iPhone app plus

Google Calendar App for iPad rounds out the suite, for an app that already had a version for iPhone as well as native apps for all Android devices.

Spotlight and widgets

G Suite teams will also be able to use Calendar’s ‘Find a time’ function to schedule meetings where everyone’s available. 

At launch, Google Calendar App for iPad integrates well with Spotlight, meaning it’ll let iPad users to find entries in the Calendar app using the search function on their iPad’s home screen.

Shortly after initial launch, app updates are expected to bring widget-like functionality too. This will present upcoming events via the lock screen and the Notification Centre.
