Anyone have any idea why if you go to save an appointment/meeting/even on your iCloud Calendar from your iOS device, the Alert options for All Day are:
On day of event (9 AM)
1 day before (9 AM)
2 days before (9 AM)
1 week before

... yet, if you go to create an appointment/meeting/event on your iCloud Calendar from www.icloud.com, the Alert options for All Day are:
1 day before
2 days before

Why can't you select "On day of event (9 AM)" from the website?! I hate this more than anything!!!

I'm actually not a fan of Google's calendar.

It does what you're asking in the OP.

But I have syncing issues whenever I use Google's calendar. Hence why I'm not a fan. I prefer the ability to sync between all of my devices and put up with this annoyance, than change to Google and then deal with some syncing issues.

I have no issues with Google Calendar.

Hope this helps.

It syncs a heck of a lot better than iCloud to an Android or Windows device.

Oh wait, Apple doesn't extend their ecosystems outside of their walled garden like others do.

Smart move on their part.


My Google maps alerts went off today for two upcoming appointments....flawless.

Hoping this continues to help.
