Here are several BlackBerry 10 calendar tips to increase your productivity and organization. Change your calendar display options Personalize your calendar by customizing the following settings that affect the default calendar view, the first day of the week and more. Make sure you try out my favorite feature, Growing Numbers, if you don’t have the option enabled already.

Bonus – Subscribe to a public calendar If you are using BlackBerry 10 OS version 10.2 or later, you have the ability to subscribe to public calendars using the following steps:
