Hi! My Org-mode export generates entries like this one: BEGIN:VEVENT UID: TS-a79f58e8-127e-485d-813b-d81c46f70c9e DTSTART:20121205T163000 DTEND:20121205T180000 SUMMARY:This is the event DESCRIPTION: Here goes the first parts of the notes/content CATEGORIES:@town,misc END:VEVENT I would like to use/read the CATEGORIES (@town and misc - corresponding to the list of tags) in Google Calendar. I want to use it on my Android devices, to be precise. In my online Google Calendar I do not see anything about those categories. On my Android devices either. I supposed that Google does not support this field. However, I could only find [1] with an description of the Google Calendar supported format. Quite unspecific IMHO. Is there someone facing the same issue? 1. https://support.google.com/calendar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=45664 -- Karl Voit

Well, to me it means neither Google Calendar and the current Org
Android apps support categories.
It would be nice to double-check this by displayed an org-generated
.ics file into an application that *does* support categories.

To be fair, I have to add that I do not connect my Android MobileOrg app with my Android calendar. I am using ICS-export -> Webserver -> Google Calendar <-> Android Calendar App. So what about Org <-> MobileOrg <-> Android Calendar ? Is someone able to confirm this issue of not using the categories property? > It would be nice to double-check this by displayed an org-generated > .ics file into an application that *does* support categories. In case of no success here either, I would plead to switch to a ICS field that gets interpreted or add it to the description field or such. -- Karl Voit
