I’ve recently started getting spam calendar events on my iPad mini 4, software version 15.7.9
I tried to delete the calendar which was not created by me, but it will only let me hide it - no delete option was given when I pressed the “i”.
How can I delete the calendar? Do I need to do a factory reset?
