In the mobile app: the **Calendar** tab. The **Calendar** tab shows your inspections, inspection events, time off and other events. How it works depends on your company's **Calendar Engine**, set on the dashboard in [Organization Settings](https://docs.hiveinspect.com/settings/organization-settings.md#calendar-engine): * **Hive Calendar**: inspections, events and time off live in Hive. This is what most of this page covers. * **Google Calendar**: the calendar shows each person's connected Google Calendar. See [Google Calendar mode](#google-calendar-mode). ## Month, Week and Day ![The Calendar tab in Month view, October 2026, Alex Rivera's Calendar: a weekly Team meeting at 8:00 AM on Wednesdays, an 8:30 AM inspection at 305 Oak Street on Wednesday the 21st, and blue inspection cards later in the month.

Times are in your company's time zone. * **Repeat**: see below. * **Block calendar time**: see below. * **Notes**. ### 4. Tap Save The event shows on the calendar straight away. If the person has connected Google Calendar, a copy is added there too. ### Block calendar time | Event for | Block calendar time on | Off | | - | - | - | | **A person** (default on) | "This time will block scheduler availability (and show as busy on a connected Google Calendar)." Clients can't book that person then. | "This event will appear on the calendar but won't block availability." | | **Everyone** (default off) | "Blocks online booking for every inspector during this time." | "Shows on everyone's calendar. Doesn't block booking." | ### Repeat **Repeat** offers **Does not repeat**, **Every day**, **Every week**, **Every 2 weeks** and **Every month** on the start date's day. ![The Repeat list open: Does not repeat (ticked), Every day, Every week, Every 2 weeks and Every month on the 31st, above Block calendar time and Notes](https://mintcdn.com/hiveinspect-43c85ed1/t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV/images/how-tos/mobile-calendar-repeat-options.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV\&q=85\&s=d9c40efaa9b0e4b7f13eabdc38cfa5c5) For a weekly event, tick the days under **On**. Then choose when it **Ends**: **Never**, **On a date** or **After a number of times**. A monthly event on the 29th, 30th or 31st falls on the last day of shorter months. ![Repeat set to Every week, with weekday buttons S M T W T F S on the row labelled On (Saturday selected), and Ends set to Never](https://mintcdn.com/hiveinspect-43c85ed1/t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV/images/how-tos/mobile-calendar-weekly.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV\&q=85\&s=fdbe5b67b09ee1eaa9345303ff58568a) ## Event details, edit and delete Tap an event or time off on the calendar: ![Event Details for Time off: When Fri, Oct 30, 2026 ยท All day, Who Jamie Fox, Description Out of town, with Edit Event and Delete buttons, and pencil and trash buttons at the top](https://mintcdn.com/hiveinspect-43c85ed1/t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV/images/how-tos/mobile-calendar-time-off.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV\&q=85\&s=75443a9357182f4240a943014f89191d) **Event Details** shows when it is, who it's for and the description. **Edit Event** opens the form, and **Delete** removes it after you confirm. A repeating event also says how it repeats, for example "Repeats every week on Wednesday". ![Event Details for Team meeting: Wed, Oct 28, 2026, 8:00 AM โ€“ 9:00 AM, Repeats every week on Wednesday, Who Everyone, Description Weekly team check-in: schedule, open reports and anything stuck, with Edit Event and Delete](https://mintcdn.com/hiveinspect-43c85ed1/t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV/images/how-tos/mobile-calendar-repeating.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=t9Q1_TNVwS8aDUOV\&q=85\&s=7451bb682b991b839584cc620a2c3e52) When you change or delete one occurrence of a repeating event, the app asks which ones: **This event** or **This and following events**. Earlier occurrences never change. You can edit and delete your own events. If you manage the team's schedule, you can edit anyone's, including **Everyone** events. Inspections and inspection events are changed from the inspection itself, not from the calendar. ## Google Calendar mode When your company's Calendar Engine is **Google Calendar**, the tab shows Google Calendar events instead: * Each person needs to **connect their Google Calendar** on the dashboard first, in **Org Settings โ†’ Scheduling โ†’ Google Calendar Connection**. See [Connect Google Calendar](https://docs.hiveinspect.com/onboarding/google-calendar.md). Until you do, the tab shows **Connect Your Google Calendar**. Pull down to check again after connecting. * **+** and tapping a day open a simpler **New Event** form with **Event Title**, **All day**, **From** and **To**, **Where** and **Notes**. It's saved to your Google Calendar. * You can only add, edit and delete events on **your own** calendar. Teammates' calendars are view only ("View Only: You can only create events on your own calendar"). * A teammate who hasn't connected shows "Calendar Not Connected: \[name] has not connected their Google Calendar yet." * Tap a Google event to see its **When**, **Where** and **Description**, with **Edit Event** and **Delete** for your own. ## Common questions > **Why don't I see my teammates' calendars?** > > Sub-inspectors and support staff need the **Schedule Management** permission. Without it the Calendar tab only shows their own. Ask your company owner to turn it on in Team settings. > **Will my time off stop clients booking me?** > > Yes, if **Block calendar time** is on (it is by default for a person's event). Clients can't book you online during that time. > **Why are the times different from my phone's time zone?** > > The calendar uses your company's time zone, shown in the form ("Times are in PDT (organization timezone)"). Change it on the dashboard in Organization Settings. > **Can I move an inspection from the calendar?** > > Not by dragging. Tap the inspection to open it, then use **Reschedule**. See [Inspection Summary](https://docs.hiveinspect.com/how-tos/mobile-inspection-summary.md#reschedule-the-inspection). ## Where to go next * [Organization Settings](https://docs.hiveinspect.com/settings/organization-settings.md#calendar-engine): choose Hive or Google Calendar. * [Connect Google Calendar](https://docs.hiveinspect.com/onboarding/google-calendar.md). * [Inspection events](https://docs.hiveinspect.com/how-tos/mobile-inspection-events.md): radon pickups and re-inspections.
