iOS 15.1 Calendar issues for iPhone

Apple really needs to address any changes that were made to the calendar with this latest update since nothing was documented in the iOS notes on calendar related code changes….because something made it through with this Minor Update!!!

They have addressed it in iOS 15.2. Have you updated?

I thought I checked the other day. Checked when I saw your post and it was there. And yes, 15.2 fixed my issue. Much appreciated!!

I've been experiencing this issue for a while now and its just unbearable. Being in management, I rely HEAVILY on my email and calendars. Literally the only solution I've found was to install and use the outlook app. Not ideal being I thoroughly enjoy everything I have being in one place, but at least I can get to and see my appointments as needed. Fingers crossed an update comes soon.

The new update that came out this week fixed it. Finally.

Glad it was resolved!

I have the exact same problem too and it appears to be linked to the MS Exchange account. When I delete the Exchange account, my iCloud and gmail calendars work fine. Exchange is the culprit. What is the fix, please?

A user posted this workaround (switch calendar view) https://discussions.apple.com/thread/253346092?answerId=256279078022#256279078022

Hello Jerrylmusic,

Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities, and we'll be happy to help in any way we can. We understand you're having issues with your calendar events after updating to iOS 15.1. Try the steps listed here to see if they resolve the issue: If your iCloud Contacts, Calendars, or Reminders won’t sync

If they don't, we recommend reaching out to Apple directly to further investigate here: Get Support

We hope this helps.

Cheers!

That’s wonderful news for you but it doesn’t mean many many other people aren’t having this issue. Ever since I did the most recent update. Never an issue before.

I never said that other people weren't having a problem. I think you've missed my point which is that, because it seems to be a fairly small percentage of users, it's not going to be high up on Apple's priority list and it's going to be hard to figure out. That makes it all the more crucial that you submit feedback to Apple. The more data they have, the more likely there will be some movement.

And It’s not a matter of what type of email. It’s an issue with the calendar app itself. When you change to a new date it shows the wrong dates items regardless of what account your viewing. You have to continually close it out and reopen.

Some people seem to be having an issue with the calendar if they have an Exchange account on their phones. So, yes, for some people the type of account matters. I have an Exchange account and have no problems. This is an example of why it's going to be hard to figure out the source of the problem. If everyone (or even most people) who have Exchange (or Gmail or Yahoo or whatever) accounts on their phones were having this problem, that would be an obvious place to start. But that's not what's happening.

So, submit feedback. Encourage anyone else you know who's having the same problem to do likewise.

Awful Awful Awful. I work from my phone with heavy calendar work and this has been a HUGE issue for my productivity. Having to constantly close it out- re open every time I need to look at a new day.

GET IT TOGETHER APPLE! Its 2021... and people are working from their phones more then ever -- this is a HUGE STUMBLE!

This is a user-to-user forum. Apple's participation here is minimal. They don't read here for suggestions or feedback. You can, however, let them know your thoughts here:

Product Feedback - Apple

For the record, I have both an Exchange and a Gmail account and have no calendar issues. Unfortunately for those people who do have this problem, it doesn't seem to affect all (or even most people). This means it's going to be a lot more difficult for Apple (and/or MS) to figure out where the problem lies.

Everybody I know with an iPhone is experiencing this issue. It’s gotta be one of the worst iPhone bugs in years. I’d like to know if any third party calendar apps are alternatives for a permanent migration from iCal.

Have you updated to iOS 15.2?

@apple when are you fixing this it’s been weeks now - only solution currently is to use the outlook app which is not a long term option

Then yours is probably a different issue.

Other calendar apps that have been recommended are Outlook, WeekCal and Fantastical. But there are lots more.
