Create and switch Calendar Sets

Save groups of Google calendars for work, family, or any other part of your day.

Requires Premium. Feature availability

Create a set

  1. Make sure the Google account you want is connected in Settings → Accounts.
  2. Open Settings → Focus and find Calendar Sets. Choose the Google account for the set.
  3. Click Add Set, enter a name such as Work or Family, select at least one calendar, then click Save.

Apply a set

  1. Open the main Google Calendar window. GCal automatically shows the Calendar Sets for the account you are using.
  2. Choose View → Calendar Sets and select your set. You can also use the Calendar Sets submenu in the agenda when available.
  3. To edit a set later, return to Settings → Focus or choose Manage Calendar Sets… from the menu.

The selected group now controls which calendars appear in the main window. Calendar Sets do not change the menu bar, Dock, widgets, or notifications. Use Calendar settings for native-agenda selection and macOS Focus filters for menu-bar and notification filtering.

If a set is not available

Sets belong to a particular Google account. Check the account open in the main window and the account selected in Focus settings. If the calendar list cannot load, reconnect the account or retry before editing the set.
