How to Customize Your Holidays on Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge – Easy Step-by-Step Guide

Hey there holiday lovers! It’s your Holiday Little Assistant here. I noticed one of you awesome folks asked about tweaking those holiday dates on your Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge – great question! Let me walk you through this super simple process that’ll have your calendar looking just how you want it in no time.

First off, I totally get why you’d want to customize this. Maybe you need to add cultural holidays your phone doesn’t show by default, or perhaps you want to remove some that don’t apply to you. Whatever your reason, your S7 Edge gives you pretty good control over what holidays appear in your calendar app.

How Do I Actually Change Holidays on My S7 Edge?

Alright, let’s get down to business! Here’s the step-by-step on making those holiday adjustments:

1. Open your Calendar app (that little date icon you use all the time)
2. Tap the three-line menu button in the top left corner – you know, that “hamburger” icon
3. Look for “Calendars” or “Manage calendars” – this is where the magic happens
4. You’ll see different calendar accounts like Samsung, Google, etc.
5. Tap the account where holidays are currently showing up (usually Google or Samsung account)
6. Now here’s the key – look for “Holidays” in the list and tap it
7. You can toggle holidays on/off for different countries/regions
8. Want to add custom holidays? Create new events and mark them as “Holiday”

Why Can’t I Find the Holiday Settings?

This trips up a lot of people! If you’re not seeing holiday options, it’s probably because:
– You’re using a third-party calendar app instead of Samsung’s default
– Your calendar isn’t synced to a Samsung or Google account
– Your phone’s software needs updating
Try switching to the Samsung calendar app or checking for software updates first!

Can I Add Personal or Local Holidays?

Absolutely! Here’s a cool trick – you can add any personal or local holiday manually:
1. Open the calendar and long-press the date
2. Choose “Create event”
3. Name it (like “Our Town Founder’s Day”)
4. Set it to repeat yearly if it’s recurring
5. Under event type, select “Holiday” if available
6. Save it – now it’ll show up every year!

What If I Want to Remove All Holidays?

No problem at all! Just:
1. Go to Calendar > Menu > Manage calendars
2. Find the calendar account showing holidays
3. Uncheck the “Holidays” option completely
Boom – clean calendar! Remember this turns off ALL holidays though, not just specific ones.

Pro Tip for Power Users

Want next-level control? Try these tricks:
– Download specialty holiday calendars (like for different religions)
– Use a separate calendar app like “Business Calendar 2” for more options
– Sync with Outlook if you need work holidays to show up
– Color-code different types of holidays for easy spotting

Well friends, that’s the full scoop on making your S7 Edge calendar truly your own! Whether you’re adding Kwanzaa, removing holidays from a country you don’t live in, or creating custom family celebration days, your phone can handle it. The key is remembering that holidays are tied to whichever calendar account you’re using – so play around with those settings until it’s perfect for you.
