A calendar application on a communication device generates a user interface that allows a user to interact with a representation of a calendar event. The calendar application detects a user configuration input indicative of how to control the communication device, in responding to a real-time communication event, during the calendar event. When the real-time communication event is detected during the calendar event, the calendar application controls the communication device based upon the configuration input.
