To strike a fine balance between personal and professional life, I prefer to have multiplecalendarsto keep appointments and schedules perfectly organized. As a result, I am able to monitor upcoming events or check what is lined up for me without having to dig deep.

  1. Now, tap on theCalendarstab at the bottom center.

  2. Next, select theAdd Calendaroption at the bottom left corner of the screen.
