Can I block Outlook time without seeing it on iCal?

Post date: 2021-01-26 03:49:35

I have several time periods set up on my work calendar (Outlook) as "out of office" so nobody schedules meetings during those periods. I also sync my work calendar as one of many calendars on my iphone (iCal) and want to ONLY see work meeting that are actual meetings when on my phone.

I'm currently WFH with a 6 month old and blocked off times that I'm most likely going to need to tend to her undisturbed from my work calendar (i.e. nursing). This is for courtesy so meetings get scheduled outside of those hours.

I use my personal phone for work as well, so my iCal is busy with my work schedule, husband's calendar, personal events, sports games, etc. I really would like to find a way to ONLY show actual work meetings on there. I don't need to see the times I've blocked off - that's only for coworkers. I want to see my actual work schedule so when I'm tending to the baby and need to see if anything's coming up, I can easily see it.

So far I've been switching between just having everything on there (annoying) or turning off my work calendar and opening the Teams app to see it at a glance. It still has my blocked-off times, but it's easier to visualize when it's not cluttered with the other calendars.

I am perfectly happy to still see everything when on my computer.
