Mincal queries the system for visible calendar events, if they're visible in the calendar app they should appear in the widget too. Could you confirm this is the case?

On the other hand, sometimes wiping the data the calendar storage system app helps too.

Wiping the data of the calendar app worked , thanks !

I'm having the same problem, I don't see a way to access the system calendar so I use simple calendar pro. Ive tried the above and no change. Is it because I use a third party calendar?

Hi @ryan2353,

Long story short, depends on how the third party calendar stores the data. For my personal use I have a few calendars, both from gmail and offline (in a third party app) and they all show up, and for testing I also created an offline calendar with Etar which also shows data in the emulator.

I'd suggest to either try with another open source calendar app to rule out the storage option or try to enable the calendar in the default OS calendar app.

Switching to etar worked thanks
