Why didn't my calendar transfer to my new device?

Hi everyone. So I got the Droid Turbo 2 today. I was assured that my calendar would transfer to new phone. So I get home and it did not. I use Digical. It's weird..there are entries but they are old entries that I had deleted. It's almost like it reverted to a previous version. It is not on the G Cloud or Google calendar. This is a huge problem..or rather will be if I've lost my whole personal calendar. Thank you very much for any help given

It sounds like you weren't saving your calendar events to your Gmail account. If they were only on the phone, then there is very few options to transfer the information. One, manually transfer by recreating them on the new phone. Two, checking the third party application for a backup option and using it to transfer the information. Three, checking the Play Store for calendar backup and restore application compatible with the calendar application you use.

In the future, I would suggest you create your events so they are saved to your Gmail account so it can sync across all your devices. For example I can create an appointment on my active phone and the next time one of my five other devices syncs with my Google account the event is displayed on that device.
