How to navigate your calendar in Morgen

In this guide, we'll show how to navigate your calendars in the Morgen desktop app, and how to quickly create events in the week calendar view.

Before you begin

If you haven't already, install Morgen on your Mac, Linux or Windows PC.

In this menu, you can switch between the available calendar views: Day, Week, Month, Agenda... Keyboard shortcuts for quickly switching views are listed next to each view button in the menu.

2. Current, Previous and Next controls

Click on the arrows to jump to the previous or next month, week or day, depending on your current calendar view. Click on  to jump back to the current.
