Shortcut to specific calendar? or how to view work/personal separately? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently managed to sync my work outlook calendar using MyPhoneExplorer (the only way i could do it dure to corp policy).. so now i have the events on my phone but i dont wnat to display my work calendar in my standard calendar app, so I uncheck it from display. What I'd like , is to have a separate shortcut (or app, or widget) that would show me JUST the work calendar.
So far, every time I try a different app or widget and select the work calendar, it changes it on a global level and so all my apps/widgets will now show only the work calendar. is there a way to separate these?

Change default action of a notification, ie calendar?

Is there a way to change the action of selecting a notification - ie a Calendar notification in the status bar - if I select it, it will open the item in the Android Calendar - however I would like it to open a different calendar app - Business Calendar in this case.
Thanks,
Nope. You'll have to disable the default calendar notifications and have the other app notify.

I was afraid of that... yeah the "other" calendar app (Business Calendar) uses the Android Calendar for notifications, and doesn't have it's own notification system. Hopefully the dev will update the app soon.

[Q] Google Calendar Widget planner

I have the Google Calendar planner widget on multiple devices. It only shows items coming up in the next couple of weeks, regardless of how many items are entered in the future. How do I get it to show, and scroll beyond this to show all future events?
Is there a better app widget that will sync to my Google calendar?

Widget with Google Reminder

I'm looking for an app with a customizable calendar widget that shows me the Reminder from Google Calendar and not only the main event. Every app I tried (Chronus, Simple Calendar and many more) only shows tasks I created as event, but if I create a Reminder none of the apps shows it. Only Google Calendar widget shows the Reminder, but is really ugly, I want something minimal or at least a bit customizable. Suggestions? Thanks
Me too!!

Google Apps Widgets Only Appearing for Work Profile

I have a work profile set up on my Nexus 5x, Android 8.0.0. When Itry add a widget to my home screen for my google calendar I only get the option to add it for my work profile and not my personal account. I want to add a calendar widget for my personal account.
Am I missing a set to do this? There is only work profile widgets(with the red lock icon) appearing in my widget list.
Nope...I have that problem too. The only way around it, that I've found, is to uninstall the work profile version of Calendar. Then the widget for the non-work Calendar reappears. Put that where you want it. THEN reinstall the work profile calendar. Now put the widget for the work profile calendar where you want it . The two widgets can be side by side. But you can't access the non-work Calendar widget from the widgets menu with the work profile Google calendar installed. (The non-work calendar widget works just fine once you put it on one of your screens).
