iCloud and Yahoo

New iCloud and Yahoo app-password connections are temporarily paused. CalKeep does not currently ask new users to hand an app-specific password to a flow that cannot complete the same reviewed source setup and recovery contract as Google and Microsoft.

Current options​

If your provider or organization gives you a private ICS or webcal calendar link, add it as a read-only subscribed calendar. Review the exact source before saving it and protect the URL like a password: anyone who has a private feed URL may be able to read its calendar snapshot.

An administrator-controlled workplace may require this route when OAuth or third-party applications are restricted. A subscribed link is read-only; CalKeep does not write changes back through it.

File snapshot​

You can import an ICS calendar snapshot. File import copies the reviewed events into CalKeep; it is not a live provider connection and does not create a background writeback path.

Existing legacy connections​

An iCloud or Yahoo connection created before the pause may continue its current CalDAV polling behavior while its stored credential remains valid. Existing connections do not use the Google/Microsoft Refresh provider access flow. If a legacy app-specific password expires or is revoked, CalKeep may be unable to refresh that connection until current onboarding is re-enabled.

What is not available during the pause​

  • New iCloud or Yahoo app-password onboarding.
  • A promise of immediate two-way synchronization for a new account.
  • Google/Microsoft-style independent Contacts or Tasks discovery.

Use Help & Support if you need help choosing between a read-only link and an ICS snapshot. Do not send an app-specific password, private feed URL, or export file to support.
