Biweekly or Custom Occurrences

[knuckles245]

The Calendar has different options available when it comes to setting when an event occurs, but there is one that I personally feel should be added... Biweekly Occurrences. I tend to put everything that goes on in my life into my calendar from work schedule, paydays, social events, favorite movie release dates, etc. There are times when an event of any kind is added to your calendar, that biweekly occurrence would be really helpful.

I provided a link to the Windows Phone Uservoice to vote this in, it's not mine so I am just sharing it with everyone who may feel the same.

UPDATE: I use the Windows Live Mail for Desktop when I am on my laptop, easy to use, I love it. I was fiddling around with my folders and organizing some things when it popped in my head to fiddle around with the calendar section. I obviously noticed, as usual, my calendar synced with what's already on my phone. I went and added an event and immediately went to the Occurrences area and noticed that there is an option for biweekly and custom occurrences. It works.

It's a good idea.

I really miss the power from the Calendar available in the good ole Windows Mobile.

I have also struggled with this (MAJOR) limitation, and through excessive research (install -> trial -> deinstall) have found ONE product which actually offers custom recurrences!
A liitle tool called "Calendar +"
windowsphone.com/en-au/store/app/calendar/f8e320f0-59ed-4530-ac1e-9fb0b5f7728f

Only minus is that the live tiles don't seem to be updating themselves. Still worth it though.

Hope you enjoy.

This option also works fine on outlook.com which is where I set up any appointments that might have non-standard re-occurrences .
