A lot of people want their tasks to show up next to their meetings, without keeping a second app open all day. Vyneron does this with a one-way iCal calendar feed: subscribe once, and your dated tasks and routines appear in Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, or Outlook.
The feed is read-only. Your calendar shows your Vyneron tasks, and you still manage them in Vyneron (or Telegram). Below is how to set it up and what to expect.
TL;DR: In Vyneron, go to Settings → Integrations → Calendar feed, generate your private link, and paste it into your calendar app as a subscribed (not imported) calendar. Your dated tasks and holiday-adjusted routines show up automatically. Available on trial and paid plans.
What the calendar feed does (and doesn't do)
It does:
- Show your dated tasks and recurring routines as calendar events.
- Skip public holidays in routines. Vyneron computes routines around public holidays worldwide (on paid plans and during the trial, the same plans that get the feed), so the events you see already skip them. An "every Monday 9 AM" routine won't show up on a public holiday.
- Update on its own. Calendar apps refresh subscribed feeds periodically, so new tasks appear without re-exporting.
It doesn't (by design):
- It's one-way. Editing an event in Google/Apple/Outlook won't change anything in Vyneron, so manage tasks in Vyneron or Telegram. (Vyneron doesn't offer two-way Google Calendar sync.)
- It doesn't include undated tasks or notes, since only things with a date or time belong on a calendar.
How to set it up (about 60 seconds)
1. Generate your feed link in Vyneron
Open Settings → Integrations → Calendar feed and generate your link. You'll get a private URL that looks like https://api.vyneron.com/ical/<your-token>.ics. The token is the authentication, so treat the link like a password and don't share it publicly.
2. Subscribe in your calendar app
Choose "Subscribe to calendar" (a live feed) instead of "Import" (a one-time copy). A subscription keeps updating; an import is a frozen snapshot.
- Google Calendar: On desktop, go to Other calendars → + → From URL, paste the link, and add it. (Google refreshes external feeds on its own schedule, usually several times a day.)
- Apple Calendar (iPhone/iPad): Settings → Calendar → Accounts → Add Account → Other → Add Subscribed Calendar, then paste the link. On Mac: File → New Calendar Subscription.
- Outlook: Add calendar → Subscribe from web, paste the link, and name it.
3. Done
Your Vyneron tasks and routines now appear alongside your meetings. New dated tasks show up automatically the next time your calendar refreshes the feed.
A note on refresh timing
Subscribed calendar feeds don't update in real time. Google, Apple, and Outlook each poll external feeds on their own schedule (often a few times a day), and that applies to every calendar subscription, not only Vyneron's. If you need something to appear instantly, check it in Vyneron or Telegram, where it's live.
Why this pairs well with holiday-aware routines
What makes the feed more useful than an export is the schedule behind it. On paid plans and during the trial, Vyneron computes recurring tasks against a built-in public-holiday database with worldwide coverage, so the events that land in your calendar already account for holidays. An "every Monday" routine won't put a task on a national holiday. (More on how that works: Smart Calendar: Recurring Tasks That Respect Holidays Worldwide.)
FAQ
What's the difference between subscribing to a calendar and importing it?
A subscription is a live feed that keeps updating. An import is a one-time copy, a frozen snapshot that never picks up new tasks.
Why don't new tasks show up in my subscribed calendar right away?
Subscribed feeds don't update in real time. Google, Apple and Outlook each poll external feeds on their own schedule, often a few times a day, so a new task appears after the next refresh.
Can I edit Vyneron tasks from Google Calendar?
No. The feed is one-way and read-only, so editing an event in Google, Apple or Outlook changes nothing in Vyneron. Make changes in Vyneron or Telegram.
Want to try it? Set up Vyneron free, add a couple of dated tasks or a routine, and subscribe to your feed from Settings → Integrations. Prefer to capture on the go? You can create those tasks straight from Telegram or WhatsApp and watch them appear in your calendar.
