Sync multiple Google Calendars with your iPhone

If you have an iPhone, or any other smartphone for that matter, you will probably by now have set up Google Sync with it so you can synchronize your contacts and calendar.

However, if you’re a bit hasty and follow the simple tutorial that Google provides, you will end up synchronizing  only your main calendar with your phone. It’s easy to miss the fact you can actually synchronize up to 5 (at the time of this writing) calendars. If you go back to Google Sync from your device, you should then be able to select which calendars you wish to synced. This is especially useful if you want to sync your Remember The Milk tasks or your Facebook events.

Note

To get Remember The Milk tasks in your calendar, go here.

To get Facebook events in your calendar, go to your events page, and click “Export Events”, at the top of the page. You’ll get an URL that you can then import in Google Calendar or any other calendar application.
