A new Samsung Calendar update introduces several key improvements to the app. It will also allow users to create new events much easier. Samsung’s calendar app has always been useable, but this new update could make it even more useful for Android smartphone users.
New Samsung Calendar update brings several new features
The Samsung Calendar update will be available on all supported Samsung devices. Image source: Samsung The newest version of Samsung Calendar will now allow users to create events more easily. The app appears to utilize a system similar to the now-defunct language processing system that Google Calendar used to utilize. The Samsung Calendar update also introduces better invitation management. And you’ll be able to add recommendations quicker, too.
Version 12.3.05.10000 of the Samsung Calendar app offers all of these improvements. They all tie in easily with the features that already exist in the app, including some you may not be aware of. One big improvement is the option to check group calendar invitations from the calendar management page. This is the page you’d normally check to determine how you view your calendar within the app.
Changing how the app handles event creation
Image source: Samsung Of course, the most notable improvement is a change to how this Samsung Calendar update connects a time and location to your event. Previously, the app could determine the time an event should be set based on the title. For example, writing “Lunch at 2” into the event’s title would cause the app to suggest a time of 2 pm for the event.
The update will also make it simpler to determine your event’s location. Now, if you type “Lunch at 2 at Byron’s Steakhouse”, it will suggest a location with the latest Samsung Calendar update. And, if you don’t want to keep all that information in the event, you can now remove it easily, too. Simply head into the Calendar settings and select “Remove times from event titles” to clean up the event title.
This is a similar feature that used to be available in Google Calendar. Google removed it back during a calendar redesign in 2018, though. It’s unclear why Google removed the option, but it definitely makes creating events much easier. So it is nice to see it make some kind of return in the latest Samsung Calendar update
On top of the new update making events easier to create, managing them will be easier, too. And, you’ll be able to add friends and family members to the invitation list more easily.

CES isn't the only big conference to hit in January 2020. The following week, from January 13-17, an army of voice platforms, developers, analysts, and media will descend on Chattanooga, Tennessee to exchange ideas and strategies at Project Voice. The Bixby Developers team will be there from Monday's opening workshops to the closing address on Friday —we'll be especially hard to miss on Thursday, when our own Adam Cheyer delivers the keynote to kick off the day.
Project Voice is a can't-miss conference no matter where you engage with Bixby, whether you're merely curious or an advanced developer working on a new capsule:
Existing Bixby developers will be fascinated by in-depth case study conversations with Premier Developers and breakout sessions with tips and tricks for everything from optimizing your Bixby Marketplace presence to building for the Galaxy Watch. Prospective Bixby developers will learn everything you need to start building a capsule at our Monday workshop, where lucky participants also have a chance to win a sleek new smartwatch or two; Thursday's breakout sessions are filled with even more insights designed to put you on the path to success. Podcasters and content providers are warmly invited to stop by our booth at the Voice World Fair, where we'll show you how to get your creative output into Bixby. Everyone at the conference is encouraged to stop by our booth in any case; we'll be raffling off a Galaxy Watch Active2 smartwatch every day of the show. Pack something nice for Wednesday's Project Voice Awards Gala, where Adam Cheyer will accept a Lifetime Achievement Award, and the winners for Bixby Developer of the Year and Capsule of the Year will be announced.
If you're just starting out, hungry for advanced tips, or just wondering how you can plug into the Bixby ecosystem, get your ticket for Project Voice now. Prepare to make some new connections, and brace yourself to learn more than you ever thought possible! Can't be there in person? Follow along on our new Twitter account, @bixbydevelopers.
