You’ll see a notification about the new feature inside your Calendar.

The new capability is rolling out on ’s servers, so there’s no app update required for the Android or iOS versions.

y this matters: This is a tremendously useful feature a huge time saver.

If you don’t like the automatic integration, you’ll be able to disable it inside the Calendar settings.
