Decrease sync delay
The sync of changes has a huge delay. Shared calendar can take hours, sync in mobile app can take minutes. This should be both near real time.

Totally agree. Either sync MUCH more often or allow force sync.
I'm trying to move my digital life away from Google and Microsoft, but there is obviously an interim period when you still have to use previous and new provider in parallel. Especially in this situation, the huge delay in syncing really sucks. And it is unrealistic to assume that I'll ever be totally Google-free, so it would be helpful if i could rely on Proton to show me the latest state of my calendar and not some historic view of it ...

je viens de voir 8h sur la synchro d'un agenda partagé sur le site officiel c'est beaucoup beaucoup trop !
"Also, when you update your calendar, anyone with access to your calendar will see the updates you make to it. It may take up to eight hours before they see the changes. "

I think we also need a way to force sync to happen. Most programs have a force sync option. if callendar does, i haven't found it yet

One solution might be to keep the same default sync time but add a button to force sync on the fly. This reduces server load (and therefore costs).

Commenting 7/29/2024. I agree with all the comments I've seen on this thread. This is critical.

An option to set a sync interval would be ideal. Entries that change for work take an extremely long time and are sometimes not successfully synced even after 8 hours. More information about the status and how many elements were transferred would be also helpful.

Comment to see if we can resurface this. Agree with all previous comments, without timely refresh/sync, it's defeating the purpose of integrating external calendar (Another major painpoint being unable to two-way sync, which is another idea in this forum)

Assuming this is for linking external calendars. I completely agree that this process takes WAY too long. I often add meetings to a linked Outlook in the morning and they don't show up until the evening or next day in my Proton Calendar! Makes it very hard to daily drive with Proton.

please decrease the delay or add a sync now button

RenRosemary commented
Yes please! Anything above 30 minutes is unreasonable. At a minimum there's no reason a "sync now" button can't exist.

David commented
Yes please! Add a "sync now" button *and* poll for updates more frequently. I don't know if it'd decrease the infrastructure load, but if so, where I really need rapid syncing is in only for the current day and the week ahead, to know if my immediate-future schedule has changed!

Or/And, add a refresh button.

Fully supporting this. At every 30 or 60 minutes would be nice.
