Sync your Google Calendar with your iPhone

As you know, I recently got an iPhone – which I have been loving.

I wanted a way to synchronize my iPhone calendar with my Google Calendar, and I found a way to do it!

Step One: NuevaSync

NuevaSync takes your Google Calendar and makes it available through Exchange – which is the easiest way to sync a calendar on the iPhone. It’s really easy to set up (just go to the website and follow the directions).

Once you have registered and activated your account, go to the dashboard. Change the “Calendar” option and update it with your Gmail information. This can all be done from your phone or the computer.

Step Two: iPhone

Go to your Settings and enter the “Mail, Contacts, Calendars” section.

1. Click “Add Account”
2. Choose “Microsoft Exchange”
3. Under “Email”, enter the Gmail account you registered on NuevaSync.
4. The username is your NuevaSync username.
5. The password your NuevaSync password.
6. Description can be left blank, I called it “Calendar Sync”
7. Click “Next”.
8. After it loads, there will be a field called “Server”. Enter “www.nuevasync.com” as the value.
9. Click “Next”.
10. On the next page, turn off “Mail” and “Contacts”.
11. Click “Save”

Ta-da!

The coolest part about it is that when you update Google Calendars, it immediately updates your phone. When you update the Calendar on your phone, it immediately updates Google Calendars.

I didn’t come up with this myself, you can view the original instructions I found here.
