Sync iphone Calendar

Hi,

For better or for worse I would like to sync my iphone calendar with my wife's iphone.  My iphone sync's with my work e-mail exchange account and my wife does not sync her calendar with anything.

Is there an app
Does icloud provide for this
Any help would be appreciated

Thanks Jim

What email tool are you syncing with?  iPhone syncs with Outlook (Exchange or otherwise), but not Windows Live Mail, for example. .... Thinkpads_User

I sync using exchange my wife doesn't sync she just manually enters calendar events into her phone
I do not think that will work. If your wife syncs back to some calendar tool on your home computer (say Outlook) and you sync to that, your Exchange stuff will be lost.

So far as I know, you cannot sync one phone to two different sources. One will override and wipe the other out.

I have two iPhones at home and must take care not to sync to the wrong source. ... Thinkpads_User
Rather than syncing is there a way to send an event?

Good ideas. I think I can also do this using iCloud
Thank you and good luck going forward. .... Thinkpads_User
Just make sure that before you sync with ANY cloud-based calendar for the first time, you have backed up your calendar (and her calendar), so that, if you make a mistake and sync in the wrong direction, you won't wipe out your phone's calendar with the initially-empty cloud calendar.
Thanks for the tip!
