The iPhone Blog: How to create, edit, and delete Calendar events on your iPhone or iPad

The built-in iOS Calendar app on the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch provides a great way to keep track of all your appointments and events. While it's faster to use Siri to create basic events, if you need more precise control, or if you want to edit existing event details, you can also do it the old fashioned way -- by tapping your way through the Calendar app's multitouch interface!

   4. Tap Time Zone if you want to change the event or appointment to a different time zone
6. Tap Repeat if you want your event or appointment to reoccur. Repeat options include every day, every week, every 2 weeks, every month, or every year.
