If you are new to BlackBerry, you probably do not realize how powerful its calendar capabilities are. Appointment notifications and calendar management are crucial for timely communications, and the BlackBerry is fantastic at managing both. Your BlackBerry is very flexible and allows you to change your calendar views according to your needs. You can choose different calendar views by using the menu at the bottom of the calendar screen. Here are the different views you can choose from.

1. Day View

The Day view allows you to quickly see all of the appointments (and tasks if you choose to display them on your calendar) by hour for the date of your choosing. This is the default view, and is a great way to find available time in your schedule.  

 

2. Week View

3. Month View

The Month view gives you an even higher-level view of your schedule for the month you have chosen. While it is not ideal for picking specific dates and times for meetings, it is very useful for long-range planning. 

 

4. Agenda View
