Connect Apple Calendar to CalPaper

Apple does not allow third-party apps to use your normal Apple Account password directly. To connect Apple Calendar in CalPaper, you first need to create a secure app-specific password.

Important: The password used here is not your normal Apple ID password. CalPaper should only use the app-specific password created in your Apple account.

Open Your Apple Account Settings

Go to account.apple.com and sign in with your Apple account.

Generate an App-Specific Password

Once logged into your Apple account:

Go to Sign-In and Security
Choose App-Specific Passwords

Enter a label such as CalPaper, then click Create.

App-specific password generation screen in Apple account settings

Copy the Generated Password

Apple will generate a password similar to this:

abcd-efgh-ijkl-mnop

Copy this password immediately, then keep it available for the next step.

This is not your normal Apple ID password.
CalPaper only uses this app-specific password.
You can revoke it anytime from your Apple account settings.

Add Your Apple Calendar in CalPaper

In CalPaper:

Open Calendars.
Choose Add New Calendar.
Select Apple.

Enter the following:

Your Apple ID email address.
The app-specific password generated in Step 3.

Then click OK.
