Calendar

The Telerik Calendar for Xamarin allows you to easily implement various calendar and scheduling scenarios in your apps built with Xamarin or Xamarin.Forms and targeting Android, iOS and UWP. Whether you want to enable date selection or create a full-blown scheduling functionality the Xamarin Calendar has got you covered.

The Telerik Xamarin Calendar Views include year, month, week and day view.   

• Month View – displays a representation of a full month
• Week View – displays a single week of a month
• Year View – displays all dates from a year grouped by months

The Scheduling Views of the Xamarin Calendar control include DayView and MultiDayView that enable working with appointments in the control on both day and or multi-day (e.g. week) manner. With these views you can easily build the needed scheduling functionality for your mobile application. 

With the DayView feature in the Telerik UI for Xamarin Calendar control end users of your application can have a detailed view of the schedule for a specific day. The mode consists of time ruler and multiple time slots, where items are placed on a vertical timeline (similar to the experience of the Outlook calendar). DayView comes in particularly handy when the end user’s schedule is more granular and events length is less than a full day. For full day events, there is specially designated all day area.

The MultiDayView of the Telerik UI for Xamarin Calendar control expands the already available DayView and enables you to create a detailed view of the schedule of two or more days visible on the same screen. This provides the end user an overview of his calendar events and appointments over a longer period of time. Similarly, to the DayView, MultiDayView is very useful when there are multiple events in a single day, where the user wants to stay on track, but also support events that span across multiple days. 

With the built-in Appointments UI of the Calendar control you can easily enable end users of your applications to leverage the full power of a calendar control, and easily add new appointments or edit available appointments and schedule meetings from a convenient and familiar UI based on the device they are using be it Android or iOS.

A common scenario for users is having a certain appointment happening more than once at a certain interval of time. With the recurring appointments patterns and rules of the Telerik UI for Xamarin calendar, end users of your application can easily set the interval at which an event will happen from the control, be it daily, weekly, monthly, or on certain day of month, week, year and much more.

With the single, multiple and range selection modes you can enable the end user to select multiple or a range of days in the calendar.

Restricted slots allow defining certain slots in the calendar views as restricted and disable the ability of the user to create events in these slots. For example, it can be used to prevent event creation over the weekend or a certain time of the day.

Thanks to the control’s flexible API you have the freedom to style each separate date cell as well as to define your own template of how an appointment in the control will look.

Support for different cultures is critical to mobile apps. The Telerik Xamarin Calendar can either inherit the default device culture or use a custom one provided by the developer.  

With multiple and range selection modes you can enable the end user to select multiple or a range of days in the calendar.
