Your deadlines in your calendar

Once your cloud space is connected — Google or Microsoft — switch on the Settings option “Sync my deadlines into a dedicated ‘Kimori’ calendar”.

A calendar of its own

Kimori creates a calendar named Kimori, separate from your main one, in Google Calendar or in Outlook depending on the space you connected. You can therefore show or hide it with a single click without touching anything else, and it appears everywhere you already consult your calendar — phone included.

What ends up in it

Two kinds of entry:

• The deadline itself, on its expiry date.
• Your alerts, prefixed “Alerte — “, on the dates you asked to be warned.

Only deadlines that are dated, active, and for which you are the recipient appear — not every deadline in the organisation. A deadline with no date, or archived, does not show.

Updating is automatic

Change a date in Kimori and the event follows. Archive a deadline and the event disappears. Synchronisation runs every fifteen minutes; the “Sync now” button triggers it immediately if you would rather not wait.

With Microsoft the authorisation covers all your calendars

Google knows how to open to an application only the calendar that application created itself. Microsoft does not: the narrowest authorisation it offers covers your calendars.

Kimori only writes to “Kimori” and reads no other calendar — but here it is Kimori that denies itself access, not Microsoft. The details are in Connecting your cloud space.

Outlook allows one reminder per event

Outlook accepts a single reminder — the notification the calendar shows before the event — where Google Calendar accepts several. No consequence for you: it is Kimori’s emails that warn you, and your alerts appear in the calendar as full entries of their own anyway.

Synchronisation runs one way only

Kimori writes to the calendar, never the reverse. Moving an event from your calendar does not change the date in Kimori — and your change will be overwritten at the next sync. Dates are always corrected from Kimori.
