Availability of these instructions
Standalone PhantomCal is in preparation. This page documents the calendar experience shared with current PhantomVault preview builds; it is not an announcement of a released standalone Mac or iOS app. Standalone-specific installation, purchase and account instructions will be added when those flows are available.
Two different uses of the calendar
Standalone PhantomCal is the calendar-only product. It does not have vaults, a private Vault interface, or a secret date-field route to PhantomVault.
PhantomVault's PhantomCal opening mode is an optional calendar screen in PhantomVault. It adds a separate opening secret for returning to the private interface. Instructions for configuring that mode belong in the PhantomVault guide.
Start using the calendar
- Open the calendar and choose Allow Calendar Access if you want to view or edit your calendar events.
- Select which available calendars to display.
- Select a day in the month to see its agenda.
- Move between months or choose Today.
- Use Go to Date to jump to a specific date.
You can browse dates without granting calendar access. To see events, your calendar account must be configured on the device and permission must be allowed.
Read the right guide
Calendar accounts and permissions explains where events come from. Dates, agendas and events covers navigation, creation and editing.
The current iPhone and iPad calendar experience also has Scan Schedule, which turns selected images or entered text into events you review before adding. That guide describes the existing iOS preview feature; it does not promise a Mac scanning feature or a released standalone iOS app.
Calendar-only help
The shared standalone calendar interface has neutral Calendar Help. It explains calendar controls without teaching a Vault return route. PhantomVault instead keeps its private replay controls under Settings → Help & Tutorials.
