Say if you can sync all your Facebook birthdays or Events to your Google Calendar. The same Google Calendar will be available to you on your smart phone. Add it like a widget and always be updated with your friend’s birthday dates.
Below are required steps:
- Login to your Facebook account and Facebook Calendar page or visit https://www.facebook.com/events/.
- Look for option to sync or import your Facebook calendar to Outlook, Google Calendar or Apple Calendar.
- It is placed at the right-sidebar in bottom. Would look like this below image.
- Do a right-click on the “Birthdays” link and click on “Copy Link Address“
- Now open Google Calendar in new Tab or visit //calendar.google.com/
- Select “Settings” option by clicking on the “Gear” icon as shown below
- Once “Settings” page is open, look for “Add Calendar” option on right-side and click on “From URL”
- Click the “From URL” will open a new page “https://calendar.google.com/calendar/r/settings/addbyurl” and then paste your link we copied on Step No: 4, and click on “Add Calendar” button.
- Once done, your newly added calendar will appear on right-side at the bottom looking like this:
- Now click on that newly added Calendar, it will show you more customisable options like color, name, permission, sharing or remove.
- Now your Facebook Calendar has been integrated with Google Calender or anyother you want, just follow similar steps.
- You can even view this calendar in your smartphone by installing Google Calendar on your mobile device.
Hope it worked for you ! Keep reading 🙂
Are you sure that this solution still works? I understand that facebook has removed the support for calendar sync since October 2018.
it works! All the screenshots are from my own device and I’m still using this way to sync Facebook events on my phone.
I assume so, coz till today I’m using this. Because today as well I see the option to sync Facebook events with external Calendars like Outlook and more. So yes, it is possible.
Don’t work for me from 2019.02
