Event List

I am trying to figure out how to add an event list to my app. I would like one of the screens to be a list of events that the user can then click on and add to their calendar. The issue I am having is how to update the event list without the user having to update their application every time I have an event added to the calendar? Any help is appreciated. I have until January 5th to have an iPhone and similar Android app developed. David

To do "silent updates" for your User, you will want to repress the notifications and alerts that "your app has updated data". Follow these instructions: https://www.buzztouch.com/files/howtos/AutomaticRefresh.pdf For the list of Events, you will probably be using a Menu List plugin that is getting its contents from the BuzzTouch JSON Configuration file. To add the Event onto the User's calendar on his device, you will need to develop a custom plugin. Unless there is already a Calendar plugin?
