# iCloud & CalDAV

CalDAV calendars (iCloud, Fastmail, Nextcloud, Radicale, Baïkal…) sync **two-way** with a username and password. No OAuth app is needed.

## Connect

**Settings → Calendars → + CalDAV** opens **Connect CalDAV**:

| Field            | iCloud                                                       |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Account name** | e.g. "iCloud"                                                |
| **Server URL**   | `https://caldav.icloud.com`                                  |
| **Username**     | your Apple Account email                                     |
| **App password** | an [app-specific password](https://support.apple.com/102654) |

After **Connect**, the calendar picker opens: tick the calendars you want, assign members, and tap **Add N calendars**. The setup wizard offers the same form under **🍎 iCloud (CalDAV)**, where **Next** becomes **Add N and continue**.

## Things to know

* The password is encrypted at rest and never returned by the API.
* Apple app-specific passwords can't be limited to calendars. If you only need to read, a public iCloud calendar link as an [ICS feed](/connecting-calendars/ics-feeds.md) exposes less.
* Reminders on CalDAV events are read from the server and can't be edited in Kinwall.
* A CalDAV server on your LAN (`192.168.x.x`) is blocked unless you set `ALLOW_PRIVATE_FEED_URLS=1`. See [Private / LAN feeds](/connecting-calendars/private-feeds.md).

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.kinwall.family/connecting-calendars/icloud-caldav.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
