Question 1

How to connect Microsoft Email + Calendar to Memtime?

Accepted Answer

Simply select Microsoft Email + Calendar from the list of available integrations and authenticate your account to import meetings and emails into Memtime. From there, you can check automatically recorded activities, create time entries, and enrich your Outlook activities. In case you’d like a step-by-step walkthrough, you can find detailed instructions in our knowledge base article for this integration.

Question 2

What data is synced between Memtime and Microsoft Email + Calendar, and how often?

Accepted Answer

Memtime automatically syncs items from Microsoft Calendar, such as meetings or events, and brings email details into your tracked activities. Emails sent from Outlook on your phone are also synced. They show up in the Memory Aid, ready for you to turn into time entries. All syncing happens automatically, so there’s no need to recreate data or manage things in two places.

Question 3

How many Microsoft Calendars can I connect to Memtime?

Accepted Answer

There’s no limit to the number of Microsoft Calendars you can connect to Memtime. As long as you can authenticate each, you can add an unlimited number of personal, work, and even shared calendars to see your scheduled events in Memtime.

Question 4

Can I connect shared Microsoft calendars?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can mirror events from your shared calendars the same way you pull events from your regular Microsoft Calendars. You’ll see your appointments and notes in Memtime next to automatically captured activities.

Question 5

How can I track my in-person meetings?

Accepted Answer

Memtime is a desktop app that captures computer activities, e.g. your time in programs, files, documents, browser tabs, etc. However, it can also capture your offline times, i.e. the time you’re away from your computer. Thanks to the integration with Microsoft Email + Calendar, you can see your times of absence next to your calendar appointments and emails. Rename offline times and log them as time entries if you need to track time spent in in-person meetings and other offline events.

Question 6

Can I see my Microsoft Email + Calendar events across devices?

Accepted Answer

While you can manage the same Microsoft Calendar and emails on multiple devices, Memtime shows your synced events in the Memory Aid on the device where Memtime is installed. E.g. If you use Memtime on your work PC with your calendar connected, you can create calendar events on any device you use with this Microsoft account, and they’ll appear in the Calendar column of the Memory Aid on your work PC. Emails you send from Outlook on your phone will also appear there, in the Mobile Emails column.

Question 7

How are events and emails from Microsoft Email + Calendar shown in Memtime?

Accepted Answer

Events and emails are displayed in the Memory Aid in separate columns. Calendar events from your selected Microsoft calendars appear in the Calendar column, and emails sent from Outlook on your phone appear in the Mobile Emails column. If you enable Read email content, email details are added to your Outlook activities in the Captured Activities column, and you can see them by hovering over the activity. Memtime simply brings in your existing events and emails, so you can drag them into your time entries without needing to rebuild anything.

Question 8

What if I don’t use Microsoft Calendar?

Accepted Answer

Memtime integrates with many calendar apps, such as Google Calendar, macOS Calendar, and iCloud Calendar. You can connect any calendar app you’re using.

Question 9

Who can see my calendar events and email details imported to Memtime?

Accepted Answer

When you connect your Microsoft Email + Calendar to Memtime, your events and emails remain private to you. Nobody else can see your scheduled appointments or your email details.
