Sync calendars, both ways.
One shared calendar in Okto, kept in step with Google or iCloud with Okto Plus.
To sync calendars with your partner, use a shared calendar you both edit, and connect it to the calendar already on each phone. Okto provides the shared calendar for free, and Okto Plus adds two-way sync with the calendars on your phone, including Google and iCloud. Plus costs $4.99 a month or $34.99 a year for the household and starts with a 14-day free trial.
Instead of
- "Can you add that to my calendar?"
- a Google calendar only one of you reads
- double entry on two apps
- a missed appointment
One shared calendar, kept in step with your phones.
A shared calendar, then two-way sync
The shared Okto calendar is free: both of you add and see the same events. Okto Plus connects it to the calendars on each phone, Google or iCloud, in both directions, so you do not have to enter things twice.
- Shared month calendar, free, on iPhone and Android
- Two-way sync with Google and iCloud calendars is part of Okto Plus
- Okto Plus has a 14-day free trial
- One subscription covers both partners
- Filter by Everyone, Emma or Jake
The tasks that go with the dates
A synced calendar tells you when. Shared lists cover what comes with it, from the Vermont weekend packing list to the dry cleaning pick-up, assigned to whoever will do it.
- Reminders with a date, a time and an assignee
- A list for each trip or project
- A shared grocery list that follows the plan
Shared plans, shared costs
When a plan has a price, log the expense next to it. Okto splits it and shows the balance on Home, so the calendar and the money stay in one app.
- Split equally, by amounts or by percentages
- A balance like "You owe Jake $66.28"
- Repeating expenses with Okto Plus
- Works offline and syncs when you are back online
The synced day on one screen
Home pulls the next event, what to buy and what is due today into one view. Both partners see the same screen.
- Next event with time and place
- Today's to-dos
- Groceries to buy
Your iPhone, their Android. Same household.
- Live on both phones
- Add milk on one phone, it shows on the other a second later.
- Works offline
- The list is on your phone, even in a store with no signal.
- No ads, ever
- Okto is paid for by Okto Plus, not by your data.

Questions, answered
How do I sync my calendar with my partner?
Create a household in Okto and invite your partner. You then share one calendar that updates on both phones. With Okto Plus, it also syncs both ways with the calendars on your phones, such as Google and iCloud.
Does Okto sync with Google Calendar and iPhone calendar?
Yes, with Okto Plus. It offers two-way sync with the calendars on your phone, including Google and iCloud. The shared Okto calendar itself works without Plus.
Is calendar sync free?
The shared calendar is free. Two-way sync with your phone's calendars is part of Okto Plus, which costs $4.99 a month or $34.99 a year for the whole household and starts with a 14-day free trial.
Do we both need to subscribe to Okto Plus?
No. One Okto Plus subscription covers the whole household, so both partners get the extra features.
Can an iPhone user and an Android user share a calendar?
Yes. Okto runs on both, so a shared calendar works across platforms even when your phones use different built-in calendar apps.
What happens if I have no signal?
Okto keeps a copy of your household on each phone, so you can read and edit the calendar offline. Changes sync when the network returns.
Two phones, one calendar.
Download Okto, share a calendar with your partner, and add sync when you want it.
