How to Use the REPSLog Calendar Integration to Sync Calendar Events

REPSLog’s calendar integration helps you turn real calendar events into compliant REPSLog entries quickly and accurately.

Supported Platforms

iPhone (iOS)

• Uses the Calendar app on your iPhone

• If you use another provider (such as Google Calendar, Outlook, or Exchange), you must first sync that calendar with Apple Calendar in your iPhone settings

Android

• Uses the Google Calendar app

Two Kinds of Calendar

REPSLog can read your calendar in two different ways, and they are disconnected differently.

• Your device calendar. REPSLog reads the Calendar app already on your phone, using the calendar permission you grant to the app. Nothing leaves your device to reach us unless you turn an event into an entry.

• A connected calendar account. You can instead connect a Google or Microsoft calendar account to REPSLog directly. When you do, you sign in with that provider and we hold an encrypted credential that lets us fetch your events when you open the calendar. We do not store the events themselves.

Separately, if you rent short-term, you can add booking calendars (an iCal link from Airbnb, Vrbo or a similar site) so that stays show up alongside your events. See the Booking Calendars topic.

How to Connect Your Calendar

You can connect your calendar in two ways:

Option A:

1. Go to the Overview page

2. Scroll to the Calendar Events section

3. Tap the Sync My Calendar button

4. When prompted, choose Allow Full Access to calendars
   
   

   

Option B:

1. Go to Settings → Calendar Integration

2. Tap the arrow icon

3. When prompted, choose Allow Full Access to calendars
   
   

Adding Calendar Events as REPSLog Entries

Once your calendar is connected, your recent events will appear on the Overview tab, with access to the full calendar in the expanded view.

In the expanded calendar view, events are shown in a weekly layout by default. You can navigate between weeks using the arrow buttons, or drag the expand handle downward to switch to a monthly view for a broader look at your schedule.

To add events as entries, simply select one or more calendar events you want to log. 

For each calendar event, REPSLog attempts to extract:

• Event name

• Description

• Duration

• Address -if matched to a property in REPSLog, it will be assigned automatically.
  
  
  

After selecting an event, you’ll have a chance to review and edit the entry details before saving. 

If you select multiple events and one or more of them do not have a property assigned, REPSLog will prompt you to choose which property to assign before completing the entries.

You can also control which calendars are included in the sync. To do this, tap the gear icon (⚙️) in the top-right corner and select the specific calendars you want REPSLog to pull events from.

Best practice: In your calendar app, create a separate calendar for all real estate related events. When syncing with REPSLog, select only that calendar so you can focus on viewing and logging relevant events without distractions.

FAQs

How do I sync Google Calendar with my iPhone?

On your iPhone:

1. Go to Settings → Calendar → Accounts

2. Tap Add Account

3. Select Google

4. Sign in and enable Calendars

Your Google events will now appear in Apple Calendar and in REPSLog.

Why are some events not showing up?

This is usually due to Apple / Google sync delays.

What to try:

• Wait 1 to 2 hours

• Fully close and reopen the REPSLog app

• Make sure the calendar is enabled via the ⚙️ calendar settings

Can I add future events?

No. Only past events can be converted into REPSLog entries.

What if I changed an event after adding it to REPSLog?

REPSLog does not auto-update existing entries.
You can go to your REPSLog entries and manually edit the entry to reflect the changes.

Is the calendar integration available on the desktop version?

Reading the calendar already on your phone is a mobile-only feature, because that calendar lives on the device. A connected Google or Microsoft account also works on the web: if you have one, a Calendar item appears in the web sidebar.

How do I disconnect my calendar from REPSLog?

It depends which kind you connected.

A connected Google or Microsoft account. Open the Calendar page in REPSLog and choose Disconnect (on the phone, Manage Accounts first). Turning off the calendar permission in your phone settings does not disconnect a connected account, because that account is read through the provider rather than through your device. You can also remove REPSLog from the connected-apps page of your Google or Microsoft account, which cuts off access at the provider's end.

Your device calendar, on the phone. Open the Calendar page in REPSLog and choose Disconnect Device Calendar. You can also remove the permission at the operating system level:

iPhone

1. Go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Calendars

2. Select REPSLog

3. Set permission to None

Android

1. Go to Settings → Apps → REPSLog

2. Tap Permissions

3. Disable Calendar access

Deleting your REPSLog account disconnects everything and deletes the stored credential.
