    Hi

    What is the best way to do this where 2 people have the calendar app on android phones.

    We want to be able to create, edit and share reminders on the calendar.

    I know you can share a calendar by typing in their email address but does that allow them to create reminders on my calendar?

    Thanks

    I'm not sure about within the Android app, but on https://calendar.google.com/ you can choose what level of permissions the person you're sharing a calendar with has. I think the default is "See all event details", change this to "Make changes to events" and the person can then add to and edit the calendar.

    I can do this on my own phone by selecting desktop version on chrome on my phone.
    But when I try to do it on the other phone it keeps defaulting back to the calendar app where there are no settings to share.

    Same phone too so I am puzzled though I think they have a later software version on theirs.
