My wife and I have S7 phones. We share the same AOL address, but have different gmail addresses. We have listed all the addresses on our respective phones, but now our calendar events fail to sync. Suggestions??

Are calendars supposed to sync? I guess we have not tried sharing on our two Note 5 SmartPhones.

Yes. There is an option to turn OFF sync.

AOL? Is that still around? The next thing you'll probably tell me is that Earthlink is still out there.

Yeah, throw the phones away and buy a calendar.

I would point out Gmail and Android are both owned by Google.

I suggest switching to Google Calendar, which will sync perfectly with Android phones.
