# Calendar and contacts

Your calendar and contacts open in the suite, **Agenda** and **Contact** apps, and sync natively with your devices through the standard **CalDAV** and **CardDAV** protocols. What you add on your phone appears on the web, and the other way round.

## Putting your calendar and contacts on a device

### 1. Create an application password

On [suite.simafri.com](https://suite.simafri.com/), open **Devices**:

1. name the device, for example `My phone`;
2. click **Create**;
3. **copy the password right away**: it is shown once.

One password per device, up to **20** at a time. **Revoke** unplugs that device alone.

### 2. Enter the three lines

| Field         | Value                                |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------ |
| **Server**    | `suite.simafri.com`                  |
| **User name** | your sign-in address                 |
| **Password**  | the application password from step 1 |

Your device then finds the calendars and address books on its own. Software that asks for the full address expects `https://suite.simafri.com/dav/`.

### The path on each device

* **iPhone and iPad**: Settings, Apps, Calendar, Accounts, Add account, Other, **Add CalDAV account**. Repeat in Contacts with **Add CardDAV account**.
* **Android**: install a DAV client from the app store, then add the account with the three lines above.
* **Thunderbird**: Calendar, New calendar, On the network, then the full address.
* **Outlook and macOS**: add a CalDAV account, then a CardDAV account, with the same values.

## Showing a calendar to a colleague

Your calendars are yours, and you alone show them. In **Agenda**, **Who sees your calendars** section:

1. choose the person and the calendar concerned;
2. choose what they see: **busy or free**, or **the whole entry**;
3. choose what they may do: **read**, or **read and write**.

The calendar then appears in their list, on the web and on their phone. **Take back** removes it at any time.

## The three shelves of contacts

| Shelf             | What it holds                               | Who writes it                     |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| **Mine**          | your own address book                       | you, from your phone or the web   |
| **The account**   | the shared directory, on everyone's phone   | the people who manage the account |
| **From the mail** | the cards of your mailboxes' correspondents | the mail itself                   |

One search sweeps all three. **Add to my contacts** copies a card into your own book: the copy is yours, and the original goes on living its own life.

The account directory reaches your team's devices on its own, with no second setup: update one line and everybody has it.

## What counts towards your plan

Calendars and address books take room in the account's plan, just like mail and files. A year of appointments and a full address book weigh a few hundred kilobytes, a fraction of the smallest plan. See [Storage and billing](/en/suite/stockage-et-facturation.md).
