In this article, we will let you know the process of making a personalised 2026 table calendar using your smartphone; prior graphic design knowledge is not needed.
Step 1: Determine the type of your calendar
Before you begin designing, determine the style you would prefer:
- Simple and clean
- Photo-based
- Festival highlight calendar: Indian holidays, moon phases, bank holidays.
- Work planner with notes
- Business-branded table calendar
- This makes it easier for Gemini Nano to generate the right structure.

Gemini Nano works offline on supported Android smartphones.
Once enabled in settings:
- Open Google Messages or the system-level writing tools.

Step 3: Create a calendar template, based on the prompt
Ask Gemini Nano to produce a 2026 monthly layout.

- "Create a business-themed 2026 calendar layout with my brand colours: blue and gold.
- Gemini Nano will produce a formatted layout that you can export or copy into Google Docs.
Step 4: Add Personal Photos or Themes
If you want photos:
- Select 12 high-quality images: family, pets, travel, nature.
- Ask Gemini Nano:
- “Place this photo as the background for January 2026 in my table calendar.
- You can do this for all months.
Step 5: Adding Indian Holidays and Important Dates

Step 6: Export and Print

Tips for Better Outcomes
- Use high-contrast, bright images for clarity.
- Keep text minimal and readable.
- Apply the same theme to every month; that is, colour and font style.
- Ask Gemini Nano to resize, simplify, or make it aesthetic.
- Avoid clutter – desk calendars look best when simple.
