Samsung Calendar doesn't auto sync with Google Calendar

Jimbeam600 — Thu, 10 Nov 2022 18:08:33 GMT

I add an event on Google Calendar desktop, but doesn't show on Samsung Calendar phone app until I click "Sync now".

This is a terrible problem for me. Do you know how to auto sync this?

Phone: S21 FE

Android: 12

Thanks

Is your Google email signed into the Samsung calendar?

I've recently noticed it fails to sync with my Outlook in my business account. Appointments that have appeared for quite some time. Now clicking sync doesn't produce the desired result, where I see ALL appointments on both calendars. This is a problem.

Actually, my business phone is a bit old, SM-G9. The calendar doesn't have a manage calendars setting, only Sync calendars. Am I lost without an updated phone?

Thanks for your response. I've done the troubleshooting steps, but can't find the auto sync in my Samsung account (it just doesn't appear where it should be) nor my Google account (don't know how to do this, and the troubleshooting steps don't say it).

Of course after I cleared the Calendar data from storage, and reopened the app, it syncs. But this is not auto sync. It's a manual sync.

So, not solved for me.

Can you help me out with the steps to sign into the Samsung calendar with my Google email? I have Samsung calendar on Galaxy Tab S7E & Google calendar on Galaxy S10+, both using Android 12. Thanks
