iOS 15.1 Calendar app is laggy and unreliable

When swiping between days, data often shows up as stale (events on the wrong day, or events at the "right" time but with wrong title).


Keeping the same day view open for up to 10 seconds seems to correct the issue (temporarily). This appears to be some kind of caching bug.


(This was *not* an issue in 15.0, 15.0.1 or 15.0.2. I have one MS Exchange calendar and three Google calendars.)

Same here with an exchange account. As soon as I remove the company exchange account, it works fine (iCloud only in calendar).


Removing and re-adding exchange account does not help.

I Have the same issue with both outlook and goupwise accounts in my icalendar, but not in my Mac calendar. I have tried a lot and now have found a work around (not fix) that seems to work for my icalendar. When I disable all non icloud accounts in my the calendar app on my mac, then suddenly all accounts on the the icalendar on my iphone and ipad synchronize at proper speed. Until Apple comes with a real fix, I am prepared to work without the outlook accounts in the calendar on my Mac as long as the calendar on the iphone remains speedy.

I am having the same issue with the syncing of calendars across devices. I spent 3 hours and 23 minutes with Apple Support on this issue. After searching the internet, I discovered this is NOT an isolated issues (which is what they made it sound like). Both senior advisors stated they did not see this as an issue. I really don’t understand how they did not know this when several internet sites stated users were having this issue. Why have me conducting the same thing over and over when you could have simply stated we don’t know what is wrong. Or We have learned our attempt to resolve this issue is not working, but our engineers are looking for a resolution.


Then to add to this, they closed my case with no resolution. This after they disconnected me senior advisor number one. Followed by snipe advisor number 2 stating she would call me back. I understand glitches occur with technology but customer service includes transparency and being courteous.

It’s ridiculous. This has been going on since 15.1 was downloaded in my 12 pro max and I just upgraded me and my wife to a 13 pro max and we are both experiencing the same thing. Freeze on calendar cold start, lagging scrolling and launching of an event selection and it almost always starts on our earliest recorded calendar event….for me 2010. This has nothing to do with hardware or linked accounts and should be old news by now….
