Android BroadcastReceiver calendar host: com.android.calendar vs com.google.android.calendar

Question

After looking a bit, I noticed that there are 2 possible hosts on the Android calendar.
The first is com.android.calendar and the other is com.google.android.calendar .
I am pretty sure that this reflects the new offline calendar released by Google last year, but apart from that I don't know. What is the difference? When should you use the first and the other?

Answer 1

• com.android.calendar - AOSP calendar.
• com.google.android.calendar - Google calendar.

If you want to interact with your phone’s calendar, you’re interested in the content provider from the past.
