-add page in Cozyla. You can use the Back gesture or swipe back as needed.
Enter your Apple account.
Enter the app-specific password you just generated.
Tap Connect.

After setup is complete, your Apple Calendar should connect to Cozyla Calendar. Your selected Apple Calendar events should appear after syncing.

Third-party calendars, including Apple Calendar, can only be linked to a single user account.

If you reassign an event from one member to another, the event may:

Sync to the new member account if the new member has a linked calendar selected as the sync target
Be removed from the original linked calendar account
Appear to disappear or sync unexpectedly between members

To avoid issues such as events disappearing or syncing unexpectedly, we recommend adding a Profile directly to the event instead of reassigning it to another member.

Alternatively, you can create a dedicated Family Profile specifically for connecting this type of third-party calendar.

Apple Calendar Does Not Connect

If Apple Calendar does not connect:

Confirm your internet connection is working.
Confirm you entered the correct Apple account.
Confirm you entered the Apple app-specific password, not your regular Apple ID password.
Generate a new app-specific password and try again.
Return to Cozyla and tap Connect again.

Apple Calendar Events Do Not Appear

If your Apple Calendar events do not appear in Cozyla Calendar:

Confirm the Apple Calendar account is connected.
Confirm the events are in the Apple Calendar account you connected.
Confirm the events are assigned to the correct profile or member.
Refresh Cozyla Calendar and wait a few minutes for events to sync.

Events Disappear After Reassigning Them

If events disappear after you reassign them to another member:

Check whether the new member has a linked calendar selected as the sync target.
Check whether the event was removed from the original linked calendar account.
Add a Profile directly to the event instead of reassigning the event owner.
Consider using a dedicated Family Profile for shared third-party calendar events.
