Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about using Snap2Cal

How It Works

How does Snap2Cal work?

Upload a photo or PDF of a flyer, schedule, or invitation. Our AI finds the event details (title, date, time, location). You can review and edit them, then add them to a Google Calendar you choose.

What kinds of images work best?

Snap2Cal works best with:

  • Event flyers and posters
  • School schedules and calendars
  • Party invitations
  • Screenshots of event details
  • Sports schedules

Clear, readable images with visible dates and times get the best results.

What file types can I upload?

Images: PNG, JPG, GIF, WebP. PDFs are supported too. Very long or densely packed PDFs can be hard to read in one pass—try a shorter PDF or a screenshot of the page with the events.

Why didn't it find all the events?

AI works best when event info is clearly visible. Try:

  • Using a clearer or higher-resolution image
  • Making sure dates and times are visible
  • Cropping to focus on the event details
  • For a long PDF, using a shorter file or a screenshot of the relevant page

Your Data & Privacy

What happens to my images?

Your images and PDFs are sent to our AI service to extract event details, then immediately discarded. We don't store the files you upload.

What calendar access does Snap2Cal have?

Snap2Cal can add events and read your list of calendars so you can pick where they go. We cannot read, edit, or delete your existing events.

Is my Google account safe?

Yes. We use Google's official sign-in system (OAuth 2.0). We never see your Google password. You can revoke access anytime.

How do I remove Snap2Cal's access to my account?

Visit your Google Account Permissions, find Snap2Cal, and click "Remove Access."

Using the App

Can I edit events before adding them?

Yes. On the review screen you can change the title, date, start and end times, all-day setting, location, and notes before anything is added to Google Calendar.

Can I choose which calendar to add events to?

Yes. After you sign in, pick any Google Calendar you can write to. We'll remember your last choice.

Can I add just some of the events?

Yes. Each event has its own "Add" button, or you can add all of them at once. If some succeed and others don't, you can add the remaining ones without re-uploading.

Troubleshooting

The sign-in button isn't working

Try refreshing the page or using a different browser. Make sure pop-ups aren't blocked.

I'm getting an error when processing my image

This can happen with very large files, unclear images, or long PDFs. Try:

  • Using a smaller file size
  • Taking a clearer photo
  • Cropping to just the event information
  • For a dense PDF, using a shorter file or a screenshot of the page with the events

Events were added with the wrong time

Snap2Cal uses your device's timezone. If times look off, check that your device timezone is set correctly.
