The Exams page gives you a dedicated calendar for every upcoming test, final, and assessment. Instead of scattering exam dates across sticky notes, a planner, and your phone, you get one place inside Clamly where your schedule is always visible — and optionally synchronized with Google Calendar so nothing slips through the cracks.

​
Adding an Exam

1

Open the Exams Page

Click Exams in the sidebar. The calendar view opens, showing the current month with any existing exams marked.
2

Create a New Exam

Click the + Add Exam button or click directly on a date in the calendar. The exam creation form opens.
3

Fill in the Details

Enter the following information:
  • Exam name — for example, “Organic Chemistry Midterm”
  • Subject — helps you filter and color-code exams by course
  • Date and time — the exact date and start time of the exam
4

Save the Exam

Click Save. The exam appears on the calendar and in the upcoming exams list. If you have Google Calendar sync enabled, it will also appear there automatically.

​
Viewing Upcoming Exams

The Exams page offers two ways to look at your schedule:

Calendar View

See all your exams plotted on a monthly calendar. Spot busy weeks instantly and get a visual sense of how your exams cluster together.

List View

See all upcoming exams sorted chronologically. Each entry shows the exam name, subject, and the number of days remaining — useful when you want to prioritize study time.
Add exams at the start of every semester as soon as you receive your course syllabus. Seeing the full picture early helps you plan backwards and avoid last-minute cramming.

​
Google Calendar Sync

Clamly supports two-way sync with Google Calendar, meaning changes in either app stay in sync automatically.

​
What Two-Way Sync Means

Clamly → Google Calendar

Exams you add in Clamly appear automatically in your Google Calendar. You’ll see them alongside your other events without any manual export.

Google Calendar → Clamly

Events from your Google Calendar can sync back into Clamly’s Exams page, so existing academic events you’ve already entered in Google are visible here too.

​
Connecting Google Calendar

Google Calendar sync is set up from the Exams page — the option is not available from the general account settings.
1

Open the Exams Page

Navigate to Exams in the sidebar if you’re not already there.
2

Open Sync Settings

Look for the Connect Google Calendar button or the sync settings icon near the top of the page.
3

Authorize Clamly

You’ll be redirected to Google’s OAuth authorization screen. Sign in to the Google account you want to sync and grant Clamly the requested calendar permissions.
4

Confirm Sync is Active

After authorization, you’ll return to the Exams page with a confirmation that Google Calendar is connected. Your exams will begin syncing immediately.
For complete step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting, see the Google Calendar Integration page.

​
Disconnecting Google Calendar

1

Go to the Exams Page

Navigate to Exams in the sidebar.
2

Open Sync Settings

Click the sync settings icon or the Manage Sync option near the Google Calendar status indicator.
3

Disconnect

Click Disconnect Google Calendar and confirm. Existing exams in Clamly are not deleted, but they will no longer sync to or from Google Calendar.
Disconnecting sync does not remove events from your Google Calendar that were previously synced. You’ll need to delete those manually from Google Calendar if you no longer want them there.
