Calendar sync

Copy your VolleyFit events into your phone’s calendar automatically – how to set it up and what you should know.

Applies to App PlayersCoachesParents Updated 3 Oct 2026

With calendar sync, VolleyFit adds your events directly to a calendar on your phone and keeps them up to date. If a practice changes or a match is cancelled, the app updates the entry automatically.

Setting up calendar sync

  1. Open the side menu and tap Settings.
  2. In the App section, choose Calendar sync.
  3. Turn on Enable calendar sync and allow access to your calendar.
  4. Under Target calendar, tap Select a calendar and pick the calendar your events should go into.
  5. Optional: turn on Use meeting time as start. The entry then starts at the meeting time instead of the event time.
  6. Tap Sync now to sync straight away.

The app then shows how many entries were created, updated or deleted – or All entries checked – calendar is up to date. Under Status you can see when the last sync happened.

If the app can’t find a calendar it’s allowed to write to, it offers Create calendar. This creates a separate “VolleyFit” calendar that stays on your device only.

What gets synced

  • Only your own events – where you’re a participant, organizer or on the waitlist. Your children’s events aren’t transferred, even if you’re their guardian.
  • Only upcoming events. Past entries stay in your calendar.
  • Cancelled events and events you declined yourself are removed from the calendar.
  • Changes to events are pushed automatically.
  • Recurring events become one repeating calendar entry. If a single event in the series was moved, it gets its own entry.
  • Participant names are never transferred by VolleyFit.

Status and problems

The Calendar sync entry in the settings shows the status, such as Disabled, No calendar selected, Synced or Error.
