Finally! Sync iPhone with Google Calendar — Seemlessly!

Ok, so I’ve been looking for a way to do this for a long time. I won’t spend time talking about it but rather I’ll just give you details on how to do it.

After doing this you will be able to:

  • Update Google Calendar from the Calendar app on iPhone
  • Have new events appear in your main Calendar on gCal
  • See newly added events on gCal and your iPhone
  • Get your updated Calendar WITHOUT syncing, this is all over the air

To do this we’ll be setting up an exchange server which links to you gCal account. This requires you to setup an account. So:
STEP 1
Create an account at https://www.nuevasync.com/ and link it to your google calendar.
STEP 2
Set up your iPhone by following these steps:
  1. Go to your Calendar and Mail Settings
  2. Select “Add Account”.
  3. Choose “Microsoft Exchange”
  4. For “Email” enter the e-mail you used for NuevaSync.
  5. For “Username” enter your NuevaSync username.
  6. For “Password” enter your NuevaSync password.
  7. Choose “Next”.
  8. When the next screen comes up, choose “Server”. Enter “www.nuevasync.com” for server.
  9. Choose “Next”.
  10. On the next page, turn off everything except for Calendars. Make sure Calendars is turned on.
  11. Tap “Save”
If you go back in your settings you should see something like this:
STEP 3
You’ll need to adjust your timezone settings on your iPhone. Just scroll down in the Mail settings. You should see a screen like this:
