How to use the calendar email with Apple Calendar
To have calendar events appear automatically in your native Calendar app on iOS, you can add the account that is receiving the emails containing the event .ics files to your phone.
To do this, you’ll need to add the account in Settings.
- Open Settings and navigate to Calendar > Accounts
- Add a new account to your device by selecting the account provider (e.g., Google)
- Follow the instructions for your provider to add the account
- When prompted, enable the Calendar option for the account
- Open Calendar and navigate to the Calendars list
- Make sure the new account is checked so that events show on your calendar
Note: You can customize how often you want to sync calendar data between the account and your phone in Settings > Calendar > Accounts > Fetch New Data
