Create calendar entries

entries are related to the whole day but not to

a specific time of the day.

Anniversary

entries remind you of birthdays and

special dates. They refer to a certain day but not a

specific time of the day. Anniversary entries are

repeated every year.

To-do

entries remind you of a task that has a due date

but not a specific time of the day.
