Is there any way to have and use a local calendar on Android?

I would like to use it on the Android phone and open the file (vcs, ics, anything) on my laptop sometimes.

I have not found any applications that deal with local calendar files stored on the SD-card of the phone. I have found only numerous cloud applications so far.

Is there any app that can open and edit local calendar files on Android?

As far as I know, the only 'non-cloud' one is Ancal, which unfortunately seems a bit lacking in features. (There doesn't seem to be a way to set alarm or silent, set end of event, export/import events... worse yet, it beeps for alarms that were a day ago!?)

Okay. Why? How does this help? – Al Everett Jan 19 at 0:49
because you have a non cloud calendar then? or did you vote it down because it is no native app? a app is a app, either native or html5 ;) – Hauser Jan 19 at 13:22

I developed an application named "Local Sync". You can visit the website for my project to see if it suits your needs. Here is a brief excerpt:

Local Sync application implements data synchronization (tasks with color categories, notes with color categories, categories, contacts with color categories, files and calendar) between Android 2.2 and greater and Microsoft Outlook 2007 and greater via Wi-Fi, USB cable or Bluetooth (via Bluetooth PAN - WiFi must be on).

It is possible to synchronize one Android device with many PCs and one PC with many Android devices (e.g. synchronize Android with notebook and PC at home and with PC at work) - Local Sync is primarily designed to support such a scenario.

Please don't pretend "you searched" for and found a solution when your profile name and website link make it abundantly clear that you are associated with the project. – eldarerathis♦ Apr 8 at 18:55
Please read the FAQ information on promotion of your projects here. In a nutshell: It's allowed, but you need to disclose in every post. Don't overdo it. – Al Everett Apr 11 at 1:55

My android 2.2 (samsung galaxy fit) has two installed calendar provider.

When i create a new calender-entry i can choose to put it into my own lcal calender or into the "xxx@googlemail.com-calender" in the cloud.

I am not shure whether this is samsung specific or android standard.

It appears there is a setting in menu-calendars, where it will let you tap on the calendar to set sync and visibility on/off. Is this what your phone has? – NoBugs Jan 18 at 20:06

You could try CalApp.

CalApp is a iCal file browser and Calendar application. It allows you to import events,todos,journal entries from iCal,iCalendar, ics, vcs formatted files to your smartphone and browse them selectively.

It has a built-in Calendar to store your notes, appointments, todo list etc.

I think Business Calendar may fit your needs. Although it has cloud sync, you can choose to use local only.
