Sync Shape to your calendar

• Planned workouts with your notes and steps. If you add a time, the event starts then and lasts as long as the workout’s duration, or an hour if it has none. Without a time, it’s an all-day event. If you travel, a 7:00 workout still reads 7:00.
• Completed workouts at the time you did them, with duration, distance, speed, heart rate, power, elevation and load when the workout has them.
• A planned workout you’ve completed shows once, as the completed workout.

The feed includes your past workouts too, not just what’s coming up. In Apple Calendar, each event also links to the workout in Shape.

1. 1

   Turn on Calendar sync

   Go to Settings → Calendar sync, or to the same setting in the iPhone app. Your link appears once it’s on.

2. 2

   Add it to your calendar

   • Apple Calendar: press Subscribe and confirm in Calendar.
   • Google Calendar: copy the link. On a computer, open Google Calendar, press + next to Other calendars, choose From URL and paste it. It then shows on your phone too.

Your calendar shows what’s in Shape, so make changes in Shape. Editing or deleting an event in your calendar app doesn’t change the workout, and Shape can’t see anything else in your calendar.

The feed updates every 30 minutes. After that, it’s up to your calendar app to fetch it:

• Apple Calendar is the most reliable, since you can set it to refresh every 5 minutes.
• Google Calendar updates less often, and you can’t change how often.

Anyone with your link can see your workouts. If you shared it by mistake, press Reset link in Settings → Calendar sync. Calendars using the old link stop updating, so subscribe again with the new one.

Turning Calendar sync off pauses the feed. Your link stays the same, so it works again when you turn it back on.
