Problems solved by technology

These applications also do not support the simultaneous display of details from calendars offered on multiple different calendar platforms
Additionally, these applications generally do not utilize the limited display space on the mobile phone efficiently (e.g., uneconomical display of long periods of idle time with nothing scheduled)
As a result, users cannot effectively access and manage their calendars using these applications
[0004] Accordingly, the art lacks, inter alia, a system and method for efficiently accessing and managing calendars within the limited display area of ​​a computing device

Abstract

A system is disclosed for users to manage calendars in mobile computing devices. The system retrieves calendar entries from multiple calendars of distinct calendar platforms, extracts event information from the retrieved calendar entries, and aggregates extracted event information. The system can simultaneously display calendar entries extracted from multiple calendars of distinct platforms. The system provides various features for users to operate the calendars, such as (1) hiding calendar entries from some calendars and visually distinguishing the time scheduled for the hidden entries from free time; (2) compressing the display of extended free time periods; and enabling users to (3) navigate time as a scrolling list not subject to the limitations of arbitrary calendar units (e.g., month, week).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to calendar applications and, in particular, to calendar applications executable within computing devices. Background technique [0002] As electronic calendars become commonplace, people are increasingly using various calendars to organize their schedules. Users often utilize multiple calendars to manage the schedule of the various roles the user plays in life. For example, a user may have Calendar A for work-related matters, and Calendar B for family or social-related matters. One of the calendars can be shared with others, while the other can only be accessed by the user himself. [0003] There are existing applications that enable users to access and view online calendars from mobile computing devices. Some of the applications (eg, iPHONE CALENDAR) enable the user to synchronize the local calendar on the user's mobile phone with externally closed calendar applications such as APPLE MOBILEME and MICROSOFT E...
