Duplicate event
Would be nice to have an option to duplicate an existing event with small changes.
Use case: irregularly recurring events that need to be scheduled one at a time(e.g. barber, massage, dentist visits)

I would prefer to have a list of templated events when clicking on a date. For example, clicking on April 12 would show a list of templates to insert like Doctor, Dentist, Vacation, etc. That way I can control what's in the template (a separate view to create and edit templates) and then just need to click the date to add the event.

This feature is a game changer, now the usability of the callendar for recurring events that doesn`t has the same schedule is a big pain.

More than 3 years later and the Android app doesn't support yet the simple duplicate feature...!

Please add this feature to iOS. And as mentioned below, Shortcuts for copy and paste would be really appreciated, either alt-drag as other suggested or ctrl+c / ctrl+v on Web browser.

In Proton Calendar in Android we cannot copy an existing event as we can from the web browser. Some recurring events like doctor's appointments, friends get-togethers and others may contain a good deal of information. The ability to make a copy of that existing event and paste it to a new time and date would be extremely useful.

I use this functionality all the time. It would be a great improvement to the UX.

Events can be duplicated on the web, but not in the Android client. this is quite important. I can't make duplicate events while out and about.

As with other calendars I use, I just start typing the title of the similar event e.g., blood test, and the app suggests the details (title, location, travel time (another missing feature), etc.) from a previous entry with the same title to create a duplicate. I can then amend the time and date as required for the new event. A button could also be added to an existing event to "create duplicate" (different people do things in different ways).
This is one of a number of features that is currently preventing me from switching to use Proton Calendar.

This is a critical feature for productivity.

I came here to ask for the same feature:
It would also be time-saving to be able to hover the mouse over the start or end time of an event and be able to drag the top or bottom of this event to increase its duration automatically.

It would be very useful to be able to duplicate/copy an event, especially if the event has already a lot of configuration (description, notifications, etc.)

It's basic functionality that I'm shocked is not included already.

copy and paste a necessity! Pretty much a deal breaker. Everything else looks good.

alt drag for copy and paste a deal breaker. Need to have this capability.
