Shared calendar not showing up on kid’s ipad

I have family sharing with my kids, and I am trying to share our calendar. Request was sent and accepted via iCloud on safari. But the calendar still will not populate on my child’s iPad Calendar app. I’ve removed and re-shared several times. Each time I’m able to accept the invitation and can view the shared calendar via iCloud on Safari, but not on the Calendar app.

Hi Jrmoore141-141,


There's a few things we'd recommend checking if a share calendar isn't showing up as expected.


  1. Ensure on your child's iPad they're signed into the correct Apple ID under Settings > Calendar
  2. Ensure the shared calendar is enabled in the Calendars app. When opening calendar and looking at the dates you'll see "Calendars" at the bottom in the middle. Ensure that the shared calendar shows up there and is checked.


If the calendar still won't share properly, we'd advise contacting Apple Support to take a closer look at the issue.


Take care.
