iOS disabled calendar still showing alerts

I have a few calendars enabled, one of which is for my work account. I disable the calendar on the weekend and ny days off but I still get alerts.


iOS version: 16.4.1

Handset: iPhone XR


Steps taken:

  • Open the calendar app
  • Click 'Calendars' at the bottom of the screen
  • Disable the specified calendar (the calendar checkmark is no longer ticked)
  • Close the calendar app and verify that said calendar is still disabled


Expected result:

Alerts for this calendar do not occur until the calendar is re-enabled


Actual result:

Alerts for this calendar continue to occur without re-enabling said calendar

The steps taken by you will only stop the display of events on that Calendar.


To stop the alert you need to disable the Calendar from the Account.


Settings > Calendar > Accounts > [Select the Account] > Calendar [Disable]
