Oppo: Set Colors for Calendar Tasks and Events

If every entry in your Oppo Calendar looks the same, it gets hard to spot a birthday among work meetings or holidays at a glance. Tasks, events, birthdays and separate accounts can all be marked with their own color, but the option is buried a few taps deep in the calendar settings. Once assigned, the color stays attached to that category across every view.

Assign Colors to Calendar Categories auf Oppo

Oppo Calendar groups entries into categories such as tasks, events, holidays, birthdays and any linked accounts. Without color coding, all of these show up in the same shade, which makes a quick overview difficult once the calendar fills up.

ColorOS lets you assign an individual color to each category from the calendar app itself. This setting lives inside the calendar menu, not in the general system settings, since it only affects how entries are displayed inside the app.

To change it, open Tap on CalendarOpen the MenuTap on SettingsChoose an OptionTap on ColorSet a Color. Repeat these steps for every category you want to highlight differently.

The color only changes how the entry looks in the calendar grid and list views. It does not change notifications, reminders or how the entry syncs with a connected account.

If entries from a synced account (for example a work calendar) do not accept a custom color, the color may be controlled by that account's own settings instead of ColorOS. In that case, check the account's calendar settings on the service side rather than repeating the steps above.

Frequently asked questions

No. The color set through Tap on Color only affects how the entry appears inside the calendar app. Notification banners keep the standard system style.
