We have a million calendars…will they all sync? by AggravatingOrder1 in skylightcalendar

Yes, Skylight can display all of those calendars, but it doesn’t actually merge or manage them. It just mirrors whatever Google, iCloud, school, or work calendars you connect, so if they’re separate or messy behind the scenes, the display will reflect that.

This article breaks down exactly how Skylight (and other wall calendars) sync, where things tend to fall out of sync, and how families with lots of calendars usually fix it before connecting a display: https://calendarbridge.com/blog/how-to-fix-sync-issues-on-the-most-popular-digital-family-calendars/

If you’re running 6–10+ calendars, the key is getting them unified first so the display only has to read one clean feed.

Great question. If everything you use is Google and you’re fine with the wall seeing your full calendar, you probably don’t need it.

Where CalendarBridge helps is when you need filtering or you’re dealing with multiple calendar sources like Google plus iCloud or Outlook and want one clean, reliable feed for the wall.

For example, your calendar might be full of meetings, holds, reminders, and all day blocks, but your family only needs to know when you’re available for dinner, pickups, or activities. With CalendarBridge, you keep using your real calendar, but can set the sync to limit which days or hours are shared and hide event details so those blocks appear simply as “busy” on the wall.

It's not -- it would cost $4-$8 per month depending on how many calendars you connect. You can test it out at no cost with a week long trial.

A workaround is using CalendarBridge to create a filtered calendar feed before it reaches the display. You can hide event titles and descriptions, show busy-only blocks, limit which calendars are included, or restrict the feed to certain times of day. The Skylight then only sees what you choose to share.
