Calendar homepage shortcut #221

Closed Japper728 closed 6 months ago

Japper728 commented 6 months ago

I noticed pressing the date on the home screen opens a calendar. I've been looking for a way to change which calendar app it opens. Is there a way to change it?

So, it should open the default calendar app configured for your device. (Meaning you should be able to change the calendar app that is launched by changing which is the default.) See https://github.com/jkuester/unlauncher/issues/13 for more context.

If you are interested in trying to open an app that is not registered as a calendar (or you do not want to change your default calendar app), please add some details with your desired workflow out on https://github.com/jkuester/unlauncher/issues/23. We can consider generalizing the functionality from that ticket to cover the clock/date as well....

Thank you for that detailed response. Maybe it is because I use graphene os that I don't see that option?

Just double-checked this on my wife's Graphene phone! Should be able to go to: Settings > Apps > See all apps. Then, use the top-right menu button and select "Show system". Now the Graphene calendar app should be shown in the list. Select it and then do down to "Open by default". Finally, click "Clear default preferences". Now go back to Unlauncher and tap on the date again. You should see an "Open with" dialog that gives you a choice between all your calendar apps (I can see both the default Graphene calendar and Google Calendar (I know, I know...)). Pick which one you want to use and select "Always". Then, Unlauncher should always launch that app for the calendar!

(And for the record, I was initially very confused about how to see the settings for Graphene's default calendar app. I did not expect it to be hidden with the System apps when the other default apps like Calculator, Camera, Clock, etc were not... Not sure why Calendar is different... :thinking: )

Hello again

I did what you said and now it just goes to Google login, which, as you thought right, is not what I was hoping for. I really want to have it open proton mail instead, but it doesn't show as an option when I click the date.

Ah, okay, so I don't think this is possible right now since I assume the Proton Mail app does not register itself with Android as a "calendar app". I have added a note to https://github.com/jkuester/unlauncher/issues/23 that this is another area of configuration to consider.
