How to sync your Google Calendar on your Samsung Galaxy device

Last Update date : May 22. 2026

 You can manage events saved on your phone by syncing them with your Google account. Be careful when syncing, as the most recently changed data is used during sync. If sync is set up incorrectly, events saved on your phone or in your Google account may be deleted.

Sync your Google account with Calendar

Make sure Calendar is turned on in your Google account sync settings. If Calendar is turned off, turn it on, then sync the account manually. This helps keep your Calendar events updated across devices using the same Google account.
