Syncing Calendar and Contacts on an Apple Device (iOS 11 and macOS)

Whether you are using an iPhone, iPad, or laptop, you can access your calendar and contacts by using your preferred calendar application. By default, MerusCase will sync events that are assigned to you from one week in the past to six months in the future.

You can also sync your firm contact list to the address book on your Apple device. All contacts (excluding companies) are imported.

Pro-Tip

You can adjust the range of events that are synced in User Preferences under Synchronization Options > Calendar Sync (CalDAV).
