  3. When the Teamleader Focus calendar items are synced to Outlook, you'll need to set up a reminder manually for each item. If you have the Outlook Calendar app on your phone, you’ll receive the same notifications.

  2. Click on the arrows in the top right corner to synchronize these items manually to iCloud Calendar, or wait for the automatic synchronization.
