Asking Siri to create a Calendar event only takes a few seconds and is much faster than creating them manually and entering all the data yourself.

How to create a calendar event with Siri

If you're on the go or just want an easier way to add events to your Calendar app, Siri will happily get the job done for you. Creating an event is super simple and only takes a few seconds.

1. Hold down the Home button to activate Siri.

2. Tell Siri what you'd like her to schedule. For example: "Schedule a conference call with Phil tomorrow at 9AM."
3. Wait for Siri to show you the Calendar widget and ask for confirmation.

If there's any ambiguity about what you said, or Siri is uncertain, it will ask you to clarify. For example, if you ask to set up an appointment "tomorrow", and it's near midnight, Siri will ask you to specify the date to make sure the appointment is set up properly.

How to update a calendar event with Siri

There may be times where you'll need to make changes to existing meetings, events, or appointments. Siri can do that for you too.

1. Hold down the Home button to activate Siri.

2. If you know what meeting you need to change you can just tell Siri to move or cancel it. For example: "Move my meeting with Rene to 5PM."
3. Wait for Siri to show you the updated Calendar widget and ask for confirmation.
