How to Connect Multiple Calendars in rivva
Step-by-step guide to connecting up to 4 Google Calendars in rivva. See your real availability across work, personal, and side projects in one unified view for smarter scheduling.
Work calendar. Personal calendar. Side project calendar. School calendar.
You’re juggling multiple schedules, but most productivity tools only see one. So they schedule work during time that’s technically “free” but actually isn’t.
rivva’s Multi-Calendar feature fixes this. Connect up to 4 Google Calendar accounts, and rivva sees your real availability across every part of your life.
What Multi-Calendar does
Multi-Calendar lets you connect up to 4 Google Calendar accounts to rivva.
Once connected, rivva combines all of your schedules into a single view and uses them to:
1. Find the best time to schedule your tasks rivva checks all your calendars before suggesting a slot
2. Avoid conflicts across all your calendars No more double-booking because one calendar didn’t know about the other
3. Create events directly on the right account Choose which calendar an event should appear on
4. Give you a more accurate picture of your day See everything in one place instead of jumping between apps
How to add or remove calendar accounts
You can manage your calendar accounts anytime.
Option 1: From Planner
Go to Planner
Tap the three dots in the top-right corner
Select Add calendar account to connect a new account
Or select Manage calendars to disconnect accounts or adjust visibility
Option 2: From Settings
Go to Settings → Permissions
Click on Calendar
Tap Connect to add or Disconnect to remove an account
Pro tip: After connecting accounts, we recommend re-syncing them to ensure everything works smoothly. You can do this from Planner → three dots → Manage Calendars, or from Settings → Permissions → Calendar.
Calendar visibility: What it means
After connecting your accounts, you can choose which calendars you want visible on your Planner.
This is purely a visual setting:
Visibility ON You’ll see the calendar’s events on your Planner
Visibility OFF You won’t see the events on your Planner
But here’s the important part: visibility does NOT affect Smart Scheduling.
Even if a calendar is hidden, rivva still checks your availability on that calendar when scheduling tasks for you.
So you can:
Hide your work meetings on the weekend
Hide your side-hustle calendar during your 9-5
Keep your personal calendar private
And rivva will still schedule accurately across all of them.
How rivva creates events across multiple accounts
When you create an event in rivva:
rivva uses your default calendar unless you choose a different one
You can select which calendar the event should be created on
The event appears instantly on your Google Calendar
You can create events by:
